With $450 off the sticker price bringing the overall cost down to $199, this 3D printer deal ahead of Black Friday is silly. I mean, I feel as if there’s been a typo and that ‘1’ should be a ‘2.’
But hey, I shan’t complain. And if you’re hoping to get going with 3D printing, neither should you. As part of its Black Friday deals, industry giant Anycubic has slashed the price of its beginner-friendly Photon Mono 6KS to just$199 at Anycubic. Considering how its MSRP is $649, that’s one of the betterBlack Friday 3D printer dealsI’ve seen so far.
Based in the UK? You can get in on this offer as well. The manufacturer has dropped its Photon Mono 6Ks to£199 at Anycubicrather than £649. Phew. For anyone hoping to print off minis or terrain for thebest tabletop RPGs, it doesn’t get much better.
Should you buy the Anycubic Photon Mono 6Ks?
If you’re new to the 3D printing hobby, this makes for a great starting point. It’s not too complicated and it won’t take up loads of space (or dent your bank balancetoomuch), but it still pumps out miniatures at 6K resolution. Although that won’t hold up to more premium machines like theAnycubic Photon Mono M7 Pro, it’s still a very reasonable quality and more than enough if you’re just starting out. And for that price? It’s hard to gripe.
That isn’t to say this printer is without bells and whistles, though. Aside from the higher resolution than many other beginner machines I’ve seen, it has a laser-engraved build plate for better adhesion and model removal. The Photon Mono 6Ks is also packing Anycubic LightTurbo for a smoother and faster overall print.
Want something a little less messy, or keen to make terrain instead? I love using resin printers (particularly for high-detail models), but they can be more of a faff. If you want to avoid all that, check out an FDM machine like theAnycubic Kobra 3 Combo. It’s the perfect blend of user-friendly whilst being highly effective and accurate, so should be a good entry-point for newcomers. It’s able to print in multiple colors as well, which is a very neat bonus.
