[CN] 4th Anniversary Event with Victor (Prologue)
Tumblr media
⌚ This post contains detailed spoilers for contents that are yet to be released in the global server! ⌚
Tumblr media
MC: [practicing her speech] “Victor, for the sake of me working so hard this year, participate in the ‘Love Around The City’ together with me”!
MC: But what if he says that I’ve done a so-so job this year?
MC: [back to practicing her speech] “Victor, I’ve heard that Loveland City is going to arrange a riddle solving event for couples in some time. It’s very fun. Let’s go and participate!”
Tumblr media
MC: But what if he complains that this activity is too troublesome?
I’m sitting in Victor’s CEOs’ chair as I turn in a circle, looking towards the tightly closed door.
One and a half minutes ago, Victor has just gone out to answer a phone call, causing me to have no time to even voice my invitation.
Tumblr media
MC: If worst comes to worst, I will just act first and report later. I will go ahead and sign up to design the riddle, then he can come and solve it....
MC: But how should I design the riddle? Draw a picture related to Victor?
MC: Then what kind of Victor should I draw.... working? Cooking? Resting?
I sway my legs and spin around in circles on the chair while thinking. Suddenly, my eyes flash as I notice a piece of brightly colored paper being sandwiched between the documents on the desk.
MC: Isn’t this the.... pamphlet of the “Love Around The City” event?
As it turns out, Victor already knows?
I’m still a little dazed when the door opens again and Victor walks in, his eyebrows raising slightly.
Tumblr media
Victor: Haven’t seen me for five minutes, and you’ve already seized my place?
MC: I was just taking a break, but I didn’t peep on CEO Victor’s business secrets!
I pull out the pamphlet and clear my throat.
Tumblr media
MC: By the way, Victor, do you want to participate together with me....
Victor: “Love Around The City”? I wanted to tell you about this too.
MC: You’ve finished arranging it already? Including the riddles?
Tumblr media
Victor: If I wait for a dummy to arrange it, I’m afraid I’ll only be able to crack a semi-finished product.
He raises his phone at me. I blink as my reaction comes over.... could it be that the phone call Victor answered just now was for this event?
Tumblr media
Victor: Why are you staring with your eyes so wide, like a dummy.
Victor: Now that we’ve already made the decision to go, when the time comes, be sure to wait.
Tumblr media
MC: Mm! Be sure to wait!

[CN] Gavin’s Obsession Date (Part One)
🍒 Warning: This post contains detailed spoilers for a date, 执迷之约, which has not been released in English servers! 🍒
🍒 Additional warning: This date is on the spicy side, so it is not recommended for minors 🍒 
Due to the length of this date, I had to split it into two parts ♡
Tumblr media
[ Released on 1 February 2021 ]
[ CHAPTER 1 ]
Outside the window, rustling rain pelts down. Without even realising it, I take out my phone, entering a daze as I stare at the screen which has no notifications.
It’s been two months since Gavin and I last met.
[ flashback starts ]
Two months ago, in the depths of night, I was preparing for bed when I suddenly heard knocking at the window.
MC: ...is the wind that strong today?
??: MC. 
An unexpected call gives me a fright. Patting my face and noting that I'm not dreaming, I rush to the window barefooted. 
MC: ...G-Gavin?!
The large patch of moonlight is blocked by Gavin as he stands outside the window, and his eyes seem to cage the entire starlight of the night sky.
MC: Why the sudden visit?
I hurry to open the window, and what I get in response is an embrace packed with the night breeze, along with Gavin’s deep, contented sigh.
MC: Why are you giving me another special surprise attack?
Tumblr media
Gavin: I knocked at the window this time.
Giving him a blank stare, I recall what happened earlier, realising what this person is referring to.
MC: That’s not what I meant.
Despite saying this, I return his hug tightly.
MC: Visiting me so suddenly this late at night - it isn’t just to hug me, is it?
Gavin: I promise you that it’d be the only reason next time.
MC: In that case, remember to bring less cold wind with you. Mr Gavin’s jokes are a little cold.
Hearing my teasing remark, he smiles. He nuzzles my face, filled with longing.
Gavin still hasn’t said anything, but I can more or less guess the hidden meaning behind his abrupt visit.
MC: When are you leaving?
Gavin: ...right now.
Hearing his definite answer, I’m all the more reluctant to part with him, hugging him tight.
MC: Take care.
Gavin: You too. Do less overtime work, and don’t walk home alone at night. Also, don’t catch a cold. The temperature will be falling in a few days.
MC: Mm, remember not to push yourself. If you get injured, I’ll get angry immediately.
Tumblr media
Gavin: ...
Tumblr media
Gavin: I’ll do my best.
After a short silence, the communication device on his waist releases a reminder beep.
MC: Are you leaving now?
Tumblr media
Gavin: ...for this mission, I might be away for a longer duration. So just let me hug you for a while.
Tumblr media
Gavin: The final thirty seconds.
[ flashback ends ]
Ever since Gavin left, he hasn’t sent any news.
Dozens of days have passed. Even on the night of 31st December, I didn’t see him return.
Perhaps right now, no news is the best news.
??: Eh, what are you spacing about now?
The sound of someone’s voice pulls me out from my thoughts and back to reality.
I instinctively turn around, looking at the man in front of me who’s donned in a suit, his fringe neat, blinking at me slowly.
MC: Brother Chen.
Brother Chen: It’s far too cold to stand here. We’ll talk inside. I just can’t understand why anyone would hold an engagement banquet during the Lunar New Year. Is there something special about Valentine’s Day? Also, your sister-in-law is basically inhumane - she wasn’t willing to waste time over here with me!
MC: You’ve been complaining the entire way. You should take a break.
[Note] Just to clarify - Brother Chen isn’t her actual brother. In Chinese, the term “Brother” doesn’t necessarily mean they are related! The term “sister-in-law” is also used loosely.
This time, Lunar New Year is taking place rather late, and it clashes with Valentine’s Day. 
The daughter of a senior from the film industry is holding an engagement banquet today. She invited friends from within and outside the business circle, and I was fortunate enough to receive an invitation.
On one hand, I felt that I should attend out of courtesy as a junior. On the other hand, since I didn’t have anything to do without Gavin around, I agreed.
At the same time, a senior who took care of me during my days in university also received an invitation, and has “reluctantly” agreed to participate in this banquet out of business etiquette.
We form a partnership at short notice, heading to the banquet together.
Brother Chen: You don’t look too good, as though you haven’t been sleeping well. Haha, did you have too much fun with your boyfriend while crossing into the new year?
With a face which reads “I understand completely”, he lowers his head and leans closer, his eyes brightening, reminiscent of the several thousand kilowatt lightbulbs dangling in the middle of the large hall.
Suppressing the urge to criticise him, I plan to push his head away when a gust of extremely cold wind courses past us forcefully.
Brother Chen: Whoa! So cold, so cold!
At this moment, for some inexplicable reason, I feel as though I’m being watched.
Bewildered, I scan my surroundings. Other guests are walking into the large hall, and I can’t see any familiar faces in the crowd.
Brother Chen: Why are you in a daze? Let’s go, let’s go.
Brother Chen offers me his arm. Casting my confusion aside, I hold his arm and we walk into the banquet hall.
Upon stepping into the banquet hall, I once again sense that incredibly intense, icy cold gaze. Because of this, I subconsciously turn around--
The man is leaning against the wall next to the window. The chilly moonlight coats him in a layer of silver light and a wordless “don’t get close to me.” Yet, it’s unable to hinder the curious gazes of others.
Donned in an appropriate suit, he looks a little foreign. Swaying a wine glass with slow motions, the colour of wine provides a foil to his eyes, covering it with a dangerous aura.
The man indifferently smoothens his hair with his fingers, bits of his hair brushing those eyes which are looking straight into mine.
I finally find the owner of that gaze--
Tumblr media
Gavin, who is currently giving me an icy stare.
-
[ CHAPTER 1 - Behind the scenes ]
A conversation between Gavin and Eli: here
-
[ CHAPTER 2 ]
Akin to a pot of boiling water, it silently scalds the tip of my heart, leaving me unable to hear anything else apart from my own heart, which is clamouring and seething with excitement.
I blink slowly, worried that this is just a hallucination from missing him too much.
But Gavin continues leaning against the wall. He doesn’t disappear, nor does he come closer. He simply gives me a deep stare.
Brother Chen: Did you spot a familiar face?
MC: ...!
Brother Chen’s voice suddenly sounds, stopping my feet from involuntarily straying off, and bringing my focus back.
In a daze, I lift my head to look at Brother Chen, who looks bewildered. Gavin’s appearance and my suddenly sluggish mind finally realise certain things.
His different attire, the way he seems to deliberately put distance between us, a longer and unique confidential mission, and an engagement banquet where crooks and honest folk are mixed together. 
Taking a few steps backwards, I scan my surroundings before turning my gaze towards Gavin.
We look at each other from afar. He raises his wine glass and takes a sip, as though forcing himself to avert his gaze.
The Gavin of right now... did he appear at this place in the capacity of a member from STF?
I suppress the uncertainty in my heart. The emotions surging from seeing him after such a long time are incomparable to the feeling of ease from seeing him safe. 
Gavin didn’t take the initiative to come closer, so it’s probably best if I don’t act rashly... and cause him any trouble.
Brother Chen: Hey... seeing a handsome brother means your brother doesn’t exist, right?
MC: ...you consider yourself as one?
Brother Chen: You lass!
Saying this, he lifts his hand, forming it into a flat shape akin to a karate chop, and tapping it against the top of my head.
Ignoring his antics, I pretend that nothing has happened, greeting the friends I recognise, and trying to suppress the urge to lunge over to Gavin’s side.
But the more I try not to look at him, the more my gaze is uncontrolled, slipping towards that profile which I’ve been longing for for such a long time.
All sorts of people flock to Gavin, tease him, or speak to him.
Gavin just listens quietly, tilting his head as he sways the wine glass in his hand. Only when the conversation reaches its crux does he lift his eyes slightly, his head unmoving, simply tossing out a few words.
An unfamiliar smile hangs on his face. He occasionally takes an indolent sip of wine, his entire self dyed in a rather self-indulgent drunkenness.
The red hue quietly climbing up the sides his face due to the alcohol - it’s much more alluring than the first time I saw it.
At this moment, it’s as though he hears something interesting. Gavin chuckles in contempt, tugging casually at his overly formal tie, revealing his collar faintly.
That’s a Gavin who’s a little foreign to me.
Brother Chen: I haven’t seen that person before. He isn’t from the circle, is he?
After accompanying me to take a walk around the hall, he purses his lips towards the area Gavin is standing, asking furtively.
MC: ...I haven’t seen him before either. The big shots probably have a lot of friends.
Brother Chen: Tch, looks like he’s a pampered, indulgent son from some wealthy family.
MC: Pfft--
Hearing this, the everyday life of a certain “pampered son” surfaces in my mind, and I can't help but laugh aloud.
Brother Chen: There are quite a number of children from wealthy families who mingle with people in the industry. He looks like one.
MC: What else can you tell?
Brother Chen: I can also tell that you kept staring at him earlier. Let me caution you that it isn’t a wise thing to do. Even though I haven’t met the one from your place, be careful - I might tell on you.
MC: Don’t spout nonsense! 
At the thought of how this senior is an expert at embellishing details in a story and could potentially blabber nonsense, I poke him in the arm.
MC: Let me tell you, I...
??: Sorry. For. Interrupting.
Before I can explain myself, a cold voice cuts off the words I've prepared.
It’s as though he spoke through gritted teeth. I turn around--
Without me noticing, Gavin has already walked up to us. 
Tumblr media
I stare at him in astonishment. When our gazes meet, his eyes widen slightly, and he blinks slowly. 
It’s as if his act of walking over has left himself astonished.
But Gavin quickly reels in his emotions. Casting a quick glance at me, he raises his glasses to Brother Chen.
Tumblr media
Gavin: You’re Director Chen Yi from that avant-garde, experimental dance drama, “In and Out of the Show” aren’t you? I’ve been looking forward to meeting you.
The last few words, infused with a certain unruliness, are as light as a feather.
Brother Chen: ...! You’re too polite. It was just something I toyed with. How should I address you?
Gavin: Lin. Being able to clinch a few international awards with something you toyed with... Director Chen is too humble.
Brother Chen: Even though my wife always tells me to be humble on the outside, how should I put it... Haha! Mr Lin, you have pretty good taste. 
Gavin: [chuckles] Thank you. I don’t watch much though.
Brother Chen: ...
The atmosphere becomes a little awkward.
A smile fills Brother Chen’s face. Lowering his head, he leans to my ear. 
Brother Chen: Is he here to pick a quarrel with me?
MC: ...
I try my hardest to push his head away as he leans towards me. Looking at Gavin’s increasingly cold gaze, I can vaguely sense the issue here.
However, he continues putting an on an act and engaging in small talk with Brother Chen, not looking at me even once. Probably realising that the words he used earlier were inappropriate, he tries to contain himself.
At this point, a wine attendee carries some champagne over. Just as I’m about to reach for a glass, a hand wearing a black glove is even quicker.
He sets down the wine glass that he’s always been carrying, and takes that glass of champagne first.
Tumblr media
Gavin: This is my wine. 
Our fingers brush past. His pinky finger hooks around mine. Just for a moment.
This person probably doesn’t want me to drink.
Tumblr media
I take a cup of fruit juice quietly, giving Gavin an indignant glance. He lowers his eyes, leaving the place we’re at, then walks towards another crowd.
Brother Chen: Where did that Mr Lin come from? He’s scary.
I don’t say anything, simply staring at the pinky finger which was hooked onto earlier. The warmth from his glove seems to linger, and it heats up faintly.
The engagement party continues in this peaceful undercurrent.
Because of Gavin’s presence, he can always, at any moment and any time, grasp my full attention.
It isn’t a good thing, and might affect his mission. Patting my face, I send my regards to Brother Chen before deciding to touch up on my makeup and have a change of mood. 
Leaving the main hall, I head towards the washroom. 
When I turn into a corner, I’m pulled into the darkness with some urgency.
Just as I’m prepared to exclaim, the soft sound of the door locking is accompanied by a familiar yet scorching kiss.
It engulfs my entire world. 
-
[ CHAPTER 2 - Behind the scenes ]
Through the earpiece, Eli’s teasing laughter is continuous. With a composed expression, Gavin turns into the washroom, suppressing the urge to turn off the communication device. 
Splashing ice-cold water onto his face, he doesn’t even wipe it off before heading to the outer hall. Cold wind blows on his face, as though it can pull together his crumbling reason.
Tumblr media
Gavin: Eli, give me a report on the current situation.
Eli: The goods haven’t been transacted yet. They probably noticed you. But both parties to the transaction have already arrived, and they’re at Little Lu’s two o’clock and Tang Chao’s eight o’ clock respectively.
Gavin: Lu Yi and Tang Chao, take note. At an opportune time, place the bait. The rest can prepare to provide support, and exchange places promptly. The “mouse” is ready to enter the cave. How’s the situation with the goods?
Eli: A group of people are guarding it. It seems they’re prepared to move it at any moment, but there aren’t much signs of activity. The “warning” has probably been put in place.
Gavin: Mm, don’t let down your guard. When the goods are moving, Squad Nine, follow immediately.
Secret signals flow into the earpiece. Gavin’s nerves are tense, and he has yet to relax.
In his mind, he repeats the entire plan over and over again, deriving all sorts of possibilities. But at the very end, he always sees her face.
As the boss of [MC’s Company Name], she was poised and confident as she greeted others. Because of Chen Yi’s words, she lowered her head and laughed - she looked so good smiling. 
Who knows what sort of nonsense that guy was blabbering again. 
But she always gave him secret glances. He knew. It’s just like how he had glanced at her secretly too.
The girl was just a few metres away from him. It’s as though with just a few more steps forward, he could encase her in his arms. 
Just like how he did in the countless, intermittent dreams he had over the past dozens of days. 
Eli: Captain Gavin, I’ve turned off the communication devices for everyone else. I wanted to say a few things to you alone. 
Gavin: Go on.
Eli: Just now, “Mr Lin” had a few pretty unique expressions. For an unknown reason, he even ran up to a certain director and opened fire, and...
Tumblr media
Gavin: And even took her wine and held her hand. I’ve said it on your behalf. What else do you want to say?
Eli: Why did you take her hand!
Tumblr media
Gavin: ...that was my fault earlier.
Eli: I didn’t even say anything. What I wanted to say was - a hedonistic son of rich parents would do such a thing too, so it isn’t a big problem. After all, that girl was casting amorous glances at you too. In the eyes of normal people, it wouldn’t be surprising if anything happened between you two.
Gavin: I know what I’m doing.
Eli: Do you really?
Gavin: I...
Eli: Why are you behaving like a seventeen or eighteen year old high schooler who doesn't dare to talk to the lady he has a secret crush on? 
Hearing what Eli says, Gavin actually smiles.
Tumblr media
Gavin: Maybe I really haven’t gotten any better. Sorry, give me a quarter of an hour. I’ll handle it.
Eli: Is a quarter of an hour enough?
Gavin: Don’t push your luck. I’ll be back quickly.
-
[ CHAPTER 3 ]
The friction and fireworks between our intertwining lips and tongues ignites the person I’ve been yearning after for a long time.
The unease, worry, obsession... they’re all swallowed up by him.
This unbridled kiss is reminiscent of a rustling breeze at the height of summer, tainted with the sweet and cloying scent of wine. It makes one want to drink in excess, yet easily disintegrates all my defences.
Every nerve in my body is set alight by him and blazing, causing me to tremble involuntarily, and I press myself closer to him.
The tempestuous waves sweep my consciousness away, forcefully making this person’s name the only thing left in the entire world.
MC: Gav...
The whimper escaping my mouth is exchanged with panting at the corner of my lips as he rests.
MC: Why do you always give me surprise attacks?
Gavin: Didn’t I knock at the window before?
MC: ...that’s not what I meant.
Gavin: Hm?
His deep and low voice burrows into my heart along with his breaths, like an unsatisfied hunter teasing its prey while taking a break midway.
MC: Back then, you were like this at the planetarium too...
Gavin: You still remember Chandler?
MC: ...who’s that? Wait, this isn’t the point!
He chuckles indolently, arching his brows as though reflecting on himself. His smile leans towards my lips, causing me to tremble. 
Gavin: In that case, are you ready?
MC: What...
Taking a deep breath, he doesn’t leave me any time to react, once again drawing my breaths into his nimble tongue in an overbearing manner.
The darkness morphs into an intimate web, entrapping me within. All that’s left are his eyes and the melodious and soft sound of water.
My fingers comb through his slightly damp hair, my legs gradually becoming weak and limp. All I can do is wrap my arms around his neck weakly. 
His smooth leather gloves linger on my back, fingertips caressing the metal zip which has been dyed by my body temperature, continuously gliding down my back.
An unfamiliar yet somewhat solid sensation announces its entrance. 
Gavin: MC...
He calls my name, gentle kisses sliding down my neck, and he buries his face in the crook of my shoulder.
Gavin: Doing such things at this time... I’m really...
His soft and inaudible words brush my ear, indistinct amidst heavy breathing.
MC: What?
Gavin: I said - I really missed you.
Gavin: I missed you very, very much.
Each word bears the weight of time and longing, tugging on my increasing heart rate.
Tumblr media
Gavin: I thought about how you might be attending this banquet. 
Tumblr media
Gavin: But when you really appeared, I even thought I simply missed you too much. I told myself that I should prioritise the mission... 
Tumblr media
Gavin: But seeing you laughing so happily, I found myself walking to you by the time I came to my senses.
MC: Gavin, Brother Chen’s kid is already two years old. 
Tumblr media
Gavin: I know. His information is in the guest profile.
His voice is muffled. I feel warm air on my neck, and it’s as though they’re being blown to the tip of my heart. 
MC: I really missed you too, definitely much more than you.
I smile and cup Gavin’s face in my hands, pinching his somewhat slimmer face.
MC: You’ve lost weight. When you return, you’ve got to build up your health properly. You also have to make up for the New Years’ dinner you missed.
Tumblr media
Gavin: Okay.
MC: As of now, are you able to set the date you can return home? 
Gavin: It depends on the state of the mission. If it goes smoothly, it should be soon.
MC: Only “soon”...
Thinking about how Gavin still isn’t able to rest, I purse my lips in slight disappointment.
Tumblr media
Gavin: Sorry, I can’t tell you about the mission in great detail right now. 
MC: It’s okay. Having to put your mission first is something I can understand. Isn’t that right, Mr Lin?
Tumblr media
He’s stunned for a moment, watching as I give him a wink.
MC: Does this count as going undercover? 
Gavin: More or less.
MC: In that case, is there anything I can help you with?
A gentle kiss, reminiscent of a dragonfly skimming the surface of water, lands at the corner of my lips. Gavin smiles in contentment.
Tumblr media
 Gavin: Right now, you’re already helping.
I release a silent sigh in my heart, helping him tidy his slightly messy tie and hair.
Looking at the neatly attired Gavin before me as he once again reverts into the appearance of a “pampered son”, I can't help but chuckle.
MC: On New Year’s, I made a wish that you’d be safe and sound. You have to fulfil my wish.
Gavin: I will. 
Gavin: It’s time. You should head back.
Tumblr media
He says this in a carefree manner, but his eyes still reveal a reluctance to part ways.
MC: Remember to be careful.
Tumblr media
Gavin: ...mm, you can go.
We hold each others’ hands, waiting for the sound of footsteps outside the door to gradually disappear.
Gavin: MC, I forgot something.
MC: Hm? 
Just as I prepare to open the door, Gavin suddenly speaks. I immediately turn around. 
With a forceful tug, he wraps me in his arms. Leaning down to my neck, he imprints a light kiss.
The soft sensation courses through my sensitive nerves, and it almost seems to seep into my blood, bringing with it waves of numbness.
MC: ...!
Tumblr media
Gavin: Don’t worry, it can’t be seen.
Turning his head to the side, his eyes are filled with the glint of someone who has successfully gotten his way.
Gavin: I simply made a mark belonging to me. So those who know what’s good for them will stay further away.
MC: You’re so petty!
Gavin: When it comes to you, I’m petty. You can be petty with me too.
He has already thrown on that “pampered boy” outer coat. With an unruly  smile, he tows my thoughts away.
MC: Of course!
Face flushed, I finally drag some of my reason back, gripping the door handle.
In the next second, a knock comes at the door.
??: Sorry to bother you, Mr Lin. I wonder if it’s a convenient time to meet? 
MC: ...!
Shocked, I whip my head around to look at Gavin. In an instant, he retracts his expression, pulling me behind him.
That voice is especially certain, as though he has long since known what’s happening in this room.
Tumblr media
Gavin: It isn’t very convenient. 
??: I’m worried that I’m not being hospitable, which is why I wish to invite Mr Lin to show himself.
Gavin: The way you're acting now is sufficiently inhospitable.
??: I’m wondering if Mr Lin has a... friend with the name “Gavin”.
[Note] To be precise, what the mysterious man said in Chinese was “friend with the surname Bai”. However, I personally prefer not to give EN Gavin a surname because it might confuse purely EN players, so I’ve changed it a little, and I’m guessing the official translation will handle this the same way! :>
The person outside chuckles leisurely, his statement embedded with profound significance.
Hearing this, Gavin narrows his eyes. His fingers tap on his phone screen, and it seems he’s switching on the communication device in his ear. 
Gavin: I’ve got quite a number of friends with the name “Gavin”. I don’t know who you’re referring to.
The person outside the door refuses to let him off, and a rustling sound can be heard from outside the window. My heart beats quickly, and I keep thinking of how I could be of help.
Tumblr media
Gavin: [whispers] MC, I’ll think of a way for you to leave first. I’ll handle the rest...
MC: He said “friend with the name ‘Gavin’”. If he’s already suspicious, hiding in the room will just attract even more doubt. It’s impossible for you not to know this.
I stare fixedly at his face. Gavin doesn’t deny it, and returns my gaze quietly.
Through the shadow encased by moonlight, I glance at myself in the faraway mirror, staring at the light kiss on my neck, which left no trace yet seems to be printed on my heart.
I suddenly think of something.
There are noises outside the door. Not knowing what the man is up to, I can hear faint dialogue relating to retrieving the keycard.
Kicking off my high heels, I turn around and pull Gavin to the sofa in a small inner room. Removing the outer coat of his suit, I place my hand carelessly on the back of the sofa chair--
And push him down onto the sofa.
Tumblr media
Gavin: ...!
Gavin is evidently given a fright by my series of actions. The faint electronic buzz drifting from his ears becomes muted.
Just as he’s about to get up and say something, I cover his mouth.
MC: Trust me.
Giving it some thought, I take two bottles of wine from the wine rack at the side, opening a bottle and pouring it into a glass.
Then, I remove one of his gloves, replacing it with a ribbon taken from the mouth of a bottle, winding it around his wrist. The sounds from outside the door grow increasingly louder, and my hand trembles uncontrollably. 
Gavin: MC, do you know what you’re doing right now?

🌸 Warning: This post contains detailed spoilers for content that hasn’t been released on the EN server yet! 🌸
Tumblr media
[Note: The second call and Moments post contains references to Kiro’s New Palpitations Date. Highly recommend reading that first!]
🌸 Call 1: Custom Guitar
Kiro: Miss Chips, have you received the express delivery?
MC: Just received it! This guitar is so beautiful!
Kiro: Do you like it?
Kiro: This was specially customized for you from a senior luthier~
Kiro: In addition to colors and patterns, the size of the guitar is also tailored to your height and body type.
MC: I like it!
MC: But I'm just a beginner. Wouldn't it be a pity to use such a good guitar?
Kiro: Of course not. Beginners should pay more attention to the choice of guitar.
Kiro: You've just started to practice guitar. The correct posture of holding it is very important.
Kiro: If the instrument is too big or too heavy for you, It may cause you to hold the guitar in a wrong posture.
Kiro: More importantly, you will also be very uncomfortable during a performance. In severe cases, it will cause strains to your spine and arms.
MC: So that's the reason.
MC: I tried it in my hands and it was really comfortable!
Kiro: This guitar also hides a little secret. You can look for it in the express box.
MC: Is it the capo?
MC: The lettering on this is... "MC & Kiro".
Kiro: Mm. It's our names.
Kiro: I originally wanted to engrave it on the guitar itself, but considering that the lettering will more or less damage the guitar, I engraved it on the capo.
Kiro: In this way, every tone made by this guitar in the future will be related to "MC and Kiro".
 ───※ ·❆· ※─── 🌸 ───※ ·❆· ※───
🌸 Call 2: Joy of Life
Kiro: Miss Chips, are you free tomorrow?
Kiro: You should continue the guitar lesson~
MC: I'm free tomorrow! Still at Huahai Park?
Kiro: Of course not.
Kiro: The next lesson will be at the seaside~
Kiro: At ten o'clock tomorrow morning, Teacher Hai will be waiting for you downstairs at your house on time...
MC: Wait... Teacher Hai? What about Teacher Hua?
Kiro: Teacher Hua is a bit arrogant. I was afraid that he would bully you in class, so I invited a new teacher.
MC: I think Teacher Hua is quite cute!
MC: Although his attitude was cold, he was very patient in teaching, and would tell one or two cold jokes from time to time.
Kiro: Hehe, as long as you like it.
Kiro: Then it's better for me to call Teacher Hua to come tomorrow!
MC: But I'm also looking forward to Teacher Hai...
Kiro: Understood.
Kiro: Tomorrow, the first half of the class will be taught by Teacher Hua, and the second half of the class will be taught by Teacher Hai.
Kiro: Interspersed with Kiro's one-stop service of "Eat, Drink and Have Fun at the Beach" during the process!
MC: Listening to you say that, how come I feel like going out to play inexplicably...
Kiro: That's right!
Kiro: Learning is to be carried out with happiness and enjoyment.
Kiro: I hope MC will be in anticipation before every guitar lesson.
Kiro: No, not only for guitar lessons, but also for life.
Kiro: So, please enjoy every moment of the past, present, and future.
Kiro: I will create more surprises for our lives~

T/N: Just wanted to note the play on words used in this phone call. The park that Kiro and MC visited was called “花海” or “Huahai” which translates into “Sea of Flowers.” The two personas that Kiro creates - “Teacher Hua” and “Teacher Hai” - involves the splitting up of that phrase into “Hua”, which means “flower”, and “Hai” which means “sea” respectively. Kiro then uses these two personas to represent their respective teaching environments - Teacher Hua for the park, and Teacher Hai for the beach.
P.S. I wonder what “Teacher Hai’s” personality was going to be like HAHAHA!

Part 8
Warnings: Inappropriate use of the Force, Force sex, angst, nsfw, y’all know the drill
Summary: In which answers are found. 
Ship: Kylo Ren x Negotiator!Reader
Word Count: 6.6k
The room smelled too sweet, the kind that lodged under your tongue and ached in your jaw. It made you long for the silence of your seaside room, made you strangely thankful that Kylo Ren often never filled it. But only for a minute. Because thinking of him reminded you of how you’d woken to an empty bed and cold, damp sheets and that you were certainly not thankful for. 
Meanwhile, Lem Alba seemed intrinsically compelled to do exactly the opposite. 
In fact, once he’d guessed you wouldn’t chew his head off every time he opened his mouth, it never closed again. You weren’t entirely sure if this annoyed or pleased you. But when Lem came to your door and invited you to brunch before all campaign staff were carted off back to the Federal District, you agreed. 
If only to avoid being left alone with your thoughts. 
“Not to grandstand,” Lem babbled between sips of his drink, “but I often feel some of my skills are wasted working just as a personal aide.” 
You glanced up from your plate and nodded, “I think most people in this profession tend to believe that. We’re all a bit insatiable.” 
He chuckled, soft voice melding perfectly with the chatter and bustle of the surrounding tables. You couldn’t help but think that Lem fit in well here, as much as he tried to deny it. His edges blended seamlessly with the velvet and silk background. It reminded you of when he’d plucked you right out of the crowd your first night here. 
“You First Order people have a way about you. Something in the way you stand a bit too straight.”
Something in the way you’re always waiting for the ball to drop. 
“Yes well, I’m not gunning for a power grab,” Lem sighed and rolled his eyes. 
He looked very much like a scorned child and you felt a twinge of remorse, “No, I didn’t think you were.” 
“It’s alright,” he ran a hand through his neat hair and stared at you over the rim of his glass, “I just get so bored of it all sometimes.”
“Mm, me too,” you said around a bite of some extravagant concoction that dripped embarrassingly down your chin. 
You thought of blood and saltwater rolling across your skin and quickly wiped it away with a napkin. 
“Really? I wouldn’t have thought that would be an issue for someone in your position.”
You had to try very hard not to scoff out loud, settling for a disbelieving raise of your eyebrows. Piles of paperwork taller than the Commander filled your head, glowering officers and incessant incident reports—your life nothing more than a series of other people's mistakes that somehow became your fault. Grey walls and meetings that never ended. 
Come to think of it, you’d been bored and tired and frustrated your whole life it seemed. Although, not so much anymore. Still just as exhausted and angry, but less like a pacing animal in a cage. The thought sat uncomfortably in your stomach as you wondered when exactly that had changed.  
Of course you already knew the answer. 
You always were attracted to things that kept you on your toes. 
“Should we discuss this speech I’m supposed to be giving?” you asked. 
If Lem noticed your less than subtle change in topic, he didn’t show it for which you were grateful. 
“Certainly,” he gestured for you to continue. 
“Well, I’ve had it outlined for quite awhile since the powers that be were oh-so specific about the subject matter,” you began, watching Lem grimace sympathetically. 
“Yes, I believe I’m meant to collect a draft from you by the end of the week.” 
The joints in your shoulders popped when you slumped forward, hanging your head against the weight of far too stringent deadlines.
“I’m well aware,” you sighed. “Normally I wouldn’t be so neglectful of the timeline, I’m just having a hard time...focusing.” 
The barely concealed mark on the curve of your neck throbbed as you recalled the massive, decadently handsome distraction that consistently occupied your workspace. Really, how were you expected to get any quality content produced with that dark, looming shadow always poisoning your mind with questions and completely inappropriate fantasy. 
Currently, your entire body seemed to constrict at the notion that it was no longer strictly a fantasy. Your muscles corded taught, pulling like a ruched seam and tugging painfully at the sinew. It felt almost as if you were a marionette with invisible strings controlled by equally invisible hands that tingled as they jerked you about. You got the distinct sensation that someone was watching you, but resisted the urge to turn and look. 
Lem—completely oblivious to your inner turmoil—perked up and offered you a blindingly white grin full of ramrod straight teeth. 
“I have an office I’m more than willing to loan out if you’d like to make use of it,” he said. 
You considered the idea, chewing on your lip. Maybe getting lost in speech writing would be good, you thought. Something easy, something formulaic would do wonders for taking your mind off, well, everything. 
“As long as you’re offering,” you flashed him a strained smile and went back to shuffling things around your plate. 
Lem continued to spew an endless stream of comfortingly meaningless ramblings and you bathed in the sound of it, looking up occasionally to offer a hum of acknowledgement. You didn’t really care what he was saying—whether it was opinions for opening lines or who you should thank first or what color to wear that he thought would bring out your eyes—but you couldn’t remember the last time you’d had a friendly conversation with...anyone. 
So you let him talk, and nodded every once in a while and basked in the normalcy, the mundaneness of the scene. Until, of course, the peace was shattered when your server returned with a new cocktail for Lem, who promptly spilled it all over the table. 
You watched it unfold like the audience of a holodrama: the waiter, tall with an abundance of black curls and long fingers extending the glass, their hands touching for just an instant, the scarlet blush that tinted Lem’s ears when he glanced at the man’s face and stared transfixed even as the drink spilled off the table and onto his slacks. 
It felt very suddenly as if you were seeing something you shouldn’t be. 
But the moment ended quickly and quietly, fizzling out with a whimper as the waiter with all his curly hair frantically mopped up the mess. His voice was low and pleasant when he apologized and rushed off to get another drink mixed. 
For once, you had the urge to participate in the conversation. 
“Who’s that?” you asked, flicking your eyes up briefly and then back down to the wet mark on the table cloth. 
Lem shrugged and fiddled with the stain on his pants, “Nobody.” 
And for once, it seemed, he had nothing else to say on the matter. 
It was truly a challenge to keep the amused smile from splitting your cheeks as Lem so clearly tried and failed not to make a complete fool of himself every time said server returned to clear plates. And when a beautifully decorated fruit tart found its way to your table—decidedly marked as ‘on the house’—you were graced with an extraordinarily toothy, childish smile from your dining companion. 
Your chest ached with it, the display of reality. 
On your first night here, you’d thought Lem looked too much like all the other First Order officers you were forced to work with. Thought his hair was too perfect, his suit too pressed, words too cherry picked. 
But here you were again, getting drawn in by these stupid, simple instances of existence in relation to others. You craved the feeling of fading into the background as Lem stuttered whenever he tried to thank the boy with his curls and warm smile. 
It was strange too, to see that people truly did flush and brush hands and chew their lips and smile so freely. For whatever reason, you’d been under the distinct impression that was an exclusively fictional pursuit, saved for holofilms or storybooks. 
Did those things exist in you? Were there times when you’d fluttered the way Lem did now, cautiously stealing bites of his tart, trying to preserve the delicate design for as long as possible? Or had they atrophied and fallen to dust from disuse, nothing more than a vestigial organ, unnecessary and forgotten—ready to pump your body full of toxins at a moment's notice should it burst. 
And that only raised more questions. How incomplete had you been this whole time? How long had you been ignorant of your deficiency?  
And did it matter?
But that was not something you could ever answer. So, you sat back and watched and listened and breathed it in. 
Appreciated from afar this show of innocenceweakness.
You jolted in your seat, shoulders bunching together as if a hand had grabbed you from behind. The double voice rang out in your head, echoing up like it was shouted from the bottom of some pit inside you. You knew that voice though—would know it anywhere by now.  
It was him, of course it was. 
You could feel Kylo Ren like a shroud, a dampening of the outside world. When you listened closely, you swore you could hear the sound of crashing waves, the crunch of sand under boot heels. The smell of salt and skin and bloody water filled your nose. Your chest was burning, a prison for some roiling, angry creature that flung itself against the steel bars of your ribs.
His ribs.
His heartbeat, a pounding and ruthless tattoo.
His feet already moving in time to the beat, carrying him farther and farther— 
Is it? you shouted back.
The words tore at your throat even as you sat in silence at the table. But no response came, instead the chatter of the dining room returned and Lem tilted his head in concern, standing and gathering you up by the arms. 
He pulled you down the poshly ornamented halls, chattering still but shooting glances down more often with his brows furrowed. You let him lead you, thin arm looped around yours, back towards your quarters to ‘help you pack,’ he said. And you didn’t bother discouraging him. 
You already knew the room would empty. 
***
The meeting had been dragging on for quite nearly an hour already. You were seated at the far end of a comically long table staring off into oblivion, eyes having glazed over nearly ten minutes in when one of the relations staff started going on about color coordinating suits. 
Although, you were not completely tuned out. It was very hard to be when just a few seats away sat the Representative himself with his grotesque excuse for an advisor positioned at his right hand. Fortunately he hadn’t spared you a glance, but it was a challenge not to keep one eye on him at all times—to not consistently feel your calves twitch, ready to bolt through the nearest exit. 
You understood now what it must be like for all those prisoners sitting in the Finalizer’s belly—backed into the final corner, waiting for Kylo Ren to swoop in like a shadow and leave them flayed open to be tossed out with the rest of those who have outgrown their usefulness. 
You’ve been trying not to think too specifically about...him since you’d returned to the Federal District, your room here just as empty as the one by the sea. His shirt, the one you’d stolen was still packed neatly into your bags. You thought about throwing it away, or tossing it in the corner for him to find. But then you remembered the bits of torn up packaging and lace and that you would not sink to that level. Physical reminders aside, your head had been blessedly—or maybe concerningly—devoid of any voices that were not your own since your, well, ‘fight’ you supposed was the word for it at brunch. 
Then again, all you ever did with him was fight, but this felt different. 
There were plenty of reasons for the Commander to be angry with you, in fact, you didn’t think there could ever be a shortage. However, this seemed just a little too...petulant for your liking. 
You recalled some of Hux’s old rants. Generally, you’d just let him rave like you were just another piece of furniture in his office, stewing in the same hot, bubbling pot of indignation. You could hear him now:
“He’s a child, a sulking, immature youngling completely incapable of a single rational thought.”
And you finally understood what he meant. 
If only you were allowed to use the silent treatment, but that seemed to be a privilege only for those higher up in the food chain. 
Besides, you were far too classy for such elementary tactics. 
You spat the last words and hoped to the stars that wherever the hell Ren had run off to, he heard them. Which one of you was the weak one now?
It was Lem who pulled you from the dark, brooding hole you’d dug yourself as he caught your eye from across the table. The speakers were switching, a half-hearted applause ringing out in the cavernous room and he flashed you a quick roll of his eyes. You bit back a smile at the way he jumped when Gahl turned to rattle off some inane order and Lem scrambled to take a note down. 
Watching it reminded you of how he’d nearly leaped out of his suit when the waiter boy with curly hair brought by your plates. Jane was his name. You’d discovered it while Lem was helping you pack, happily filling the silence with how he was much too smart to be working as a server.
And as you thought, your traitorous mind led you inevitably back to the looming, black specter that haunted your every waking minute. You would be kidding yourself if you thought you could ever have given the Commander the cold shoulder when truly he was all you ever thought about. Even before, even if it was just to remember how much you despised him. 
Past tense now, you noted worriedly. What a terrifying concept. 
But your brain was moving quickly past that, tucking it away in some far, deep corner to only be touched on long nights when you were up far past the shift in day cycles. 
Now it was replaying your brunch, closing up on a still of Jane’s hand on the glass about to tumble, on the lip biting, starry eyed and heart pounding look in his eyes. And then he was changing, the skin of his hand growing lighter, milky and soft with scattered freckles. 
Then it was your hand reaching out. Your hand slipping on the glass and Kylo Ren—sweet smile on his face—staring down at you blushing like a ripe fruit in summer.  
His lovely crooked teeth flashed behind lips like pillows filled with the softest featherdown.  
The tips of his fingers brushed your hand, light and nervous in that not-quite-accidental way that should have made your heart leap into hyper drive. Kylo’s eye flicked down at the floor, downcast coyly and glancing every few seconds to catch you staring at the pink in his cheeks.
You watched the scene as if through water, some stark, salty barrier that coated him in a film of non-reality. You waited for the star shine look of his eyes to pull you in, waited to feel your hands shake and your pulse race and any number of other inane, fluttery things that you had seen Lem stumble through.
But the sight of it, the look on this man's face—because it was most certainly not Kylo Ren looking at you with honey eyes, sparkling shy dips of nectar—it was...
It was not at all what you’d thought. 
It was revolting. 
It was an antithesis come to life.
It made your skin crawl with the unnatural feeling of it all. 
Kylo Ren’s face was not built to look at you this way, did not contain sickeningly gentle smiles, his hands knew no soft brushes of fingertips.
No, they wielded saber blades and crushed bone and spilled blood.
They tangled in your hair and molded mottled fingerprints into your skin 
His lips were carved from marble that could not comprehend such an innocent up turning, unless it was to mock his opponent.
They sucked permanent brands of ownership into your skin, and made them throb when you thought of him. 
And that was all you would ever want him to do. 
As much as he roused the caged and angry beast that resided in your bones, as much as he lied and withheld and left you to wake alone—
You couldn’t bear this bastardized, cheap imitation that stared at you sweetly.
That was not your Commander. 
That was not your Kylo Ren.
And you would not have him any other way.
That thought sat heavy with you and called to life something in the depths of your being. A fire, red and electric sparked to life. You recalled the vision he’d shown you. Recalled his words echoing:
“All I see is a whore who has no idea what she’s getting herself into.” 
You felt yourself slip into the memory of his hands burying themselves in your flesh. The image of yourself—ruined, marked, and so clearly his—was crashing to the surface of your thoughts like whitecapped waves on a stormy sea. The ache in your neck returned, as though his hands were wrenching your head back to make you watch as he split you in half with his cock. You saw it in incredible detail, the veins of his length sinking into you to the hilt in one long roll of his hips. It stung and made your nerves sing with the pain of taking him. 
It was delicious. 
It fed you the pit inside you like meat thrown to a starving beast. 
This was how he was meant to be taken: painful in his beauty, lovely in his destruction. 
His skin was so warm when he pressed your back to his chest and growled in your ear: 
“So desperate for your Commander’s cock, aren’t you?” 
And yes, of course you were, of course you always were because really had you ever felt complete or whole without him filling you to the brim? But it wasn’t just his cock you needed buried in you. No, you craved him in a way that transcended your physical being. 
Separate. That’s what he told you, that there was something more to you than just your body that could exist outside of yourself, could slip into his head and find him even when you were dreaming. 
And you were desperate for the feeling of his thoughts. For his mind, for whatever it was that let you hear him whispering all the things he could never say aloud. 
His voice in your head was the only thing that soothed the churning in your guts, it was like salve on a burn, cooling like the mint of his breath. The steady beat of his blood the only thing that truly set you at ease. 
Yes, that was your Kylo Ren. 
Possessive and withholding, saying everything in brief glances and the twitch of of jaw. Complex and often painful and perfect. 
You wanted him that way.
And you needed to hear him. 
You couldn’t stand the silence any longer.
Kylo? 
The single word echoed across whatever void your mind was inhabiting, crosses bounds to seek out something on the other end. 
You waited and wanted and— 
And then you were not so alone in your head anymore.
But the meeting room was coming back into focus and everyone was staring directly at you. The large holoprojector in the table’s center showed the first, familiar graphics of your portion of the presentation. From across the table, Lem was staring at you, brows furrowed and questioning. 
“Right,” you said, making your way to the front of the room.
You felt as though you were back in the academy, bland and boring faces all staring up at your false smile. You tried not to focus on them too hard. “As the delegate from the First Order, I’ll naturally be making the announcement of endorsement. This will be submitted to Mr. Alba for review by the end of the week along with the Order’s formal statement of apology.” 
You nodded and the projection moved on, showing the next set of animations, “Now, as I said, these will be submitted at the end of this week, so if there’s any—”
There was a hand sliding up your thigh. It was distinct and massive and coated in leather, the feeling of it so incredibly acute under your clothing you almost choked in shock. But when you slapped a hand down, there was nothing but empty air. 
The crowd for the most part seemed not to have noticed your pause, too caught up in whispered conversations to the side or staring blankly at the tabletop, so you cleared your throat, “If there’s anything you’d like to be included that should be given to me by tomorrow evening at the latest.” 
Your heart was pounding in your chest, the pulse of it clear all the way to your fingertips. Taking a shaky breath you continued to go over the list of other asinine requests, falling easily into a familiar rhythm. Presentations like this were half your job back on the Finalizer. It was home turf, and you were able to flick on autopilot long enough too— 
What was that? you asked incredulously into the void of your mind
Silence echoed, and you glanced briefly around the room, though thankfully you’d looked down at your notes when the hand returned. This time much, much higher. The unmistakable feeling of leather catching on the edge of your panties made your jaw drop. 
You called. 
Kylo’s voice reverberated through your skull, his tone was blank but you could feel the strange mixture of amusement and annoyance that was not yours. It was irritating on a level you’d thought impossible. 
Well I’m a bit busy if you hadn’t noticed, you snapped, grinding your teeth when his disembodied scoff graced your ears. 
You’d think it might be one of the most alluring things you’d ever heard if the stares of so many faceless campaign staffers weren’t pinning you down at the same time.  
Hmm, he hummed, unconcerned or unbothered by whatever was going on outside of the little world that consisted of just the two of you. 
His hand—because that’s what it had to be, his hand, somehow—curled under the hem of your panties, ripping the elastic to the side where it dug painfully into your skin. 
Stop, you hissed it, spat the word at him and tried to will away the fingers that pulled the meat of your thighs apart. 
But they only spread your legs further, a rush of cold air hitting your cunt and tensing your stomach as his fingers drew up up up— 
You’ll just have to keep quiet, won’t you?
And, of course, since you’ve never been all that good about following orders, the second he plunged two, impossibly thick fingers deep into your pussy, your voice caught in your throat. The garbled half cough half moan half wounded animal cry made every head in the room turn to face you.
Even Atreus, whose dead, white blue eyes locked in on your face and never blinked.
You froze, struggling to recall your place as Kylo worked his unseen fingers father into you, coaxing a wave of slick heat to drip from your core. Your hands bunched into fists, nails digging crescent moon holes into the skin of your palm in an effort not to gasp when he hit that lovely spot inside and made your knees threaten to give out. 
Don’t stop, now. Unless you’d like them to know what a little whore you are, Kylo growled from somewhere deep inside you. 
You caught your breath, plastering a smile on your face and taking a sip from the glass of water being offered to you. 
“My apologies, where was I?”
Shuffling through your notes, you picked up where you’d left off with proper terms to use when addressing members of the Order. You tried not to move, focusing squarely on the projection and schooling your expression—at least you hoped you were. Atreus’ stare never left you now. Like he could smell the lie on your face. Or the way your pussy gushed with ever renewed thrusting of Kylo’s leather fingers, the ridges creating a sinful drag against your walls. 
Well if I’m a whore then what are you? 
From whatever corner of your mind he was lurking in, Kylo chuckled softly. 
Much worse, he mused. 
You bit back a scream when his thumb found your clit, rubbing swift circles with the smooth material. 
But in your head, your voice rang free, and you let out the string of curses you’d been holding back, voice cracking into a whine when he added a third finger. And just as he spread you open, scissored your entrance and glided against your walls, something else opened too, gaped wide and you spilled into it.  
You could see him, but it was a different him, from a different time, walking the halls of the Finalizer. His boots ran out against the durasteel until they came to an abrupt halt and silence filled the corridor. There was a slight tremor in his hand, a minuscule shaking as he gripped his thigh and fell back against the wall, breath coming heavy through his mask. 
It was practiced, the movement of his hand that fumbled with the layers of his robes until his cock sprang free, hard and leaking and with a lovely red flush to the head. Your mouth watered at the sight of his hand stroking long and fast along the shaft, thumb teasing his tip and collecting the little beads of precum that glistened there. 
This is what you do to me, he said. I hear all of it. Every thought you have. I hear how badly you want my cock pounding into you and my hand on your throat and— 
He groaned in your head, the same way you knew he must have in whatever memory you were viewing. Distantly, you could just barely feel the movement of his hand as he jerked himself, hips bucking up into his fist. 
You were not faring much better. The words kept tumbling out of your mouth, sometimes trailing off on a particularly hard thrust of his fingers. Your head spun with this new confirmation. He’d heard all of it. Every frustrated thought, every time you’d goaded him in meetings and hallways and when you’d lie awake— or not so awake—and think about how much you maybe, probably, almost certainly didn't hate him. Not that you hadn’t known, that he could hear you. Not that you hadn’t suspected that it had always been him, not some imaginary replication. That was very clear, but now. Now you had the truth. Now you knew for certain. 
Kylo Ren had always been more than just a dream. 
For so long he had watched you crumbling from afar and said nothing.
And who knew how long he intended to keep you in the dark. 
If there wasn’t a target on your back right now, would you have ever found out?
Kylo, you gasped the words in your head as his thumb sped up in its rhythm on your clit and his fingers stroked your walls, what is this?
You needed to know. You deserved to know. 
And you could feel the words. They were there, right on the tip of his lovely pink tongue, about to find their way past the crooked edges of his teeth, lips loose in the pleasure of you. But the burst of white that clouded your vision and finally made your knees buckle drowned out any truth he may have spared you. Your combined releases flowed thick like heavy metal through your veins as you felt the pulse of him slowly fading from your mind, slipping from your grasp. 
Your hand shot out to grab the table edge, holding yourself upright as everything in your mind went blessedly, horribly quiet and the room grew much louder. Time was unclear to you. The projections showed you’d managed to get through over half of your presentation, but you called none of it. 
Lem was standing up now, walking briskly over to you with a hand on your back and another under your elbow. The fingers in your cunt had disappeared, leaving you feeling empty and cold as your slick stuck to the inside of your thighs. 
“Ah, I believe our financing presentation is up next,” Lem called out, motioning quickly for the team to take over and leading you back to your seat. 
When you were safely sat back in the chair, you felt his stiffly gelled hair brush your cheek. It smelled overpoweringly of apricots and vanilla. Too sweet. 
“Are you alright?” he whispered. 
The concern in his voice was evident, but you were lost in the past few minutes and too frustrated by the silence in your head to appreciate it. 
“Fine,” you mumbled back and turned your head back to the blank table. 
You didn’t look at him as he rushed back to his place by Gahl, who’s gaze never shifted your way. Unlike his advisor. Even now the slip of a man in his dark suit and red tie stared at you down his nose like it was the barrel of his blaster. 
Like he was taking aim. 
You swallowed and tried to go back to that space where time did not exist and your head was not so empty, but it didn’t not come. 
Instead, you sat and listened and hoped you wouldn’t leave a damp spot on the cushions when you left. 
***
There were a lot of rules in negotiations. 
The First Order made sure its best and brightest had them all carved onto the backs of their hands before they ever set foot in the situation room. When you closed your eyes, you could see the words flashing in your mind. You knew them better than you knew yourself. But maybe that wasn’t really saying much. You’d been discovering quite a lot of personal details recently you weren’t previously aware of. 
Though, that was besides the point now. 
Now all you could think of was that the number one rule to a successful negotiation, was to always know more than your opponent. 
Knowledge was your strength, knowledge was your red crackling lightsaber, knowledge was your fist closed, throat crushing Force. 
That was how you came out on top, by constantly keeping the upper hand—by always having an ace in your metaphorical back pocket. 
But right now, you were losing.
And the frustration of it was going to consume you. 
Because you didn't know what or how or why Kylo Ren was in your head. In fact, you weren’t even sure if it was your head he was in. It felt much deeper than that now. And no matter how hard you tried, you couldn’t keep him out. Whatever you’d done, whatever you’d let in that night on the sand with the sea standing witness, you would never be able to take it back. 
Kylo Ren was a liar. That you knew, because you were a liar too. 
Knowledge was your power, but lies were your currency. They were what you traded at the table, they were what slipped the easiest from your tongue and made sure you walked away from a deal with more than you’d come in with. 
And Kylo Ren was not in the business of negotiations, so there was nothing you could ever offer that would pry his jaw open and spill all his secrets. Nothing that could persuade him to tell you what exactly had taken root in your chest when you’d accepted him, took him inside and wanted to keep him there. 
But you needed to know. 
The desire to understand consumed you and every thought in your head. The same head that found itself clunking against a new desk in a new office with the same unending dissatisfaction. 
Lem had left you a few hours ago, setting you up in his workspace with a glass of water and a concerned smile. You knew you were being unnecessarily rude to him, and had you been less shaken, you might have felt some guilt over it. 
Now you were staring up at your datapad, document resolutely blank, and unable to think of anything other than the way Kylo’s skin reflected the light off the ocean or how his hair curled into little ringlets when it was soaked through and dripping onto your face and— 
You groaned, knocking your forehead into the desktop and squeezing your eyes shut against the barrage of images and the strange, uncomfortable ache they incited. You rested your head on your arms and tried to block out the light of the office, let yourself drift and tried to recall...well what you weren’t sure. 
The Force always seemed so far away, so fantastical that you weren’t ever truly convinced it was real. Not until you’d seen it first hand, watched the bodies of countless ‘troopers dragged from the hallways with not a mark on them. It simply wasn’t something anyone talked about, not at the Academy, and certainly not when you started working under Hux. 
It was...energy, you knew that much. And it was in everything, everyone you supposed, though stronger some than others. You knew it could be used for more than just making objects float around, although for what other purposes you weren’t entirely certain. It certainly wasn’t something you’d ever been able to use. 
But you thought it must have a hand in this, whatever it was that let you see, hear, taste, feel the Commander even when he was so far from you. Somewhere deep in the dusty corners of your mind, you knew that this would always be the case from now on. That even with light years in between, he’d only ever be a hair's breadth away—a whisper of his name or a beat of your heart. 
It was hard to swallow that notion. Hard to comprehend that you would never be alone in your skin. Never would you feel so lacking. What a cruelty, you thought, that it had taken so long. That you had been born into this world incomplete. Your Commander would call that a weakness, but really wasn’t he just as unfinished as you. There was still some gap in him waiting to be filled.
So, then, why couldn’t you find him like he could find you?
You didn’t have the gifts he did, you couldn’t make doors fly from their hinges or break bone with just a twitch of your fingers. And maybe that was the problem. Maybe it always would be. 
Voices from the hall broke you from your stupor. Two of them, the first old and grating, the second slick like oil that left a bad taste in your mouth—the representative and his advisor. You’d recognize them anywhere now. 
“...well I’d say that a drink is in order,” Gahl was saying, trailing off as they walked further from Lem’s office. 
“Sir, we shouldn’t be leaving—”
Atreus spoke that time, the sound of it trickling like cold water down your spine. Thankfully, the representative spoke over him. 
“Lem is here, he’ll take care of things.”  
A hand slapped the closed door currently keeping you hidden as they passed. You stayed still at the desk until the footsteps had completely petered out, listening to the expensive click of their hard soles die away into silence. Until now it had not occurred to you how close they were. How close the blade was to striking. You let out a breath and looked around. Everything seemed a bit more foggy than usual. Then, from across the room, you heard it—a soft creaking. And when you looked up, the door to Lem’s office was slowly falling open on its hinges. 
Like it was pulled by some invisible hand. 
And you felt the same tugging, the same formless compulsion, the same ghosting over your flesh. 
Across the hall, another door was drifting open by degrees, revealing a meticulously kept office with a shiny gold name plate:
Atreus.
Slowly, you let yourself be pulled—a puppet on strings—walking noiselessly across the corridor. In the doorway you paused, staring at the intricate black lettering. You wanted answers, and something told you this is where you’d find them. 
Into the belly of the beast. 
You took a careful step over the threshold, the air honey-thick and clinging to your skin. The office was spotless, not a paper out of place as you circled around the massive desk and ran your hands up the array of drawers. Each one was furnished with an ornate golden handle that glimmered in light from the hall. 
To your right, a drawer slid open just an inch or two. You watched, eyes wide, as it shuttered of its own accord out of place. And your hand similarly seemed to have a mind of its own, reaching out to grasp the handle and reveal it’s contents. 
Inside, nestled atop of a stack of folders was a small, black notebook. At first glance, it seemed innocuous. Not many people used pen and paper these days. But then the space around it started to shimmer, locking your gaze until the world outside it turned hazy. Shaking, your hand reached out fingertips brushing the leather bound cover. You bit your lip, teeth worrying the flesh as you sat on the floor and pulled the book into your lap. The ragged edges of each page caught on your nails when you flipped them open. 
Written in small, messy scrawl, was page upon page of notes. Words ran off the lines, and continued through the margins, most too minuscule or smudged to be legible. Multiple times, the Commander’s name was scratched in between sentences, angry obsessive markings that made your eyes sting. But you kept skimming, letting your hand be guided along. 
Until suddenly the pages stopped turning. 
And you stared down in horror. 
In the awful, disgusting script, was your name circled, underlined and bolded at the top of the paper. Thin, curving, inked arrows drew lines across the other mismatched text and you slapped a hand over your mouth to stifle the grating, garbled sound that threatened to escape your chest. 
There, the words stood out clear as day among the mess of lines.  
Bond. 
Your brain hadn’t even begun to register the implications of this, but you knew. 
This was the answer you’d been searching for. 
And you had no time to process it, because footsteps from the hall were approaching, quick and hard soled. Your eyes went wide and you scrambled to close the drawer and shove the book into your jacket pocket. Knees tearing on the carpet, you tucked yourself into the space under the desk and held your breath. 
Silence rang out in the tiny room. 
From outside, you heard the footsteps grow louder, closer, and finally come to a halt right in the doorway.

[Confessing Voice]
"Under the glimmering lights I was only watching your radiance. I'll place everything I wish to tell you in this song."
This is doing a rerun on the ENG server so what better time to post a translation on it than now? Maybe it'll encourage people to get the card. But I'm also curious about what people feel regarding the differences between the versions.
Does the Asian version seem more quiet with charged undertones while the English version is more physical? It reminds me of reviews I've read about different actors' takes on the Phantom of the Opera lol.
NOTE: This is the JP version with CN subbed lines because I needed to keep the literary reference with the song he sings.
[True Love Date]
I was meticulously checking the first broadcast of Miracle Finder for the New Year in the editing room.
It was an important broadcast related to our sponsors and our ratings this year. I looked over the show's contents with especially strict eyes.
Editing Staff: We've edited this 12 times already...
Everyone's line of sight gathered on me. They were waiting for me to give the OK.
MC: I think it's good this time. We're done with this!
Cheers rose. Looking at everyone who worked hard through consecutive all-nighters I felt bad.
MC: Good job everyone. I'll be generous with the project rewards so look forward to that!
Editing Staff: President, the person we need to thank the most is Professor Xu Mo.
I showed a confused expression.
Editing Staff: I secretly contacted Professor Xu Mo when we kept on redoing this. He gave me a lot of advice even though he was busy...
I looked at my phone screen in surprise. Two weeks earlier---
~~~
His face crossed my mind when I was troubled over this current project.
My hand moved on its own to call Xu Mo. It started to become a habit to contact him whenever I had problems.
Xu Mo picked up after several rings.
MC: Xu Mo? Are you busy right now? There's something I'd like to ask you...
Static crackled from the other side of the call. After a while, I heard Xu Mo's voice.
Xu Mo: I'm sorry but lately... I've been busy.
His tone was calm but also distant. It wasn't from exhaustion. I felt a coldness from somewhere.
MC: Don't worry. It wasn't anything serious, so...
Xu Mo: Mm. If it's nothing then I'm going to end the call.
MC: Okay...
Xu Mo didn't say anything further. That was more than enough to make me feel the distance between us.
MC: Wait!
MC: Um... you might be busy, but take care of yourself. Bye bye.
Just when I thought there was rough breathing it suddenly fell quiet. Hearing a monotone beeping, I came back to myself. Xu Mo had already ended the call.
MC: Did he hear my last words...?
Looking at the ended call I was struck by a strange feeling.
Maybe I was thinking too much? His words and speech was cold like never before.
MC: What am I thinking? Xu Mo is just busy...
Although I tried telling myself that I couldn't help but feel uneasy somewhere.
I shook my head and drove away my negative emotions. I relied too much on him. This time I needed to solve things by myself.
Editing Staff: ---President, President? Are the credits good like this?
I returned to the present after being lost in my thoughts. The words "Program Supervisor: Xu Mo" on the credits roll jumped into my eyes.
MC: W-what sort of advice did Professor Xu Mo give? Um... how did you get him to help? When was that?
Editing Staff: It was about 2 days ago. We were editing until 4AM but still had to redo everything... It was when you fell asleep on the sofa.
Editing Staff: After I called Professor Xu Mo, he asked me what happened to you, and I replied you were sleeping on the sofa.
Editing Staff: Then he ended the call saying he was busy. But the next morning an email arrived with detailed advice...
Editing Staff: The strange thing is that he wrote for me not to let you know. But you've found out already, so it's fine, right?
I wondered why Xu Mo helped when he had refused once.
(Why did he say not to let me know? Is there a problem if I know about it...?)
I also didn't understand the reason for Xu Mo's sudden coldness.
For a while there were no replies to my texts and his lectures were on break too. It was like he was distancing himself from me on purpose.
My heart clenched when I thought this.
Editing Staff: President, why don't we invite Professor Xu Mo to our New Year's party this time? He looked like he enjoyed our year-end party a few days ago and he helped us out this time too...
I said this while looking at the New Year's party notice I sent to everyone.
MC: He... seems to be busy, so he might not come.
Editing Staff: But he came to the year-end party even though he was busy, right...?
I hurried out of the editing room as if ending the topic.
On the day of the New Year's party, I came with everyone in the company to a newly opened high-class karaoke box in Lianyu City.
It was an elegant, modern, and spacious reserved room. A white grand piano and guitar were placed in front of the karaoke machine, and beside that was a small stage.
I checked my phone's text messages over and over again. A message from 3 days ago remained there.
Text: Xu Mo, my company's going to have a New Year's party at Petrichor 3 days later. If you'd like, why don't you come?
Text: You looked like you enjoyed singing at the year-end party a while ago, so I thought I'd invite you this time too. But if you're busy then please don't hesitate to refuse.
Even though the message was definitely sent there was no response. I sighed with worry and disappointment.
Yue Yue: President, why have you been staring constantly at your phone? Work is done for today!
Yue Yue quickly stole my phone, randomly touching the screen, and then placed it in front of herself.
MC: Hey, my phone...
I stretched out my hand but Yue Yue pushed a set of cards to me.
Yue Yue: You don't sing, right? Then let's play cards!
The company members around us gathered in interest. I had no choice but to pass the time playing cards with everyone.
Xu Mo's house---
The phone rang and a message arrived. It was from [NAME].
Xu Mo hesitated slightly and then picked up the phone. However, the message was just numbers and letters and he didn't understand what she wrote.
What was this? Xu Mo's expression became severe.
He searched on the internet and tried various methods but he couldn't decipher it. He felt a sense of frustration.
He wondered why she had sent this message.
Was she angry at being treated coldly? Or was it a demand for a reply to her New Year's party invitation...?
Xu Mo dialed her phone from his landline. However, only an automated voice saying "This phone has been turned off" came.
Xu Mo: What is wrong with me?
Xu Mo: When did I start caring about these conventions?
For a while, Xu Mo stared at the message which came from the girl 3 days ago. It was written with her usual detailed and kind words.
At the beginning, his objective was just to get close to her. But the closer he got the more he was drawn to her for some reason.
Xu Mo: Didn't I already decide to leave her life?
Why did he help her again even though he refused her once? Why was his heart unsettled from this incomprehensible message?
The intense pain in Xu Mo's heart insistently told him the reason. That over there was an answer he couldn't escape even if he desperately averted his eyes.
The moment the door to the karaoke room opened Xu Mo faintly understood the answer.
That he couldn't leave her.
~~~
MC: Xu Mo! You came?
Her clear eyes widened roundly and she looked at him. The person reflected in those eyes was him alone.
Xu Mo suddenly placed a hand on his chest. A thin thread was tightly squeezing his heart.
He sighed.
Forget it, he would be foolish once more with this foolish girl.
Xu Mo entered the room and sat beside her naturally.
MC: Weren't you busy?
MC: Erm, nevermind. You didn't reply so I didn't think you'd come.
Even under the dim lights he could clearly see her emotions.
There was joy and doubt.
He swallowed back the words he was about to say and softly stroked her hair.
Xu Mo: Sorry. I couldn't get through to your phone so I came here.
MC: You couldn't get through?
She looked down and searched the top of the sofa before showing him the phone, biting her lip awkwardly.
MC: I accidentally turned it off...
Xu Mo smiled lightly with some exasperation. Light and shadow were jumbled together in his eyes.
Xu Mo: Silly.
She gave a pure laugh and then, covering her face, her eyes darted around.
MC: Were you worried about me?
Xu Mo: Yes.
Xu Mo approached her and nodded without hesitation.
Yue Yue: Huh? It's Professor Xu Mo? President, you should have told us if the professor was coming.
MC: Uh... that's because...
Xu Mo: I heard everyone was having a New Year's party so I came without an invitation. I'm not interrupting, am I?
Yue Yue: No way. I was moved when I heard you singing at the year-end party. Everyone wants to hear it again!
Yue Yue said this and then ran back to the stage again to sing enthusiastically with Anna.
Xu Mo: Why aren't you singing together with them?
MC: Huh? I... don't sing much.
Xu Mo: I know. But I'd like to hear it.
My face turned red at Xu Mo's unexpected words.
MC: You're planning on teasing me again, aren't you...
The corners of Xu Mo's lips rose and then he sighed.
Xu Mo: It's true I was worried about you. It's also true that I want to hear you sing.
Xu Mo: Everything is true.
His casual words resounded in my heart more than any other noise in the room.
Yue Yue started singing a sad love song with Anna who was still on the stage.
Anna: Did you really throw away those glittering days...
Yue Yue: I had many dreams in those long nights. Don't remember me. One day you will also know pain...
Xu Mo looked at the words showing on the screen. The flickering light was reflected in his eyes.
The lively karaoke party on top of the stage repeated and, below the stage, everyone else amused themselves with games.
Seeing that Xu Mo had come everyone persistently invited him to join their game.
Gu Meng: Next is the improved version of Spin the Bottle! Whoever this beer bottle points to has to answer everyone's question. If they can't answer with the truth then as penalty they need to drink all this alcohol!
When Gu Meng clapped her hands the editing staff carried over a tray with five cups of whiskey.
Colleagues: This is overdoing it!
Looking at the lined up drinks, I became worried. I would get drunk from just one cup, so if I drank them all I might collapse.
That reminded me, I hadn't seen Xu Mo drink before. I looked at him inquisitively.
Xu Mo nodded and patted the back of my hand.
The beer bottle began to spin and then pointed at Gu Meng.
Yue Yue: Do you have someone you like?
Yue Yue, who had joined the circle at one point, began the questions. At that first question... everyone's eyes gathered on Gu Meng.
Gu Meng glared lightly at Yue Yue and then reluctantly nodded.
Cheers rose. Gu Meng spun the bottle as if trying to avenge herself. This time the bottle pointed at Xu Mo and stopped.
Yue Yue: Professor Xu Mo, is there someone you like in this room?
Gu Meng: How about trying another question?
Yue Yue: That's why I said "in this room"!
Xu Mo smiled and nodded decisively.
Xu Mo: There is.
That answer was so surprisingly clear that the area became quiet. After that cheers exploded and Gu Meng whistled.
My heart was already racing the second Yue Yue asked that question.
The person Xu Mo liked was in this room... My ears turned red and my mind went blank.
I unconsciously brought my hand back but Xu Mo grabbed it firmly.
Xu Mo: Why is your face red?
MC: Erm, uh... it's because of the drinks!
Xu Mo: But... it doesn't seem like you've drank anything yet.
MC: Umm, it's because it's hot then?
Looking at me as my voice gradually became smaller, Xu Mo chuckled beside my ear.
Yue Yue: Okay, next is Professor Xu Mo again!
The beer bottle pointed at Xu Mo again and stopped. This time Gu Meng restrained Yue Yue and asked a question.
Gu Meng: Who is the person you said you liked?
Everyone held their breath and stared at Xu Mo.
My heart wouldn't stop pounding. I looked down and reflexively pulled back the hand that was held by Xu Mo.
Xu Mo smiled, as if he understood something, and drained the drinks one after another.
Everyone was a bit disappointed and began to spin the bottle again.
I secretly glanced at him out of the corner of my eye. He looked drunk and even his ears were red.
MC: Xu Mo, are you okay?
He nodded his head and brought his lips to my ear. His hot breath and the smell of alcohol drifted around me and it felt ticklish.
Xu Mo: I'm fine, although... you still owe me an answer.
MC: I...
I was at a loss for an answer and, at last after panicking, I fell silent. I just concentrated on touching my hair and hiding my discomposure.
Maybe it was because of the drinks or maybe the atmosphere of the place, but Xu Mo became talkative and his eyes were hazy.
Yue Yue: It's finally the president's turn!
Yue Yue and Gu Meng exchanged looks and then came up to me together.
Gu Meng: Who's the person important to you? Please be specific.
MC: How come I'm the only one who has to be "specific"?
Yue Yue: You have to keep to the rules. It's useless to try and run!
The person most important to me--- I looked at Xu Mo shyly and then breathed in deeply.
MC: That person showed me a world I didn't know about until now.
MC: He's warm but not oppressive. He's calm but not melancholic. He's a person that's like a clear sky and a deep fog.
MC: He also notices the slightest change in my feelings and taught me the laws of this world.
MC: Whenever I'm lost he leads me forward with a gentleness that surrounds me.
I sunk into my memories and continued to talk by myself, not noticing how beside me Xu Mo placed his glass down, furrowed his brows, and bit his lip...
MC: He is... a very, very important person to me.
Finished talking about my heart, I gave a deep sigh.
Colleague A: For the president to talk so passionately means that "man" isn't here, right? If he was here, then you wouldn't say this, huh~.
Yue Yue: I wanna know who it is!
MC: Hey now! Enough with the chatter, let's move on...
Everyone unanimously guessed at the "man" I talked about. Xu Mo remained silent and raised his glass, taking a mouthful of his drink.
Despite the game resuming Xu Mo seemed strange somewhere. It was like his cheer up to now had disappeared.
MC: Maybe he's drunk? He drank a lot earlier...
MC: I've never seen him drunk. I'm sure it'd be cute.
I stood in front of the sink, thinking about how he'd look drunk, and giggled.
~~~
The moment I stepped out into the hall to return to the room my arm was suddenly grabbed by someone. I was held against a sturdy chest with a force I couldn't fight against.
I was dumbfounded. The scent of summer grass and the smell of faint alcohol surrounded me.
When I came back to myself I was held tightly to Xu Mo. My back was against the wall and one of my arms was caught by him.
MC: Xu Mo...
My heart raced and I didn't know what to do.
Xu Mo looked at me with empty eyes.
Xu Mo: Is that person so important to you?
MC: Huh?
Xu Mo: Tell me. Who is that person?
Xu Mo suddenly came close, speaking in a censuring tone.
(Hold on. Didn't he hear me talk? Or... did he misunderstand?)
I looked up at Xu Mo. Complicated emotions that seemed about to overflow even now were being restrained desperately in his eyes.
MC: You've got it wrong...
Xu Mo: Tell me...
Xu Mo came even closer. The scorching heat of his presence enveloped my surroundings.
It was the first time I saw him with such a scary look. It was so surprising I had no idea what to do. I stared into his eyes and said this.
MC: It's you.
MC: ... The "man" I was talking about is you, Xu Mo. You're my important person.
Xu Mo's eyes became dazed for a second. The smell of alcohol disappeared.
MC: I was talking about you. But... it looks like I caused a misunderstanding...
Xu Mo regained his calm and quietly released my arm.
Xu Mo: I'm sorry. Did I hurt you?
MC: A little...
Xu Mo looked down and rubbed gently at my arm. I couldn't see his expression but his warmth reached up to my ears.
When we returned to the room everyone was still excited. My heart raced just from remembering what happened earlier.
Pressing on my chest, I told myself to "calm down". Then, so that he wouldn't drink any more alcohol, I secretly pulled his glass in front of me.
Yue Yue: President, you never sing, right? How about singing 1 song today at least?
Yue Yue held out the mic to me.
MC: Erm! I'll pass...
I looked at Xu Mo and nervously declined.
It wasn't that I was bad at singing. It was just that I wasn't prepared to sing in front of Xu Mo.
Yue Yue: If the president won't sing then I'll have Professor Xu Mo sing!
Hearing that, everyone became even more enthusiastic.
Xu Mo, who was looking at me, nodded. I also wanted to hear him sing.
He gave a soft smile and, holding a glass, went to the stage.
It was at that time that I finally noticed him wearing a black turtleneck and dark purple scarf.
The speckled lights shone on him and how he had a hand casually placed in his pocket. A languid and alluring atmosphere was brought out.
Xu Mo set his glass down. Then, after thinking a little, he came to me and nonchalantly took my hand and returned directly to the stage again.
He wasn't using a strong force, but there was a sense of pressure that brooked no refusal.
Before I knew it, he slotted his body against mine and placed his chin on my shoulder. The aroma of the alcohol mixed with a refreshing fragrance which was like grasslands after the rains stopped.
Xu Mo: What would you like to sing?
MC: ... Do I have to sing?
Xu Mo: I want to hear you sing.
MC: You won't be shocked after hearing my singing, right?
I raised my head and said this, pursing my lips.
Xu Mo: Then... why don't we try it?
His mouth came close to my ear and he said this in a low voice. I nodded in a dazed manner with a mind gone hazy from the alcohol.
Xu Mo operated the karaoke machine and a mellow melody rang out.
His palm covered my hand. It was a large hand which seemed to cover my hand and the mic together.
Something like a weak current seemed to run through my entire body from his dry palm...
His eyes stared straight at me... straight into the depths of my heart.
Something like a decision was reflected in those eyes.
Xu Mo: When I fall in love, it will be forever.
It was a low enrapturing voice, like a late autumn wind or the swelling night ocean. He sang with his heart in it.
That voice knocked on the door to my heart.
Memories came into my mind one after another.
The first time we met and his beautiful face under a dazzling light. The time we met in a movie theatre at midnight. That golden-colored picnic. That rainbow after the rain lifted...
All those memories rode on that singing voice and slowly flowed throughout the sparkling room.
MC: And the moment---
MC: I can feel that you feel that way too---
As we sang we came even closer together and our hands continued to remain touching.
From the beginning until the end, Xu Mo looked at me with a constant smile and eyes that held expectation.
Xu Mo: It turns out a song can be this short.
The song ended and we got off the stage.
MC: Xu Mo, you really do sing well!
Xu Mo's lips curved and he said this with mischievous eyes.
Xu Mo: Oh? Can I believe... the words of a little liar?
MC: Huh, what do you mean?
Xu Mo: I was actually looking forward to your shocking singing.
I remembered how I said earlier "You won't be shocked after hearing my singing, right?" and my face turned red.
MC: Who asked you to believe in that...
Xu Mo: Then what else have you tricked me on?
Xu Mo flicked my forehead with a finger.
MC: Um... before I said you didn't have to come if you were busy, but to be honest I really wanted you to come.
I looked at Xu Mo and, while thinking this and that, spoke awkwardly.
Xu Mo was surprised. Flickering light surged up violently in his eyes and I saw him swallow, Adam's apple bobbing.
MC: What's wrong?
He gave a long sigh and then spoke in a voice even lower than earlier.
Xu Mo: I won't do that anymore.
He looked apologetically at me.
Xu Mo: Why won't you ask if I've ever tricked you?
I blinked.
MC: Um... of course I know that you've tricked me.
Xu Mo: For example?
MC: You were clearly drunk earlier even though you said you weren't drunk. Even more, you misunderstood me...
Looking at her grumble, Xu Mo was a bit surprised and he laughed quietly. Then he drew in the glass beside his hand and drank a mouthful.
His mind was hazy. Her smile and the spotted lights swayed in front of his eyes.
He thought about how he was surely drunk. But that was fine. Being drunk was better.
The music could continue, the drinks could continue.
That way he could tell himself this. That he was taken in by this atmosphere and the alcohol. And that's what these gentle feelings and hesitation resulted from.
Xu Mo raised his glass and drained it all at once.
~~~
DATE DIARY
Everyone worked really hard for the first show of the new year. Finally, after it took shape, I learned that Xu Mo helped. I thought he had refused to though... Why?
On that day, if I remember correctly, I asked for Xu Mo's help but he refused me coldly. Why did he help me again at the critical moment? I don't really understand Xu Mo.
I thought Xu Mo wouldn't come to the New Year's party but he came on the day of. He said he became worried because I didn't answer my phone. During a game of Spin the Bottle, Xu Mo confessed for the first time that he had a person he liked.
I also talked about the person most important to me. But, because Xu Mo was drunk, he seemed to misunderstand that. I'm someone who rarely sings in front of others but for some reason I ended up in a duet with Xu Mo. There was joy in his eyes.

Mike Ladge | Michael Ladge | Racquetball - Is it Time For a Change?
I have observed the development of the sporting activity from the stand point of owning a racquet club for twenty 9 years and also I have actually seen the dynamic renovation in innovation and also remarkable development in physical skills exhibited by the top gamers. How can they maintain getting better and also much better? I praise them. Nevertheless; as we age, the majority of us can not keep improving. Yet, I see that the age market has actually increasing become older and actually, one of the most typical gamer entering the sport today is one that played ten or fifteen years ago, give up to have a household or job, remembers what a fantastic sporting activity racquetball is and also wishes to play as well as come back right into shape. We can only visualize what that is like for a person that thought he was respectable, runs out form, faced with a larger racquet and a round that is taking a trip much faster than he has ever seen. Pretty inhibiting I would certainly presume and many never come back a second time.
  Dilemma Top - Just how do we make the game fit the vast bulk of gamers who contain those just beginning, those attempting to get their game back, those striving to enhance but slow going, those that simply wish to enjoy the sport or those affordable players who can not devote the moment to play well and remain conditioned. Allow's face it; racquetball is a really requiring sporting activity for those that take it seriously. You can't just walk on the court two or 3 times a month, dip into your height and not experience for a number of days after each match. Eventually individuals begin picking between pain and golf. I directly think that the reason that even more ladies do not play racquetball is because it is so demanding.
Mike Ladge
Maybe the response hinges on creating a degree of play that is less literally demanding yet establishes abilities that are similarly as exceptional as serving the round 150 miles an hour. Those skills being, of course, touch, method, deception, quickness as well as perhaps even slicing the ball if we eliminate the ludicrous "bring guideline". The response might be to reduce the ball down and maintain it in play to develop longer rallies. You might also see more diving from a few of the old individuals if they can obtain close enough every so often. It could likewise enhance tv watching as well as also enable non-players to appreciate watching the sporting activity. I know from taking several non-players to enjoy the sporting activity at its highest degree that they can not adhere to the round much less recognize what is going on as well as they obtain tired as well as do not enjoy it.
  I do not suggest that making another "dead" ball would complete the above. The objective here is to offer slower players more time to reach the round making the rallies commonly last longer as well as much more possibilities for innovative shot option. The sphere must be lively yet slower. Can this be done? I think so. Make the round larger. Perhaps this innovation if improved may also yield another benefit of making the round simpler to see on TV.
  I understand that most of the readers of this are most likely progressed gamers as well as enjoy to see the sport played at its fastest degree as I do however consider yourself in a few years. Your abilities, your speed and your stamina will one day decrease however if the game turned into one of skill greater than stamina then gamers might compete much more effectively at older ages not to mention that there might be some benefits in durability for the elbows, shoulders and also knees.
  This is not a radical suggestion, but a proven one, as one of the globe's earliest as well as possibly most preferred sporting activities, table tennis, recently faced the exact same concerns as racquetball. Table tennis players had actually begun enhancing the thickness of the rapid sponge layer on their paddles, which made the video game excessively quick as well as hard to view on television, so quick that it was essential to make changes to keep the viewer involved. In 2000, the International Table Tennis Federation instituted a number of policies modifications aimed at making table tennis extra sensible as an aired viewer sport. Initially, the 38 mm rounds were formally replaced by 40 mm balls. This increased the ball's air resistance as well as effectively reduced the video game leading to longer rallies and also even more viewer appreciation.

In 2001, the International Table Tennis Federation made an additional adjustment in the video game as well as solution regulation to raise enjoyment as well as passion in the suit, bringing me to racquetball's various other issue
  Problem Number Two - Exactly how do we make the video games extra remarkable, interesting as well as dramatic for the viewer?
  Right here, there is likewise a tested design in table tennis. In order to produce more suspense and enjoyment, they altered from the 21 point video game, change web server each five factors, to 11 factor games, win by two as well as transform offer each two points. This definitely made the video games quicker and also lessened the solution advantage. Suits are played to any odd number of games, generally 5.
  This method of racking up cause faster point fluctuations, it additionally decreases the web server benefit as well as the "win by two" requirement develops added thriller as well as exhilaration for spectators. One more advantage is the flexibility in the number of video games played. It would certainly lend itself to 5 video game solitary removal events and also three game round-robin events. Last but not least, one of the most essential advantage relates to Dilemna Number One, by making the games much shorter, skill ends up being a better aspect than endurance allowing the weekenders, the unconditioned, the newbies, the families, the old people and also with any luck a lot more women to enjoy the video game merely since the sport is a little much less requiring and also much more enjoyable.
  I recognize that a lot of advanced players just by their hostile nature may oppose these concepts just as the Chinese opposed the table tennis modifications. They felt it was an initiative to stop their domination of the sporting activity. However, today China still controls because exceptional ability and athleticism will certainly always succeed equally as it performs in racquetball.
  I invite you to search some table tennis clips on YouTube.com and also see just how the round can be seen even at speeds of over 100 miles per hour and also at long distances, all without the advantage of expert illumination or digital photography. USA Table Tennis, a sporting activity organization encountered many comparable difficulties and also troubles that we deal with today, made changes, has continued to be an Olympic sporting activity considering that 1988 as well as now asserts to be one of the most popular racquet sport on the planet.

efficient cooling system (for overall better quality prints),
preconfigured slicer software so you can get started printing fast (Cura – CREATABLE Edition),
simple user interface consisting of one control wheel for all printer actions,
OLED strips that glow different colors depending on the current state of the printer (Blue – Idle, Green – Currently Printing, Red – Heating), and
an extensive list of compatible printing materials (including ABS, PLA, Glow, Conductive, Color Change, Metallic, Woody, Magnetic, and Silk-like Filaments)
Verdict
Printed several of my own designs and designs I found online with this printer and I must say that I am quite pleased. It worked pretty well out of the box and required some leveling adjustments about a month later (what else is new). The magnetic joints are a nice touch, making the printhead much easier to maintain when the nozzle gets blocked. I Have had the unit for months now. The prints are great, the look much better than what I have seen examples of other units.

Pros
Born from the drive for absolute quality, the Pro2 Plus refines 3D printing for production grade environments. Upgrading and evolving traditional manufacturing.
Verdict
I have paid twice as much money for dedicated vase mode printers to print artificial limb sockets and protective covers that I spent for my Pro 2 plus. I liked it well enough that I bought the smaller version Pro 2 also. I had to make my own 2 mm nozzles, but I’m able to print in vase mode using PETG by programming 309°C in my slicing software. The plastic is moving so fast through the nozzle that this averages 245°C which is perfect. Most printers won’t allow you to print this hot so I’m grateful for this feature. I was afraid that the smaller stepper motors might be an issue but they are truly beasts and they handle these tasks with ease. I love the fact that I can print 2.5 mm wide and .45 mm high which gives me extreme speed for this type of printing. I also love the fact that with 2 nozzles I can go from vase mode to find detailed printing. The touchscreen operation is great. The printer is so quiet you can barely hear it printing. Print interruption recovery is wonderful and I’ve never had that feature on a 3-D printer. Network and Web Cam server capabilities are also features that I will never do without again. The removable bedplate is great because I need to print on the aluminum surface on the back for beads as widest 2.5 mm. I use a spray contact cement on this side for bonding. These heavy beads tend to stick too hard to the printing surface on the opposite side which is the default bed. And while I’m on the subject of this default surface, it is fantastic. I use no glue whatsoever when printing for fine resolution on the side. This printer is truly a work of art. I haven’t experienced any of the problems that I’ve seen other reviews on. Good job Raised 3D!

Summary
Performance and Use 
Pros
Verdict
Whats up all, so today I was really excited because I’m gonna go through and take ten of my 3d printers compare them all tell you which ones I liked which was I don’t like what I like about them what the differences are what might suit your needs and yeah we’re just gonna go through all them so I currently have ten FDM printers and one DLP resin printer so I’m gonna go through all the FDM printers today and there’s a huge 3-d printer sale going on in gearbest so if you want to check out any of these there’ll be a link in the description where you can check out each one I’ll also put just a link to their overall sale page and yeah basically all the 3d printers are on sale right now so if you’re you know trying to figure out which one to buy this might be a good video for you so let’s go inside cuz I didn’t have enough room out here and I got all the 3d printers on the table and let’s go check it out okay guys so check it out I got nine different printers here let me get a higher angle so you can maybe see this better um let’s start off let me just go through and tell you what I got here on the table let’s start here this is a CR 10 s I got an a net a for Delta an FL Sun Delta in the back there I got a TiVo Michaelangelo jg r or a 5 any cubic I three mega TiVo tornado Thor bot buddy couple dual extrusion printer and the any cubic linear plus Delta okay so we’ll start it back here at the CR 10 and we’ll just work our way to the left here now this is the CR 10s I previously had the regular CR 10 and I gave that to my dad for Christmas I’ve also had several clones of the CR 10 like you know like the team or trader over there but I’ve had the trunk see what is it the x3 I think it’s called I also had the a net e 10 and the a net e 12 both of them I don’t currently have but they’re all very good machines but the CR 10 out of all the this and the TiVo definitely do it the best that’s why I kept this one the regular CR 10 is great especially if you’re trying to save a little money you do get extra features on this one so the extra features you get with the S model is you get a filament run-out sensor you get a power resume so like if I accidentally unplug it or if after that you know if the power goes out or something I can just restart it also too we get dual z-axis work threaded rods and motors so it’s a little more stable but it basically the print quality is basically the same you get very very very good print quality on the CR 10 and how I’m gonna say how good everything prints is I’m gonna compare it to the C okay I feel like the CR 10 right now is kind of like the benchmark so this is something I printed on the CRC our 10 its Yoda benches and pretty cool he’s like Yoda group Benji yeah really really bizarre well you know I said printed printing this really good I didn’t do any clean up after like it’s still a little you know burrs on it and stuff cuz I haven’t ripped off the brim either this literally got done printing 10 minutes ago before I started reporting all the printers on the table okay so the things that logo out the CR 10 first off it can print huge it’s got you know a huge build volume it prints great quality obviously things I don’t like though is you can’t really print abs unless you mod it there the bed does not like to get hot enough and the extruder can but the bed just does not really get over like 70 degrees it’s quite hard to get it over 70 degrees but and I also don’t like how it takes up so much room on the table but that’s good is it you know it’s a big printer so I guess it’s kind of a trade-off but it is very good it’s very stable you don’t really have to do any tweaks once you get it up and running good you just keep it the same like I haven’t had to have retighten the belts I haven’t you basically just level the bed if you move the printer if you don’t move it it doesn’t really go out of whack okay so this one though is like 450 ish with the sale price so it is a little pricier but you’re getting probably the biggest community to behind the printer okay so let’s move onto the next one okay so next we got the a net a for Delta okay now this one comes almost all the way assembled I think it took me a little over an hour and I’ve done reviews on all these if you want to look further into them but this printer I really like it actually it printed really good right out of the box here’s something I printed on it I mean not perfect but not bad and yeah I mean I like how the spool holder too is just like right on top that’s already good to go um I was I’m normally not the biggest fan of a net but I like this one I like this more than the a nut e 12 and the a nut e 10 both of which I’ve had in the past but I don’t have currently um I do not like how it’s just these push buttons oh I prefer the the old knob and stuff like most the printers have but other than that it’s actually surprisingly good quality it’s got belt tensioners already on it you don’t have to print off any parts basically it basically done no modifications to it and it’s printing pretty decent okay next we got another Delta in the back here this one is cheaper it’s definitely way harder to make like this one took me maybe 10 to 12 hours to put together but there is some cool features on this like it has bring this up a bit bear with me here I need to stuff around okay it has an auto level so like you can hear that click so it probes the bed and you know the auto levels you just type in g29 to the start code and based on that is really nice because it’s a very cheap printer that you don’t have I think it’s like a hundred and seventy bucks normally or with sale or whatever that’s very cheap printer there’s also some pretty high quality parks like all these plastic parts are all injection molded there’s not really any printed parts on it I I added a heated bed so it did not come with a heated bed they do also sell a heated bed version but stock one does not that one is a kind of a pain to put together but other than that that’s a pretty good printer it’s got pretty good quality on a bed level so it was a plus the wire management is a little crazy like the wires are just like hanging everywhere which I don’t like but other than that you can’t really not get the prints really good next we got this one here this is the jg Aurora a5 now this is one of my new favorite printers I’ve only had this not that long but man I think I like this maybe more doesn’t see our time honestly it prints just as good the quality except this one I can print ABS I can print nylon and I for any high temp material it prints great it got basically this is basically like the same thing as the any cubic ultrabass like you see here on the i3 mega mom so it you know you don’t have to put any adhesive on there or anything um I do think this printer is awesome because unlike the CR 10 how I got the control box to the side and everything everything’s right in here it’s just one solid printer like you could just you could like literally pick it up while it’s printing and it wouldn’t really affect the print now let me show you one of the coolest things about this only turned on okay so you’ll notice a little loud just that one fan but you’ll notice it’s full colored touchscreen I think like literally everything like all printers should have this um I think you know just your standard Marlin you know turn knob just the blue screen it’s really getting old I think it’s 21st century everything should use this this also just like the CR 10 it’s got you can auto resume for after power loss it’s got a filament run-out sensor over here and then I love how like the filaments tucked away like from the front you can’t even see it I’ll also to like I like how it’s all like you know from the back you can’t really you can see it but you can I got a big mess of ABS that got stuck on a film print and I didn’t fix it so ignore that but I like how like you can’t really see the nozzle and everything um this printer though this is probably the best deal in 3d printer right now cuz I think now it’s on sale for like 319 or something and it’s based you’re basically giving a CR 10 that can print ABS the build volume in the z-axis isn’t as high it’s 100 millimeters shorter so you won’t be able print as high stuff but it’s just as big on the X and the y so it’s like 305 by 305 by 300 I think so that’s pretty big okay now one printer that is very similar to this one sorry this is very dirty it was a my garage and it got really dirty I have been using this on a lot those is one of my most used printer this is my any cubic I three mega now this printer it’s it’s honestly it’s like a smaller one of these I think this one came out first I’m not quite sure but basically both these printers you can put them together in five minutes so that is just hands-down freaking awesome but besides that the any cubic I three mega also has the touchscreen the colors aren’t as vivid as the touchscreen on there and also has the filament run-out sensor power on/off and everything I can also print ABS and all those different materials also has this awesome ultra base yeah I think this printer if you don’t need a big printer it’s like what is still pretty big it’s bigger than like your standard like a net eight or a six or anything but if you don’t need like a giant printer this might be the printer to get and I’ve personally dealt with any cubic two different times and both times they were like the best customer service ever so my ultra base my first time I got it came messed up they sent me a brand new or no-questions-asked had it shipped out that day so that is pretty awesome I mean now let’s go here to the back and we got the TiVo michelangelo’s a small little little printer it’s also a very cheap printer one thing about it is it comes basically a 100 percent of samples like you don’t have to do anything you just plug it in it prints actually quite well the only downside is there’s no heated bed I heard they are remodeling it with a heated bed I don’t know if that’s gonna up the price because this printer is just over a hundred dollars if you want something small that doesn’t take up a lot of space and just want it really easy to set up foam your newb this might be a printer for you it doesn’t have a huge build volume but it’s big enough to print you know you’re just you’re right unless you’re not printing something like a face you know you’re gonna be okay I mean it’s still pretty decent-sized it’s just nothing crazy okay next we got maybe the best 3d printer they came out last year I don’t know we got the TiVo tornado now I think the CR 10 was just killing everybody and then a bunch of clones came out of the shower time like that Ian at E 12 a 90/10 the Tron see whatever X 3 or whatever X 5 or whatever it’s called but then this printer came out and they’re like you know they got all the same design same size but they did some changes and I really really really like what they did here they added a AC heating module for the bed so the bed can literally heat up in minutes – like ABS temperatures this printer isn’t the best of printing abs if you enclose it it is but I’ve had some problems I can print ABS on it but sometimes the parts will warp especially if it’s a big print if it’s a small print it’s usually okay but yeah just cuz it’s so big also – if you have it in a hot room that’ll help but this printer is just awesome I love this TiVo Titan extruder this is by far my favorite extruder and they sent a dexter one I haven’t had to use it but it’s all very similar to the CR ten one thing I don’t like about is it does not come with a spool holder so it comes with like an STL file or AG code so you can just print one but they they should have already had that printed for you but yeah I don’t know it just prints I can burn really fast on this notes – like the CR 10 I try not to get it above 60 millimeters a second this one I can easily print at like 70 sometimes 80 if it’s not that complex you know of a design but our sorry of a model but yeah it prints great great quality I’d say just as good quality as the CR 10 I did have some salmon skin effects I think on all the new models so if you’re by now you you won’t have that I think they’d use a different board now but I had to add some TL smoothers they were very cheap but I had to add them to the box so that’s why my control box is open here so maybe I can just show it to you I never put the screws back on but um yeah that’s what come on sorry trying to do this with one hand so those are the TL smothers so they’re very easy they just plug right in so I added those and it eliminated the salmon skin and yeah it just prints beautifully okay so we got two more two printers on the table here this one this one I really like this is the any cubic linear plus I just recently did a review on this it’s got this awesome auto bed level probe so you put this on it’s just a magnet this is it sticks right on whoops right there and then it probes you know but I’m gonna be like beep beep beep it does like 39 spots and then you know then you hit store on the member here it stores it in and then when you go to print it knows where everything is it works perfect and I love this build platform it does have a heated bed and this comes almost all the way assembled I also really like how this ball holder is just on the metal frame right there the power supply you know it’s nice and safe has the on/off switch yeah I just really really really like this one okay so next time we’re gonna go let’s move this one a little okay we got the robot Bonnie couple okay now let me tell you when I first got this printer I thought it was the bee’s knees I was like this thing is so friggin awesome you can print dot two different colors you can mix colors after having it for a month the thing doesn’t work anymore it still turns on and everything but it jams every time I try to print two colors I even changed this whole carriage this guy remodeled this saying he had the same problem but my problems didn’t really change I’m definitely gonna have to do some work on that I was gonna give that one away to my friend but I don’t even I gotta fix it before him and give it to him cuz I feel bad giving it to him so this printer it’s all metal construction everything it would compute to colors it was really cool but after a month it just crapped out on me and I cannot figure it out it’s in the nozzle it uses this a crazy giant giant nozzle you can see there’s a huge mess of stuff on there let me zoom in oh yeah it’s huge it’s like five hundred times the size of a regular nozzle so I need to know how you replace that I don’t know what the inside of the hot end is like they both feed in there in this fan on it is so loud I got if I was gonna keep that I would replace those fans yeah it printed great for like a month and then it just started clogging all the time I don’t know if he just they got buildup in there I was trying to you know I’ve taken good care of it I don’t really know but okay so these are all the printers I have in there I have one more printer that doesn’t fit it’s not that big I just didn’t have any more room on the table so let me go grab that and I’ll show you that and then we can wrap this up okay guys this is the zone star z5 and you have never seen this on my channel that is because I refused to review this one it was so bad it had so many problems right out the box that I didn’t review it and I just salvaged different parts that’s why not everything is here but it is basically absolutely horrendous I have never checked out any other zone star products but I do not want to this was a nightmare to put together it was supposed to be a fast assembly but that’s not even it there was two broken end stops off the box so I had replacement stuff so I replaced them then after replacing I might notice the why and stop the bed can go so far back that it will be printing in midair like you won’t even you know I mean like it’ll be way off here so I had to mod it to pull it forward and it still didn’t work okay so then after I finally got everything set up I replaced it with a bunch of my own parts I turned it on and then it blew a thermistor and I’m like what the heck like right away so I replaced that then it blew another thermistor and then I just said you know what I’m done with this thing this thing is a piece of garbage I replaced four parts had to mod one and it in like okay and then this spooled or you can’t even fit a normal spool of film and I look how then this is like it you cannot put a spool of filament on there so I don’t even know what the point of having that is but yeah it was just terrible we had Auto level sensor so I thought that was cool but I never even got to use it I literally did not I I played with this thing for two days never even got one print off of it so just so you guys know if I get anything I recommend it’s because I recommend it if I don’t like something I’d rather just not even make the review then make a video trashing it so just so you know don’t you know if I say something’s good I’m not lying you guys I will not redo a review on something I do not like so this has been all my printers so let’s go inside I’ll give you a little conclusion of what I think and yeah okay guys so in conclusion which ones these are my favorite which ones I like the best okay so as far as partition style printers go my favourite smaller one is actually the any cubic ie three mega this is probably my most used on the joint it’s filled with just dirty as hell I use it all the time and you can print basically every type of material if anything goes wrong any cubics got great customer service but yeah sometimes it’s just not big enough for the job so sometimes I need something like my CHF back there or my JJ or or a five so the ginger I’ve only had this for like a month the CR ten I’ve had much longer Sanatana can honestly say is super reliable they have the best community ever then more people have the CR ken basically than any other printer so if one thing that really matters to you is being able to get support ask people for help if you’re totally new the CR ten is great the regulars here ten is pretty cheap it’s it’s well not cheap but it’s not as expensive as this one this one’s like 450 he’s still 300 to 350 or so for the regular one but honestly if you’re not gonna be printing huge all the time and you only have that much s but I would get the JJ Aurora because the JJ Aurora is on sale right now for only 319 and you can go almost as big as that and print every material and I honestly like this build platform better doesn’t have as big of a community behind it but I haven’t had to do anything like I literally have not done a single modification since I got this um CR ten though I see you cannot go wrong you lizard these are two of my favorite printers ever but the teamwork tornado also like all three of these are so close the team Oh tornado though I can turn it on and it’s all ready to go boom just like that the Tibor tornado if you get the newer one which if you ordered now yeah if you’re good don’t get one used um I would recommend getting one of the new ones I’ve gearbest if you’re gonna get one because you just affect the bedsheets up so fast and everything is so awesome Tibo also has great customer service they’re one of the only printers that comes with an actual instruction booklet this one’s also quite cheap right now it’s just a little over three hundred they take 325 or 350 of the most but it’s really cheap like when this first came out it was it was more than that as far as Delta printers go I’m gonna say anything from any cubic any cubic kills it if you don’t know how to money for the castle linear plus over there just get the regular castle I did a review on that too it in the past I gave that one to my brother but that printer is awesome and both any cubic they like no matter what you get they have awesome customer service the regular Castle much cheaper this one can do bigger stuff it can do more stuff it’s got a better power supply it can do different types of materials like abs and stuff where your regular one doesn’t have a heated bed and you can’t so if you’re only one we’ve got a budget you like building stuff I get the regular any cubic Castle but if you got extra money definitely get the lay meter plus back here we got the team of Michelangelo that think’s pretty nice but we got I’ve heard that the end or two it has heated bed so I think I’d rather get that but if you’re on a budget that one’s a little cheaper telling like 109 dollars but yeah overall I think your best bets are if you want something smaller get the any cubic I drew mega if you want something bigger and you got the money to spend and you don’t care about printing abs and stuff get the CR ten because having that big community really helps it means a lot but if you want to print all different materials get the JJ Aurora or the T book tornado hey JJ Turner though I have had more success printing abs and stuff the T Bo you can do it but it can be a little finicky so this is probably my sleeper I did not when I got this printer I didn’t know what to think of it and I’ve been blown away by this touchscreen too as well as the i3 is just killer but I love how this is all color and it just looks cool so yeah I could recommend any of these except the Thor BOTS and the zone star z5 don’t get either of those but any of these these are all good printers I’ll put links to all of them but yeah these are like my four favorite is boom boom boom boom and boom so thank you guys for watching I’ll see you later

  1. CREATABLE D3 3D Printer w/Heated Build Plate
Summary
Performance and Use 
Magnetically-Linked Joints: the D3’s magnetically-linked joints make maintenance, storage, and transportation easy
Nozzle-Swapping: the D3’s easy nozzle-swapping feature gives even first-time users the ability to perform routine nozzle maintenance or to replace the nozzle for different materials
Easy Belt-Tension Adjustment: our proprietary lift-block design allows for timing belt tensions to be conveniently adjustable through the lift-block itself, allowing for high quality prints, always
Thermally-Isolated Printhead: nozzle blockage and problems caused by overhang and bridging have been minimized, while print quality has been maximized
Designed to merge into any environment without disrupting your aesthetics and workflow
Pros
light weight (10 kg),
expansive build volume (250φ mm x 200 mm),
efficient cooling system (for overall better quality prints),
preconfigured slicer software so you can get started printing fast (Cura – CREATABLE Edition),
simple user interface consisting of one control wheel for all printer actions,
OLED strips that glow different colors depending on the current state of the printer (Blue – Idle, Green – Currently Printing, Red – Heating), and
an extensive list of compatible printing materials (including ABS, PLA, Glow, Conductive, Color Change, Metallic, Woody, Magnetic, and Silk-like Filaments)
Verdict
Printed several of my own designs and designs I found online with this printer and I must say that I am quite pleased. It worked pretty well out of the box and required some leveling adjustments about a month later (what else is new). The magnetic joints are a nice touch, making the printhead much easier to maintain when the nozzle gets blocked. I Have had the unit for months now. The prints are great, the look much better than what I have seen examples of other units.

Pros
Born from the drive for absolute quality, the Pro2 Plus refines 3D printing for production grade environments. Upgrading and evolving traditional manufacturing.
Verdict
I have paid twice as much money for dedicated vase mode printers to print artificial limb sockets and protective covers that I spent for my Pro 2 plus. I liked it well enough that I bought the smaller version Pro 2 also. I had to make my own 2 mm nozzles, but I’m able to print in vase mode using PETG by programming 309°C in my slicing software. The plastic is moving so fast through the nozzle that this averages 245°C which is perfect. Most printers won’t allow you to print this hot so I’m grateful for this feature. I was afraid that the smaller stepper motors might be an issue but they are truly beasts and they handle these tasks with ease. I love the fact that I can print 2.5 mm wide and .45 mm high which gives me extreme speed for this type of printing. I also love the fact that with 2 nozzles I can go from vase mode to find detailed printing. The touchscreen operation is great. The printer is so quiet you can barely hear it printing. Print interruption recovery is wonderful and I’ve never had that feature on a 3-D printer. Network and Web Cam server capabilities are also features that I will never do without again. The removable bedplate is great because I need to print on the aluminum surface on the back for beads as widest 2.5 mm. I use a spray contact cement on this side for bonding. These heavy beads tend to stick too hard to the printing surface on the opposite side which is the default bed. And while I’m on the subject of this default surface, it is fantastic. I use no glue whatsoever when printing for fine resolution on the side. This printer is truly a work of art. I haven’t experienced any of the problems that I’ve seen other reviews on. Good job Raised 3D!

Summary
Performance and Use 
Pros
Verdict
Whats up all, so today I was really excited because I’m gonna go through and take ten of my 3d printers compare them all tell you which ones I liked which was I don’t like what I like about them what the differences are what might suit your needs and yeah we’re just gonna go through all them so I currently have ten FDM printers and one DLP resin printer so I’m gonna go through all the FDM printers today and there’s a huge 3-d printer sale going on in gearbest so if you want to check out any of these there’ll be a link in the description where you can check out each one I’ll also put just a link to their overall sale page and yeah basically all the 3d printers are on sale right now so if you’re you know trying to figure out which one to buy this might be a good video for you so let’s go inside cuz I didn’t have enough room out here and I got all the 3d printers on the table and let’s go check it out okay guys so check it out I got nine different printers here let me get a higher angle so you can maybe see this better um let’s start off let me just go through and tell you what I got here on the table let’s start here this is a CR 10 s I got an a net a for Delta an FL Sun Delta in the back there I got a TiVo Michaelangelo jg r or a 5 any cubic I three mega TiVo tornado Thor bot buddy couple dual extrusion printer and the any cubic linear plus Delta okay so we’ll start it back here at the CR 10 and we’ll just work our way to the left here now this is the CR 10s I previously had the regular CR 10 and I gave that to my dad for Christmas I’ve also had several clones of the CR 10 like you know like the team or trader over there but I’ve had the trunk see what is it the x3 I think it’s called I also had the a net e 10 and the a net e 12 both of them I don’t currently have but they’re all very good machines but the CR 10 out of all the this and the TiVo definitely do it the best that’s why I kept this one the regular CR 10 is great especially if you’re trying to save a little money you do get extra features on this one so the extra features you get with the S model is you get a filament run-out sensor you get a power resume so like if I accidentally unplug it or if after that you know if the power goes out or something I can just restart it also too we get dual z-axis work threaded rods and motors so it’s a little more stable but it basically the print quality is basically the same you get very very very good print quality on the CR 10 and how I’m gonna say how good everything prints is I’m gonna compare it to the C okay I feel like the CR 10 right now is kind of like the benchmark so this is something I printed on the CRC our 10 its Yoda benches and pretty cool he’s like Yoda group Benji yeah really really bizarre well you know I said printed printing this really good I didn’t do any clean up after like it’s still a little you know burrs on it and stuff cuz I haven’t ripped off the brim either this literally got done printing 10 minutes ago before I started reporting all the printers on the table okay so the things that logo out the CR 10 first off it can print huge it’s got you know a huge build volume it prints great quality obviously things I don’t like though is you can’t really print abs unless you mod it there the bed does not like to get hot enough and the extruder can but the bed just does not really get over like 70 degrees it’s quite hard to get it over 70 degrees but and I also don’t like how it takes up so much room on the table but that’s good is it you know it’s a big printer so I guess it’s kind of a trade-off but it is very good it’s very stable you don’t really have to do any tweaks once you get it up and running good you just keep it the same like I haven’t had to have retighten the belts I haven’t you basically just level the bed if you move the printer if you don’t move it it doesn’t really go out of whack okay so this one though is like 450 ish with the sale price so it is a little pricier but you’re getting probably the biggest community to behind the printer okay so let’s move onto the next one okay so next we got the a net a for Delta okay now this one comes almost all the way assembled I think it took me a little over an hour and I’ve done reviews on all these if you want to look further into them but this printer I really like it actually it printed really good right out of the box here’s something I printed on it I mean not perfect but not bad and yeah I mean I like how the spool holder too is just like right on top that’s already good to go um I was I’m normally not the biggest fan of a net but I like this one I like this more than the a nut e 12 and the a nut e 10 both of which I’ve had in the past but I don’t have currently um I do not like how it’s just these push buttons oh I prefer the the old knob and stuff like most the printers have but other than that it’s actually surprisingly good quality it’s got belt tensioners already on it you don’t have to print off any parts basically it basically done no modifications to it and it’s printing pretty decent okay next we got another Delta in the back here this one is cheaper it’s definitely way harder to make like this one took me maybe 10 to 12 hours to put together but there is some cool features on this like it has bring this up a bit bear with me here I need to stuff around okay it has an auto level so like you can hear that click so it probes the bed and you know the auto levels you just type in g29 to the start code and based on that is really nice because it’s a very cheap printer that you don’t have I think it’s like a hundred and seventy bucks normally or with sale or whatever that’s very cheap printer there’s also some pretty high quality parks like all these plastic parts are all injection molded there’s not really any printed parts on it I I added a heated bed so it did not come with a heated bed they do also sell a heated bed version but stock one does not that one is a kind of a pain to put together but other than that that’s a pretty good printer it’s got pretty good quality on a bed level so it was a plus the wire management is a little crazy like the wires are just like hanging everywhere which I don’t like but other than that you can’t really not get the prints really good next we got this one here this is the jg Aurora a5 now this is one of my new favorite printers I’ve only had this not that long but man I think I like this maybe more doesn’t see our time honestly it prints just as good the quality except this one I can print ABS I can print nylon and I for any high temp material it prints great it got basically this is basically like the same thing as the any cubic ultrabass like you see here on the i3 mega mom so it you know you don’t have to put any adhesive on there or anything um I do think this printer is awesome because unlike the CR 10 how I got the control box to the side and everything everything’s right in here it’s just one solid printer like you could just you could like literally pick it up while it’s printing and it wouldn’t really affect the print now let me show you one of the coolest things about this only turned on okay so you’ll notice a little loud just that one fan but you’ll notice it’s full colored touchscreen I think like literally everything like all printers should have this um I think you know just your standard Marlin you know turn knob just the blue screen it’s really getting old I think it’s 21st century everything should use this this also just like the CR 10 it’s got you can auto resume for after power loss it’s got a filament run-out sensor over here and then I love how like the filaments tucked away like from the front you can’t even see it I’ll also to like I like how it’s all like you know from the back you can’t really you can see it but you can I got a big mess of ABS that got stuck on a film print and I didn’t fix it so ignore that but I like how like you can’t really see the nozzle and everything um this printer though this is probably the best deal in 3d printer right now cuz I think now it’s on sale for like 319 or something and it’s based you’re basically giving a CR 10 that can print ABS the build volume in the z-axis isn’t as high it’s 100 millimeters shorter so you won’t be able print as high stuff but it’s just as big on the X and the y so it’s like 305 by 305 by 300 I think so that’s pretty big okay now one printer that is very similar to this one sorry this is very dirty it was a my garage and it got really dirty I have been using this on a lot those is one of my most used printer this is my any cubic I three mega now this printer it’s it’s honestly it’s like a smaller one of these I think this one came out first I’m not quite sure but basically both these printers you can put them together in five minutes so that is just hands-down freaking awesome but besides that the any cubic I three mega also has the touchscreen the colors aren’t as vivid as the touchscreen on there and also has the filament run-out sensor power on/off and everything I can also print ABS and all those different materials also has this awesome ultra base yeah I think this printer if you don’t need a big printer it’s like what is still pretty big it’s bigger than like your standard like a net eight or a six or anything but if you don’t need like a giant printer this might be the printer to get and I’ve personally dealt with any cubic two different times and both times they were like the best customer service ever so my ultra base my first time I got it came messed up they sent me a brand new or no-questions-asked had it shipped out that day so that is pretty awesome I mean now let’s go here to the back and we got the TiVo michelangelo’s a small little little printer it’s also a very cheap printer one thing about it is it comes basically a 100 percent of samples like you don’t have to do anything you just plug it in it prints actually quite well the only downside is there’s no heated bed I heard they are remodeling it with a heated bed I don’t know if that’s gonna up the price because this printer is just over a hundred dollars if you want something small that doesn’t take up a lot of space and just want it really easy to set up foam your newb this might be a printer for you it doesn’t have a huge build volume but it’s big enough to print you know you’re just you’re right unless you’re not printing something like a face you know you’re gonna be okay I mean it’s still pretty decent-sized it’s just nothing crazy okay next we got maybe the best 3d printer they came out last year I don’t know we got the TiVo tornado now I think the CR 10 was just killing everybody and then a bunch of clones came out of the shower time like that Ian at E 12 a 90/10 the Tron see whatever X 3 or whatever X 5 or whatever it’s called but then this printer came out and they’re like you know they got all the same design same size but they did some changes and I really really really like what they did here they added a AC heating module for the bed so the bed can literally heat up in minutes – like ABS temperatures this printer isn’t the best of printing abs if you enclose it it is but I’ve had some problems I can print ABS on it but sometimes the parts will warp especially if it’s a big print if it’s a small print it’s usually okay but yeah just cuz it’s so big also – if you have it in a hot room that’ll help but this printer is just awesome I love this TiVo Titan extruder this is by far my favorite extruder and they sent a dexter one I haven’t had to use it but it’s all very similar to the CR ten one thing I don’t like about is it does not come with a spool holder so it comes with like an STL file or AG code so you can just print one but they they should have already had that printed for you but yeah I don’t know it just prints I can burn really fast on this notes – like the CR 10 I try not to get it above 60 millimeters a second this one I can easily print at like 70 sometimes 80 if it’s not that complex you know of a design but our sorry of a model but yeah it prints great great quality I’d say just as good quality as the CR 10 I did have some salmon skin effects I think on all the new models so if you’re by now you you won’t have that I think they’d use a different board now but I had to add some TL smoothers they were very cheap but I had to add them to the box so that’s why my control box is open here so maybe I can just show it to you I never put the screws back on but um yeah that’s what come on sorry trying to do this with one hand so those are the TL smothers so they’re very easy they just plug right in so I added those and it eliminated the salmon skin and yeah it just prints beautifully okay so we got two more two printers on the table here this one this one I really like this is the any cubic linear plus I just recently did a review on this it’s got this awesome auto bed level probe so you put this on it’s just a magnet this is it sticks right on whoops right there and then it probes you know but I’m gonna be like beep beep beep it does like 39 spots and then you know then you hit store on the member here it stores it in and then when you go to print it knows where everything is it works perfect and I love this build platform it does have a heated bed and this comes almost all the way assembled I also really like how this ball holder is just on the metal frame right there the power supply you know it’s nice and safe has the on/off switch yeah I just really really really like this one okay so next time we’re gonna go let’s move this one a little okay we got the robot Bonnie couple okay now let me tell you when I first got this printer I thought it was the bee’s knees I was like this thing is so friggin awesome you can print dot two different colors you can mix colors after having it for a month the thing doesn’t work anymore it still turns on and everything but it jams every time I try to print two colors I even changed this whole carriage this guy remodeled this saying he had the same problem but my problems didn’t really change I’m definitely gonna have to do some work on that I was gonna give that one away to my friend but I don’t even I gotta fix it before him and give it to him cuz I feel bad giving it to him so this printer it’s all metal construction everything it would compute to colors it was really cool but after a month it just crapped out on me and I cannot figure it out it’s in the nozzle it uses this a crazy giant giant nozzle you can see there’s a huge mess of stuff on there let me zoom in oh yeah it’s huge it’s like five hundred times the size of a regular nozzle so I need to know how you replace that I don’t know what the inside of the hot end is like they both feed in there in this fan on it is so loud I got if I was gonna keep that I would replace those fans yeah it printed great for like a month and then it just started clogging all the time I don’t know if he just they got buildup in there I was trying to you know I’ve taken good care of it I don’t really know but okay so these are all the printers I have in there I have one more printer that doesn’t fit it’s not that big I just didn’t have any more room on the table so let me go grab that and I’ll show you that and then we can wrap this up okay guys this is the zone star z5 and you have never seen this on my channel that is because I refused to review this one it was so bad it had so many problems right out the box that I didn’t review it and I just salvaged different parts that’s why not everything is here but it is basically absolutely horrendous I have never checked out any other zone star products but I do not want to this was a nightmare to put together it was supposed to be a fast assembly but that’s not even it there was two broken end stops off the box so I had replacement stuff so I replaced them then after replacing I might notice the why and stop the bed can go so far back that it will be printing in midair like you won’t even you know I mean like it’ll be way off here so I had to mod it to pull it forward and it still didn’t work okay so then after I finally got everything set up I replaced it with a bunch of my own parts I turned it on and then it blew a thermistor and I’m like what the heck like right away so I replaced that then it blew another thermistor and then I just said you know what I’m done with this thing this thing is a piece of garbage I replaced four parts had to mod one and it in like okay and then this spooled or you can’t even fit a normal spool of film and I look how then this is like it you cannot put a spool of filament on there so I don’t even know what the point of having that is but yeah it was just terrible we had Auto level sensor so I thought that was cool but I never even got to use it I literally did not I I played with this thing for two days never even got one print off of it so just so you guys know if I get anything I recommend it’s because I recommend it if I don’t like something I’d rather just not even make the review then make a video trashing it so just so you know don’t you know if I say something’s good I’m not lying you guys I will not redo a review on something I do not like so this has been all my printers so let’s go inside I’ll give you a little conclusion of what I think and yeah okay guys so in conclusion which ones these are my favorite which ones I like the best okay so as far as partition style printers go my favourite smaller one is actually the any cubic ie three mega this is probably my most used on the joint it’s filled with just dirty as hell I use it all the time and you can print basically every type of material if anything goes wrong any cubics got great customer service but yeah sometimes it’s just not big enough for the job so sometimes I need something like my CHF back there or my JJ or or a five so the ginger I’ve only had this for like a month the CR ten I’ve had much longer Sanatana can honestly say is super reliable they have the best community ever then more people have the CR ken basically than any other printer so if one thing that really matters to you is being able to get support ask people for help if you’re totally new the CR ten is great the regulars here ten is pretty cheap it’s it’s well not cheap but it’s not as expensive as this one this one’s like 450 he’s still 300 to 350 or so for the regular one but honestly if you’re not gonna be printing huge all the time and you only have that much s but I would get the JJ Aurora because the JJ Aurora is on sale right now for only 319 and you can go almost as big as that and print every material and I honestly like this build platform better doesn’t have as big of a community behind it but I haven’t had to do anything like I literally have not done a single modification since I got this um CR ten though I see you cannot go wrong you lizard these are two of my favorite printers ever but the teamwork tornado also like all three of these are so close the team Oh tornado though I can turn it on and it’s all ready to go boom just like that the Tibor tornado if you get the newer one which if you ordered now yeah if you’re good don’t get one used um I would recommend getting one of the new ones I’ve gearbest if you’re gonna get one because you just affect the bedsheets up so fast and everything is so awesome Tibo also has great customer service they’re one of the only printers that comes with an actual instruction booklet this one’s also quite cheap right now it’s just a little over three hundred they take 325 or 350 of the most but it’s really cheap like when this first came out it was it was more than that as far as Delta printers go I’m gonna say anything from any cubic any cubic kills it if you don’t know how to money for the castle linear plus over there just get the regular castle I did a review on that too it in the past I gave that one to my brother but that printer is awesome and both any cubic they like no matter what you get they have awesome customer service the regular Castle much cheaper this one can do bigger stuff it can do more stuff it’s got a better power supply it can do different types of materials like abs and stuff where your regular one doesn’t have a heated bed and you can’t so if you’re only one we’ve got a budget you like building stuff I get the regular any cubic Castle but if you got extra money definitely get the lay meter plus back here we got the team of Michelangelo that think’s pretty nice but we got I’ve heard that the end or two it has heated bed so I think I’d rather get that but if you’re on a budget that one’s a little cheaper telling like 109 dollars but yeah overall I think your best bets are if you want something smaller get the any cubic I drew mega if you want something bigger and you got the money to spend and you don’t care about printing abs and stuff get the CR ten because having that big community really helps it means a lot but if you want to print all different materials get the JJ Aurora or the T book tornado hey JJ Turner though I have had more success printing abs and stuff the T Bo you can do it but it can be a little finicky so this is probably my sleeper I did not when I got this printer I didn’t know what to think of it and I’ve been blown away by this touchscreen too as well as the i3 is just killer but I love how this is all color and it just looks cool so yeah I could recommend any of these except the Thor BOTS and the zone star z5 don’t get either of those but any of these these are all good printers I’ll put links to all of them but yeah these are like my four favorite is boom boom boom boom and boom so thank you guys for watching I’ll see you later

  1. CREATABLE D3 3D Printer w/Heated Build Plate
Summary
Performance and Use 
Magnetically-Linked Joints: the D3’s magnetically-linked joints make maintenance, storage, and transportation easy
Nozzle-Swapping: the D3’s easy nozzle-swapping feature gives even first-time users the ability to perform routine nozzle maintenance or to replace the nozzle for different materials
Easy Belt-Tension Adjustment: our proprietary lift-block design allows for timing belt tensions to be conveniently adjustable through the lift-block itself, allowing for high quality prints, always
Thermally-Isolated Printhead: nozzle blockage and problems caused by overhang and bridging have been minimized, while print quality has been maximized
Designed to merge into any environment without disrupting your aesthetics and workflow
Pros
light weight (10 kg),
expansive build volume (250φ mm x 200 mm),
efficient cooling system (for overall better quality prints),
preconfigured slicer software so you can get started printing fast (Cura – CREATABLE Edition),
simple user interface consisting of one control wheel for all printer actions,
OLED strips that glow different colors depending on the current state of the printer (Blue – Idle, Green – Currently Printing, Red – Heating), and
an extensive list of compatible printing materials (including ABS, PLA, Glow, Conductive, Color Change, Metallic, Woody, Magnetic, and Silk-like Filaments)
Verdict
Printed several of my own designs and designs I found online with this printer and I must say that I am quite pleased. It worked pretty well out of the box and required some leveling adjustments about a month later (what else is new). The magnetic joints are a nice touch, making the printhead much easier to maintain when the nozzle gets blocked. I Have had the unit for months now. The prints are great, the look much better than what I have seen examples of other units.

Pros
Born from the drive for absolute quality, the Pro2 Plus refines 3D printing for production grade environments. Upgrading and evolving traditional manufacturing.
Verdict
I have paid twice as much money for dedicated vase mode printers to print artificial limb sockets and protective covers that I spent for my Pro 2 plus. I liked it well enough that I bought the smaller version Pro 2 also. I had to make my own 2 mm nozzles, but I’m able to print in vase mode using PETG by programming 309°C in my slicing software. The plastic is moving so fast through the nozzle that this averages 245°C which is perfect. Most printers won’t allow you to print this hot so I’m grateful for this feature. I was afraid that the smaller stepper motors might be an issue but they are truly beasts and they handle these tasks with ease. I love the fact that I can print 2.5 mm wide and .45 mm high which gives me extreme speed for this type of printing. I also love the fact that with 2 nozzles I can go from vase mode to find detailed printing. The touchscreen operation is great. The printer is so quiet you can barely hear it printing. Print interruption recovery is wonderful and I’ve never had that feature on a 3-D printer. Network and Web Cam server capabilities are also features that I will never do without again. The removable bedplate is great because I need to print on the aluminum surface on the back for beads as widest 2.5 mm. I use a spray contact cement on this side for bonding. These heavy beads tend to stick too hard to the printing surface on the opposite side which is the default bed. And while I’m on the subject of this default surface, it is fantastic. I use no glue whatsoever when printing for fine resolution on the side. This printer is truly a work of art. I haven’t experienced any of the problems that I’ve seen other reviews on. Good job Raised 3D!

Summary
Performance and Use 
Pros
Verdict
Whats up all, so today I was really excited because I’m gonna go through and take ten of my 3d printers compare them all tell you which ones I liked which was I don’t like what I like about them what the differences are what might suit your needs and yeah we’re just gonna go through all them so I currently have ten FDM printers and one DLP resin printer so I’m gonna go through all the FDM printers today and there’s a huge 3-d printer sale going on in gearbest so if you want to check out any of these there’ll be a link in the description where you can check out each one I’ll also put just a link to their overall sale page and yeah basically all the 3d printers are on sale right now so if you’re you know trying to figure out which one to buy this might be a good video for you so let’s go inside cuz I didn’t have enough room out here and I got all the 3d printers on the table and let’s go check it out okay guys so check it out I got nine different printers here let me get a higher angle so you can maybe see this better um let’s start off let me just go through and tell you what I got here on the table let’s start here this is a CR 10 s I got an a net a for Delta an FL Sun Delta in the back there I got a TiVo Michaelangelo jg r or a 5 any cubic I three mega TiVo tornado Thor bot buddy couple dual extrusion printer and the any cubic linear plus Delta okay so we’ll start it back here at the CR 10 and we’ll just work our way to the left here now this is the CR 10s I previously had the regular CR 10 and I gave that to my dad for Christmas I’ve also had several clones of the CR 10 like you know like the team or trader over there but I’ve had the trunk see what is it the x3 I think it’s called I also had the a net e 10 and the a net e 12 both of them I don’t currently have but they’re all very good machines but the CR 10 out of all the this and the TiVo definitely do it the best that’s why I kept this one the regular CR 10 is great especially if you’re trying to save a little money you do get extra features on this one so the extra features you get with the S model is you get a filament run-out sensor you get a power resume so like if I accidentally unplug it or if after that you know if the power goes out or something I can just restart it also too we get dual z-axis work threaded rods and motors so it’s a little more stable but it basically the print quality is basically the same you get very very very good print quality on the CR 10 and how I’m gonna say how good everything prints is I’m gonna compare it to the C okay I feel like the CR 10 right now is kind of like the benchmark so this is something I printed on the CRC our 10 its Yoda benches and pretty cool he’s like Yoda group Benji yeah really really bizarre well you know I said printed printing this really good I didn’t do any clean up after like it’s still a little you know burrs on it and stuff cuz I haven’t ripped off the brim either this literally got done printing 10 minutes ago before I started reporting all the printers on the table okay so the things that logo out the CR 10 first off it can print huge it’s got you know a huge build volume it prints great quality obviously things I don’t like though is you can’t really print abs unless you mod it there the bed does not like to get hot enough and the extruder can but the bed just does not really get over like 70 degrees it’s quite hard to get it over 70 degrees but and I also don’t like how it takes up so much room on the table but that’s good is it you know it’s a big printer so I guess it’s kind of a trade-off but it is very good it’s very stable you don’t really have to do any tweaks once you get it up and running good you just keep it the same like I haven’t had to have retighten the belts I haven’t you basically just level the bed if you move the printer if you don’t move it it doesn’t really go out of whack okay so this one though is like 450 ish with the sale price so it is a little pricier but you’re getting probably the biggest community to behind the printer okay so let’s move onto the next one okay so next we got the a net a for Delta okay now this one comes almost all the way assembled I think it took me a little over an hour and I’ve done reviews on all these if you want to look further into them but this printer I really like it actually it printed really good right out of the box here’s something I printed on it I mean not perfect but not bad and yeah I mean I like how the spool holder too is just like right on top that’s already good to go um I was I’m normally not the biggest fan of a net but I like this one I like this more than the a nut e 12 and the a nut e 10 both of which I’ve had in the past but I don’t have currently um I do not like how it’s just these push buttons oh I prefer the the old knob and stuff like most the printers have but other than that it’s actually surprisingly good quality it’s got belt tensioners already on it you don’t have to print off any parts basically it basically done no modifications to it and it’s printing pretty decent okay next we got another Delta in the back here this one is cheaper it’s definitely way harder to make like this one took me maybe 10 to 12 hours to put together but there is some cool features on this like it has bring this up a bit bear with me here I need to stuff around okay it has an auto level so like you can hear that click so it probes the bed and you know the auto levels you just type in g29 to the start code and based on that is really nice because it’s a very cheap printer that you don’t have I think it’s like a hundred and seventy bucks normally or with sale or whatever that’s very cheap printer there’s also some pretty high quality parks like all these plastic parts are all injection molded there’s not really any printed parts on it I I added a heated bed so it did not come with a heated bed they do also sell a heated bed version but stock one does not that one is a kind of a pain to put together but other than that that’s a pretty good printer it’s got pretty good quality on a bed level so it was a plus the wire management is a little crazy like the wires are just like hanging everywhere which I don’t like but other than that you can’t really not get the prints really good next we got this one here this is the jg Aurora a5 now this is one of my new favorite printers I’ve only had this not that long but man I think I like this maybe more doesn’t see our time honestly it prints just as good the quality except this one I can print ABS I can print nylon and I for any high temp material it prints great it got basically this is basically like the same thing as the any cubic ultrabass like you see here on the i3 mega mom so it you know you don’t have to put any adhesive on there or anything um I do think this printer is awesome because unlike the CR 10 how I got the control box to the side and everything everything’s right in here it’s just one solid printer like you could just you could like literally pick it up while it’s printing and it wouldn’t really affect the print now let me show you one of the coolest things about this only turned on okay so you’ll notice a little loud just that one fan but you’ll notice it’s full colored touchscreen I think like literally everything like all printers should have this um I think you know just your standard Marlin you know turn knob just the blue screen it’s really getting old I think it’s 21st century everything should use this this also just like the CR 10 it’s got you can auto resume for after power loss it’s got a filament run-out sensor over here and then I love how like the filaments tucked away like from the front you can’t even see it I’ll also to like I like how it’s all like you know from the back you can’t really you can see it but you can I got a big mess of ABS that got stuck on a film print and I didn’t fix it so ignore that but I like how like you can’t really see the nozzle and everything um this printer though this is probably the best deal in 3d printer right now cuz I think now it’s on sale for like 319 or something and it’s based you’re basically giving a CR 10 that can print ABS the build volume in the z-axis isn’t as high it’s 100 millimeters shorter so you won’t be able print as high stuff but it’s just as big on the X and the y so it’s like 305 by 305 by 300 I think so that’s pretty big okay now one printer that is very similar to this one sorry this is very dirty it was a my garage and it got really dirty I have been using this on a lot those is one of my most used printer this is my any cubic I three mega now this printer it’s it’s honestly it’s like a smaller one of these I think this one came out first I’m not quite sure but basically both these printers you can put them together in five minutes so that is just hands-down freaking awesome but besides that the any cubic I three mega also has the touchscreen the colors aren’t as vivid as the touchscreen on there and also has the filament run-out sensor power on/off and everything I can also print ABS and all those different materials also has this awesome ultra base yeah I think this printer if you don’t need a big printer it’s like what is still pretty big it’s bigger than like your standard like a net eight or a six or anything but if you don’t need like a giant printer this might be the printer to get and I’ve personally dealt with any cubic two different times and both times they were like the best customer service ever so my ultra base my first time I got it came messed up they sent me a brand new or no-questions-asked had it shipped out that day so that is pretty awesome I mean now let’s go here to the back and we got the TiVo michelangelo’s a small little little printer it’s also a very cheap printer one thing about it is it comes basically a 100 percent of samples like you don’t have to do anything you just plug it in it prints actually quite well the only downside is there’s no heated bed I heard they are remodeling it with a heated bed I don’t know if that’s gonna up the price because this printer is just over a hundred dollars if you want something small that doesn’t take up a lot of space and just want it really easy to set up foam your newb this might be a printer for you it doesn’t have a huge build volume but it’s big enough to print you know you’re just you’re right unless you’re not printing something like a face you know you’re gonna be okay I mean it’s still pretty decent-sized it’s just nothing crazy okay next we got maybe the best 3d printer they came out last year I don’t know we got the TiVo tornado now I think the CR 10 was just killing everybody and then a bunch of clones came out of the shower time like that Ian at E 12 a 90/10 the Tron see whatever X 3 or whatever X 5 or whatever it’s called but then this printer came out and they’re like you know they got all the same design same size but they did some changes and I really really really like what they did here they added a AC heating module for the bed so the bed can literally heat up in minutes – like ABS temperatures this printer isn’t the best of printing abs if you enclose it it is but I’ve had some problems I can print ABS on it but sometimes the parts will warp especially if it’s a big print if it’s a small print it’s usually okay but yeah just cuz it’s so big also – if you have it in a hot room that’ll help but this printer is just awesome I love this TiVo Titan extruder this is by far my favorite extruder and they sent a dexter one I haven’t had to use it but it’s all very similar to the CR ten one thing I don’t like about is it does not come with a spool holder so it comes with like an STL file or AG code so you can just print one but they they should have already had that printed for you but yeah I don’t know it just prints I can burn really fast on this notes – like the CR 10 I try not to get it above 60 millimeters a second this one I can easily print at like 70 sometimes 80 if it’s not that complex you know of a design but our sorry of a model but yeah it prints great great quality I’d say just as good quality as the CR 10 I did have some salmon skin effects I think on all the new models so if you’re by now you you won’t have that I think they’d use a different board now but I had to add some TL smoothers they were very cheap but I had to add them to the box so that’s why my control box is open here so maybe I can just show it to you I never put the screws back on but um yeah that’s what come on sorry trying to do this with one hand so those are the TL smothers so they’re very easy they just plug right in so I added those and it eliminated the salmon skin and yeah it just prints beautifully okay so we got two more two printers on the table here this one this one I really like this is the any cubic linear plus I just recently did a review on this it’s got this awesome auto bed level probe so you put this on it’s just a magnet this is it sticks right on whoops right there and then it probes you know but I’m gonna be like beep beep beep it does like 39 spots and then you know then you hit store on the member here it stores it in and then when you go to print it knows where everything is it works perfect and I love this build platform it does have a heated bed and this comes almost all the way assembled I also really like how this ball holder is just on the metal frame right there the power supply you know it’s nice and safe has the on/off switch yeah I just really really really like this one okay so next time we’re gonna go let’s move this one a little okay we got the robot Bonnie couple okay now let me tell you when I first got this printer I thought it was the bee’s knees I was like this thing is so friggin awesome you can print dot two different colors you can mix colors after having it for a month the thing doesn’t work anymore it still turns on and everything but it jams every time I try to print two colors I even changed this whole carriage this guy remodeled this saying he had the same problem but my problems didn’t really change I’m definitely gonna have to do some work on that I was gonna give that one away to my friend but I don’t even I gotta fix it before him and give it to him cuz I feel bad giving it to him so this printer it’s all metal construction everything it would compute to colors it was really cool but after a month it just crapped out on me and I cannot figure it out it’s in the nozzle it uses this a crazy giant giant nozzle you can see there’s a huge mess of stuff on there let me zoom in oh yeah it’s huge it’s like five hundred times the size of a regular nozzle so I need to know how you replace that I don’t know what the inside of the hot end is like they both feed in there in this fan on it is so loud I got if I was gonna keep that I would replace those fans yeah it printed great for like a month and then it just started clogging all the time I don’t know if he just they got buildup in there I was trying to you know I’ve taken good care of it I don’t really know but okay so these are all the printers I have in there I have one more printer that doesn’t fit it’s not that big I just didn’t have any more room on the table so let me go grab that and I’ll show you that and then we can wrap this up okay guys this is the zone star z5 and you have never seen this on my channel that is because I refused to review this one it was so bad it had so many problems right out the box that I didn’t review it and I just salvaged different parts that’s why not everything is here but it is basically absolutely horrendous I have never checked out any other zone star products but I do not want to this was a nightmare to put together it was supposed to be a fast assembly but that’s not even it there was two broken end stops off the box so I had replacement stuff so I replaced them then after replacing I might notice the why and stop the bed can go so far back that it will be printing in midair like you won’t even you know I mean like it’ll be way off here so I had to mod it to pull it forward and it still didn’t work okay so then after I finally got everything set up I replaced it with a bunch of my own parts I turned it on and then it blew a thermistor and I’m like what the heck like right away so I replaced that then it blew another thermistor and then I just said you know what I’m done with this thing this thing is a piece of garbage I replaced four parts had to mod one and it in like okay and then this spooled or you can’t even fit a normal spool of film and I look how then this is like it you cannot put a spool of filament on there so I don’t even know what the point of having that is but yeah it was just terrible we had Auto level sensor so I thought that was cool but I never even got to use it I literally did not I I played with this thing for two days never even got one print off of it so just so you guys know if I get anything I recommend it’s because I recommend it if I don’t like something I’d rather just not even make the review then make a video trashing it so just so you know don’t you know if I say something’s good I’m not lying you guys I will not redo a review on something I do not like so this has been all my printers so let’s go inside I’ll give you a little conclusion of what I think and yeah okay guys so in conclusion which ones these are my favorite which ones I like the best okay so as far as partition style printers go my favourite smaller one is actually the any cubic ie three mega this is probably my most used on the joint it’s filled with just dirty as hell I use it all the time and you can print basically every type of material if anything goes wrong any cubics got great customer service but yeah sometimes it’s just not big enough for the job so sometimes I need something like my CHF back there or my JJ or or a five so the ginger I’ve only had this for like a month the CR ten I’ve had much longer Sanatana can honestly say is super reliable they have the best community ever then more people have the CR ken basically than any other printer so if one thing that really matters to you is being able to get support ask people for help if you’re totally new the CR ten is great the regulars here ten is pretty cheap it’s it’s well not cheap but it’s not as expensive as this one this one’s like 450 he’s still 300 to 350 or so for the regular one but honestly if you’re not gonna be printing huge all the time and you only have that much s but I would get the JJ Aurora because the JJ Aurora is on sale right now for only 319 and you can go almost as big as that and print every material and I honestly like this build platform better doesn’t have as big of a community behind it but I haven’t had to do anything like I literally have not done a single modification since I got this um CR ten though I see you cannot go wrong you lizard these are two of my favorite printers ever but the teamwork tornado also like all three of these are so close the team Oh tornado though I can turn it on and it’s all ready to go boom just like that the Tibor tornado if you get the newer one which if you ordered now yeah if you’re good don’t get one used um I would recommend getting one of the new ones I’ve gearbest if you’re gonna get one because you just affect the bedsheets up so fast and everything is so awesome Tibo also has great customer service they’re one of the only printers that comes with an actual instruction booklet this one’s also quite cheap right now it’s just a little over three hundred they take 325 or 350 of the most but it’s really cheap like when this first came out it was it was more than that as far as Delta printers go I’m gonna say anything from any cubic any cubic kills it if you don’t know how to money for the castle linear plus over there just get the regular castle I did a review on that too it in the past I gave that one to my brother but that printer is awesome and both any cubic they like no matter what you get they have awesome customer service the regular Castle much cheaper this one can do bigger stuff it can do more stuff it’s got a better power supply it can do different types of materials like abs and stuff where your regular one doesn’t have a heated bed and you can’t so if you’re only one we’ve got a budget you like building stuff I get the regular any cubic Castle but if you got extra money definitely get the lay meter plus back here we got the team of Michelangelo that think’s pretty nice but we got I’ve heard that the end or two it has heated bed so I think I’d rather get that but if you’re on a budget that one’s a little cheaper telling like 109 dollars but yeah overall I think your best bets are if you want something smaller get the any cubic I drew mega if you want something bigger and you got the money to spend and you don’t care about printing abs and stuff get the CR ten because having that big community really helps it means a lot but if you want to print all different materials get the JJ Aurora or the T book tornado hey JJ Turner though I have had more success printing abs and stuff the T Bo you can do it but it can be a little finicky so this is probably my sleeper I did not when I got this printer I didn’t know what to think of it and I’ve been blown away by this touchscreen too as well as the i3 is just killer but I love how this is all color and it just looks cool so yeah I could recommend any of these except the Thor BOTS and the zone star z5 don’t get either of those but any of these these are all good printers I’ll put links to all of them but yeah these are like my four favorite is boom boom boom boom and boom so thank you guys for watching I’ll see you later

[CN] Victor’s Return Home Date (Eng Translation)
🍒 Warning: This post contains detailed spoilers for a date which has not been released in English servers! 🍒
Tumblr media
The date begins in a conference room, where a meeting has been going on for almost three hours
When LFG invested in an online video platform called SE, LFG held a press release stating that it was a strategic move for the international film and TV market
However, just within two years, SE found itself racking up billions of dollars in debt due to its poor project management
As such, people in the know have been secretly ridiculing Victor for making an error of judgement
Fortunately, LFG’s connections with the media prevented this information from leaking out
But it doesn’t change the fact that LFG messed up this time
Victor hasn’t slept in two days - he’s been poring through documents, project materials, and would sometimes sit in the conference room alone for several hours, forgetting to eat :
When Victor returns to the hotel, there are over a hundred unread notifications on his phone. 
He doesn’t pay attention to such information, but taps on the only pinned message amid the countless lists of prompts.
Unsurprisingly, it’s filled with insignificant idle talk, coupled with several different emoticons.
Tumblr media
Victor loosens his tie slightly, reading through the messages from top to bottom. 
“I made an improved version of omurice. Want to try it?”
“What is Goldman talking about in his Moments - something about being angry and tired. Is the meeting not going smoothly?”
“Remember to eat...”
“And remember to sleep!”
Victor’s finger pauses at this line, and there’s a gentle emotion flowing in his eyes.
“The internet celebrity lawyer you mentioned the other time agreed to my invitation for an interview, so I’ll be rushing out the proposal this Saturday. Want to be a supervisor?”
Victor opens the dialog box. Once he sends an “ok”, the other party immediately responds with an emoticon of a winking cat. 
Thinking of the time right now, he arches his brows slightly. 
-
Nestled in my quilt, I’m just about to embark on a long speech regarding the weekend’s schedule, but the phone in my hand suddenly vibrates, surprising me. 
Victor: Did you not sleep, or did you wake up?
MC: Haha...
Victor: What are you laughing at? 
MC: It feels like that is something I often ask you. Why is it now your turn to ask me?
Victor: It’s only 5am now. 
MC: I didn’t get a reply from you, so I couldn’t sleep...
I turn over, changing to a more comfortable position against the corner of the quilt. I press the phone tightly to my ear. 
MC: What project are you busy with this time? Is it going smoothly? 
Victor: Smoothly. It’s still early, you can sleep for a while longer.
MC: ...I can’t really sleep now. Are you still coming back on Thursday as you said last time? 
Victor: Before Saturday. 
MC: It’s only Tuesday today... and the sun hasn’t come out yet. 
I hear Victor laugh, his low tone mixed with some tiredness.
Victor: You find it too late? 
MC: I wouldn’t dare to. If it weren’t something important, you wouldn’t delay returning. However... even if it’s because of work, you did go back on your word, so you have to promise me one thing. 
A deep and slow sigh enters my ear, revealing a faint sense of fatigue.
Victor: You can say it. 
MC: You have to eat, and you have to sleep.
The other end of the phone call grows silent for a few seconds. 
Victor: Mm, I promise you.
The misty morning light is on the curtains. In the midst of my quiet grogginess, I close my eyes, wanting to feel the frequency of his breaths. 
MC: ...it has been raining continuously in Paris these two days. 
Victor: It’s like that during this season. 
MC: Is... is it very cold...
Victor: No, it isn’t. 
My consciousness grows increasingly darker, but I can still clearly capture his voice in my bizarre dream world. 
Victor: [in the gentlest of gentle voices] Sleep if you’re tired. I’m hanging up. 
MC: N-not tired... don’t hang up...
Victor: You can’t even speak clearly, and you’re still unwilling to sleep?
MC: ...
I just need five more seconds to be clear-headed--
I let out a sound of agreement, unsure if I managed to say this aloud.
Very soon, only Victor’s long and steady breaths at my ear remain in my world. It’s very, very close. It’s a closeness that gives one a peace of mind. 
Victor: Are you asleep?
Tumblr media
MC: ...
Victor: Sleep then.
Victor: ...
Victor: Sleep peacefully. 
-
On Saturday afternoon, I lift my head towards the wall clock for the nth time. When the needle points to the number ‘3′, I can no longer help myself, and give Victor a call. 
After the dial tone, the notification that the other party is unable to answer the call sounds. Before I can react, the doorbell rings. 
Tumblr media
Victor is standing at the door and just about to put his phone back into his pocket. In a daze, I look towards at his empty hands. 
MC: Your luggage...
Victor: Goldman took them back. I still have to return to LFG tonight. 
As he speaks, he enters and changes his shoes in the hallway. After that, he walks straight into my bedroom.
Victor: What have you been doing these two days? 
He walks to the coffee table, picking up the messy outline I was working on for an interview. He takes a glance and then lifts the corners of his lips. 
Victor: You said you were working seriously for several days, but you just did a few outlines? 
MC: Don’t underestimate me! I’ve looked through quite a number of materials. Look!
I point at the stack of trending societal topics and legal-related books on the floor. 
MC: Preparatory work speeds up the actual process. Also, didn’t I recognise my inadequacies and ask you to be a supervisor? 
I hurriedly drag a chair to the coffee table and place a headrest on the back of it. 
MC: Please sit. I guarantee that from this second onwards, I’ll concentrate on the proposal. Before the sun sets, I’ll definitely have the first edition out. 
Victor can’t help but laugh. He hangs his coat on the clothes rack in the corner, then pulls the chair over to himself. After sitting down, he seems to recall something and lets out a faint sigh. 
Tumblr media
Victor: Lend me your laptop for a while.
I hand him my notebook computer, and a thought flashes across my mind -- how could he not have brought a laptop out?
MC: Victor, when did you get infected by my scatterbrained habits? 
Victor: Only this time. I forgot to take it with me after leaving it in the backseat.
Victor avoids my teasing gaze. With his expression unchanged, he starts approving documents on the LFG intranet. 
Victor: The sun is setting in two hours. 
MC: Who knows - maybe the sun wouldn’t feel like going home today. 
I return to my seat, resting my chin on my palm while looking towards Victor. 
The light golden sunlight streams in from the window, slowly enveloping Victor. The quiet, warm rays of light are coupled with a calming woody scent, and are very pleasant. 
Victor doesn’t speak. His fingers tap against the desk from time to time. In this quiet room, the sound of our breathing is amplified.
After an inordinate amount of time, he finally lifts his eyes and meets mine.
Tumblr media
Victor: Staring at me can help you finish your proposal?
MC: I’m not staring at you. I’m silently conceptualising ideas.
After my words are out, a short “ding” sounds.
MC: Wait for a moment~ 
In a flash, I rush to the kitchen and retrieve the aromatic cookies from the oven. After carefully placing them on a cooling rack, I bring it back to the room along with two cups of warm drinks. 
MC: Afternoon tea time!
Victor casts a glance at the cups and arches his brows slightly. Steam floats from the hot cup of milk, and strands of warmth merge with the sweetness in the house.
MC: Your dark circles are so deep, so don’t drink coffee, all right?  
Victor: I’m fine. 
I thought Victor meant that he wouldn’t drink this, but he holds up the cup after speaking. 
Once I sit down, I push the plate filled with cookies towards him. 
MC: Look at my new mold - isn’t it cute?
I point at the cookies, which are shaped like cats with different expressions on them. 
MC: This one is yawning, this one is full of grievances, this one has already fallen asleep, but I like this one the most. It keeps having an angry face. I called it “Qi Gu Gu”.
[Note: Names don’t translate well into English, so I left it as it is. The original name is 气鼓鼓, which means “seething”]
Victor’s eyes sweep towards my fingers. 
Tumblr media
Victor: Looks like you. 
Tumblr media
MC: Is that so?
I puff my cheeks, mimicking the cat on the cookie and squinting my eyes to look at Victor. 
As predicted, Victor ignores me. There is a measure of speechlessness in his eyes.
I laugh and bring “Qi Gu Gu” to his lips. 
MC: Give it a try? 
Victor takes a bite straight from my hand, then returns his gaze to the laptop. 
MC: Aren’t you going to evaluate it? 
He purses his lips slightly, and I can’t tell if he’s smiling or not. He leans forward a little, then finishes the remaining half of “Qi Gu Gu” in my hand. 
Tumblr media
His warm lips brush against my fingertips, leaving behind a soft, lingering warmth. A fluffy, light, and sweet sense of happiness stirs up slowly in my heart. 
Contented, I sweep the crumbs off my hands and take up my pen again. 
Soon after, MC’s mind starts wandering to how fine the weather is
And how fine her man is 👀
He doesn’t show much emotion while working, and his expression looks as calm as always. But the deep look of concentration between his eyebrows is a little different from usual.
As for what exactly is different...
It’s probably how one just can’t look away.
Victor: It’s only been a few minutes. How many times have you lost focus? 
I hurriedly retract my gaze, pretending to be scribbling on the paper like an “obedient” student who got caught doing something improper by a teacher.
But my ideas have not been completely formulated, and I can’t think of anything to write. The only thing I can do is draw a small heart at the top right-hand corner of the paper. 
Sensing Victor’s lingering gaze on me, I continue scribbling until it becomes a solid heart, then attach a tilde at the end.
After pausing for a moment, I let out a soft sigh and lift my head slightly. 
Tumblr media
Victor: Why are you sighing.
Tumblr media
MC: ...I can’t help it.
Victor: Can’t help what? 
MC: Can’t help looking at you. 
I cross my arms together, changing to a more comfortable position and plopping onto the table. I tilt my head towards Victor. 
He lets out a barely audible laugh. Just as he’s about to speak, a familiar ringtone sounds from his pocket. 
Watching Victor pick up the call, my messy thoughts instantly vanish, and I feel slightly downcast.
Victor: The time now is...
While speaking, Victor looks at the bottom right corner of the laptop. After a slight pause, he looks at the phone. 
Victor: 4.30pm. Have them give me a reply by 8pm. 
His words are concise. After he hangs up, I ask him a little hesitantly. 
MC: Do you... have to go back to LFG now? 
Tumblr media
Victor: I'm not leaving. 
While saying this, he sets his phone on silent mode and places it at the corner of the table. Meeting my hesitant gaze, there’s a sense of resignation in his calm eyes.
Victor: Your laptop is set to Paris’ timezone. 
I fail to understand the implication behind his words, so I just nod subconsciously. 
MC: Mm, it’s easier to tell the time like that. 
Victor doesn’t speak. He sweeps another glance at the laptop. At this moment, the system sends a report of the weather forecast in Paris over the next five days - there will be continuous rain every day.
He smiles faintly, then closes the laptop slowly.
Tumblr media
Victor: ...you’re really becoming more and more dumb.
MC: ...yes yes yes, taking care of a dummy like me is really a bother for Mr CEO. 
I deliberately pout, but can’t help but smile along with Victor. I stand up and retrieve our two empty cups.
MC: I'll go wash the cups. Is there anything you want to eat?
Victor: No need. Are you treating me as you? 
I let out an indignant “hmph”, then turn around and head to the kitchen. 
I originally thought it would only take a few minutes to wash the two cups. But by the time I cleaned and tidied up the tools I used for baking earlier, half an hour has passed. 
When I return to the room, Victor is lying on the bed, my incomplete outline in his hand.
Tumblr media
I soften my footsteps and walk over, leaning close to his ear and whispering:
MC: Victor, are you asleep? 
Victor doesn’t respond, but has a shallow intake of breath, his eyelashes quivering gently under the twilight. 
MC: Are you really sleeping or just pretending to sleep? 
Very lightly, I climb onto the bed, inching towards him.
MC: Victor? 
I call his name again softly, but he still does not respond. But the corners of his lips curl up slowly, revealing a smile.  
MC: You aren’t asleep, are you.
Tumblr media
I lean one hand on the bed, and use my other hand to lift up a few strands of his hair. 
Looking at his smooth and sharp jawline, my fingertips unconsciously rub the tips of his hair. 
Tumblr media
MC: ...have you been very tired recently?
Victor: No.
His words carry with them a certain sleepiness - perhaps he hasn’t had rest in a few days, so he gets drowsy once he relaxes just a little. 
MC: Didn’t you already look at my interview outline? Why are you looking at it again? 
Tumblr media
Victor: To see what exactly you were scribbling. 
I think about that heart with its little tail, and am left speechless, as though I got caught having a bad idea. 
Victor: You specially got me here to supervise you, but you only wrote these few sentences the whole afternoon? 
MC: Yeah. Next time, I won’t ask you to be a supervisor! When you’re in front of me, my work efficiency takes a nose-dive. 
I reach out to take my notebook from his hand, then cover him with a blanket. Victor turns his head, his half-closed eyes meeting mine. 
It’s very rare for me to see such a burnt-out look in his eyes. Right now, I can only feel the emotions in my heart towards this person becoming a hundred times more tender. 
MC: Sleep for a while before going to LFG? I’ll wake you up at 7.30pm.
With the rigour of Victor’s schedule, several important meetings were cancelled at short notice so he could fly to Paris. After that, his return was delayed twice.
We already agreed that he’d return before Saturday, but it suddenly changed to Saturday itself...
This wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t an extremely troublesome matter. 
...and he still stubbornly said that he wasn’t tired.
I place my forefingers on his temples, making slow circles. After a while, a soft laugh drifts from his lips. 
Tumblr media
Victor: [releases a sigh which sounds like a moan lol]...
Victor takes my right hand and encloses it in his palm, wordlessly pulling me closer to him. 
With this distance, every one of his breaths mingle with mine. I can’t help but bend down, pressing the corner of my lips to his fringe.
In the quiet darkness, I hear the frequency of our heartbeats and breathing mingling and becoming more and more synchronised.
Tumblr media
Victor: ...there’s no need to worry about me. I haven’t reached the point where a dummy has to worry about me.
MC: Mm, I got it. 
I respond softly, but can’t hide the touch of peace in my smile. 
MC: ...I just can’t help it.
Can’t help but worry if you’re hungry or not, whether you're cold or not, whether you’re tired or not. 
Can’t help but want to see you, whether you’re in front of me or not.
Can’t help but reveal the smile in my brows and lips just because you surface in my mind. 
I look out the window - the clouds spread across the dim twilight and the stars are looming. The golden sunset and the quietness of the night meet at the end of the sky. 
The sun is about to set.
Tumblr media
MC: Victor, I didn’t finish the interview outline before the sun set. Are you going to punish me? 
Victor: ...
The only response I get is the sound of his steady and peaceful breathing. 
I lower my head and look at his sleeping face. This familiar side profile has gotten slightly thinner over the span of just a few days. I reach out, stroking his cheek in mid-air.
Afraid to disturb him, I silently watch him.
MC: Sleep then.
MC: ...
MC: Sleep peacefully.

  1. CREATABLE D3 3D Printer w/Heated Build Plate
Summary
Performance and Use 
Magnetically-Linked Joints: the D3’s magnetically-linked joints make maintenance, storage, and transportation easy
Nozzle-Swapping: the D3’s easy nozzle-swapping feature gives even first-time users the ability to perform routine nozzle maintenance or to replace the nozzle for different materials
Easy Belt-Tension Adjustment: our proprietary lift-block design allows for timing belt tensions to be conveniently adjustable through the lift-block itself, allowing for high quality prints, always
Thermally-Isolated Printhead: nozzle blockage and problems caused by overhang and bridging have been minimized, while print quality has been maximized
Designed to merge into any environment without disrupting your aesthetics and workflow
Pros
light weight (10 kg),
expansive build volume (250φ mm x 200 mm),
efficient cooling system (for overall better quality prints),
preconfigured slicer software so you can get started printing fast (Cura – CREATABLE Edition),
simple user interface consisting of one control wheel for all printer actions,
OLED strips that glow different colors depending on the current state of the printer (Blue – Idle, Green – Currently Printing, Red – Heating), and
an extensive list of compatible printing materials (including ABS, PLA, Glow, Conductive, Color Change, Metallic, Woody, Magnetic, and Silk-like Filaments)
Verdict
Printed several of my own designs and designs I found online with this printer and I must say that I am quite pleased. It worked pretty well out of the box and required some leveling adjustments about a month later (what else is new). The magnetic joints are a nice touch, making the printhead much easier to maintain when the nozzle gets blocked. I Have had the unit for months now. The prints are great, the look much better than what I have seen examples of other units.

  3. Raise3D 101017001 Pro2 Plus 3D Printer
Summary
Performance and Use 
Dual extruder: electronic driven lifting; 4× increased torque performance; diverse filament compatibility (300℃)
Massive build volume (12 x 12 x 23. 8 in); minimum 0. 01Mm layer height
Filament sensor/ camera/ hepa filter
7″ Touch Screen; Resume Print after Power Outage; Wireless Compatibility
32 bit motion control board
US-based tech support team (California); Please contact 888-963-9028 for any support related questions.
Pros
Born from the drive for absolute quality, the Pro2 Plus refines 3D printing for production grade environments. Upgrading and evolving traditional manufacturing.
Verdict
I have paid twice as much money for dedicated vase mode printers to print artificial limb sockets and protective covers that I spent for my Pro 2 plus. I liked it well enough that I bought the smaller version Pro 2 also. I had to make my own 2 mm nozzles, but I’m able to print in vase mode using PETG by programming 309°C in my slicing software. The plastic is moving so fast through the nozzle that this averages 245°C which is perfect. Most printers won’t allow you to print this hot so I’m grateful for this feature. I was afraid that the smaller stepper motors might be an issue but they are truly beasts and they handle these tasks with ease. I love the fact that I can print 2.5 mm wide and .45 mm high which gives me extreme speed for this type of printing. I also love the fact that with 2 nozzles I can go from vase mode to find detailed printing. The touchscreen operation is great. The printer is so quiet you can barely hear it printing. Print interruption recovery is wonderful and I’ve never had that feature on a 3-D printer. Network and Web Cam server capabilities are also features that I will never do without again. The removable bedplate is great because I need to print on the aluminum surface on the back for beads as widest 2.5 mm. I use a spray contact cement on this side for bonding. These heavy beads tend to stick too hard to the printing surface on the opposite side which is the default bed. And while I’m on the subject of this default surface, it is fantastic. I use no glue whatsoever when printing for fine resolution on the side. This printer is truly a work of art. I haven’t experienced any of the problems that I’ve seen other reviews on. Good job Raised 3D!

back here at the CR 10 and we’ll just work our way to the left here now this is the CR 10s I previously had the regular CR 10 and I gave that to my dad for Christmas I’ve also had several clones of the CR 10 like you know like the team or trader over there but I’ve had the trunk see what is it the x3 I think it’s called I also had the a net e 10 and the a net e 12 both of them I don’t currently have but they’re all very good machines but the CR 10 out of all the this and the TiVo definitely do it the best that’s why I kept this one the regular CR 10 is great especially if you’re trying to save a little money you do get extra features on this one so the extra features you get with the S model is you get a filament run-out sensor you get a power resume so like if I accidentally unplug it or if after that you know if the power goes out or something I can just restart it also too we get dual z-axis work threaded rods and motors so it’s a little more stable but it basically the print quality is basically the same you get very very very good print quality on the CR 10 and how I’m gonna say how good everything prints is I’m gonna compare it to the C okay I feel like the CR 10 right now is kind of like the benchmark so this is something I printed on the CRC our 10 its Yoda benches and pretty cool he’s like Yoda group Benji yeah really really bizarre well you know I said printed printing this really good I didn’t do any clean up after like it’s still a little you know burrs on it and stuff cuz I haven’t ripped off the brim either this literally got done printing 10 minutes ago before I started reporting all the printers on the table okay so the things that logo out the CR 10 first off it can print huge it’s got you know a huge build volume it prints great quality obviously things I don’t like though is you can’t really print abs unless you mod it there the bed does not like to get hot enough and the extruder can but the bed just does not really get over like 70 degrees it’s quite hard to get it over 70 degrees but and I also don’t like how it takes up so much room on the table but that’s good is it you know it’s a big printer so I guess it’s kind of a trade-off but it is very good it’s very stable you don’t really have to do any tweaks once you get it up and running good you just keep it the same like I haven’t had to have retighten the belts I haven’t you basically just level the bed if you move the printer if you don’t move it it doesn’t really go out of whack okay so this one though is like 450 ish with the sale price so it is a little pricier but you’re getting probably the biggest community to behind the printer okay so let’s move onto the next one okay so next we got the a net a for Delta okay now this one comes almost all the way assembled I think it took me a little over an hour and I’ve done reviews on all these if you want to look further into them but this printer I really like it actually it printed really good right out of the box here’s something I printed on it I mean not perfect but not bad and yeah I mean I like how the spool holder too is just like right on top that’s already good to go um I was I’m normally not the biggest fan of a net but I like this one I like this more than the a nut e 12 and the a nut e 10 both of which I’ve had in the past but I don’t have currently um I do not like how it’s just these push buttons oh I prefer the the old knob and stuff like most the printers have but other than that it’s actually surprisingly good quality it’s got belt tensioners already on it you don’t have to print off any parts basically it basically done no modifications to it and it’s printing pretty decent okay next we got another Delta in the back here this one is cheaper it’s definitely way harder to make like this one took me maybe 10 to 12 hours to put together but there is some cool features on this like it has bring this up a bit bear with me here I need to stuff around okay it has an auto level so like you can hear that click so it probes the bed and you know the auto levels you just type in g29 to the start code and based on that is really nice because it’s a very cheap printer that you don’t have I think it’s like a hundred and seventy bucks normally or with sale or whatever that’s very cheap printer there’s also some pretty high quality parks like all these plastic parts are all injection molded there’s not really any printed parts on it I I added a heated bed so it did not come with a heated bed they do also sell a heated bed version but stock one does not that one is a kind of a pain to put together but other than that that’s a pretty good printer it’s got pretty good quality on a bed level so it was a plus the wire management is a little crazy like the wires are just like hanging everywhere which I don’t like but other than that you can’t really not get the prints really good next we got this one here this is the jg Aurora a5 now this is one of my new favorite printers I’ve only had this not that long but man I think I like this maybe more doesn’t see our time honestly it prints just as good the quality except this one I can print ABS I can print nylon and I for any high temp material it prints great it got basically this is basically like the same thing as the any cubic ultrabass like you see here on the i3 mega mom so it you know you don’t have to put any adhesive on there or anything um I do think this printer is awesome because unlike the CR 10 how I got the control box to the side and everything everything’s right in here it’s just one solid printer like you could just you could like literally pick it up while it’s printing and it wouldn’t really affect the print now let me show you one of the coolest things about this only turned on okay so you’ll notice a little loud just that one fan but you’ll notice it’s full colored touchscreen I think like literally everything like all printers should have this um I think you know just your standard Marlin you know turn knob just the blue screen it’s really getting old I think it’s 21st century everything should use this this also just like the CR 10 it’s got you can auto resume for after power loss it’s got a filament run-out sensor over here and then I love how like the filaments tucked away like from the front you can’t even see it I’ll also to like I like how it’s all like you know from the back you can’t really you can see it but you can I got a big mess of ABS that got stuck on a film print and I didn’t fix it so ignore that but I like how like you can’t really see the nozzle and everything um this printer though this is probably the best deal in 3d printer right now cuz I think now it’s on sale for like 319 or something and it’s based you’re basically giving a CR 10 that can print ABS the build volume in the z-axis isn’t as high it’s 100 millimeters shorter so you won’t be able print as high stuff but it’s just as big on the X and the y so it’s like 305 by 305 by 300 I think so that’s pretty big okay now one printer that is very similar to this one sorry this is very dirty it was a my garage and it got really dirty I have been using this on a lot those is one of my most used printer this is my any cubic I three mega now this printer it’s it’s honestly it’s like a smaller one of these I think this one came out first I’m not quite sure but basically both these printers you can put them together in five minutes so that is just hands-down freaking awesome but besides that the any cubic I three mega also has the touchscreen the colors aren’t as vivid as the touchscreen on there and also has the filament run-out sensor power on/off and everything I can also print ABS and all those different materials also has this awesome ultra base yeah I think this printer if you don’t need a big printer it’s like what is still pretty big it’s bigger than like your standard like a net eight or a six or anything but if you don’t need like a giant printer this might be the printer to get and I’ve personally dealt with any cubic two different times and both times they were like the best customer service ever so my ultra base my first time I got it came messed up they sent me a brand new or no-questions-asked had it shipped out that day so that is pretty awesome I mean now let’s go here to the back and we got the TiVo michelangelo’s a small little little printer it’s also a very cheap printer one thing about it is it comes basically a 100 percent of samples like you don’t have to do anything you just plug it in it prints actually quite well the only downside is there’s no heated bed I heard they are remodeling it with a heated bed I don’t know if that’s gonna up the price because this printer is just over a hundred dollars if you want something small that doesn’t take up a lot of space and just want it really easy to set up foam your newb this might be a printer for you it doesn’t have a huge build volume but it’s big enough to print you know you’re just you’re right unless you’re not printing something like a face you know you’re gonna be okay I mean it’s still pretty decent-sized it’s just nothing crazy okay next we got maybe the best 3d printer they came out last year I don’t know we got the TiVo tornado now I think the CR 10 was just killing everybody and then a bunch of clones came out of the shower time like that Ian at E 12 a 90/10 the Tron see whatever X 3 or whatever X 5 or whatever it’s called but then this printer came out and they’re like you know they got all the same design same size but they did some changes and I really really really like what they did here they added a AC heating module for the bed so the bed can literally heat up in minutes – like ABS temperatures this printer isn’t the best of printing abs if you enclose it it is but I’ve had some problems I can print ABS on it but sometimes the parts will warp especially if it’s a big print if it’s a small print it’s usually okay but yeah just cuz it’s so big also – if you have it in a hot room that’ll help but this printer is just awesome I love this TiVo Titan extruder this is by far my favorite extruder and they sent a dexter one I haven’t had to use it but it’s all very similar to the CR ten one thing I don’t like about is it does not come with a spool holder so it comes with like an STL file or AG code so you can just print one but they they should have already had that printed for you but yeah I don’t know it just prints I can burn really fast on this notes – like the CR 10 I try not to get it above 60 millimeters a second this one I can easily print at like 70 sometimes 80 if it’s not that complex you know of a design but our sorry of a model but yeah it prints great great quality I’d say just as good quality as the CR 10 I did have some salmon skin effects I think on all the new models so if you’re by now you you won’t have that I think they’d use a different board now but I had to add some TL smoothers they were very cheap but I had to add them to the box so that’s why my control box is open here so maybe I can just show it to you I never put the screws back on but um yeah that’s what come on sorry trying to do this with one hand so those are the TL smothers so they’re very easy they just plug right in so I added those and it eliminated the salmon skin and yeah it just prints beautifully okay so we got two more two printers on the table here this one this one I really like this is the any cubic linear plus I just recently did a review on this it’s got this awesome auto bed level probe so you put this on it’s just a magnet this is it sticks right on whoops right there and then it probes you know but I’m gonna be like beep beep beep it does like 39 spots and then you know then you hit store on the member here it stores it in and then when you go to print it knows where everything is it works perfect and I love this build platform it does have a heated bed and this comes almost all the way assembled I also really like how this ball holder is just on the metal frame right there the power supply you know it’s nice and safe has the on/off switch yeah I just really really really like this one okay so next time we’re gonna go let’s move this one a little okay we got the robot Bonnie couple okay now let me tell you when I first got this printer I thought it was the bee’s knees I was like this thing is so friggin awesome you can print dot two different colors you can mix colors after having it for a month the thing doesn’t work anymore it still turns on and everything but it jams every time I try to print two colors I even changed this whole carriage this guy remodeled this saying he had the same problem but my problems didn’t really change I’m definitely gonna have to do some work on that I was gonna give that one away to my friend but I don’t even I gotta fix it before him and give it to him cuz I feel bad giving it to him so this printer it’s all metal construction everything it would compute to colors it was really cool but after a month it just crapped out on me and I cannot figure it out it’s in the nozzle it uses this a crazy giant giant nozzle you can see there’s a huge mess of stuff on there let me zoom in oh yeah it’s huge it’s like five hundred times the size of a regular nozzle so I need to know how you replace that I don’t know what the inside of the hot end is like they both feed in there in this fan on it is so loud I got if I was gonna keep that I would replace those fans yeah it printed great for like a month and then it just started clogging all the time I don’t know if he just they got buildup in there I was trying to you know I’ve taken good care of it I don’t really know but okay so these are all the printers I have in there I have one more printer that doesn’t fit it’s not that big I just didn’t have any more room on the table so let me go grab that and I’ll show you that and then we can wrap this up okay guys this is the zone star z5 and you have never seen this on my channel that is because I refused to review this one it was so bad it had so many problems right out the box that I didn’t review it and I just salvaged different parts that’s why not everything is here but it is basically absolutely horrendous I have never checked out any other zone star products but I do not want to this was a nightmare to put together it was supposed to be a fast assembly but that’s not even it there was two broken end stops off the box so I had replacement stuff so I replaced them then after replacing I might notice the why and stop the bed can go so far back that it will be printing in midair like you won’t even you know I mean like it’ll be way off here so I had to mod it to pull it forward and it still didn’t work okay so then after I finally got everything set up I replaced it with a bunch of my own parts I turned it on and then it blew a thermistor and I’m like what the heck like right away so I replaced that then it blew another thermistor and then I just said you know what I’m done with this thing this thing is a piece of garbage I replaced four parts had to mod one and it in like okay and then this spooled or you can’t even fit a normal spool of film and I look how then this is like it you cannot put a spool of filament on there so I don’t even know what the point of having that is but yeah it was just terrible we had Auto level sensor so I thought that was cool but I never even got to use it I literally did not I I played with this thing for two days never even got one print off of it so just so you guys know if I get anything I recommend it’s because I recommend it if I don’t like something I’d rather just not even make the review then make a video trashing it so just so you know don’t you know if I say something’s good I’m not lying you guys I will not redo a review on something I do not like so this has been all my printers so let’s go inside I’ll give you a little conclusion of what I think and yeah okay guys so in conclusion which ones these are my favorite which ones I like the best okay so as far as partition style printers go my favourite smaller one is actually the any cubic ie three mega this is probably my most used on the joint it’s filled with just dirty as hell I use it all the time and you can print basically every type of material if anything goes wrong any cubics got great customer service but yeah sometimes it’s just not big enough for the job so sometimes I need something like my CHF back there or my JJ or or a five so the ginger I’ve only had this for like a month the CR ten I’ve had much longer Sanatana can honestly say is super reliable they have the best community ever then more people have the CR ken basically than any other printer so if one thing that really matters to you is being able to get support ask people for help if you’re totally new the CR ten is great the regulars here ten is pretty cheap it’s it’s well not cheap but it’s not as expensive as this one this one’s like 450 he’s still 300 to 350 or so for the regular one but honestly if you’re not gonna be printing huge all the time and you only have that much s but I would get the JJ Aurora because the JJ Aurora is on sale right now for only 319 and you can go almost as big as that and print every material and I honestly like this build platform better doesn’t have as big of a community behind it but I haven’t had to do anything like I literally have not done a single modification since I got this um CR ten though I see you cannot go wrong you lizard these are two of my favorite printers ever but the teamwork tornado also like all three of these are so close the team Oh tornado though I can turn it on and it’s all ready to go boom just like that the Tibor tornado if you get the newer one which if you ordered now yeah if you’re good don’t get one used um I would recommend getting one of the new ones I’ve gearbest if you’re gonna get one because you just affect the bedsheets up so fast and everything is so awesome Tibo also has great customer service they’re one of the only printers that comes with an actual instruction booklet this one’s also quite cheap right now it’s just a little over three hundred they take 325 or 350 of the most but it’s really cheap like when this first came out it was it was more than that as far as Delta printers go I’m gonna say anything from any cubic any cubic kills it if you don’t know how to money for the castle linear plus over there just get the regular castle I did a review on that too it in the past I gave that one to my brother but that printer is awesome and both any cubic they like no matter what you get they have awesome customer service the regular Castle much cheaper this one can do bigger stuff it can do more stuff it’s got a better power supply it can do different types of materials like abs and stuff where your regular one doesn’t have a heated bed and you can’t so if you’re only one we’ve got a budget you like building stuff I get the regular any cubic Castle but if you got extra money definitely get the lay meter plus back here we got the team of Michelangelo that think’s pretty nice but we got I’ve heard that the end or two it has heated bed so I think I’d rather get that but if you’re on a budget that one’s a little cheaper telling like 109 dollars but yeah overall I think your best bets are if you want something smaller get the any cubic I drew mega if you want something bigger and you got the money to spend and you don’t care about printing abs and stuff get the CR ten because having that big community really helps it means a lot but if you want to print all different materials get the JJ Aurora or the T book tornado hey JJ Turner though I have had more success printing abs and stuff the T Bo you can do it but it can be a little finicky so this is probably my sleeper I did not when I got this printer I didn’t know what to think of it and I’ve been blown away by this touchscreen too as well as the i3 is just killer but I love how this is all color and it just looks cool so yeah I could recommend any of these except the Thor BOTS and the zone star z5 don’t get either of those but any of these these are all good printers I’ll put links to all of them but yeah these are like my four favorite is boom boom boom boom and boom so thank you guys for watching I’ll see you later

Pros
light weight (10 kg),
expansive build volume (250φ mm x 200 mm),
efficient cooling system (for overall better quality prints),
preconfigured slicer software so you can get started printing fast (Cura – CREATABLE Edition),
simple user interface consisting of one control wheel for all printer actions,
OLED strips that glow different colors depending on the current state of the printer (Blue – Idle, Green – Currently Printing, Red – Heating), and
an extensive list of compatible printing materials (including ABS, PLA, Glow, Conductive, Color Change, Metallic, Woody, Magnetic, and Silk-like Filaments)
Verdict
Printed several of my own designs and designs I found online with this printer and I must say that I am quite pleased. It worked pretty well out of the box and required some leveling adjustments about a month later (what else is new). The magnetic joints are a nice touch, making the printhead much easier to maintain when the nozzle gets blocked. I Have had the unit for months now. The prints are great, the look much better than what I have seen examples of other units.

Pros
Born from the drive for absolute quality, the Pro2 Plus refines 3D printing for production grade environments. Upgrading and evolving traditional manufacturing.
Verdict
I have paid twice as much money for dedicated vase mode printers to print artificial limb sockets and protective covers that I spent for my Pro 2 plus. I liked it well enough that I bought the smaller version Pro 2 also. I had to make my own 2 mm nozzles, but I’m able to print in vase mode using PETG by programming 309°C in my slicing software. The plastic is moving so fast through the nozzle that this averages 245°C which is perfect. Most printers won’t allow you to print this hot so I’m grateful for this feature. I was afraid that the smaller stepper motors might be an issue but they are truly beasts and they handle these tasks with ease. I love the fact that I can print 2.5 mm wide and .45 mm high which gives me extreme speed for this type of printing. I also love the fact that with 2 nozzles I can go from vase mode to find detailed printing. The touchscreen operation is great. The printer is so quiet you can barely hear it printing. Print interruption recovery is wonderful and I’ve never had that feature on a 3-D printer. Network and Web Cam server capabilities are also features that I will never do without again. The removable bedplate is great because I need to print on the aluminum surface on the back for beads as widest 2.5 mm. I use a spray contact cement on this side for bonding. These heavy beads tend to stick too hard to the printing surface on the opposite side which is the default bed. And while I’m on the subject of this default surface, it is fantastic. I use no glue whatsoever when printing for fine resolution on the side. This printer is truly a work of art. I haven’t experienced any of the problems that I’ve seen other reviews on. Good job Raised 3D!

Summary
Performance and Use 
Pros
Verdict
Whats up all, so today I was really excited because I’m gonna go through and take ten of my 3d printers compare them all tell you which ones I liked which was I don’t like what I like about them what the differences are what might suit your needs and yeah we’re just gonna go through all them so I currently have ten FDM printers and one DLP resin printer so I’m gonna go through all the FDM printers today and there’s a huge 3-d printer sale going on in gearbest so if you want to check out any of these there’ll be a link in the description where you can check out each one I’ll also put just a link to their overall sale page and yeah basically all the 3d printers are on sale right now so if you���re you know trying to figure out which one to buy this might be a good video for you so let’s go inside cuz I didn’t have enough room out here and I got all the 3d printers on the table and let’s go check it out okay guys so check it out I got nine different printers here let me get a higher angle so you can maybe see this better um let’s start off let me just go through and tell you what I got here on the table let’s start here this is a CR 10 s I got an a net a for Delta an FL Sun Delta in the back there I got a TiVo Michaelangelo jg r or a 5 any cubic I three mega TiVo tornado Thor bot buddy couple dual extrusion printer and the any cubic linear plus Delta okay so we’ll start it back here at the CR 10 and we’ll just work our way to the left here now this is the CR 10s I previously had the regular CR 10 and I gave that to my dad for Christmas I’ve also had several clones of the CR 10 like you know like the team or trader over there but I’ve had the trunk see what is it the x3 I think it’s called I also had the a net e 10 and the a net e 12 both of them I don’t currently have but they’re all very good machines but the CR 10 out of all the this and the TiVo definitely do it the best that’s why I kept this one the regular CR 10 is great especially if you’re trying to save a little money you do get extra features on this one so the extra features you get with the S model is you get a filament run-out sensor you get a power resume so like if I accidentally unplug it or if after that you know if the power goes out or something I can just restart it also too we get dual z-axis work threaded rods and motors so it’s a little more stable but it basically the print quality is basically the same you get very very very good print quality on the CR 10 and how I’m gonna say how good everything prints is I’m gonna compare it to the C okay I feel like the CR 10 right now is kind of like the benchmark so this is something I printed on the CRC our 10 its Yoda benches and pretty cool he’s like Yoda group Benji yeah really really bizarre well you know I said printed printing this really good I didn’t do any clean up after like it’s still a little you know burrs on it and stuff cuz I haven’t ripped off the brim either this literally got done printing 10 minutes ago before I started reporting all the printers on the table okay so the things that logo out the CR 10 first off it can print huge it’s got you know a huge build volume it prints great quality obviously things I don’t like though is you can’t really print abs unless you mod it there the bed does not like to get hot enough and the extruder can but the bed just does not really get over like 70 degrees it’s quite hard to get it over 70 degrees but and I also don’t like how it takes up so much room on the table but that’s good is it you know it’s a big printer so I guess it’s kind of a trade-off but it is very good it’s very stable you don’t really have to do any tweaks once you get it up and running good you just keep it the same like I haven’t had to have retighten the belts I haven’t you basically just level the bed if you move the printer if you don’t move it it doesn’t really go out of whack okay so this one though is like 450 ish with the sale price so it is a little pricier but you’re getting probably the biggest community to behind the printer okay so let’s move onto the next one okay so next we got the a net a for Delta okay now this one comes almost all the way assembled I think it took me a little over an hour and I’ve done reviews on all these if you want to look further into them but this printer I really like it actually it printed really good right out of the box here’s something I printed on it I mean not perfect but not bad and yeah I mean I like how the spool holder too is just like right on top that’s already good to go um I was I’m normally not the biggest fan of a net but I like this one I like this more than the a nut e 12 and the a nut e 10 both of which I’ve had in the past but I don’t have currently um I do not like how it’s just these push buttons oh I prefer the the old knob and stuff like most the printers have but other than that it’s actually surprisingly good quality it’s got belt tensioners already on it you don’t have to print off any parts basically it basically done no modifications to it and it’s printing pretty decent okay next we got another Delta in the back here this one is cheaper it’s definitely way harder to make like this one took me maybe 10 to 12 hours to put together but there is some cool features on this like it has bring this up a bit bear with me here I need to stuff around okay it has an auto level so like you can hear that click so it probes the bed and you know the auto levels you just type in g29 to the start code and based on that is really nice because it’s a very cheap printer that you don’t have I think it’s like a hundred and seventy bucks normally or with sale or whatever that’s very cheap printer there’s also some pretty high quality parks like all these plastic parts are all injection molded there’s not really any printed parts on it I I added a heated bed so it did not come with a heated bed they do also sell a heated bed version but stock one does not that one is a kind of a pain to put together but other than that that’s a pretty good printer it’s got pretty good quality on a bed level so it was a plus the wire management is a little crazy like the wires are just like hanging everywhere which I don’t like but other than that you can’t really not get the prints really good next we got this one here this is the jg Aurora a5 now this is one of my new favorite printers I’ve only had this not that long but man I think I like this maybe more doesn’t see our time honestly it prints just as good the quality except this one I can print ABS I can print nylon and I for any high temp material it prints great it got basically this is basically like the same thing as the any cubic ultrabass like you see here on the i3 mega mom so it you know you don’t have to put any adhesive on there or anything um I do think this printer is awesome because unlike the CR 10 how I got the control box to the side and everything everything’s right in here it’s just one solid printer like you could just you could like literally pick it up while it’s printing and it wouldn’t really affect the print now let me show you one of the coolest things about this only turned on okay so you’ll notice a little loud just that one fan but you’ll notice it’s full colored touchscreen I think like literally everything like all printers should have this um I think you know just your standard Marlin you know turn knob just the blue screen it’s really getting old I think it’s 21st century everything should use this this also just like the CR 10 it’s got you can auto resume for after power loss it’s got a filament run-out sensor over here and then I love how like the filaments tucked away like from the front you can’t even see it I’ll also to like I like how it’s all like you know from the back you can’t really you can see it but you can I got a big mess of ABS that got stuck on a film print and I didn’t fix it so ignore that but I like how like you can’t really see the nozzle and everything um this printer though this is probably the best deal in 3d printer right now cuz I think now it’s on sale for like 319 or something and it’s based you’re basically giving a CR 10 that can print ABS the build volume in the z-axis isn’t as high it’s 100 millimeters shorter so you won’t be able print as high stuff but it’s just as big on the X and the y so it’s like 305 by 305 by 300 I think so that’s pretty big okay now one printer that is very similar to this one sorry this is very dirty it was a my garage and it got really dirty I have been using this on a lot those is one of my most used printer this is my any cubic I three mega now this printer it’s it’s honestly it’s like a smaller one of these I think this one came out first I’m not quite sure but basically both these printers you can put them together in five minutes so that is just hands-down freaking awesome but besides that the any cubic I three mega also has the touchscreen the colors aren’t as vivid as the touchscreen on there and also has the filament run-out sensor power on/off and everything I can also print ABS and all those different materials also has this awesome ultra base yeah I think this printer if you don’t need a big printer it’s like what is still pretty big it’s bigger than like your standard like a net eight or a six or anything but if you don’t need like a giant printer this might be the printer to get and I’ve personally dealt with any cubic two different times and both times they were like the best customer service ever so my ultra base my first time I got it came messed up they sent me a brand new or no-questions-asked had it shipped out that day so that is pretty awesome I mean now let’s go here to the back and we got the TiVo michelangelo’s a small little little printer it’s also a very cheap printer one thing about it is it comes basically a 100 percent of samples like you don’t have to do anything you just plug it in it prints actually quite well the only downside is there’s no heated bed I heard they are remodeling it with a heated bed I don’t know if that’s gonna up the price because this printer is just over a hundred dollars if you want something small that doesn’t take up a lot of space and just want it really easy to set up foam your newb this might be a printer for you it doesn’t have a huge build volume but it’s big enough to print you know you’re just you’re right unless you’re not printing something like a face you know you’re gonna be okay I mean it’s still pretty decent-sized it’s just nothing crazy okay next we got maybe the best 3d printer they came out last year I don’t know we got the TiVo tornado now I think the CR 10 was just killing everybody and then a bunch of clones came out of the shower time like that Ian at E 12 a 90/10 the Tron see whatever X 3 or whatever X 5 or whatever it’s called but then this printer came out and they’re like you know they got all the same design same size but they did some changes and I really really really like what they did here they added a AC heating module for the bed so the bed can literally heat up in minutes – like ABS temperatures this printer isn’t the best of printing abs if you enclose it it is but I’ve had some problems I can print ABS on it but sometimes the parts will warp especially if it’s a big print if it’s a small print it’s usually okay but yeah just cuz it’s so big also – if you have it in a hot room that’ll help but this printer is just awesome I love this TiVo Titan extruder this is by far my favorite extruder and they sent a dexter one I haven’t had to use it but it’s all very similar to the CR ten one thing I don’t like about is it does not come with a spool holder so it comes with like an STL file or AG code so you can just print one but they they should have already had that printed for you but yeah I don’t know it just prints I can burn really fast on this notes – like the CR 10 I try not to get it above 60 millimeters a second this one I can easily print at like 70 sometimes 80 if it’s not that complex you know of a design but our sorry of a model but yeah it prints great great quality I’d say just as good quality as the CR 10 I did have some salmon skin effects I think on all the new models so if you’re by now you you won’t have that I think they’d use a different board now but I had to add some TL smoothers they were very cheap but I had to add them to the box so that’s why my control box is open here so maybe I can just show it to you I never put the screws back on but um yeah that’s what come on sorry trying to do this with one hand so those are the TL smothers so they’re very easy they just plug right in so I added those and it eliminated the salmon skin and yeah it just prints beautifully okay so we got two more two printers on the table here this one this one I really like this is the any cubic linear plus I just recently did a review on this it’s got this awesome auto bed level probe so you put this on it’s just a magnet this is it sticks right on whoops right there and then it probes you know but I’m gonna be like beep beep beep it does like 39 spots and then you know then you hit store on the member here it stores it in and then when you go to print it knows where everything is it works perfect and I love this build platform it does have a heated bed and this comes almost all the way assembled I also really like how this ball holder is just on the metal frame right there the power supply you know it’s nice and safe has the on/off switch yeah I just really really really like this one okay so next time we’re gonna go let’s move this one a little okay we got the robot Bonnie couple okay now let me tell you when I first got this printer I thought it was the bee’s knees I was like this thing is so friggin awesome you can print dot two different colors you can mix colors after having it for a month the thing doesn’t work anymore it still turns on and everything but it jams every time I try to print two colors I even changed this whole carriage this guy remodeled this saying he had the same problem but my problems didn’t really change I’m definitely gonna have to do some work on that I was gonna give that one away to my friend but I don’t even I gotta fix it before him and give it to him cuz I feel bad giving it to him so this printer it’s all metal construction everything it would compute to colors it was really cool but after a month it just crapped out on me and I cannot figure it out it’s in the nozzle it uses this a crazy giant giant nozzle you can see there’s a huge mess of stuff on there let me zoom in oh yeah it’s huge it’s like five hundred times the size of a regular nozzle so I need to know how you replace that I don’t know what the inside of the hot end is like they both feed in there in this fan on it is so loud I got if I was gonna keep that I would replace those fans yeah it printed great for like a month and then it just started clogging all the time I don’t know if he just they got buildup in there I was trying to you know I’ve taken good care of it I don’t really know but okay so these are all the printers I have in there I have one more printer that doesn’t fit it’s not that big I just didn’t have any more room on the table so let me go grab that and I’ll show you that and then we can wrap this up okay guys this is the zone star z5 and you have never seen this on my channel that is because I refused to review this one it was so bad it had so many problems right out the box that I didn’t review it and I just salvaged different parts that’s why not everything is here but it is basically absolutely horrendous I have never checked out any other zone star products but I do not want to this was a nightmare to put together it was supposed to be a fast assembly but that’s not even it there was two broken end stops off the box so I had replacement stuff so I replaced them then after replacing I might notice the why and stop the bed can go so far back that it will be printing in midair like you won’t even you know I mean like it’ll be way off here so I had to mod it to pull it forward and it still didn’t work okay so then after I finally got everything set up I replaced it with a bunch of my own parts I turned it on and then it blew a thermistor and I’m like what the heck like right away so I replaced that then it blew another thermistor and then I just said you know what I’m done with this thing this thing is a piece of garbage I replaced four parts had to mod one and it in like okay and then this spooled or you can’t even fit a normal spool of film and I look how then this is like it you cannot put a spool of filament on there so I don’t even know what the point of having that is but yeah it was just terrible we had Auto level sensor so I thought that was cool but I never even got to use it I literally did not I I played with this thing for two days never even got one print off of it so just so you guys know if I get anything I recommend it’s because I recommend it if I don’t like something I’d rather just not even make the review then make a video trashing it so just so you know don’t you know if I say something’s good I’m not lying you guys I will not redo a review on something I do not like so this has been all my printers so let’s go inside I’ll give you a little conclusion of what I think and yeah okay guys so in conclusion which ones these are my favorite which ones I like the best okay so as far as partition style printers go my favourite smaller one is actually the any cubic ie three mega this is probably my most used on the joint it’s filled with just dirty as hell I use it all the time and you can print basically every type of material if anything goes wrong any cubics got great customer service but yeah sometimes it’s just not big enough for the job so sometimes I need something like my CHF back there or my JJ or or a five so the ginger I’ve only had this for like a month the CR ten I’ve had much longer Sanatana can honestly say is super reliable they have the best community ever then more people have the CR ken basically than any other printer so if one thing that really matters to you is being able to get support ask people for help if you’re totally new the CR ten is great the regulars here ten is pretty cheap it’s it’s well not cheap but it’s not as expensive as this one this one’s like 450 he’s still 300 to 350 or so for the regular one but honestly if you’re not gonna be printing huge all the time and you only have that much s but I would get the JJ Aurora because the JJ Aurora is on sale right now for only 319 and you can go almost as big as that and print every material and I honestly like this build platform better doesn’t have as big of a community behind it but I haven’t had to do anything like I literally have not done a single modification since I got this um CR ten though I see you cannot go wrong you lizard these are two of my favorite printers ever but the teamwork tornado also like all three of these are so close the team Oh tornado though I can turn it on and it’s all ready to go boom just like that the Tibor tornado if you get the newer one which if you ordered now yeah if you’re good don’t get one used um I would recommend getting one of the new ones I’ve gearbest if you’re gonna get one because you just affect the bedsheets up so fast and everything is so awesome Tibo also has great customer service they’re one of the only printers that comes with an actual instruction booklet this one’s also quite cheap right now it’s just a little over three hundred they take 325 or 350 of the most but it’s really cheap like when this first came out it was it was more than that as far as Delta printers go I’m gonna say anything from any cubic any cubic kills it if you don’t know how to money for the castle linear plus over there just get the regular castle I did a review on that too it in the past I gave that one to my brother but that printer is awesome and both any cubic they like no matter what you get they have awesome customer service the regular Castle much cheaper this one can do bigger stuff it can do more stuff it’s got a better power supply it can do different types of materials like abs and stuff where your regular one doesn’t have a heated bed and you can’t so if you’re only one we’ve got a budget you like building stuff I get the regular any cubic Castle but if you got extra money definitely get the lay meter plus back here we got the team of Michelangelo that think’s pretty nice but we got I’ve heard that the end or two it has heated bed so I think I’d rather get that but if you’re on a budget that one’s a little cheaper telling like 109 dollars but yeah overall I think your best bets are if you want something smaller get the any cubic I drew mega if you want something bigger and you got the money to spend and you don’t care about printing abs and stuff get the CR ten because having that big community really helps it means a lot but if you want to print all different materials get the JJ Aurora or the T book tornado hey JJ Turner though I have had more success printing abs and stuff the T Bo you can do it but it can be a little finicky so this is probably my sleeper I did not when I got this printer I didn’t know what to think of it and I’ve been blown away by this touchscreen too as well as the i3 is just killer but I love how this is all color and it just looks cool so yeah I could recommend any of these except the Thor BOTS and the zone star z5 don’t get either of those but any of these these are all good printers I’ll put links to all of them but yeah these are like my four favorite is boom boom boom boom and boom so thank you guys for watching I’ll see you later

Easy Belt-Tension Adjustment: our proprietary lift-block design allows for timing belt tensions to be conveniently adjustable through the lift-block itself, allowing for high quality prints, always
Thermally-Isolated Printhead: nozzle blockage and problems caused by overhang and bridging have been minimized, while print quality has been maximized
Designed to merge into any environment without disrupting your aesthetics and workflow
Pros
light weight (10 kg),
expansive build volume (250φ mm x 200 mm),
efficient cooling system (for overall better quality prints),
preconfigured slicer software so you can get started printing fast (Cura – CREATABLE Edition),
simple user interface consisting of one control wheel for all printer actions,
OLED strips that glow different colors depending on the current state of the printer (Blue – Idle, Green – Currently Printing, Red – Heating), and
an extensive list of compatible printing materials (including ABS, PLA, Glow, Conductive, Color Change, Metallic, Woody, Magnetic, and Silk-like Filaments)
Verdict
Printed several of my own designs and designs I found online with this printer and I must say that I am quite pleased. It worked pretty well out of the box and required some leveling adjustments about a month later (what else is new). The magnetic joints are a nice touch, making the printhead much easier to maintain when the nozzle gets blocked. I Have had the unit for months now. The prints are great, the look much better than what I have seen examples of other units.

Pros
Born from the drive for absolute quality, the Pro2 Plus refines 3D printing for production grade environments. Upgrading and evolving traditional manufacturing.
Verdict
I have paid twice as much money for dedicated vase mode printers to print artificial limb sockets and protective covers that I spent for my Pro 2 plus. I liked it well enough that I bought the smaller version Pro 2 also. I had to make my own 2 mm nozzles, but I’m able to print in vase mode using PETG by programming 309°C in my slicing software. The plastic is moving so fast through the nozzle that this averages 245°C which is perfect. Most printers won’t allow you to print this hot so I’m grateful for this feature. I was afraid that the smaller stepper motors might be an issue but they are truly beasts and they handle these tasks with ease. I love the fact that I can print 2.5 mm wide and .45 mm high which gives me extreme speed for this type of printing. I also love the fact that with 2 nozzles I can go from vase mode to find detailed printing. The touchscreen operation is great. The printer is so quiet you can barely hear it printing. Print interruption recovery is wonderful and I’ve never had that feature on a 3-D printer. Network and Web Cam server capabilities are also features that I will never do without again. The removable bedplate is great because I need to print on the aluminum surface on the back for beads as widest 2.5 mm. I use a spray contact cement on this side for bonding. These heavy beads tend to stick too hard to the printing surface on the opposite side which is the default bed. And while I’m on the subject of this default surface, it is fantastic. I use no glue whatsoever when printing for fine resolution on the side. This printer is truly a work of art. I haven’t experienced any of the problems that I’ve seen other reviews on. Good job Raised 3D!

Performance and Use 
Pros
Verdict
Whats up all, so today I was really excited because I’m gonna go through and take ten of my 3d printers compare them all tell you which ones I liked which was I don’t like what I like about them what the differences are what might suit your needs and yeah we’re just gonna go through all them so I currently have ten FDM printers and one DLP resin printer so I’m gonna go through all the FDM printers today and there’s a huge 3-d printer sale going on in gearbest so if you want to check out any of these there’ll be a link in the description where you can check out each one I’ll also put just a link to their overall sale page and yeah basically all the 3d printers are on sale right now so if you’re you know trying to figure out which one to buy this might be a good video for you so let’s go inside cuz I didn’t have enough room out here and I got all the 3d printers on the table and let’s go check it out okay guys so check it out I got nine different printers here let me get a higher angle so you can maybe see this better um let’s start off let me just go through and tell you what I got here on the table let’s start here this is a CR 10 s I got an a net a for Delta an FL Sun Delta in the back there I got a TiVo Michaelangelo jg r or a 5 any cubic I three mega TiVo tornado Thor bot buddy couple dual extrusion printer and the any cubic linear plus Delta okay so we’ll start it back here at the CR 10 and we’ll just work our way to the left here now this is the CR 10s I previously had the regular CR 10 and I gave that to my dad for Christmas I’ve also had several clones of the CR 10 like you know like the team or trader over there but I’ve had the trunk see what is it the x3 I think it’s called I also had the a net e 10 and the a net e 12 both of them I don’t currently have but they’re all very good machines but the CR 10 out of all the this and the TiVo definitely do it the best that’s why I kept this one the regular CR 10 is great especially if you’re trying to save a little money you do get extra features on this one so the extra features you get with the S model is you get a filament run-out sensor you get a power resume so like if I accidentally unplug it or if after that you know if the power goes out or something I can just restart it also too we get dual z-axis work threaded rods and motors so it’s a little more stable but it basically the print quality is basically the same you get very very very good print quality on the CR 10 and how I’m gonna say how good everything prints is I’m gonna compare it to the C okay I feel like the CR 10 right now is kind of like the benchmark so this is something I printed on the CRC our 10 its Yoda benches and pretty cool he’s like Yoda group Benji yeah really really bizarre well you know I said printed printing this really good I didn’t do any clean up after like it’s still a little you know burrs on it and stuff cuz I haven’t ripped off the brim either this literally got done printing 10 minutes ago before I started reporting all the printers on the table okay so the things that logo out the CR 10 first off it can print huge it’s got you know a huge build volume it prints great quality obviously things I don’t like though is you can’t really print abs unless you mod it there the bed does not like to get hot enough and the extruder can but the bed just does not really get over like 70 degrees it’s quite hard to get it over 70 degrees but and I also don’t like how it takes up so much room on the table but that’s good is it you know it’s a big printer so I guess it’s kind of a trade-off but it is very good it’s very stable you don’t really have to do any tweaks once you get it up and running good you just keep it the same like I haven’t had to have retighten the belts I haven’t you basically just level the bed if you move the printer if you don’t move it it doesn’t really go out of whack okay so this one though is like 450 ish with the sale price so it is a little pricier but you’re getting probably the biggest community to behind the printer okay so let’s move onto the next one okay so next we got the a net a for Delta okay now this one comes almost all the way assembled I think it took me a little over an hour and I’ve done reviews on all these if you want to look further into them but this printer I really like it actually it printed really good right out of the box here’s something I printed on it I mean not perfect but not bad and yeah I mean I like how the spool holder too is just like right on top that’s already good to go um I was I’m normally not the biggest fan of a net but I like this one I like this more than the a nut e 12 and the a nut e 10 both of which I’ve had in the past but I don’t have currently um I do not like how it’s just these push buttons oh I prefer the the old knob and stuff like most the printers have but other than that it’s actually surprisingly good quality it’s got belt tensioners already on it you don’t have to print off any parts basically it basically done no modifications to it and it’s printing pretty decent okay next we got another Delta in the back here this one is cheaper it’s definitely way harder to make like this one took me maybe 10 to 12 hours to put together but there is some cool features on this like it has bring this up a bit bear with me here I need to stuff around okay it has an auto level so like you can hear that click so it probes the bed and you know the auto levels you just type in g29 to the start code and based on that is really nice because it’s a very cheap printer that you don’t have I think it’s like a hundred and seventy bucks normally or with sale or whatever that’s very cheap printer there’s also some pretty high quality parks like all these plastic parts are all injection molded there’s not really any printed parts on it I I added a heated bed so it did not come with a heated bed they do also sell a heated bed version but stock one does not that one is a kind of a pain to put together but other than that that’s a pretty good printer it’s got pretty good quality on a bed level so it was a plus the wire management is a little crazy like the wires are just like hanging everywhere which I don’t like but other than that you can’t really not get the prints really good next we got this one here this is the jg Aurora a5 now this is one of my new favorite printers I’ve only had this not that long but man I think I like this maybe more doesn’t see our time honestly it prints just as good the quality except this one I can print ABS I can print nylon and I for any high temp material it prints great it got basically this is basically like the same thing as the any cubic ultrabass like you see here on the i3 mega mom so it you know you don’t have to put any adhesive on there or anything um I do think this printer is awesome because unlike the CR 10 how I got the control box to the side and everything everything’s right in here it’s just one solid printer like you could just you could like literally pick it up while it’s printing and it wouldn’t really affect the print now let me show you one of the coolest things about this only turned on okay so you’ll notice a little loud just that one fan but you’ll notice it’s full colored touchscreen I think like literally everything like all printers should have this um I think you know just your standard Marlin you know turn knob just the blue screen it’s really getting old I think it’s 21st century everything should use this this also just like the CR 10 it’s got you can auto resume for after power loss it’s got a filament run-out sensor over here and then I love how like the filaments tucked away like from the front you can’t even see it I’ll also to like I like how it’s all like you know from the back you can’t really you can see it but you can I got a big mess of ABS that got stuck on a film print and I didn’t fix it so ignore that but I like how like you can’t really see the nozzle and everything um this printer though this is probably the best deal in 3d printer right now cuz I think now it’s on sale for like 319 or something and it’s based you’re basically giving a CR 10 that can print ABS the build volume in the z-axis isn’t as high it’s 100 millimeters shorter so you won’t be able print as high stuff but it’s just as big on the X and the y so it’s like 305 by 305 by 300 I think so that’s pretty big okay now one printer that is very similar to this one sorry this is very dirty it was a my garage and it got really dirty I have been using this on a lot those is one of my most used printer this is my any cubic I three mega now this printer it’s it’s honestly it’s like a smaller one of these I think this one came out first I’m not quite sure but basically both these printers you can put them together in five minutes so that is just hands-down freaking awesome but besides that the any cubic I three mega also has the touchscreen the colors aren’t as vivid as the touchscreen on there and also has the filament run-out sensor power on/off and everything I can also print ABS and all those different materials also has this awesome ultra base yeah I think this printer if you don’t need a big printer it’s like what is still pretty big it’s bigger than like your standard like a net eight or a six or anything but if you don’t need like a giant printer this might be the printer to get and I’ve personally dealt with any cubic two different times and both times they were like the best customer service ever so my ultra base my first time I got it came messed up they sent me a brand new or no-questions-asked had it shipped out that day so that is pretty awesome I mean now let’s go here to the back and we got the TiVo michelangelo’s a small little little printer it’s also a very cheap printer one thing about it is it comes basically a 100 percent of samples like you don’t have to do anything you just plug it in it prints actually quite well the only downside is there’s no heated bed I heard they are remodeling it with a heated bed I don’t know if that’s gonna up the price because this printer is just over a hundred dollars if you want something small that doesn’t take up a lot of space and just want it really easy to set up foam your newb this might be a printer for you it doesn’t have a huge build volume but it’s big enough to print you know you’re just you’re right unless you’re not printing something like a face you know you’re gonna be okay I mean it’s still pretty decent-sized it’s just nothing crazy okay next we got maybe the best 3d printer they came out last year I don’t know we got the TiVo tornado now I think the CR 10 was just killing everybody and then a bunch of clones came out of the shower time like that Ian at E 12 a 90/10 the Tron see whatever X 3 or whatever X 5 or whatever it’s called but then this printer came out and they’re like you know they got all the same design same size but they did some changes and I really really really like what they did here they added a AC heating module for the bed so the bed can literally heat up in minutes – like ABS temperatures this printer isn’t the best of printing abs if you enclose it it is but I’ve had some problems I can print ABS on it but sometimes the parts will warp especially if it’s a big print if it’s a small print it’s usually okay but yeah just cuz it’s so big also – if you have it in a hot room that’ll help but this printer is just awesome I love this TiVo Titan extruder this is by far my favorite extruder and they sent a dexter one I haven’t had to use it but it’s all very similar to the CR ten one thing I don’t like about is it does not come with a spool holder so it comes with like an STL file or AG code so you can just print one but they they should have already had that printed for you but yeah I don’t know it just prints I can burn really fast on this notes – like the CR 10 I try not to get it above 60 millimeters a second this one I can easily print at like 70 sometimes 80 if it’s not that complex you know of a design but our sorry of a model but yeah it prints great great quality I’d say just as good quality as the CR 10 I did have some salmon skin effects I think on all the new models so if you’re by now you you won’t have that I think they’d use a different board now but I had to add some TL smoothers they were very cheap but I had to add them to the box so that’s why my control box is open here so maybe I can just show it to you I never put the screws back on but um yeah that’s what come on sorry trying to do this with one hand so those are the TL smothers so they’re very easy they just plug right in so I added those and it eliminated the salmon skin and yeah it just prints beautifully okay so we got two more two printers on the table here this one this one I really like this is the any cubic linear plus I just recently did a review on this it’s got this awesome auto bed level probe so you put this on it’s just a magnet this is it sticks right on whoops right there and then it probes you know but I’m gonna be like beep beep beep it does like 39 spots and then you know then you hit store on the member here it stores it in and then when you go to print it knows where everything is it works perfect and I love this build platform it does have a heated bed and this comes almost all the way assembled I also really like how this ball holder is just on the metal frame right there the power supply you know it’s nice and safe has the on/off switch yeah I just really really really like this one okay so next time we’re gonna go let’s move this one a little okay we got the robot Bonnie couple okay now let me tell you when I first got this printer I thought it was the bee’s knees I was like this thing is so friggin awesome you can print dot two different colors you can mix colors after having it for a month the thing doesn’t work anymore it still turns on and everything but it jams every time I try to print two colors I even changed this whole carriage this guy remodeled this saying he had the same problem but my problems didn’t really change I’m definitely gonna have to do some work on that I was gonna give that one away to my friend but I don’t even I gotta fix it before him and give it to him cuz I feel bad giving it to him so this printer it’s all metal construction everything it would compute to colors it was really cool but after a month it just crapped out on me and I cannot figure it out it’s in the nozzle it uses this a crazy giant giant nozzle you can see there’s a huge mess of stuff on there let me zoom in oh yeah it’s huge it’s like five hundred times the size of a regular nozzle so I need to know how you replace that I don’t know what the inside of the hot end is like they both feed in there in this fan on it is so loud I got if I was gonna keep that I would replace those fans yeah it printed great for like a month and then it just started clogging all the time I don’t know if he just they got buildup in there I was trying to you know I’ve taken good care of it I don’t really know but okay so these are all the printers I have in there I have one more printer that doesn’t fit it’s not that big I just didn’t have any more room on the table so let me go grab that and I’ll show you that and then we can wrap this up okay guys this is the zone star z5 and you have never seen this on my channel that is because I refused to review this one it was so bad it had so many problems right out the box that I didn’t review it and I just salvaged different parts that’s why not everything is here but it is basically absolutely horrendous I have never checked out any other zone star products but I do not want to this was a nightmare to put together it was supposed to be a fast assembly but that’s not even it there was two broken end stops off the box so I had replacement stuff so I replaced them then after replacing I might notice the why and stop the bed can go so far back that it will be printing in midair like you won’t even you know I mean like it’ll be way off here so I had to mod it to pull it forward and it still didn’t work okay so then after I finally got everything set up I replaced it with a bunch of my own parts I turned it on and then it blew a thermistor and I’m like what the heck like right away so I replaced that then it blew another thermistor and then I just said you know what I’m done with this thing this thing is a piece of garbage I replaced four parts had to mod one and it in like okay and then this spooled or you can’t even fit a normal spool of film and I look how then this is like it you cannot put a spool of filament on there so I don’t even know what the point of having that is but yeah it was just terrible we had Auto level sensor so I thought that was cool but I never even got to use it I literally did not I I played with this thing for two days never even got one print off of it so just so you guys know if I get anything I recommend it’s because I recommend it if I don’t like something I’d rather just not even make the review then make a video trashing it so just so you know don’t you know if I say something’s good I’m not lying you guys I will not redo a review on something I do not like so this has been all my printers so let’s go inside I’ll give you a little conclusion of what I think and yeah okay guys so in conclusion which ones these are my favorite which ones I like the best okay so as far as partition style printers go my favourite smaller one is actually the any cubic ie three mega this is probably my most used on the joint it’s filled with just dirty as hell I use it all the time and you can print basically every type of material if anything goes wrong any cubics got great customer service but yeah sometimes it’s just not big enough for the job so sometimes I need something like my CHF back there or my JJ or or a five so the ginger I’ve only had this for like a month the CR ten I’ve had much longer Sanatana can honestly say is super reliable they have the best community ever then more people have the CR ken basically than any other printer so if one thing that really matters to you is being able to get support ask people for help if you’re totally new the CR ten is great the regulars here ten is pretty cheap it’s it’s well not cheap but it’s not as expensive as this one this one’s like 450 he’s still 300 to 350 or so for the regular one but honestly if you’re not gonna be printing huge all the time and you only have that much s but I would get the JJ Aurora because the JJ Aurora is on sale right now for only 319 and you can go almost as big as that and print every material and I honestly like this build platform better doesn’t have as big of a community behind it but I haven’t had to do anything like I literally have not done a single modification since I got this um CR ten though I see you cannot go wrong you lizard these are two of my favorite printers ever but the teamwork tornado also like all three of these are so close the team Oh tornado though I can turn it on and it’s all ready to go boom just like that the Tibor tornado if you get the newer one which if you ordered now yeah if you’re good don’t get one used um I would recommend getting one of the new ones I’ve gearbest if you’re gonna get one because you just affect the bedsheets up so fast and everything is so awesome Tibo also has great customer service they’re one of the only printers that comes with an actual instruction booklet this one’s also quite cheap right now it’s just a little over three hundred they take 325 or 350 of the most but it’s really cheap like when this first came out it was it was more than that as far as Delta printers go I’m gonna say anything from any cubic any cubic kills it if you don’t know how to money for the castle linear plus over there just get the regular castle I did a review on that too it in the past I gave that one to my brother but that printer is awesome and both any cubic they like no matter what you get they have awesome customer service the regular Castle much cheaper this one can do bigger stuff it can do more stuff it’s got a better power supply it can do different types of materials like abs and stuff where your regular one doesn’t have a heated bed and you can’t so if you’re only one we’ve got a budget you like building stuff I get the regular any cubic Castle but if you got extra money definitely get the lay meter plus back here we got the team of Michelangelo that think’s pretty nice but we got I’ve heard that the end or two it has heated bed so I think I’d rather get that but if you’re on a budget that one’s a little cheaper telling like 109 dollars but yeah overall I think your best bets are if you want something smaller get the any cubic I drew mega if you want something bigger and you got the money to spend and you don’t care about printing abs and stuff get the CR ten because having that big community really helps it means a lot but if you want to print all different materials get the JJ Aurora or the T book tornado hey JJ Turner though I have had more success printing abs and stuff the T Bo you can do it but it can be a little finicky so this is probably my sleeper I did not when I got this printer I didn’t know what to think of it and I’ve been blown away by this touchscreen too as well as the i3 is just killer but I love how this is all color and it just looks cool so yeah I could recommend any of these except the Thor BOTS and the zone star z5 don’t get either of those but any of these these are all good printers I’ll put links to all of them but yeah these are like my four favorite is boom boom boom boom and boom so thank you guys for watching I’ll see you later

Pros
light weight (10 kg),
expansive build volume (250φ mm x 200 mm),
efficient cooling system (for overall better quality prints),
preconfigured slicer software so you can get started printing fast (Cura – CREATABLE Edition),
simple user interface consisting of one control wheel for all printer actions,
OLED strips that glow different colors depending on the current state of the printer (Blue – Idle, Green – Currently Printing, Red – Heating), and
an extensive list of compatible printing materials (including ABS, PLA, Glow, Conductive, Color Change, Metallic, Woody, Magnetic, and Silk-like Filaments)
Verdict
Printed several of my own designs and designs I found online with this printer and I must say that I am quite pleased. It worked pretty well out of the box and required some leveling adjustments about a month later (what else is new). The magnetic joints are a nice touch, making the printhead much easier to maintain when the nozzle gets blocked. I Have had the unit for months now. The prints are great, the look much better than what I have seen examples of other units.

Pros
Born from the drive for absolute quality, the Pro2 Plus refines 3D printing for production grade environments. Upgrading and evolving traditional manufacturing.
Verdict
I have paid twice as much money for dedicated vase mode printers to print artificial limb sockets and protective covers that I spent for my Pro 2 plus. I liked it well enough that I bought the smaller version Pro 2 also. I had to make my own 2 mm nozzles, but I’m able to print in vase mode using PETG by programming 309°C in my slicing software. The plastic is moving so fast through the nozzle that this averages 245°C which is perfect. Most printers won’t allow you to print this hot so I’m grateful for this feature. I was afraid that the smaller stepper motors might be an issue but they are truly beasts and they handle these tasks with ease. I love the fact that I can print 2.5 mm wide and .45 mm high which gives me extreme speed for this type of printing. I also love the fact that with 2 nozzles I can go from vase mode to find detailed printing. The touchscreen operation is great. The printer is so quiet you can barely hear it printing. Print interruption recovery is wonderful and I’ve never had that feature on a 3-D printer. Network and Web Cam server capabilities are also features that I will never do without again. The removable bedplate is great because I need to print on the aluminum surface on the back for beads as widest 2.5 mm. I use a spray contact cement on this side for bonding. These heavy beads tend to stick too hard to the printing surface on the opposite side which is the default bed. And while I’m on the subject of this default surface, it is fantastic. I use no glue whatsoever when printing for fine resolution on the side. This printer is truly a work of art. I haven’t experienced any of the problems that I’ve seen other reviews on. Good job Raised 3D!

Summary
Performance and Use 
Pros
Verdict
Whats up all, so today I was really excited because I’m gonna go through and take ten of my 3d printers compare them all tell you which ones I liked which was I don’t like what I like about them what the differences are what might suit your needs and yeah we’re just gonna go through all them so I currently have ten FDM printers and one DLP resin printer so I’m gonna go through all the FDM printers today and there’s a huge 3-d printer sale going on in gearbest so if you want to check out any of these there’ll be a link in the description where you can check out each one I’ll also put just a link to their overall sale page and yeah basically all the 3d printers are on sale right now so if you’re you know trying to figure out which one to buy this might be a good video for you so let’s go inside cuz I didn’t have enough room out here and I got all the 3d printers on the table and let’s go check it out okay guys so check it out I got nine different printers here let me get a higher angle so you can maybe see this better um let’s start off let me just go through and tell you what I got here on the table let’s start here this is a CR 10 s I got an a net a for Delta an FL Sun Delta in the back there I got a TiVo Michaelangelo jg r or a 5 any cubic I three mega TiVo tornado Thor bot buddy couple dual extrusion printer and the any cubic linear plus Delta okay so we’ll start it back here at the CR 10 and we’ll just work our way to the left here now this is the CR 10s I previously had the regular CR 10 and I gave that to my dad for Christmas I’ve also had several clones of the CR 10 like you know like the team or trader over there but I’ve had the trunk see what is it the x3 I think it’s called I also had the a net e 10 and the a net e 12 both of them I don’t currently have but they’re all very good machines but the CR 10 out of all the this and the TiVo definitely do it the best that’s why I kept this one the regular CR 10 is great especially if you’re trying to save a little money you do get extra features on this one so the extra features you get with the S model is you get a filament run-out sensor you get a power resume so like if I accidentally unplug it or if after that you know if the power goes out or something I can just restart it also too we get dual z-axis work threaded rods and motors so it’s a little more stable but it basically the print quality is basically the same you get very very very good print quality on the CR 10 and how I’m gonna say how good everything prints is I’m gonna compare it to the C okay I feel like the CR 10 right now is kind of like the benchmark so this is something I printed on the CRC our 10 its Yoda benches and pretty cool he’s like Yoda group Benji yeah really really bizarre well you know I said printed printing this really good I didn’t do any clean up after like it’s still a little you know burrs on it and stuff cuz I haven’t ripped off the brim either this literally got done printing 10 minutes ago before I started reporting all the printers on the table okay so the things that logo out the CR 10 first off it can print huge it’s got you know a huge build volume it prints great quality obviously things I don’t like though is you can’t really print abs unless you mod it there the bed does not like to get hot enough and the extruder can but the bed just does not really get over like 70 degrees it’s quite hard to get it over 70 degrees but and I also don’t like how it takes up so much room on the table but that’s good is it you know it’s a big printer so I guess it’s kind of a trade-off but it is very good it’s very stable you don’t really have to do any tweaks once you get it up and running good you just keep it the same like I haven’t had to have retighten the belts I haven’t you basically just level the bed if you move the printer if you don’t move it it doesn’t really go out of whack okay so this one though is like 450 ish with the sale price so it is a little pricier but you’re getting probably the biggest community to behind the printer okay so let’s move onto the next one okay so next we got the a net a for Delta okay now this one comes almost all the way assembled I think it took me a little over an hour and I’ve done reviews on all these if you want to look further into them but this printer I really like it actually it printed really good right out of the box here’s something I printed on it I mean not perfect but not bad and yeah I mean I like how the spool holder too is just like right on top that’s already good to go um I was I’m normally not the biggest fan of a net but I like this one I like this more than the a nut e 12 and the a nut e 10 both of which I’ve had in the past but I don’t have currently um I do not like how it’s just these push buttons oh I prefer the the old knob and stuff like most the printers have but other than that it’s actually surprisingly good quality it’s got belt tensioners already on it you don’t have to print off any parts basically it basically done no modifications to it and it’s printing pretty decent okay next we got another Delta in the back here this one is cheaper it’s definitely way harder to make like this one took me maybe 10 to 12 hours to put together but there is some cool features on this like it has bring this up a bit bear with me here I need to stuff around okay it has an auto level so like you can hear that click so it probes the bed and you know the auto levels you just type in g29 to the start code and based on that is really nice because it’s a very cheap printer that you don’t have I think it’s like a hundred and seventy bucks normally or with sale or whatever that’s very cheap printer there’s also some pretty high quality parks like all these plastic parts are all injection molded there’s not really any printed parts on it I I added a heated bed so it did not come with a heated bed they do also sell a heated bed version but stock one does not that one is a kind of a pain to put together but other than that that’s a pretty good printer it’s got pretty good quality on a bed level so it was a plus the wire management is a little crazy like the wires are just like hanging everywhere which I don’t like but other than that you can’t really not get the prints really good next we got this one here this is the jg Aurora a5 now this is one of my new favorite printers I’ve only had this not that long but man I think I like this maybe more doesn’t see our time honestly it prints just as good the quality except this one I can print ABS I can print nylon and I for any high temp material it prints great it got basically this is basically like the same thing as the any cubic ultrabass like you see here on the i3 mega mom so it you know you don’t have to put any adhesive on there or anything um I do think this printer is awesome because unlike the CR 10 how I got the control box to the side and everything everything’s right in here it’s just one solid printer like you could just you could like literally pick it up while it’s printing and it wouldn’t really affect the print now let me show you one of the coolest things about this only turned on okay so you’ll notice a little loud just that one fan but you’ll notice it’s full colored touchscreen I think like literally everything like all printers should have this um I think you know just your standard Marlin you know turn knob just the blue screen it’s really getting old I think it’s 21st century everything should use this this also just like the CR 10 it’s got you can auto resume for after power loss it’s got a filament run-out sensor over here and then I love how like the filaments tucked away like from the front you can’t even see it I’ll also to like I like how it’s all like you know from the back you can’t really you can see it but you can I got a big mess of ABS that got stuck on a film print and I didn’t fix it so ignore that but I like how like you can’t really see the nozzle and everything um this printer though this is probably the best deal in 3d printer right now cuz I think now it’s on sale for like 319 or something and it’s based you’re basically giving a CR 10 that can print ABS the build volume in the z-axis isn’t as high it’s 100 millimeters shorter so you won’t be able print as high stuff but it’s just as big on the X and the y so it’s like 305 by 305 by 300 I think so that’s pretty big okay now one printer that is very similar to this one sorry this is very dirty it was a my garage and it got really dirty I have been using this on a lot those is one of my most used printer this is my any cubic I three mega now this printer it’s it’s honestly it’s like a smaller one of these I think this one came out first I’m not quite sure but basically both these printers you can put them together in five minutes so that is just hands-down freaking awesome but besides that the any cubic I three mega also has the touchscreen the colors aren’t as vivid as the touchscreen on there and also has the filament run-out sensor power on/off and everything I can also print ABS and all those different materials also has this awesome ultra base yeah I think this printer if you don’t need a big printer it’s like what is still pretty big it’s bigger than like your standard like a net eight or a six or anything but if you don’t need like a giant printer this might be the printer to get and I’ve personally dealt with any cubic two different times and both times they were like the best customer service ever so my ultra base my first time I got it came messed up they sent me a brand new or no-questions-asked had it shipped out that day so that is pretty awesome I mean now let’s go here to the back and we got the TiVo michelangelo’s a small little little printer it’s also a very cheap printer one thing about it is it comes basically a 100 percent of samples like you don’t have to do anything you just plug it in it prints actually quite well the only downside is there’s no heated bed I heard they are remodeling it with a heated bed I don’t know if that’s gonna up the price because this printer is just over a hundred dollars if you want something small that doesn’t take up a lot of space and just want it really easy to set up foam your newb this might be a printer for you it doesn’t have a huge build volume but it’s big enough to print you know you’re just you’re right unless you’re not printing something like a face you know you’re gonna be okay I mean it’s still pretty decent-sized it’s just nothing crazy okay next we got maybe the best 3d printer they came out last year I don’t know we got the TiVo tornado now I think the CR 10 was just killing everybody and then a bunch of clones came out of the shower time like that Ian at E 12 a 90/10 the Tron see whatever X 3 or whatever X 5 or whatever it’s called but then this printer came out and they’re like you know they got all the same design same size but they did some changes and I really really really like what they did here they added a AC heating module for the bed so the bed can literally heat up in minutes – like ABS temperatures this printer isn’t the best of printing abs if you enclose it it is but I’ve had some problems I can print ABS on it but sometimes the parts will warp especially if it’s a big print if it’s a small print it’s usually okay but yeah just cuz it’s so big also – if you have it in a hot room that’ll help but this printer is just awesome I love this TiVo Titan extruder this is by far my favorite extruder and they sent a dexter one I haven’t had to use it but it’s all very similar to the CR ten one thing I don’t like about is it does not come with a spool holder so it comes with like an STL file or AG code so you can just print one but they they should have already had that printed for you but yeah I don’t know it just prints I can burn really fast on this notes – like the CR 10 I try not to get it above 60 millimeters a second this one I can easily print at like 70 sometimes 80 if it’s not that complex you know of a design but our sorry of a model but yeah it prints great great quality I’d say just as good quality as the CR 10 I did have some salmon skin effects I think on all the new models so if you’re by now you you won’t have that I think they’d use a different board now but I had to add some TL smoothers they were very cheap but I had to add them to the box so that’s why my control box is open here so maybe I can just show it to you I never put the screws back on but um yeah that’s what come on sorry trying to do this with one hand so those are the TL smothers so they’re very easy they just plug right in so I added those and it eliminated the salmon skin and yeah it just prints beautifully okay so we got two more two printers on the table here this one this one I really like this is the any cubic linear plus I just recently did a review on this it’s got this awesome auto bed level probe so you put this on it’s just a magnet this is it sticks right on whoops right there and then it probes you know but I’m gonna be like beep beep beep it does like 39 spots and then you know then you hit store on the member here it stores it in and then when you go to print it knows where everything is it works perfect and I love this build platform it does have a heated bed and this comes almost all the way assembled I also really like how this ball holder is just on the metal frame right there the power supply you know it’s nice and safe has the on/off switch yeah I just really really really like this one okay so next time we’re gonna go let’s move this one a little okay we got the robot Bonnie couple okay now let me tell you when I first got this printer I thought it was the bee’s knees I was like this thing is so friggin awesome you can print dot two different colors you can mix colors after having it for a month the thing doesn’t work anymore it still turns on and everything but it jams every time I try to print two colors I even changed this whole carriage this guy remodeled this saying he had the same problem but my problems didn’t really change I’m definitely gonna have to do some work on that I was gonna give that one away to my friend but I don’t even I gotta fix it before him and give it to him cuz I feel bad giving it to him so this printer it’s all metal construction everything it would compute to colors it was really cool but after a month it just crapped out on me and I cannot figure it out it’s in the nozzle it uses this a crazy giant giant nozzle you can see there’s a huge mess of stuff on there let me zoom in oh yeah it’s huge it’s like five hundred times the size of a regular nozzle so I need to know how you replace that I don’t know what the inside of the hot end is like they both feed in there in this fan on it is so loud I got if I was gonna keep that I would replace those fans yeah it printed great for like a month and then it just started clogging all the time I don’t know if he just they got buildup in there I was trying to you know I’ve taken good care of it I don’t really know but okay so these are all the printers I have in there I have one more printer that doesn’t fit it’s not that big I just didn’t have any more room on the table so let me go grab that and I’ll show you that and then we can wrap this up okay guys this is the zone star z5 and you have never seen this on my channel that is because I refused to review this one it was so bad it had so many problems right out the box that I didn’t review it and I just salvaged different parts that’s why not everything is here but it is basically absolutely horrendous I have never checked out any other zone star products but I do not want to this was a nightmare to put together it was supposed to be a fast assembly but that’s not even it there was two broken end stops off the box so I had replacement stuff so I replaced them then after replacing I might notice the why and stop the bed can go so far back that it will be printing in midair like you won’t even you know I mean like it’ll be way off here so I had to mod it to pull it forward and it still didn’t work okay so then after I finally got everything set up I replaced it with a bunch of my own parts I turned it on and then it blew a thermistor and I’m like what the heck like right away so I replaced that then it blew another thermistor and then I just said you know what I’m done with this thing this thing is a piece of garbage I replaced four parts had to mod one and it in like okay and then this spooled or you can’t even fit a normal spool of film and I look how then this is like it you cannot put a spool of filament on there so I don’t even know what the point of having that is but yeah it was just terrible we had Auto level sensor so I thought that was cool but I never even got to use it I literally did not I I played with this thing for two days never even got one print off of it so just so you guys know if I get anything I recommend it’s because I recommend it if I don’t like something I’d rather just not even make the review then make a video trashing it so just so you know don’t you know if I say something’s good I’m not lying you guys I will not redo a review on something I do not like so this has been all my printers so let’s go inside I’ll give you a little conclusion of what I think and yeah okay guys so in conclusion which ones these are my favorite which ones I like the best okay so as far as partition style printers go my favourite smaller one is actually the any cubic ie three mega this is probably my most used on the joint it’s filled with just dirty as hell I use it all the time and you can print basically every type of material if anything goes wrong any cubics got great customer service but yeah sometimes it’s just not big enough for the job so sometimes I need something like my CHF back there or my JJ or or a five so the ginger I’ve only had this for like a month the CR ten I’ve had much longer Sanatana can honestly say is super reliable they have the best community ever then more people have the CR ken basically than any other printer so if one thing that really matters to you is being able to get support ask people for help if you’re totally new the CR ten is great the regulars here ten is pretty cheap it’s it’s well not cheap but it’s not as expensive as this one this one’s like 450 he’s still 300 to 350 or so for the regular one but honestly if you’re not gonna be printing huge all the time and you only have that much s but I would get the JJ Aurora because the JJ Aurora is on sale right now for only 319 and you can go almost as big as that and print every material and I honestly like this build platform better doesn’t have as big of a community behind it but I haven’t had to do anything like I literally have not done a single modification since I got this um CR ten though I see you cannot go wrong you lizard these are two of my favorite printers ever but the teamwork tornado also like all three of these are so close the team Oh tornado though I can turn it on and it’s all ready to go boom just like that the Tibor tornado if you get the newer one which if you ordered now yeah if you’re good don’t get one used um I would recommend getting one of the new ones I’ve gearbest if you’re gonna get one because you just affect the bedsheets up so fast and everything is so awesome Tibo also has great customer service they’re one of the only printers that comes with an actual instruction booklet this one’s also quite cheap right now it’s just a little over three hundred they take 325 or 350 of the most but it’s really cheap like when this first came out it was it was more than that as far as Delta printers go I’m gonna say anything from any cubic any cubic kills it if you don’t know how to money for the castle linear plus over there just get the regular castle I did a review on that too it in the past I gave that one to my brother but that printer is awesome and both any cubic they like no matter what you get they have awesome customer service the regular Castle much cheaper this one can do bigger stuff it can do more stuff it’s got a better power supply it can do different types of materials like abs and stuff where your regular one doesn’t have a heated bed and you can’t so if you’re only one we’ve got a budget you like building stuff I get the regular any cubic Castle but if you got extra money definitely get the lay meter plus back here we got the team of Michelangelo that think’s pretty nice but we got I’ve heard that the end or two it has heated bed so I think I’d rather get that but if you’re on a budget that one’s a little cheaper telling like 109 dollars but yeah overall I think your best bets are if you want something smaller get the any cubic I drew mega if you want something bigger and you got the money to spend and you don’t care about printing abs and stuff get the CR ten because having that big community really helps it means a lot but if you want to print all different materials get the JJ Aurora or the T book tornado hey JJ Turner though I have had more success printing abs and stuff the T Bo you can do it but it can be a little finicky so this is probably my sleeper I did not when I got this printer I didn’t know what to think of it and I’ve been blown away by this touchscreen too as well as the i3 is just killer but I love how this is all color and it just looks cool so yeah I could recommend any of these except the Thor BOTS and the zone star z5 don’t get either of those but any of these these are all good printers I’ll put links to all of them but yeah these are like my four favorite is boom boom boom boom and boom so thank you guys for watching I’ll see you later

Easy Belt-Tension Adjustment: our proprietary lift-block design allows for timing belt tensions to be conveniently adjustable through the lift-block itself, allowing for high quality prints, always
Thermally-Isolated Printhead: nozzle blockage and problems caused by overhang and bridging have been minimized, while print quality has been maximized
Designed to merge into any environment without disrupting your aesthetics and workflow
Pros
light weight (10 kg),
expansive build volume (250φ mm x 200 mm),
efficient cooling system (for overall better quality prints),
preconfigured slicer software so you can get started printing fast (Cura – CREATABLE Edition),
simple user interface consisting of one control wheel for all printer actions,
OLED strips that glow different colors depending on the current state of the printer (Blue – Idle, Green – Currently Printing, Red – Heating), and
an extensive list of compatible printing materials (including ABS, PLA, Glow, Conductive, Color Change, Metallic, Woody, Magnetic, and Silk-like Filaments)
Verdict
Printed several of my own designs and designs I found online with this printer and I must say that I am quite pleased. It worked pretty well out of the box and required some leveling adjustments about a month later (what else is new). The magnetic joints are a nice touch, making the printhead much easier to maintain when the nozzle gets blocked. I Have had the unit for months now. The prints are great, the look much better than what I have seen examples of other units.

Pros
Born from the drive for absolute quality, the Pro2 Plus refines 3D printing for production grade environments. Upgrading and evolving traditional manufacturing.
Verdict
I have paid twice as much money for dedicated vase mode printers to print artificial limb sockets and protective covers that I spent for my Pro 2 plus. I liked it well enough that I bought the smaller version Pro 2 also. I had to make my own 2 mm nozzles, but I’m able to print in vase mode using PETG by programming 309°C in my slicing software. The plastic is moving so fast through the nozzle that this averages 245°C which is perfect. Most printers won’t allow you to print this hot so I’m grateful for this feature. I was afraid that the smaller stepper motors might be an issue but they are truly beasts and they handle these tasks with ease. I love the fact that I can print 2.5 mm wide and .45 mm high which gives me extreme speed for this type of printing. I also love the fact that with 2 nozzles I can go from vase mode to find detailed printing. The touchscreen operation is great. The printer is so quiet you can barely hear it printing. Print interruption recovery is wonderful and I’ve never had that feature on a 3-D printer. Network and Web Cam server capabilities are also features that I will never do without again. The removable bedplate is great because I need to print on the aluminum surface on the back for beads as widest 2.5 mm. I use a spray contact cement on this side for bonding. These heavy beads tend to stick too hard to the printing surface on the opposite side which is the default bed. And while I’m on the subject of this default surface, it is fantastic. I use no glue whatsoever when printing for fine resolution on the side. This printer is truly a work of art. I haven’t experienced any of the problems that I’ve seen other reviews on. Good job Raised 3D!

Performance and Use 
Pros
Verdict
Whats up all, so today I was really excited because I’m gonna go through and take ten of my 3d printers compare them all tell you which ones I liked which was I don’t like what I like about them what the differences are what might suit your needs and yeah we’re just gonna go through all them so I currently have ten FDM printers and one DLP resin printer so I’m gonna go through all the FDM printers today and there’s a huge 3-d printer sale going on in gearbest so if you want to check out any of these there’ll be a link in the description where you can check out each one I’ll also put just a link to their overall sale page and yeah basically all the 3d printers are on sale right now so if you’re you know trying to figure out which one to buy this might be a good video for you so let’s go inside cuz I didn’t have enough room out here and I got all the 3d printers on the table and let’s go check it out okay guys so check it out I got nine different printers here let me get a higher angle so you can maybe see this better um let’s start off let me just go through and tell you what I got here on the table let’s start here this is a CR 10 s I got an a net a for Delta an FL Sun Delta in the back there I got a TiVo Michaelangelo jg r or a 5 any cubic I three mega TiVo tornado Thor bot buddy couple dual extrusion printer and the any cubic linear plus Delta okay so we’ll start it back here at the CR 10 and we’ll just work our way to the left here now this is the CR 10s I previously had the regular CR 10 and I gave that to my dad for Christmas I’ve also had several clones of the CR 10 like you know like the team or trader over there but I’ve had the trunk see what is it the x3 I think it’s called I also had the a net e 10 and the a net e 12 both of them I don’t currently have but they’re all very good machines but the CR 10 out of all the this and the TiVo definitely do it the best that’s why I kept this one the regular CR 10 is great especially if you’re trying to save a little money you do get extra features on this one so the extra features you get with the S model is you get a filament run-out sensor you get a power resume so like if I accidentally unplug it or if after that you know if the power goes out or something I can just restart it also too we get dual z-axis work threaded rods and motors so it’s a little more stable but it basically the print quality is basically the same you get very very very good print quality on the CR 10 and how I’m gonna say how good everything prints is I’m gonna compare it to the C okay I feel like the CR 10 right now is kind of like the benchmark so this is something I printed on the CRC our 10 its Yoda benches and pretty cool he’s like Yoda group Benji yeah really really bizarre well you know I said printed printing this really good I didn’t do any clean up after like it’s still a little you know burrs on it and stuff cuz I haven’t ripped off the brim either this literally got done printing 10 minutes ago before I started reporting all the printers on the table okay so the things that logo out the CR 10 first off it can print huge it’s got you know a huge build volume it prints great quality obviously things I don’t like though is you can’t really print abs unless you mod it there the bed does not like to get hot enough and the extruder can but the bed just does not really get over like 70 degrees it’s quite hard to get it over 70 degrees but and I also don’t like how it takes up so much room on the table but that’s good is it you know it’s a big printer so I guess it’s kind of a trade-off but it is very good it’s very stable you don’t really have to do any tweaks once you get it up and running good you just keep it the same like I haven’t had to have retighten the belts I haven’t you basically just level the bed if you move the printer if you don’t move it it doesn’t really go out of whack okay so this one though is like 450 ish with the sale price so it is a little pricier but you’re getting probably the biggest community to behind the printer okay so let’s move onto the next one okay so next we got the a net a for Delta okay now this one comes almost all the way assembled I think it took me a little over an hour and I’ve done reviews on all these if you want to look further into them but this printer I really like it actually it printed really good right out of the box here’s something I printed on it I mean not perfect but not bad and yeah I mean I like how the spool holder too is just like right on top that’s already good to go um I was I’m normally not the biggest fan of a net but I like this one I like this more than the a nut e 12 and the a nut e 10 both of which I’ve had in the past but I don’t have currently um I do not like how it’s just these push buttons oh I prefer the the old knob and stuff like most the printers have but other than that it’s actually surprisingly good quality it’s got belt tensioners already on it you don’t have to print off any parts basically it basically done no modifications to it and it’s printing pretty decent okay next we got another Delta in the back here this one is cheaper it’s definitely way harder to make like this one took me maybe 10 to 12 hours to put together but there is some cool features on this like it has bring this up a bit bear with me here I need to stuff around okay it has an auto level so like you can hear that click so it probes the bed and you know the auto levels you just type in g29 to the start code and based on that is really nice because it’s a very cheap printer that you don’t have I think it’s like a hundred and seventy bucks normally or with sale or whatever that’s very cheap printer there’s also some pretty high quality parks like all these plastic parts are all injection molded there’s not really any printed parts on it I I added a heated bed so it did not come with a heated bed they do also sell a heated bed version but stock one does not that one is a kind of a pain to put together but other than that that’s a pretty good printer it’s got pretty good quality on a bed level so it was a plus the wire management is a little crazy like the wires are just like hanging everywhere which I don’t like but other than that you can’t really not get the prints really good next we got this one here this is the jg Aurora a5 now this is one of my new favorite printers I’ve only had this not that long but man I think I like this maybe more doesn’t see our time honestly it prints just as good the quality except this one I can print ABS I can print nylon and I for any high temp material it prints great it got basically this is basically like the same thing as the any cubic ultrabass like you see here on the i3 mega mom so it you know you don’t have to put any adhesive on there or anything um I do think this printer is awesome because unlike the CR 10 how I got the control box to the side and everything everything’s right in here it’s just one solid printer like you could just you could like literally pick it up while it’s printing and it wouldn’t really affect the print now let me show you one of the coolest things about this only turned on okay so you’ll notice a little loud just that one fan but you’ll notice it’s full colored touchscreen I think like literally everything like all printers should have this um I think you know just your standard Marlin you know turn knob just the blue screen it’s really getting old I think it’s 21st century everything should use this this also just like the CR 10 it’s got you can auto resume for after power loss it’s got a filament run-out sensor over here and then I love how like the filaments tucked away like from the front you can’t even see it I’ll also to like I like how it’s all like you know from the back you can’t really you can see it but you can I got a big mess of ABS that got stuck on a film print and I didn’t fix it so ignore that but I like how like you can’t really see the nozzle and everything um this printer though this is probably the best deal in 3d printer right now cuz I think now it’s on sale for like 319 or something and it’s based you’re basically giving a CR 10 that can print ABS the build volume in the z-axis isn’t as high it’s 100 millimeters shorter so you won’t be able print as high stuff but it’s just as big on the X and the y so it’s like 305 by 305 by 300 I think so that’s pretty big okay now one printer that is very similar to this one sorry this is very dirty it was a my garage and it got really dirty I have been using this on a lot those is one of my most used printer this is my any cubic I three mega now this printer it’s it’s honestly it’s like a smaller one of these I think this one came out first I’m not quite sure but basically both these printers you can put them together in five minutes so that is just hands-down freaking awesome but besides that the any cubic I three mega also has the touchscreen the colors aren’t as vivid as the touchscreen on there and also has the filament run-out sensor power on/off and everything I can also print ABS and all those different materials also has this awesome ultra base yeah I think this printer if you don’t need a big printer it’s like what is still pretty big it’s bigger than like your standard like a net eight or a six or anything but if you don’t need like a giant printer this might be the printer to get and I’ve personally dealt with any cubic two different times and both times they were like the best customer service ever so my ultra base my first time I got it came messed up they sent me a brand new or no-questions-asked had it shipped out that day so that is pretty awesome I mean now let’s go here to the back and we got the TiVo michelangelo’s a small little little printer it’s also a very cheap printer one thing about it is it comes basically a 100 percent of samples like you don’t have to do anything you just plug it in it prints actually quite well the only downside is there’s no heated bed I heard they are remodeling it with a heated bed I don’t know if that’s gonna up the price because this printer is just over a hundred dollars if you want something small that doesn’t take up a lot of space and just want it really easy to set up foam your newb this might be a printer for you it doesn’t have a huge build volume but it’s big enough to print you know you’re just you’re right unless you’re not printing something like a face you know you’re gonna be okay I mean it’s still pretty decent-sized it’s just nothing crazy okay next we got maybe the best 3d printer they came out last year I don’t know we got the TiVo tornado now I think the CR 10 was just killing everybody and then a bunch of clones came out of the shower time like that Ian at E 12 a 90/10 the Tron see whatever X 3 or whatever X 5 or whatever it’s called but then this printer came out and they’re like you know they got all the same design same size but they did some changes and I really really really like what they did here they added a AC heating module for the bed so the bed can literally heat up in minutes – like ABS temperatures this printer isn’t the best of printing abs if you enclose it it is but I’ve had some problems I can print ABS on it but sometimes the parts will warp especially if it’s a big print if it’s a small print it’s usually okay but yeah just cuz it’s so big also – if you have it in a hot room that’ll help but this printer is just awesome I love this TiVo Titan extruder this is by far my favorite extruder and they sent a dexter one I haven’t had to use it but it’s all very similar to the CR ten one thing I don’t like about is it does not come with a spool holder so it comes with like an STL file or AG code so you can just print one but they they should have already had that printed for you but yeah I don’t know it just prints I can burn really fast on this notes – like the CR 10 I try not to get it above 60 millimeters a second this one I can easily print at like 70 sometimes 80 if it’s not that complex you know of a design but our sorry of a model but yeah it prints great great quality I’d say just as good quality as the CR 10 I did have some salmon skin effects I think on all the new models so if you’re by now you you won’t have that I think they’d use a different board now but I had to add some TL smoothers they were very cheap but I had to add them to the box so that’s why my control box is open here so maybe I can just show it to you I never put the screws back on but um yeah that’s what come on sorry trying to do this with one hand so those are the TL smothers so they’re very easy they just plug right in so I added those and it eliminated the salmon skin and yeah it just prints beautifully okay so we got two more two printers on the table here this one this one I really like this is the any cubic linear plus I just recently did a review on this it’s got this awesome auto bed level probe so you put this on it’s just a magnet this is it sticks right on whoops right there and then it probes you know but I’m gonna be like beep beep beep it does like 39 spots and then you know then you hit store on the member here it stores it in and then when you go to print it knows where everything is it works perfect and I love this build platform it does have a heated bed and this comes almost all the way assembled I also really like how this ball holder is just on the metal frame right there the power supply you know it’s nice and safe has the on/off switch yeah I just really really really like this one okay so next time we’re gonna go let’s move this one a little okay we got the robot Bonnie couple okay now let me tell you when I first got this printer I thought it was the bee’s knees I was like this thing is so friggin awesome you can print dot two different colors you can mix colors after having it for a month the thing doesn’t work anymore it still turns on and everything but it jams every time I try to print two colors I even changed this whole carriage this guy remodeled this saying he had the same problem but my problems didn’t really change I’m definitely gonna have to do some work on that I was gonna give that one away to my friend but I don’t even I gotta fix it before him and give it to him cuz I feel bad giving it to him so this printer it’s all metal construction everything it would compute to colors it was really cool but after a month it just crapped out on me and I cannot figure it out it’s in the nozzle it uses this a crazy giant giant nozzle you can see there’s a huge mess of stuff on there let me zoom in oh yeah it’s huge it’s like five hundred times the size of a regular nozzle so I need to know how you replace that I don’t know what the inside of the hot end is like they both feed in there in this fan on it is so loud I got if I was gonna keep that I would replace those fans yeah it printed great for like a month and then it just started clogging all the time I don’t know if he just they got buildup in there I was trying to you know I’ve taken good care of it I don’t really know but okay so these are all the printers I have in there I have one more printer that doesn’t fit it’s not that big I just didn’t have any more room on the table so let me go grab that and I’ll show you that and then we can wrap this up okay guys this is the zone star z5 and you have never seen this on my channel that is because I refused to review this one it was so bad it had so many problems right out the box that I didn’t review it and I just salvaged different parts that’s why not everything is here but it is basically absolutely horrendous I have never checked out any other zone star products but I do not want to this was a nightmare to put together it was supposed to be a fast assembly but that’s not even it there was two broken end stops off the box so I had replacement stuff so I replaced them then after replacing I might notice the why and stop the bed can go so far back that it will be printing in midair like you won’t even you know I mean like it’ll be way off here so I had to mod it to pull it forward and it still didn’t work okay so then after I finally got everything set up I replaced it with a bunch of my own parts I turned it on and then it blew a thermistor and I’m like what the heck like right away so I replaced that then it blew another thermistor and then I just said you know what I’m done with this thing this thing is a piece of garbage I replaced four parts had to mod one and it in like okay and then this spooled or you can’t even fit a normal spool of film and I look how then this is like it you cannot put a spool of filament on there so I don’t even know what the point of having that is but yeah it was just terrible we had Auto level sensor so I thought that was cool but I never even got to use it I literally did not I I played with this thing for two days never even got one print off of it so just so you guys know if I get anything I recommend it’s because I recommend it if I don’t like something I’d rather just not even make the review then make a video trashing it so just so you know don’t you know if I say something’s good I’m not lying you guys I will not redo a review on something I do not like so this has been all my printers so let’s go inside I’ll give you a little conclusion of what I think and yeah okay guys so in conclusion which ones these are my favorite which ones I like the best okay so as far as partition style printers go my favourite smaller one is actually the any cubic ie three mega this is probably my most used on the joint it’s filled with just dirty as hell I use it all the time and you can print basically every type of material if anything goes wrong any cubics got great customer service but yeah sometimes it’s just not big enough for the job so sometimes I need something like my CHF back there or my JJ or or a five so the ginger I’ve only had this for like a month the CR ten I’ve had much longer Sanatana can honestly say is super reliable they have the best community ever then more people have the CR ken basically than any other printer so if one thing that really matters to you is being able to get support ask people for help if you’re totally new the CR ten is great the regulars here ten is pretty cheap it’s it’s well not cheap but it’s not as expensive as this one this one’s like 450 he’s still 300 to 350 or so for the regular one but honestly if you’re not gonna be printing huge all the time and you only have that much s but I would get the JJ Aurora because the JJ Aurora is on sale right now for only 319 and you can go almost as big as that and print every material and I honestly like this build platform better doesn’t have as big of a community behind it but I haven’t had to do anything like I literally have not done a single modification since I got this um CR ten though I see you cannot go wrong you lizard these are two of my favorite printers ever but the teamwork tornado also like all three of these are so close the team Oh tornado though I can turn it on and it’s all ready to go boom just like that the Tibor tornado if you get the newer one which if you ordered now yeah if you’re good don’t get one used um I would recommend getting one of the new ones I’ve gearbest if you’re gonna get one because you just affect the bedsheets up so fast and everything is so awesome Tibo also has great customer service they’re one of the only printers that comes with an actual instruction booklet this one’s also quite cheap right now it’s just a little over three hundred they take 325 or 350 of the most but it’s really cheap like when this first came out it was it was more than that as far as Delta printers go I’m gonna say anything from any cubic any cubic kills it if you don’t know how to money for the castle linear plus over there just get the regular castle I did a review on that too it in the past I gave that one to my brother but that printer is awesome and both any cubic they like no matter what you get they have awesome customer service the regular Castle much cheaper this one can do bigger stuff it can do more stuff it’s got a better power supply it can do different types of materials like abs and stuff where your regular one doesn’t have a heated bed and you can’t so if you’re only one we’ve got a budget you like building stuff I get the regular any cubic Castle but if you got extra money definitely get the lay meter plus back here we got the team of Michelangelo that think’s pretty nice but we got I’ve heard that the end or two it has heated bed so I think I’d rather get that but if you’re on a budget that one’s a little cheaper telling like 109 dollars but yeah overall I think your best bets are if you want something smaller get the any cubic I drew mega if you want something bigger and you got the money to spend and you don’t care about printing abs and stuff get the CR ten because having that big community really helps it means a lot but if you want to print all different materials get the JJ Aurora or the T book tornado hey JJ Turner though I have had more success printing abs and stuff the T Bo you can do it but it can be a little finicky so this is probably my sleeper I did not when I got this printer I didn’t know what to think of it and I’ve been blown away by this touchscreen too as well as the i3 is just killer but I love how this is all color and it just looks cool so yeah I could recommend any of these except the Thor BOTS and the zone star z5 don’t get either of those but any of these these are all good printers I’ll put links to all of them but yeah these are like my four favorite is boom boom boom boom and boom so thank you guys for watching I’ll see you later
