Bought it cheap (about $200), and working (fast)

Was it a kit?

Nice buy!

Is it direct drive or bowden?

what is this?

Looks like there is a disconnected bowden tube?

It’s a kit, with not too sturdy acrylic frame, a melzi board with “problematic” ftdi chip (works with 2.10 release of ftdi driver), but when I got it working, not so bad, I got 6days 2hours 30mins of print time on it (better than my other more expensive printer) the extruder is a direct drive more like an MK7(with an often stuck nozzle throat, ptfe tube related), it’s quite stable at 9400mm/min, or 156.66mm/s, higher speeds requires bigger nozzle and more tweaking, I would recommend using threadlock for the bolts, and a rigid (springless) for aluminium heatbed with autobed level, and or “really” flat bed calibration
