Prusa Research’s DIY assembly kits for its new Core One 3D printer are now available for purchase.

Priced at $949 and currently estimated to begin shipping in March, the Core One is a fully enclosed, CoreXY machine with a 250 x 220 x 270 mm build volume. All told, it looks to be a marked upgrade from the MK4S, despite using many of the same parts.

Owners of the MK4S need not worry, however: an upgrade path, in the form of a $449 kit, is also available. Converting the MK4S to a Core One requires quite a bit of disassembly and reassembly – it is, after all, a full kinematic conversion – but Prusa says the result is a machine that is smaller in body, bigger in build volume, and faster to boot.

Our first impressions of the pre-assembled Core One so far reflect that claim – and are highly positive all-around, although expect a bit of a wait until we’re ready to post a full review.

The Core One kit’s release should be pleasant news to many users. Our recent poll, for example, revealed that 35% of respondents interested in purchasing a Core One were holding out until kits were available. Well, folks, now that day has come.

For more, be sure to check out the Core One kit’s product page on Prusa’s website, where you can find full specs and make a purchase.
