Colorfab XT and the Ender 3 S1 Pro

I am doing a review of the Ender 3 S1 Pro, which can print at up to 300c with the print bed easily holding a temperature of 100c. That makes it possible for me to use filaments I could only use on my Prusa MK3 which assembled sells for $1,000. I bought it as a kit for $750 and it took me about 5 hours, 5 difficult hours, to assemble it. The S1 Pro sells for $479 on the Creality website.

So far, it can handle everything the Prusa can handle.

I love printing with ColorFab XT but it requires a printer that can extrude at 240 to 260c and my best results are at 250. I tried it on my FLSUN Super Racer at 230 and the layers failed to stick together.

This very short video is the result of printing a model from CodeAndMake customized at models.makewithtech.com. (Just search for item 57174 by entering that number in the search box and clicking search.). I think the results speak for themselves.
