Selling my modded Ender-3 Pro [Gold Coast].

Firstly, your opinion is just that, your opinion. You don't know me from a bar of soap, so you can surely form your own opinion, but it may not be the right one. I've done my research and I've printed and installed the mods I thought would add some convenience.

Lead screw stabilisers are not necessarily a dud, if installed correctly. Surely, you, an experienced 3d printing guru, would know that.

Direct drive because I can get much higher speeds with not much compromise on quality. Also, very minimal ringing or ghosting.

2 different types of beds - one Creality and one a mirror tile from a glass shop. Not because of adhesion problems (I've got none and no, I don't use glue or hairspray), but because I liked the finish of the glass on the bottom of the print.

BLTouch clone, not because manual levelling is hard, but because tiny differences in bed level are easy to overlook with ABL.

VSlot covers to prevent dust, dirt and other fine particles from sitting in the Vslots. Tool holder to keep the tools with the printer so they're easily accessible when required.

There is nothing wrong with the printer nor the prints that I get from it. I have printed PLA, PLA+ and PETG with zero issues bar mild stringing with PETG. I just want to upgrade to a bigger one, so I'm selling my current one.

Also, you don't need a Raspberry Pi to set your Z offset. It can be done from the printer menu. You also don't need to be a rocket scientist to upgrade or reflash the firmware. You can download a pre-compiled firmware if it is more convenient and then put it on a USB before powering on the printer. It's really that simple.

So, anyway, thanks for your comment, feedback and opinion. I appreciate it.

P.S.: I never printed a buff pikachu.
