I have the Centauri Carbon and in my opinion it is definitely worth what I paid for it, and there have also been some recent sales on it you might can find. The OpenCentauri group in discord just released an open source firmware for it like last week and it’s flawless and took maybe 5 minutes to set up. Plus AMS is coming later this year or early next year if that matters to you, but also if you print the vented riser for it then it is very good for printing Nylons and PETG and anything else you want a warmer chamber temp for, plus more upgrades for it are coming soon now that it’s open sourced, and I’m hoping an easy chamber heater is one of them for added ease.

That is so fucking badass dude

In my state from what I understand, this would be an SBR and I’d have to pay a $200 tax stamp. Is a 16” barrel feasible on this build?

[–] r3db3ard 1 points 1 month ago (3 children)

That looks great! What length barrel did you use?

I’ve looked into that and it looks fantastic, but I know the Decker 9 is coming soon and I wasn’t sure if I should wait and do the 9 or go ahead and do the 380

 

Hey guys, so far I’ve built a few Harlots, a Gambino, and a Hitchhiker. I had a blast with all of them. What should I do next? I’m wanting to stay under $200 if I can. Open to any recommendations!

That looks like it’d make one painful butt plug

So I used super glue as well, but I squeezed it out on a paper towel and then rolled the fiber optic on its sides to ensure no glue covered either end so light passes through easily

That is also very true!

I also had problems with the original folding grip. It seemed too loose for me and if I tightened it any more it’d crack and I’d have to reprint. The “Wet Noodle” grip is fantastic and I love the texturing

Hitchhiker Completed Build + Tips (forum.guncadindex.com)

Hey guys! I'm extremely thrilled to show off my latest build. This is the Hitchhiker designed by Matthew Larosiere and released by thegatalog.com. This was done in Polymaker PLA Pro on my Elegoo Centauri Carbon, except for the red dot sight and the AR grip which were both done in ESUN Pla+. I assembled this using the MAF parts kit which was arrived very quickly and was very high quality and an amazing experience.

Here is a list of other things I have printed that differ from the original design.

  1. HitchHiker Three Shot Stock - https://guncadindex.com/detail/HitchHiker_3_shot_stock:6

  2. Pick Rail Barrel and Plain Optic from HitchHiker Sights and Barrel Pack - https://guncadindex.com/detail/optic-and-barrel-pack:4

  3. Wet Noodle AR Grip - https://guncadindex.com/detail/Wet-Noodle-AR-Grip:7

  4. Reddot At Home - https://guncadindex.com/detail/Reddot-At-Home:9

This was an extremely budget-friendly build that was not too complex for a beginner. If you are looking for a good build to get into after building a Harlot or a Cabfare/Gambino, then this is definitely the one I would recommend.

Either are fine, but I suppose the sea that way other people can also benefit!
