Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?  

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

I'm in, 6pm on Saturday the 24th. I've got an ultimaker original (lots of upgrades) and a Rostock Max v2, but I'm looking for a non-bowden, multi-material, and higher reliability.

Waiting for it to come has inspired me to tweak both my other printers, both running nicely now.

Wrong printer then... The MMU is a Bowden system.

I placed my order the next day after announcing. November still seems soooo far away......

I am still waiting for upgrades for MK2 and MM kit. Looks that November may be busy month for me.

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

Not to tame your excitement, but I asked support yesterday, MK3's ordered yesterday are expected to be shipped in January.

I ordered nether the less, because I really like the new features!

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

And the MK2.5 upgrade kits are still not available to pre-order...
I fear that the delay will be massive...

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

I was just thinking about the timing of this update...

With Prusa just having caught up with all the back orders of the MK2, Prusa had to do something to keep the current staff on board or lay off a considerable amount of their staff. All of the folks needed to create as many printers a possible to catch up were now only needed to manage the current order pace which is likely not enough to support full capacity as it has in the past. Now, with the announcement of the MK3, the order pace will pick up, back orders will be created, and the current staff will still be needed to go forward. This is probably just as much to release a new printer and features as it is to keep the order pace and company as the same staffing level that it currently has employed.

Not a dig, my MK3 is on order. Just an observation.

I just ordered mine and have no problem keeping people gainfully employed.

Did they provide any more than that? I'm dying here for a shipping schedule.

I ordered mine on 10/3, and I've been counting the days till November. Any kind of information would be much appreciated.

I know I'll get it eventually, but this will be my first printer and I'm having trouble being patient!!

My order was placed on: 09/27/2017 02:25:47.
It's hard to wait.

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

Pjr: Right printer! The mk3 is not Bowden, and I’m looking forward to the short path from the bondtech to the nozzle. Understood that when I print MM it is bowden, but having water soluble support is another big thing on my wish list. Best of both worlds.

I admit I am hopeful that I can switch from single-direct (for flex or other non-Bowden friendly filament) to multi-Bowden (for pva support) without a complete rebuild, but from what I’ve seen of the mk2 mm, it seems doable. I expect MM with Pva support to be my standard config.

Pjr: Right printer!

Yeah, the Mk1 upgraded to Mk2S + MMU is OK too...

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

My order was placed Oct 12, Looking forward to working with a 3d printer for the first time.

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

I ordered on October 7th. I heard from support that the revised shipping date would be December.

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

Hi guys,
Today I ordered my mk3 and I can't wait to start building it. I currently own a Zonestar P802QR2 i3 clone and it is a nice printer to start with but I finally can join the true Prusa Family and I can't be more happy at the moment. I wanted to buy a mk2s for a while but I couldn't so I'm exited to start with the brand new mk3. Can't wait till the shipping starts!

I love all the new features Josef and his team added to there new machine. Amazing stuff for the price we have to pay.

Salute!

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

I order one about a week ago. Now just patiently waiting for it to ship.

For those that ordered with you on the 7th? Or they expect to begin in December now?

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

For those that have preordered, are you charged for the printer when you preorder or when it ships? Thanks

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

Hey today i preordered my MK3 too 🙂
I hope it comes this year 😀

Hi Lance, you are charged immediately...
good thing is, if the final price goes up, you get the early price...

Re: Who Has Pre-Ordered A Mk 3 Then?

Just ordered a MK3, also my first 3D printer, super excited.. I notice it still says on the shop theyre expecting to ship MK3 in November, so it would be a bit dissapointing if theyre giving that message yet actually planning to ship January (as previously mentioned)... fingers crossed for November!!
