Build Guide
The ultimate printer I can recommend is the Bamboo Labs X1 carbon with AMS if you have deep pockets. ($1200). It's a massive leap forward in 3D printing, with excellent quality and impressive speeds. Its pretty much press print and go as the software and hardware do the calibration before each print. This printer will not manage the larger parts and you are going to need the CREALITY CR10 v3, which is my second choice of printer.

This design is a remake of the Landing Gear Unit. It's now fully enclosed to stop any light bleeding through the open lever hole. I have updated the design to make it simpler and better. The Handle or the trigger can be used to operate the unit.
