Well DHL is the worst shipper available. My printer was supposed to be delivered days ago and customer support is useless. I hope everyone else is having less problems.

Watch this:

500km from Prague, five days in the hands of DPD, and no confidence that they will succeed in getting the parcel into the right van.

Follow-up: No change in the online tracking information for over 26 hours.

Oh boy. Mine just arrived in Nürnberg and I hope I'll have a better (and most importantly faster) route from there. Fingers crossed for both of us!

Fingers crossing helped - our Mini finally arrived on Friday, and took up work in the evening.

It had four heat warnings (in which it stalled) during the first layer calibrations, but none happened after firmware upgrade (which was released four hours prior). Some peculiarities need getting used to when coming from a Mk3s, but need to gain some experience with the Mini to rant about them properly.

Thumb drive is the solution?

Update on the broken Mini (Electronics enclosure box).

Printed and replaced the broken part (Mini-z-buttom.stl) , everything else seemed OK.
Installed the 4.0.0 firmware from the USB stick and the self-test failed every time - Check the wires...

Found new firmware version 4.0.1 and installed that - now self-test runs without problems. 🙂 I am printing now...

I am missing MKx long press to lift z axis after a print!

I am sorry for sounding so cliche when it comes to wives (heh I am a female myself), but what about mounting 0.25 mm nozzle to the printer, dedicating it to wife, and pointing to https://www.etsy.com/market/3d_printed_jewelry ? I am not even sure if your wife is into this at all, but maybe she has some friends or colleagues who would appreciate unique piece of jewelry. It could be a start for increasing Wife Acceptance Factor for your new hobby.

I just keep a roll of hot pink and purple on hand and print things out for the girlfriend.  She loves the stuff that I make with the printers.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Funny. Since I live 30mins from Prusa factory, I choose factory pickup instead of 3rd party delivery. I thought, that I can spare some days that way.

I just got email that I can pick it up, but AFAIK they are closed till 27th... So my printer will stay in box for week there.

I will still got it in December, but still 🙂

I have a hunch some if not all 414xx's were shipped... 

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Is Prusa closed today?  Quiet on the shipping sheet.

Probably because people are more concerned with hanging out with their friends and family rather than spend countless hours watching a spreadsheet. Maybe you should do the same? 😀

National holiday unfortunately.

I ordered mine on the 15th, so i won't get it before January i am afraid. 

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

@mreitsma

You ordered on the 15th? I would guess middle to end of January at the current ship rate

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

@k9bub

I'd think they'd be getting to the 15th orders right after the holiday.  they are in the 14th now.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

@brutusboots

Based on the latest spreadsheet they are still in the just beginning or are in the middle of shipping orders from the 13th. I am the first order on the 14th and mine has not shipped.

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Mine was a 13th order, shipped on the 20th and so far has only made it as far as Holland 🤣 

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

Crikee, I will have to wait a few more days.  

RE: Unofficial Prusa Mini Wait Thread

*sigh* I just got mine together and they didn't pack the nuts for the filament holder!
