Here is my first print. A slightly scaled up “roctopus” on highest setting using polylite PLA. Took about 2.5 hours. ![](http://i.imgur.com/hQZYMiY.jpg) ![](http://i.imgur.com/UImk41h.jpg) This is straight out of the box with no tweaking beyond the initial build and installing the software. Looked great so I jumped on Thingiverse and found something that looked really complicated… I downloaded the marble machine… loaded all 4 parts… set to highest setting and hit print. It is estimating 26 hours. ![](http://i.imgur.com/lhK1vKG.jpg) ![](http://i.imgur.com/zkrV5AZ.jpg) Thought it would be a good break-in test to see if it could handle such a long multi-part print. Looking great so far. I will post finished version when done. I wanted to give props to [itworks3d.com](http://itworks3d.com) for such a great refurbished printer and answering all my noob questions. 🙂 ---

FYI - Cura is a pretty bad judge of estimating time. I am 1 hour away fromy 26 hour time and this easily has another 10-15 hours in my judgement… 🙂 ![](http://i.imgur.com/2itn5Xk.jpg) ---

34 hours 18 minutes…phew. Not bad for 2nd ever print. Didn’t enjoy sleeping in the dining room for 2 nights to keep and eye on it… but worth it. I didn’t have the right size marbles so I printed them too with some orange filament. The marbles are 9.5mm circumference. 🙂 VIDEO: [https://vimeo.com/198590870](https://vimeo.com/198590870) PIC: ![](http://i.imgur.com/IMUOHDU.jpg)
