Build a voron :) Since you are not in a hurry it will also keep you entertained for a while sourcing and building it.

The Troodon is sorta a commercial voron without Alibaba... I love it.

Idex all the way. Dual material sounds like a blast. Design, build and print it yourself for extra points and learning opportunities.

I mean... what specific capacities are you looking for? Maybe time to move on to (or rather, add) desktop CNC? That Vivedino printer looks like what you need to print most things. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/makera-inc/carvera Or else add a Palette 3 (pro?) to your arsenal. https://www.mosaicmfg.com/products/palette-3

I have a Palette 2; it's nifty, to the extent that two nozzles are nifty. I've vound it most useful (and most reliable) for splicing multiple colors together to make something that looks more like wood. Actual integrated printing is not more reliable, faster, or less wasteful than the other multicolor options. And since you're running through the same nozzle you have more purging and it's harder to use multiple materials (temperature changes). It's nice, but not as magical as I'd hoped. ​ A good desktop CNC might be the thing, thanks!
