Where do I draw the line?

Or if I decide to go for the 300mm² variant I might look into something like the Ender V3 Plus. Yeah, after some thought over the last day or two I realised that the only scenario in which I would need such an expensive printer is if I was to make a steering wheel without a metal core. If I was to make something like this I'd need to use these high end materials that lower end printers can't handle. So if I was to only focus on "cored" wheels my only limitation becomes the print volume. And this is the one thing where I really wouldn't want to skimp out on. While I always could split these builds into few smaller pieces I'd like to skip the whole "aligning and gluing" process. So as of right now I'm set on getting something that has at the minimum a 310mm² build plate. I could squeeze by with a 300mm² but then some of the prints I had planed would have to be done at like 97% scale which probably wouldn't be noticable however I'd like to avoid it if possible. Currently doing research on the Elegoo Neptune 4 Plus and the Sovol SV08. Or if I decide to go for the 300mm² variant I might look into something like the Ender V3 Plus. Thanks for the advice tho. Appreciate you grounding my expectations and wishes a little bit 😁 I can get carried away from time to time

Ender 3 V3 is better than Bambu Lab A1 Unpopular Opinion in 3D printing

The creator bought this printer and, despite initial issues and design flaws like spool placement and Z-axis drops, found it to be a reliable printer with a massive build volume, outperforming the Bambu Lab A1 in some respects.

I have a 225 x 225 bed and want a larger one.

Just upgraded from a couple of original Ender 3's to an Elegoo CC and Creality Ender 3 V3 Plus for large format. Using basically stock Orca slicer profiles for each, the Elegoo produces a slightly better quality print with better joints on sliding and articulating parts. I haven't done any extruder tuning, though, so they may be nearly equal after that effort.
