What's Your Printer?

This question always seems to come up a decent bit so I figured "why not just make a thread?"

Post your printer(s) you use for props and costumes and if you like them! This is to help newer people figure out what printer they may want for starting their costuming adventure
  1. Printer Name
  2. Bed size
  3. What you've printed on it
Im pretty lucky to have struck a deal with a local airport that ended with me getting a creality k2 max for my troubles...so im printing on a 350x350x350 bed with great accuracy and speed...I finished my suit in about a month of solid printing, with only 3 reprints... Costed about 100 in filament, just shy of 10 rolls. its a pricey printer, but the k1 max is a little more affordable and can do basically the same.
 
I'm currently using a Bambu P1S, bought at the start of Jan this year, a week before they announced their firmware changes (though admittedly, this doesn't really affect me, I totally understand why people who had a preference for certain slicers were pretty pissed about it though). Print size of 256 x 256 x 256, not a bad size at all and I've only had to slice a couple of pieces smaller to make them fit on the bed.

I made the switch to Bambu since I heard it was renowned for it's user friendliness, after owning a Creality Ender 5 Plus and having nothing but issues. Seriously, Over 1.5 years of ownership and I barely printed anything, more time was spent fixing it then printing it. It was a major put off wanting to 3D print at all, so I made the switch to a machine that basically did it all automatically (albeit at a higher cost). While it may seem as a bit cliche to go Bambu now (as a beginner), I've been really pleased with it.

And since I got it, basically all it's been doing (for nearly 900 print hours now) is printing my Master Chief armour though I did also print this cool Forward Unto Dawn ^^

I first started with a Mono pixel clone of the FF adventurer 3 I think, bed size 200 x 200.

Now I have a Adventurer 5m pro, bed Size 250 x 250. I have printed TONS of helmets and am working and a CE armour set
