Bcn3d sigma, ultimaker 2+ extended, zortrax m200, mankati full scale xt and one or two others. We spent 90 days looking through specs. The fusion is the 12th printer to be bought or built here including prusas, flash forge, Rostock. Right now I’m debating the markforged or another f400.

I got a proposal from chip and the printer is 8 weeks out. Ouch. Might need to consider a different printer.
It’s worth the wait… just my two cents. 
Agreed. Mine was a preorder and more than 8 weeks. I’m glad I resisted the urge to cancel. Now that I have one I’d wait 3 months for another one.
The fusion, unlike most printers out there, is designed for small businesses. I’ve never run a print for anyone who owns a fusion. As for almost every other model of printer out there (especially makerbot) I’ve run prints due to quality issues, maintenance issues or deadlines for people who own or have access to a 3d printer.
It’s around the bottom of the layer fan. At high speeds I had issues with the fan shroud vibrating more than I’m comfortable with. I’ve never owned a printer that I didn’t make some modifications to. The fusion is no exception. I also out a 120cfm fan on the extruder drive motor. (Way overkill) to prevent jams when using low temp PLA at high speeds.

That’s what I was hoping. I know their manual discourages it, but I figured with the v6 that it should be possible.
