Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread  

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Expected to be shipped 10+ days from now (pre-assembled; a few nozzles; couple rolls of filament) ,but surprisingly got a mail that the order has been packed and got a tracking number.

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.

Congrats, happy printing 😀 So you ordered march 15th or later? That would be huge news for me, ordered my pre-assembled on march 16th without anything else.

Expecting my one from April 12th or later.

Ordered March 17th at night, so techically for them it's the March 18th business day.
Strange, but not complaining 😀

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Strange, maybe different colors or something 😀 but it's nice to hear they are slightly ahead.

The "PrusaSlicer Thumbnails" plugin is very nice! Do you happen to know a plugin/method for loading/unloading filament when Octoprint is connected? Right now I have to disconnect Octoprint from the mini, to have the load/unload filament options in the menu on the lcd-screen. When Octoprint is connected, those options are missing from the menu.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Question i ordered 2 Filaments with my Order of my mini. Does any of the Filaments packs come on Spools? or do i have to have some ordered.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

@lorx7

The 24.99 USD PLA Filaments, you can add as bundle, come on spools. The PLA sample doesn't.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

My Mini+ Kit arrived this morning! The downside is that it is sitting behind me at the office, so it's going to be a long day...

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

@lorx7

The filaments come one spools.

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.

Thanks for these suggestions.  I installed them and find them both very useful.

I just ran into this today and checked everywhere I could in Octoprint and didn't find anything about unloading filament.  It would be a very handy plug-in.

I ordered my Mini + Kit on the 29th of December and got the shipping notification last Thursday (01.04.21). Latest news is, that it arrived in Ricany (CZ) on 02.04.21, I guess DPD haven't been working over Easter 😀 Fingers crossed it will be here in western Germany this week! 

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Getting a bit impatient here 😖 counting 13 weeks for my kit now. Might have to crawl under the desk and try to reassemble the old hunk 'o junk thats hiding in the corner. Maybe going to the store for some haribo would help 😊 

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

@j-frank

Yes! I ordered min on jan 4, now I feel a bit more at peace that it will ship soon.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

I ordered my Mini+ Kit on December 30 and I have not received a shipping notice yet.  Was hoping this week given tomorrow is 14 weeks exactly.  I will let everyone know when mine ships.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Maybe due to Easter public holidays everything gets a little bit shifted to the back. I ordered my kit on 3rd January...

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

@greenhalos

There also can be some variability based on what color and what else your ordered with it.  

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

I woke up to some great news!  My Mini+ Kit (order placed on December 30) shipped, was picked up by FedEx in Prague and is on the way to be delivered to Toronto (Canada) this Friday.  It shipped 14 weeks to the day.  Here is what I ordered:

- Original Prusa MINI+ kit - Color : Black and orange, Spring steel sheet : BOTH STEEL SHEETS: Smooth PEI & Textured powder-coated (+30 USD), Filament sensor : Yes (+20 USD), Filament bundle : Prusament PLA sample

- Prusament PLA Prusa Galaxy Black 1kg

I’m very excited and looking forward to the adventure of owning my first printer.  I just hope FedEx doesn’t ding me too bad on duty and clearing charges.
