Wanhao duplicator i3 plus or folgertech ft 5? I see benefits to both, just wondering if anyone has pros or cons to either. Thanks for any help. This will be for my Digital Graphics and Animation classroom, so the kids can get some real world experience. Have to keep it affordable, since I’m buying it myself.

Personally I would lean towards the i3 over the F5, primarily because the F5 was just released. While it looks interesting, I would give it a few months for FolgerTech to work out the kinks and iron-out packaging issues they seem to have with each new release. Avoid the early adopters tax.
