Prusa3D Core One assembled from kit ( https://www.prusa3d.com/product/prusa-core-one-kit/ ) in roughly 36 hours, including 5 hours of sleep and frequent toddler-herding

Quite fun and satisfying

I did make a few mistakes, but wholly my own, and avoidable by reading the actual instructions

Benchy test print (15 minutes) is complete, so I guess I can start planning holiday show-bag gifts for nieces and nephews

    Howdy!

    In the Core One kit, the only pieces that are already assembled for you are things that would need soldering, e.g. electrical components like PCBs and motors

    Everything else is separate and needs to be screwed together carefully with the hundreds of different screws they provide :)

    It’s my first time assembling such a project, and my other issue is that I have a very curious toddler that was playing games with me and with the pieces when I wasn’t looking: I’m sure a much faster assembly time is possible with dedicated focus and not having to frequently stop a child from hurting themselves
