The issue: The stand on this IBM monitor was optional, so not many had it (I have three and none of them have the stand), which is fine it sits fairly well unless you have the MM-1 multimedia option speakers in which case it's a bit too low for my liking.
The solution:
The part that actually mounts to the monitor is someone else's design that I found, it didn't quite fit so I modified the file. The rest I designed and is one of the first full start to finish things I've ever designed, just going by internet pictures and using digital calipers to measure the 3D printed swivel base.

Oh yeah. I'm not in the US so didn't think about that.

But the lasers needing external venting is a no go for me. So it’s the bigger bed and dual nozzle

I agree. If there was a way I could vent that out, I’d likely do it. But that situation is the same reason I don’t have a resin printer

Did they actually announce an AMS 2? I saw that the H2D comes with an AMS, but I didn’t see that it was anything special

Quieter, has a clever filament dryer, and you don't need to disassemble it to unclog it.
Backwards compatible.
lofty turret
is that what is bundled with the h2d? or is it a separate purchase?
bronze mesa
It has vents that open and close to let humid air out as needed during heating/drying.
It's bundled yeah. Afaik.
lofty turret
I mean, I would need a 2nd AMS for the 2nd nozzle obv……..I have a dryer already, but 2 is more than one and therefore better

upper lake
My house is super humid and I won’t be able to fix it in some years
Does that make using an enclosed 3d printer a must?
earnest shale
Humidity isn't particularly important while printing. It is important for the reel of filament, which will absorb moisture from the air. You'll have to store them in airtight ziplocks/containers with plenty of silica gel.
earnest shale
Does that make using an enclosed 3d printer a must?
You can get enclosed filament reel boxes for both storage and active drying
upper lake
But does it make sense to dry to then print it at 70% humidity? Is not necessary in that case to use enclosed printer (or both)
earnest shale
Yes. When the filament gets soggy it becomes brittle and will bubble as it comes through the hot end, deforming the print and messing with the flow.
The active humidity at print time is basically inconsequential
Enclosed is better in general for even heating though, so go for an enclosed one if you prefer
upper lake
I see, thanks for the answer, unthanks for not giving me an excuse to buy a closed 3D printer 😂

Is there a 3D Printing 101 you recommend?
lofty turret
You will spend the first week printing things for the printer
upper lake
I meant, something more "theoretical"
lofty turret
Not really. It’s probably best to buy some sort of (near) air tight container to store your filament. You’ll want to get the desiccant beads to store with the filament
upper lake
what about the different materials? how would I know what I want to use?
lofty turret
PLA is the easiest use, and will work for almost everything. Petg is more durable and heat resistant, but absorbs humidity much faster than PLA. ABS is stronger than PLA, but I have found that things don’t look as nice in ABS, so I only use it for things that I need to be stronger.
There are more but they are more exotic
upper lake
my custom insoles are 3d printed in something mixed with carbon fiber. Work great
lofty turret
Yeah, the cf filaments are very cool. But it’s like US$30 a spool, which is too much
Zero layer lines tho
upper lake
I don't have a clear reference of how much you can print with a spool
lofty turret
Any print over 100g is either big or dense. For instance, Todd’s mister case is like a total of 80g for the top, bottom, and buttons
That’s another thing that you’ll learn about: infill. Basically, how much shit do you want between the walls. The bigger the number, the more dense something would be. I’m currently printing a ghast for my kid. The head is only 5”x5”x5”, but the infill is like 30%, which means the print is like 100g. If I did a thin infill, I could probably print it for half that
upper lake
so it is always a race to see how much you can save on infill before making it structural unstable?
lofty turret
Nah, it’s more about whether or not you want things to feel solid
small stream
If you want sturdy, more walls. If you want heavy or less compressible, more infill. Generally speaking, you rarely need more than 30% infill, anything decorative will be fine with 5-10% depending on the pattern
lofty turret
It’s exactly what it says on the tin
Let’s say you’re printing a cube. The wall is the exterior structure, and you can make that stronger by increasing how many loops it does on the wall (layers) before it starts doing the infill. More wall loops = stronger walls
earnest shale
And if you're printing a box, the inner faces are also a wall. If the box is quite thin-walled, it may become only wall and no infill at all.

earnest shale
how much space should I leave between a closed 3d printer and the wall?
So! With the Anycubic S1, there are some pipes and shiz around the back - tubes feed out of the multifilament box to the printer in tube, via a rear mounted sensor box - plus there's a filament-dribbles waste chute and the IEC13 power cord. So you'd need about 10cm/4" clear round the back for that stuff. There are two fan outflows as well, but the other stuff is more space-demanding.
earnest shale
If you don't have the multifilament unit the default position for a spool holder is actually around the back. Which is pretty dumb.
A friend tells me the Bambu X1 is basically the same setup. I suspect all the new breed of boxed X1-alikes will be this way too.

The a1 mini have like four inputs for filament? But I don’t have an AMS, can I use those extra inputs for something?
wise thunder
Nope
warped scarab
You could, I guess, use four spools and four feeder tubes, but you'd have to manually pull the filament back and push it back in every time you unloaded a filament. Not really a time saver.
earnest shale
Interesting. My new Kobra S1 with AMS (ACE in their parlance) has one feeder tube at the printer, and a back mount 4-into-one collator for the AMS to push filament through
Seems a saner design
warped scarab
But that requires pulling the filament all the way back to there in order to swap them. Bambu cut the cost of the AMS by not including a rewind motor - it's just spring loaded. Once the drive gears relax, the spring pulls it back. And because of that, it only goes back a short distance - and because of that, the 4->1 is on the print head.
If you're going to pull the filament a longer way back, you pretty much have to use a motor/gear to do it. (not like a motor that can run in reverse is an astonishing expense, but it does complicate things.
earnest shale
Yep, that's all true. Pros and cons either way 🙂
Kobra's ACE is indeed motorised on the reels rewind, since it has about 60cm to pull in
Oh, the ACE costs £200 and the AMS is £270. So there's that.
And has a heater as well as the motor(s)...
Only downside I can see is that you can only stack two, therefore 8 reels. AMS goes to 4x, 16 reels
warped scarab
Oh, I was talking of the AMS Lite, sorry. I've never worked with an AMS, it must do motors both ways, since it has the 4->1 behind the printers, not attached to the head.

Not currently.
The firmware does not yet support mixing nozzle sizes (left vs. right or within Vortek hotend sets).

Why is the h2c so much more efficient than h2d
4 colors on a dual nozzle means one stays static and the other swaps out filaments on the same nozzle between 3 colors every layer. H2C assigns each of those 3 colors to its own nozzle and just picks it up.

I do feel there's a lot of Bambu users who don't "get" the traditional 3d printer users though. The average 3d printer guy in those groups just prints parts for printers. Some Bambu users see this and think "wow they go through so much trouble when I just get to do this and it just works", and completely miss the fact that modding/tinkering/having a unique build is 95% of the fun lol
I think Bambu does those users a great service, decent quality stuff that lets them do what they want to do. Prusa pretty much too.

Printed two, one on it's side and one face down to see which turned out better, the face down has some gleam like the original. Now to find a closer color (or change both and not worry about it...)

If I know anything and I certainly do it's a very fancy vape

that's a weird one. db15 on the back? is that for antonio's snac?

Can't remember who designed it...
I'm going to scope out some odd accessories on yahoo JP and try it out
Made a few alternate lids but I like the one I printed the most

When/If I get better at Fusion I'll try modifying the file for a Mister Stack

How does replayOS do arcade stuff?

Looks great! Except that's not a mister!
Someone smarter than me could probably do this in way less time, I have a lot to learn (like now to stack and test fit components in Fusion) but there'd be room....
Be lots to do, change the ports on the side, stack all the boards to see where best they fit, etc.

Finally got the workbench that’s been in the garage since before Thanksgiving setup in the office
Waiting on this print to finish on the P2S so I can reconnect the H2C (it’s a dual 4 into 1 connector mount for the H2)

That's an HD table!
I was just thinking about a UPS for the printer during the 44hr print....might have to explore that option.

Yeah I have a 1500va on each. They both cause them to go into overload during startup
But then it levels out
The APC can be perm muted, the Amazon basics one can not
I think I’m going to switch what printer they’re on. The APC is on the C and the Amazon one on the P2…. The H2C has low power mode to limit startup draw to 900w
So I can move the non mutable one there and put it in low power mode and not have to hear a beep ever lol

did you print that AMS rack?
lofty turret
danke shon
wise thunder
I’m printing a different one I think
That’s how far I have to pull it out to change lower ams filament
I want to reduce tube length for color swaps on the C
Think I may do this one

All bambu had to do was make them flat on top

I love that the first thing I did when I got my 3d printer was print parts for it.

that is the way

I'm learning! Decided I likely won't add stickers but I wanted at least the control panel to have some color so I edited the panel and included graphics (thickened the lines for better printing, cleaned up the text, etc) and printed it.

What’s with the little color swatch at the bottom
oak ferry
That's the purge tower, the little swatch the printer prints when swapping colors to get the flow correct before it lays it down on the print.
lofty turret
That’s really cool. Can you share that, dolch?
oak ferry
That’s really cool. Can you share that, dolch?
I can but it's not perfect, lots of "learning" stuff I'd do different next time
lofty turret
I'm printing the other one you recommended because I like the shorter stack and don't mind sliding the bottom one out
wise thunder
Yeah I wanted shorter tube lengths. It makes a difference when swapping nozzles on the H2C
Bottom had to be so long to slide out
lofty turret
yeah. there are some wild hacks on reddit for that shit
I thought I saw something about setting up a multiplexer so that the ams only pulled back to the multiplexer, rather than all the way back to the AMS
wise thunder
Yeah I bet they release something to only pull back to the 4 in 1 splitter eventually
Obviously would have to go to different AMS’s to make it faster
But I would imagine the logic will come
They need a ams2 pro pro with 4 outputs lol

What do you use ABS CF for? (geniune question). I've so far only used PLA and PETG, though I did buy some PPA-CF, no idea what I'll use it for.

Just printed a temp tower in ppa-cf the other day lol
Have some projects coming up for it I’m probably not allowed to post here 🤣

I kind of want to see if it will print cleaner (or, atleast, with less blemishes) than PLA for things like that rotary stick
i suppose I could also fuck around with settings

@wise thunder may be able to crank that bed temp to fix it. I do my automotive grade ASA at 115C bed lol
wise thunder
Works good enough
Not reprinting
Bumped temps to 50c
See if the next one warps

you need the super tack professional
They released that literally 3 days after mine delivered lol
Seems good so far

I used the scraper on my first print with the super tack unprofessional and it scraped off a bunch of coating. I think that's why they released the one for professionals

I gotta say the H2 series is fucking awesome
Love being able to print ASA like it’s PLA
My wife wanted one of the big Lego wreaths lol

I started a print on both around the same time and the UPS was _not_ happy
Oh yeah. I have each on a separate 1500va ups
I have the H2 in low power mode to keep the ups happy
It draws 1300w on startup otherwise
The P2S is also a big power consumer, more than the x1/p1. It will make the ups scream in startup as well just by itself
wise thunder
I have an Amazon basics ups that can’t be perm muted and a APC that can. So the APC is on the P2S since it doesn’t have a low power mode and the Amazon is with the H2C since I can limit its max power
So no more screaming on print starts now
I tried to do a H2C calibration on the Amazon one in not low power mode and it actually shut power off on me lol
Also man when the H2C gets moving it rocks my 140lbs workbench back and forth

Ok can’t imagine buying a $2400 printer as my first and asking where to buy PLA lol

Wouldn't you just buy it from bambu when you order your printer
