My wife has several Delta and XY printers. The deltas are much faster, but they're also much more "fiddly".

- virtualritz 9y agoCould you define "fiddly" in this context, please?
- hexane360 9y agoHarder to calibrate, mostly. In a CoreXY printer you can calibrate the X and Y axes more or less independently. In a delta you have to take several points to get exact values for arm lengths and therefore a solution to the mechanism.
- Animats 9y agoHere's Naomi Wu's delta 3D printer mod. She mounted one on a backpack carrier frame, powered it with batteries, and walked around Shentzen while 3D printing.[1] This one isn't "fiddly" at all. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-ksb-gzfyE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-ksb-gzfyE
