I’m planning on retiring in the summer, the S5 will come then.

Oi nutter!
I've been looking at the bigger machines, they are getting super cheap now, especially as the CR-10s Pro is starting to become available. How easy is it to level out the bed - being bigger I'd suspect that it would be more sensitive to tiny differences in height at the corners?
Also, I'd recommend getting some dampers for the X and Y axis, A set of 5 only costs 10 quid off Amazon, and they really do get rid of the high pitched whine from the stepper motors.

Hi Martin,
I think there are 12 rollers under the bed, adjusting them was a pita but once done levelling the bed was a doddle.

Wayne, I really do think you need to consider fitting a UPS to your power supply for these long prints, otherwise.........
I won't go into the possibilities and consequences, it's just tempting the gremlins.....

Let us know what you find? I've had a couple of prints fail due to a momentary power outage.
