My son has an Artillery X1. It has been a decent printer but it has some issues, for example they don't allow storing changes to the eeprom. One can jailbreak it and install a newer Marlin, but mostly people have moved on to the X2 or other printers, most X1 stuff I find is very old. We could move it to Klipper but I'm thinking that perhaps it is time to move him to a Voron, perhaps a V2.4 350. The X1 has a 300x300x400 build volume, very tall but how often does one really go that tall? Especially on a bed slinger, seems like acceleration would reduce print quality and the filament jerk on the tool head at the top of the gantry would be substantial. Anyway a Voron V2.4 350 would be interesting to build (and lots of exercise).
I bet he would be pretty stoked to get a Voron 2.4.
And getting to build one with your son is it's own reward.
