Do I need the M5 or can I get away with the m5c? I really know nothing about it or how much material things need. I just want to make cool things. How much filament did your cardboard cutter require?
I’m not the OP but I went ahead and bought his file and sliced* it and with 20% infill, it will require about 77g of filament. So with one normal spool, you could print 12 of them.
I can only vouch directly for the M5, but looking into the differences, it looks like the M5C would be a solid option. I would miss the onboard camera and the ability to check my prints and get notifications of suspicious issues, but the printer itself is more or less the same otherwise.
Edit: and with the current sale, $200 is a STEAL
I ordered the m5c. I got the printer, 13 lb of material, and some accessories for $339. Can't wait to make some Braille Play-Doh presses.
Nice! Congrats and I hope you enjoy it!
