The Creality CR-10S is a nearly assembled printer that comes ready to print out of the box in about 30 minutes.  It works well with Cura slicer and has printed everything I have thrown at it.  Mine is on the move constantly.

*Required* 3D Printed Upgrades (IMHO)

To get the most out of this printer you are going to want to get printing your upgrades right away.   These all link to Thingiverse.com.

This brace system tightens up your Creality CR-10/S to prevent additional shaking.  Once installed, it is set and forget.  Well worth the effort, once installed, use a level and square it all up.  Printed in PLA, .4MM.  Don’t look back.
