The Mingda Magician X is a 3D printer specifically targeted at new users. There’s very little assembly and it has automatic bed levelling, a direct drive extruder and a colour touch screen. • In this thorough review, I’ll put it through its paces printing a range of models in a variety of filaments including PETG - not just PLA - to try and help you decide if this printer is right for you. • If you’re new to 3D printing I’d highly recommend watching at least some of my earlier video that introduces 3D printing with the budget Creality Ender 3: • Creality Ender 3 review | Best budget... • If you want to skip forward or back at any time in this video, please use the chapter markers YouTube creates from the timestamps down below and in the pinned comment. • -------- • You can purchase the printer directly from Mingda: • https://3dmingdaofficial.com/?ref=u4y... • Use this code for $20 off: GRMXUSD20 • or from Amazon: • Mingda Magician X: https://geni.us/PqEaWw • Other Amazon links: • eSun PLA+: https://geni.us/KSbA • eSun ABS+: https://geni.us/y5W4xF • Eryone TPU: https://geni.us/TheP • Magigoo bed adhesive (and release): https://geni.us/NoMmj • 3DLac spray bed adhesive (and release): https://geni.us/7IDz • Textured PEI removeable sheet: https://geni.us/RH32Hqu (I've not upgraded this yet but use an Energetic one on my Ender 3 which I've been happy with) • As an Amazon affiliate, I get a small commission from purchases made via any Amazon links. • Written article: http://thetechnologyman.com • Mingda Facebook group: / mingda3dprinter • Mingda tutorials: / 1534802933581986 • Prints in video: • Vase: https://www.printables.com/model/9826... • Stackable storage containers: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/tool/... • A-team van: https://fab365.net/items/147 • -------- • You can find most of the recent tech I've reviewed recently all in one place on my Amazon page.
