A Tale of Two Benchys

I ran two 3D Benchy models through the two printers just to evaluate the overall print quality of the the two printers and types of filaments. The following image shows the Benchy model printed in PLA on the CR-10S and in PETG on the Ender 3 with all metal hotend and direct drive conversion:

Overall, both prints came out very well. The PLA version displayed a bit more low level detail and resolution vs the PETG version. I thing this is more material related rather than printer related. Dimensionally no issues, nor issues with bridging or oozing (i.e. stringing). So far pretty happy with the results now.
