No comment

[stuck cobalt]

I was bored

[robust forum]

I'll accept that as answer

[robust forum]

discord won't play the videoo

[terse nymph]

Honestly the AMS Lite weighs almost nothing

You’re fine.

It might get fussy about orientation though

[stuck cobalt]

From a couple things I printed it seems fine

[waxen tartan]

bro.....

that brings me great pain

[stuck cobalt]

[stuck cobalt]

if it ever falls down ill update

[willow nymph]

There's literally zero reason to not mount this properly 😭

[manic dome]

you're already ruining your paint with all that tape why not just make a few holes

[willow nymph]

There's even a pivot version which is cool

[stuck cobalt]

i dont have screws

[velvet schooner]

Print them

Just kidding. Dont

[willow nymph]

You can but it's almost always a terrible idea

[terse nymph]

They’re too fine

That’s why I print bolts

my skyscraper hasn’t come crashing down ye

[stuck cobalt]

yeah but a ams is heavy

[oblique meadow]

Some hardware stores will just give you them for free if you only need a few

I’m late to the party but I’m scared by what I’ve seen

Even if they don’t it shouldn’t be more than a few bucks

[stuck cobalt]

If I really need some I’ll just ask theater for some

[willow nymph]

Brother by the time you really need them it'll be too late

You're risking damaging not only the AMS unit but your printer as well if it falls

[terse nymph]

Devils advocate I haven’t seen a broken AMS yet

And they’re pretty light

And it’s not dead yet

[waxen tartan]

Coming from Mr Jank himself

[stuck cobalt]

If I post this in the subreddit I would be flamed so hard

[willow nymph]

Rightfully so

[terse nymph]

Indeed

[stuck cobalt]

Is that a hard drive 😭

[terse nymph]

Yes.

The table leg was an inch too short

[stuck cobalt]

Whyyyyy

Use a book

[terse nymph]

No

You don’t hurt books

unless bad :p

[stuck cobalt]

Uhh

You don’t hurt hard drives

Unless bad :p

[velvet schooner]

https://makerworld.com/en/models/1008773-multimeter-probe-tweezer-adapter this is a good print

Takes 30 minutes and is great for making a cheap multimeter much more usable

[shrewd mist]

this seems extremely dangerous lol

[manic dome]

Why, it’s literally a multimeter

[velvet schooner]

It's just plastic to hold it in place?

[manic dome]

^^

[velvet schooner]

Any probe positions you can make with your hands can be made with this

[shrewd mist]

if that springs open in your hand and you cross two phases on 480

just checking voltage

[velvet schooner]

There's no spring

Or wait

You mean you just lose grip

[shrewd mist]

yeah not a spring fly ing out lol

[velvet schooner]

Idk id imagine most people are using multimeters for low voltage

High voltage you should be taking many more precautions

One hand measuring 100+ volts is wild

[shrewd mist]

you'd be surprised what people do lol

[shrewd mist]

lol like this guy

[manic dome]

Slight issue lmao

Imma deal with it tmr

Repaint the walls too

[terse nymph]

[stuck cobalt]

It ain’t gonna fall in 12 hours

I’ll take the filaments off just in case

[waxen tartan]

Oh you don't say hmmmmmmmmmm?

[stuck cobalt]

Yeahhhhh

Eh it lasted a while tho

I’m joking but there is light

[manic dome]

https://rxddit.com/r/BambuLab/comments/1jfs9r3/h2d_faq/

leaks of H2D, it will somehow have a laser engraver and 2 nozzles on a single extruder, bambu even put in their shop blank business/bank cards to engrave

it has 4 cameras

and a rumored 5500$ pricetag

[waxen tartan]

I'll take 2

[manic dome]

but it's weird because it's attacking the enterprise/prosumer market but it doesn't have an ethernet port

[waxen tartan]

Bambu be like that

[willow nymph]

Let's split it, sisterhood of the traveling printer style

[terse nymph]

No auto print eject??? shame

lol

but I do know of a fair few people that would go crazy for that

[willow nymph]

On a real note what printers offer this natively without modding?

Genuinely don't know

[terse nymph]

Nothing I know of

It’s just that Bambu are heavily used for print farms and people would go insane for that feature

[willow nymph]

For sure

I wish I had that feature and I only have 3 printers

[waxen tartan]

"only"

[willow nymph]

Did I stutter

[manic dome]

You can do it on the bambu, PEI self releases which means you can just push objects off

It’s just that it might not fully release when you have a lot of supports or if you have a very fragile model you know

[willow nymph]

Yeah but I mean like an apparatus that gets it off the bed ready to print another model

[waxen tartan]

He wants a rake

[waxen tartan]

they used the silicone isolators like on noctua fans

like honestly it's super cool

Prusa XL 1 and 2 extruder is cooked

and probably even the 5 tools depending on the usage, if it's for high temp stuff the H2D is 1000x better, if it's not least waste multi-material it still wins, but it's also almost 2x the price of the H2D

[velvet schooner]

Bambu W?

[manic dome]

yeah, huge bambu W

like this would be equal spec, enclosure, 2 extruders, fully assembled, same build area

you can almost buy 2 H2Ds for that price

[velvet schooner]

Wait it's dual nozzle

Sick

[manic dome]

dual nozzle single extruder

[manic dome]

it's also a laser if you didn't notice

chamber heating

it has an NPU !!

[waxen tartan]

@stuck cobalt is gonna have trouble taping the AMS2 pro to the wall

[stuck cobalt]

😭

I will do it if you buy me it

[willow nymph]

We will not tolerate this drywall cruelty 😭

[willow nymph]

Damn my next big boy purchase way down the line

[waxen tartan]

What's do you think the split for people buying the laser add ons will be

My guess is 80%+ don't bother with it

Maybe more like 90%

[manic dome]

what people don't see is how nasty laser cutting is

you'd need to clean it when switching from printing to laser

[waxen tartan]

Yep
A lot of people will buy the laser part, try it once or twice, then stick it in a drawer

[manic dome]

and you can buy a standalone laser cutter for very cheap

[waxen tartan]

Yeah that's why I don't understand why they did this?

[manic dome]

[waxen tartan]

Why not make a laser cutter if they want to break into that matket

[manic dome]

this is from their wiki

[waxen tartan]

Market*

[manic dome]

look at how nasty everything is

[waxen tartan]

I do see this being very popular for print farms

Not the laser upgrade

Just H2D and AMS2

[manic dome]

yeah

[velvet schooner]

Filament drying is nice

In the ams

[manic dome]

AMS HT is also 150€ and consumes 150W average

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/984597879001870437/1354113755138621440/20250324-205211_1600x1600.webp?ex=67e41c35&is=67e2cab5&hm=5ecbe7601222c591fdf0883d8d56508221068f86feeb2e1103a50170d36cb302&

this is to give a sense of scale

[waxen tartan]

This will enable certain engineering plastics?

[manic dome]

its frigging huge

[manic dome]

yeah, some plastics need to be constantly dried, and i presume the heating is to avoid any big change in temp from the AMS to the chamber

[waxen tartan]

I do wonder, what if Bambu just made an A1 XL or P1 XL

[terse nymph]

That’s gonna sell FAST

[terse nymph]

1899 is wild

X1C is like 1449

That’s crazy

I expected 3k

[waxen tartan]

i thought it was 999

[terse nymph]

Wowie

Usually somewhere around there

But sometimes 1400ish and sometimes 1200ish

P1 combo is around 800-1000

[terse nymph]

P1 non combo can be had for 550

[waxen tartan]

AMS 2 Pro implies the existance of a non pro AMS 2

[stuck cobalt]

Instead of 4 slots it would be 3/j

[terse nymph]

I’m guessing just like AMS1 but improved for more time between failures and and better general quality

[manic dome]

Yeah it’s really a very VERY good deal for a machine this big with this many features, it has bloody 4 cameras and an NPU

It’s gonna be sold out for a long time

[terse nymph]

Truly insane

Can’t wait to see it on demo doing its thing

Also dual nozzle at the full 600mm/s

C r a z y

I really really wanna see that printer in action

The price is aimed directly at mid-level print farms / enthusiasts / small business

[manic dome]

And to completely undercut the prusa XL too

I think 9/10 people will go for the bambu, only die hard prusa fans will go for the XL

I mean even the 5 TH prusa XL doesn’t come with A SINGLE CAMERA, IT’S A 5K PRINTER

you save 5 bucks for unknown quality

why

[stuck cobalt]

plus shipping

[velvet schooner]

for unknown quality

[stuck cobalt]

hmm

[waxen tartan]

For hot end parts I'd probably stick to first party

But it is also probably fine

[stuck cobalt]

reading the reviews it seems fine

but idk

[waxen tartan]

It's $5 cheaper?

Vs free shipping from Bambu over $50?

[stuck cobalt]

ouch expensive

[waxen tartan]

I want it

[stuck cobalt]

i wonder if i can build a ams ht with spare parts

Boooop

[stuck cobalt]

yes i will print the abs with a fan outside

im not stupid

mostly

[waxen tartan]

As in put the printer outside?

[stuck cobalt]

yes

or i could just open a window plus have a fan

[velvet schooner]

doesnt abs need a warm enclosure'

[stuck cobalt]

uhhhhh

who knows

ill leave it inside

but like closes the door

and makes sure fumes dont escape

[velvet schooner]

its not a good idea

the a1 mini has no active cooling

you cant enclose it to get ABS temps

[stuck cobalt]

uhh

ill try

[velvet schooner]

your build plate also doesnt get hot enough

no you are going to break something

the a1 series specifically cannot be enclosed you will cook the internals

[stuck cobalt]

well

hmm

fuck

[velvet schooner]

i originally wanted an enclosure too at some point but it wasnt worht it

[waxen tartan]

Even abs on p1s is a bit questionable

What do y’all use to design stuff? I want to do functional prints but can’t afford to get fusion, but it’s the software I know

AutoCAD? I think my friend uses that for the stuff he does for his job

[robust forum]

fusion360

[terse nymph]

I love fusion- too expensive

[robust forum]

just get the free version

the personal use one, not comercial

[velvet schooner]

Yeah i was gonna say

[terse nymph]

I mean I can try but it didn’t work last time

[robust forum]

wdym

[terse nymph]

Probable skill issue

couldn’t get the download

[velvet schooner]

Autodesk Fusion for personal use is a limited, free version that includes basic functionality for qualifying users who generate less than CA$1355 in annual revenue and use for home-based, non-commercial projects only.

[terse nymph]

yeah I’ll try again then

[robust forum]

its what I use

[terse nymph]

if it doesn’t work what do yall recommend

[velvet schooner]

It will work

Turn adblock off

[terse nymph]

oh right

pihole

toopid

[waxen tartan]

It's free isn't it

[terse nymph]

supposedly

[waxen tartan]

I've never paid for fusion and I've used it several times

I always say it's a piece of shit software tho

Weirdly laggy

Solid works and inventor just run better

[waxen tartan]

Oh is that stopping it from authenticating

[terse nymph]

possibly

[terse nymph]

It is sometimes but I like it

[velvet schooner]

It is finnicky

I regret not getting a year of solidworks for $24 in January

9 hour print because I added a hole under the end to store stuff 😭

[gloomy snow]

How did…you know what, GG

[waxen tartan]

I'm not sure how they did it but I'm impressed

[terse nymph]

I see similar

A lot.

[gloomy snow]

Thankfully I take care of my printer, currently have an A1 mini and I’ve put over 300 hours into it since like the 15th of December

[gloomy snow]

Getting a P1S in a couple weeks

[terse nymph]

I want an a1 mini SO BAD

[stuck cobalt]

A1 mini is really cool

But also u should’ve bought it couple months ago

[terse nymph]

doesn’t matter much here

[gloomy snow]

I would personally recommend the A1 over the A1 mini, mostly just for the larger build plate

And get these if you get it, it helps a ton https://voxelpla.com/products/hula-anti-vibration-damper

[waxen tartan]

Okay Mr microcenter

[gloomy snow]

Closest Micro Center to me is like 3-4 hours away from me

For me I need a new printer regardless of price since I'm starting up a shop and also my projects I'm doing are far too large for the A1 Mini

[terse nymph]

X1 P1 are fantastic for that

However may i recommend H2D

Dual nozzle means less changing colors

Half the waste and takes less time

It makes the X1 look baby

[gloomy snow]

It's honestly a good thing I don't live closer to one. And H2D is a bit out of my budget. Especially since I'm not making money from my projects yet

That's why I'm getting the P1S and the AMS Pro 2

I mainly print in single colors, not multi color

And also try my best to avoid print with supports. So PVA isn't needed

Main thing I want to figure out is a good way to heat up the enclosure to the P1S since it isn't a heated chamber

If I can find a good one I might put a ceramic panel heater in the enclosure

[robust forum]

I'm an ocean away

[gloomy snow]

Can’t wait until the weekend so I can redo and edit my project I’ve been working on for the past couple of weeks

[gloomy snow]

Also for those that have the Platform series desks, this system is great https://www.multiboard.io/

The spacing is the exact same as the metal pegboard under the desk and also the side pegboards.

So you can easily have cable channels, and other things directly mounted.

Just 3D print some M4 screws and nuts (I think I used M4) and you'll be perfect

[gloomy snow]

Also what Slicer do you guys like to use? I use Orca

[stuck cobalt]

bambu

[gloomy snow]

I used Bambu for a good bit, and then moved over to Orca for a couple features

I also have my printer set up with HomeAssistant

Work in progress layout

[gloomy snow]

Also adjusted the temps to show in C not F

Gotta love it when you fully print out something with threads, and forget to enable the modeled toggle

[robust forum]

prusa

[gloomy snow]

I want to get a Prusa, but will probably be once I get more familiar with printers in general. Having a Bambu makes things easy, but doesn't really give you a real experience outside of their own products

[robust forum]

I have an anycubic printer, I just prefer the prusa slicer

[gloomy snow]

Ah okay

I’m hoping once I get my new desk my prints will be a bit better. Currently dealing with some banding from the printing moving a lot on the current surface

[manic dome]

Well you can use any slicer for any printer really

I'm aware lol

What do you guys think?

[oblique meadow]

Is it just screwed in, doesn’t look like the normal clamp mounts

[gloomy snow]

Custom mount I made, it's screwed directly into the controller

Wanted a super clean mount, couldn't find one. So been working on this project for awhile

Still working on it though, keep running into issues that are annoying

[gloomy snow]

The entire thing though is solid

[safe apex]

I need a front usb thingy for my pc

Prob going to mod my cupholder mount that I have on my desk so that It can be useful

[gloomy snow]

I did that for my mount, has 2 USB 3.0 ports

[safe apex]

The thing is I need to find either more usb ports or get an expansion card

Could probably get by with a USB hub, but a expansion card would probably be more reliable

[safe apex]

I just looked and I can't get an expansion card bc I have a thick graphics card and the other one is for wifi and bluetooth

This is what gamers dream

[gloomy snow]

I want that on a MOBO xD

[safe apex]

Here

[gloomy snow]

Nah, not enough

[safe apex]

Hahaha

[gloomy snow]

Also learning CAD is something, and also annoying. Some things I want to do the software is just like "Nope, can't work on this face"

[safe apex]

Yeah CAD sucks sometimes it is very picky even down to the nanometer when you want to extrude something

[gloomy snow]

I have been working on this entire project blind xD More or less forcing myself to learn even if it's highly incorrect xD

[safe apex]

Do you have a good set of calipers?

[gloomy snow]

Don't ask me how many times I've used a sketch just to add onto something, I think I have like 70+ now xD

And most are dead, but can't delete or it'll mess stuff up

And yeah, was one of the first things I bought when I got my printer

[safe apex]

What software are you using for CAD?

[gloomy snow]

Fusion360, Personal

[safe apex]

Fuck that. I love me my inventor

I was told hey you should use solidworks but I have been taught inventor and it is like glue

[gloomy snow]

I wanted to try OnShape, but that is too damn expensive

[safe apex]

Inventor is free for college students so it's a plus

[gloomy snow]

Not in college atm, considering going next year for IT courses

[safe apex]

noice

I am almost finished

[gloomy snow]

Once I'm done with this model, I'm off to the next one

Or rather, picking up one I started months ago and haven't been able to complete until I get a new printer

[waxen tartan]

That poor USB controller 😭

[safe apex]

I'll be finnneeeee

[waxen tartan]

It's so much better than fusion yet somehow they're the same company

I do prefer solidworks but as you said, inventor being free for edu is a big W

Of course I don't have that anymore 😢

[gloomy snow]

I don't get why OnShape is so expensive, apparently it's really good but $1,500/year is nuts

[safe apex]

Yeah I am going to re apply for this year so that I can get more access to random crap. Hopefully I can get a lifetime license to it tho

[safe apex]

It's probably catered to the commercial aspect

[gloomy snow]

They have a free option, but all models you made are public access, so it’s a nope for me 😂

[gloomy snow]

Also learned that RTFM is actually useful sometimes, turns out when using inserts you should add 1mm deeper than you need, was wondering why I was having fitment issues with it perfectly flush xD

[waxen tartan]

time for my longest print

[stuck cobalt]

Damn

[velvet schooner]

I would split this up

[waxen tartan]

We shooting for the moon today

[stuck cobalt]

Good luck lol

[waxen tartan]

It's fiiiiiine

[safe apex]

Just watch it fail like at the middle of the print

🤣

[waxen tartan]

Looking good so far

[waxen tartan]

💪💪

[stuck cobalt]

Damnnn nice

[waxen tartan]

Getting there

[waxen tartan]

[velvet schooner]

5 bucks of filament and a full day is very high stakes

[waxen tartan]

It was fiiiiiiine

[gloomy snow]

Longest print I’ve done is I think 18 hours

Have about 4 hours of printing to do tonight, and then assembly

Assembly probably will take me 30 minutes or so

[gloomy snow]

And redesigning majority of the part now since I still couldn’t get it how I wanted. Hopefully this way it’ll actually be stronger and also less materials used

[terse nymph]

Blob of DOOM

[willow nymph]

It's a boy!

[terse nymph]

I was thinking but not saying

[waxen tartan]

That color makes it look worse

[gloomy snow]

How does this even happen? XD

[terse nymph]

lol idk

it just

does

[stuck cobalt]

Hell yeah that’s so cheap

[terse nymph]

How much filament is that?

that’s like 50¢ no?

[stuck cobalt]

1 kilo for like 6 usd

[terse nymph]

Crazy

What currency

[stuck cobalt]

Chinese yuan

[stuck cobalt]

Interesting failure

[stuck cobalt]

Oh wtf

[willow nymph]

Backrooms printer fr

[fathom vapor]

well, they call it stringing hell for a reason.

[willow nymph]

Somebody's filament needs drying

[fathom vapor]

Indeed.

[fathom vapor]

it's more than just that though

flowrate with this thing and stringing is so bad

[fathom vapor]

just got my new bambu p1s. I'll set it up and take a benchy pic when I get back

[stuck cobalt]

Mostly pla matte

[fathom vapor]

New p1s prints look good. First one is a render, I’ll take a photo of the result once I get back

[stuck cobalt]

https://eu.store.bambulab.com/products/pla-matte im buying one more someone choose a color that isn’t dark blue black white or lilac

@robust forum What do u think

[robust forum]

[stuck cobalt]

Ye

[fathom vapor]

it sucks that they’re out of petg hf

They said restock by July/August, so it’s gonna be a bit

[stuck cobalt]

Got some more colors it’s around 25-28 usd total

[stuck cobalt]

[velvet schooner]

Wow it’s so cheap to buy in China I got $150 worth of filament for $65

Crazy

[robust forum]

[stuck cobalt]

Hi 3D Printing Pals!

I'm going to make a post for this separately but wanted to share! We have a 3D Printing Designing competition on Printables right now!

You have until July 30th to get your submissions in.

https://www.printables.com/contest/482-corsair-components-make-it-yours

[manic dome]

oooooo

[timber mortar]

I suppose I should really join this group...

So My bad on this running a smooth sheet on PetG and the wrong supports. There was a bit of lifting on the larger piece but works for testing

Printer BTW is a Prusa Core One

[velvet schooner]

https://makerworld.com/models/1023303

I think this person should win the contest

[manic dome]

why is it so yellow

[velvet schooner]

Shiny variant

[shrewd mist]

it's a real issue
