Scaled this guy up 270% to just about 12" tall. Printed each piece separately and took me a long time even on the X1C. Then it took some more time figuring out how to glue it together. Unfortunately it looks like the author removed it from thingiverse.
How is the x1c? It seemed like everyone loved this thing when it first came out and just wanted to see if it's still the case. I've been looking at one for a long time aswell as the prusa xl.
I do like the capabilities of the x1c as that's something my current printer doesn't really match, like the stupid speed and engineering filament capabilities.
My current printer is a custom that's mostly printed so can't do anything too fancy. I could alter it to try match but honestly I don't have the time.
I like it. I bought the X1C around Thanksgiving last year and then bought a P1P March of this year. My X1C has passed 3000 hrs now. Here's some discussion around that https://lemmy.world/post/688667. One downside is when I need a part, it takes a week to arrive.
I only print PLA so the P1P suits my needs. When I first bought it the P1P wasn't available yet otherwise I probably would've just gone with a P1P.
I've had mine for two months. Probably still the "honeymoon" phase, but coming from an Ender 3 Pro, it's night and day. I love it. Literally printing 15 minutes from opening the box.
It's wicked fast and for me, has needed zero tweaking / tuning.
