can't vorons be bought prebuilt these days?
Sovol sv08 is basically a prebuilt voron
They aren't vorons then. There are printers, including some that I listed, that are very closer to this conceptually, but they aren't allowed to be called vorons (and you won't get an official serial number for them).
One core point of a voron is the fact that it's built, from scratch, by you. A pre-assembled printer can never be a Voron.
Note that anyone is free to use the parts and designs, that's the point of them being open-source. The Voron name is intentionally protected so you can't sell a commercial 3d printer product called Voron.
i mean, as long as you get the excellent functionality of a voron.
you won't get the prestige or the customization, but it'd be fine as a first printer i suppose.
