@szkifi

I measured about 175 cm for the printer to powerbrick cable.

@cashew92ftw

Thank you kindly. That's more than enough for even cable managing the thing.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

IT'S HERE!  FedEx just delivered it.  I'll have to wait until after work to open it though.  Mine was wrapped in white protective shipping plastic.

Ordered Prusa Mini+ (pre-assembled) Mars 5th 2021 ... Shipped Mars 22nd (I know, i'm lucky)

Mini+ is here since 2 days (France), and prints 24/24.

The print quality is amazing.

I love this "tiny" printer (compared to my Big Sidewinder X1)

Congrats, this fills me up with some hope, ordered 15th of march. Maybe they managed to reduce the lead time. Sadly, the shipping table wasn't updated for 19 days, so it's hard to guess when I could expect shipping.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

While i await my mini to arrive, ive been researching lots of stuff and i notice quite a few pic of minis sitting on concrete tiles/ paving slab? any particular reason? 

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

@eirlink

Yes, to give it a very solid base so it can't shake the table.  I spray painted one this weekend and have it outside drying, but my table is so solid it doesn't wiggle.  I'll use it for a base anyway (since I already painted it).  I also already have rubber pads for the 4 corners of the slab.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Just a quick heads up:
Ordered my Mini+ Kit on the 27th of December.
Had the shipping confirmation this morning. (29|03|2021).
That matches the 14 weeks period that Prusa announced.

Curious about how long it will take from Prague to my location in the northwest of germany...

Ordered Mini Kit February 2nd, 2021; Checked on it today - will ship during the 4th week in May (17 weeks).  Kits are taking a lot longer then pre-assembled.  Shipping to USA.  Patience... 😩 

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

There's an update on shipping the pre-assembled Mini+:

Previous dates looks like stayed the same.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

I am another one from the end-of-2020-crowd (28.12.2020) and my kit has been shipped today. 😀 
Now it only has to make it from Prague to Nuremberg, but in terms of international logistics that is basically 'round the corner.

Never having had a 3D-printer before I really look forward to messing around with this....

I ordered my Mini+ Kit two days later on Dec 30 but I haven't received a shipping notification yet.  Hoping I get an update this week.  Starting to get excited as this is my first 3D printer.

Interesting that the backorder time for kits just keeps get longer.  They either completely under forecast the popularity of the kits or are having issues getting parts during the pandemic.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Got my kit yesterday ordered 26th yesterday hooray. But my z axis is causing me non stop issues sadly. Z axis keeps binding and making horrible noises and my z layers are smashed together making my prints awful. Sigh.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Yeah - finally... maybe I get my Kit before the easter weekend here in germany - THX prusa 🙂

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

My pre-assembled Mini+ (ordered  march 2nd) arrived yesterday. So excactly 4 weeks  after ordering. I really had a lot of fun building my MK3S, but I did not have the patience to wait 16 weeks for the kit-version of the Mini+. It looks really cool 😎 next to his big brother MK3.

Can't wait to calibrate and do the first print this evening after work! 🤩 

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

My Prusa Mini+ Kit got shipped late last night (Mountain Time) and is on it's way. Ordered on Dec 29th, 2020, and looks like it will be here on Monday.

Little bummed that it won't be here for the weekend, but I am excited to get my first 3D Printer!

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

My Mini arrived last Friday and I put it together Saturday.  I'd never even seen a 3D printer before and had no idea what I wanted to print.  I'm having TONS OF FUN with it and have been printing almost non-stop.  I had a spare raspberry pi and an old web cam so on Tuesday I set up Octoprint.  Now I don't even have to turn around to look at the printer as the web cam is displayed in a tab in my browser.  Prusa made getting started in 3D printing fast and easy.  I'm already thinking of buying another!

@schnoidz

Congrats!  It's very addicting isn't it.  Octoprint is super; have you tried the "PrusaSlicer Thumbnails" and "Preheat Button" plugins?  They are helpful with the Mini.
