holy L volvo

[hollow fiber]

this set was only about a grand

usd

[lapis nova]

z9

smh

[hollow fiber]

slightly upsized so it looks nicer on the car

[lapis nova]

if that was factory they cooked

big L on their part

[hollow fiber]

nah it had some economical wheels

big cover type stuff

[lapis nova]

mine are steelies with big ass hubcaps

[hollow fiber]

didnt look terrible

but they were curbed the fuck out of

like

all 4 rims all around

[lapis nova]

average eco car

[hollow fiber]

big ass tires wtf

[lapis nova]

they are not big ass tires

[hollow fiber]

bro the tire is more than half the whole wheel

humungous tires bro

[lapis nova]

theyre 185/65R14

[hollow fiber]

american build tires

[hollow fiber]

53L iirc

not sure in gallons

[lapis nova]

so 14 gal

[hollow fiber]

yeah

[lapis nova]

i would get like 250 on a full tank idk

[hollow fiber]

bruh

crazy mileage

[lapis nova]

im at 1/4 full and ive drove 195

[hollow fiber]

ive driven across the country and back on a single tank

[lapis nova]

and its 11 gal

[hollow fiber]

diesel my love

[lapis nova]

so what 17 mpg

gah damn thats ass

wait

[lapis nova]

24 mpg

is my car

i did maths

[hollow fiber]

i get 38mpg using US units

[lapis nova]

diesel hella expensive in the US so it doesnt really make sense

i wanted a jetta

[hollow fiber]

ive been getting higher recently cuz i just glide everywhere now its fun

[lapis nova]

but my parents had one - nothing but issues apparently

[hollow fiber]

bad drivers

[lapis nova]

yeah probably

also

insurance hella expensive

hes single

if im single i end up like him

🔥

[hollow fiber]

a huzzless chud

[lapis nova]

hes goated

[lapis nova]

@hollow fiber get P2S

[hollow fiber]

why

[grand void]

this tooltrace ai stuff is working quite well for my gridfinity cutouts

[lapis nova]

better than p1s smh

[lapis nova]

tooltrace?

[grand void]

you have to put the thing you want a cutout for on or next to a piece of a4 paper and then take a picture from above. After that you can upload it to their website and get a print ready gridfinity box with the cutout. So far it works great and its free

[lapis nova]

[grand void]

@lapis nova which support material do you usually use for abs?

or @naive forge

[naive forge]

abs

I do need to actually look into it though, got a 11kg ABS print coming up with decent number of supports

[grand void]

oh so this isnt like petg where you tipically wanna use pla for support interfaces?

[naive forge]

I'm sure there's better support interface materials, I just don't know them

[grand void]

Google says its PLA

some other folks on the bambu forum apparently use HIPS

Since i already have a roll of PLA ill just try that first

[naive forge]

I keep chamber too hot to use PLA

[grand void]

yeah right thats something i forgot. About to start my first ASA print, you were doing 55c+ right?

[naive forge]

65C

[grand void]

fine, just started my first asa print. Lets see how it turns out

[naive forge]

Asa ive had good luck with asa-asa supports

[naive forge]

yeah... don't want this for ams 2 pro on a1m

[lapis nova]

ABS

[grand void]

@hollow fiber

looks fine

it also took me a solid second to find your name lol

[hollow fiber]

layer lines look trippy but nice

tetris!

[grand void]

probably just the light cuz i used phone flash for the pic. Irl they look like standard 0.2mm layer lines

[naive forge]

@lapis nova abs?

[lapis nova]

Ay you got any abs or nah

[naive forge]

All those boxes are abs lol

[lapis nova]

I know i was making a joke

[naive forge]

[lapis nova]

Silly goose

[naive forge]

ABS on ABS supports are fucking amazing

[naive forge]

@lapis nova @grand void @hollow fiber 50% off polymaker stuff on amazon RESELLERBF

[hollow fiber]

bro what

im uk so i dont think it applies 😔

[naive forge]

damn, should still check though

[hollow fiber]

nothin :/

sadge

[grand void]

unfortunately its not available here either

[naive forge]

damn

I just bought 44kg of filament for 55% off lol

[lapis nova]

yooooo

[lapis nova]

are we deadass

its not working

[naive forge]

how many spools?

[lapis nova]

uno

[lapis nova]

i put 4 spools and it applied

[naive forge]

yeah needs 4 spools

[lapis nova]

i see

@naive forge what would be some fun filaments to get from polymaker

[naive forge]

Up to you lol

I bought 4kg of PC and 40KG of PLA with it

[lapis nova]

40kg 😭😭😭

[naive forge]

10kg bundle of draft PLA

lol

[lapis nova]

ah

[lapis nova]

are dissolvable supports worth it

they seem rlly nice

I’m also gonna get some 95A TPU

[naive forge]

if you have a niche need sure, but PVA is an absolute bitch to print with

[lapis nova]

Just for a good surface finish - I have these header trailers I print for a friend and the surface finish on some of the parts suck balls

[grand void]

i experimented with a new petg supplier today and immediately threw that shit away. Probably the worst filament ive ever used lol

[lapis nova]

Ima get polymaker petg

Possibly some pa6-cf for funnies

[grand void]

jayo petg is the best for me cuz its flawless with standard settings and i can get it for cheap on aliexpress

like 35€ for 5.5kg

[lapis nova]

Lukas are u American?

Nvm

[grand void]

fortunately not

[lapis nova]

You missing out on this

[grand void]

well atm i wish to be american to get that poly discount lol

yeah

[lapis nova]

do u have relatives in America to ship it to

kekl

[grand void]

nope i only have a hotel address from when i was in america for vacation

i still need to reprint my asa funnel for my car

[lapis nova]

lmao

[grand void]

i also rearranged my room which means i have space for another printer

could get a kobra 3 for dirt cheap on kleinanzeigen and use that for tpu

and other stuff that cannot be printed with the ams

[lapis nova]

P2S

H2S

[grand void]

do i look like im made out of money

also h2d or bust

[lapis nova]

Yeah

https://tenor.com/view/smol-smolcat-smolcatcoin-smol-cat-coin-roswell-gif-5972314891354809109

[lapis nova]

@naive forge starting to think about P2S on Black Friday sale…..

[naive forge]

if it had a chamber heater I'd be more excited tbh

also has shit air filtration... like h2 series

[lapis nova]

I mean it’s $549 normally

So with BF discount it should be pretty good

I want that screen

😭

[naive forge]

lol fair

[lapis nova]

I’m too lazy to look at website

How much is H2S

alone

wasn’t it $1200?

[zenith sequoia]

do these make zooming smooth or something

why people use them

@tender pawn do you think extension tubes are 3d printable

Hmm

[tender pawn]

Yes, the only issue the the locking pin mechanism and how you decide to implement it, to prevent the lens from just twisting and sliding off

[tender pawn]

Because some people have better fine motor skills for precision focusing when the focusing mechanism is more ergonomic.

[zenith sequoia]

what have you printed for your camera stuff

[tender pawn]

You can also gear the throw if it is mechanical and not electrical/configurable

[tender pawn]

Mostly designed lens caps and hot shoe mount stuff

[zenith sequoia]

all ive done is a hot shoe cover with the indiana university logo

[tender pawn]

Also made a m42 to Z adapter, but I would recommend metal for this

[tender pawn]

I've done that with the Z logo, but I burnt the Nikon Z logo into them with my infrared laser

[zenith sequoia]

thats dope

d500 rig lmao

i could print out a few of those zoom gear thingies lol

[lapis nova]

yes

[hollow fiber]

this is just....

not gonna work

if youre trying to print a rig

[zenith sequoia]

Why not

[lapis nova]

It’s gonna be a shit rig

[zenith sequoia]

maynnn yall haters

[lapis nova]

D500 ass

[zenith sequoia]

wheres z6 rig

u poor

[naive forge]

Printed rig will work... just not gonna rec it for everything, especially small clamp parts

[hollow fiber]

or the rods lol

thats the biggest concern for me

a cage and whatever sure itll work okay for now until it explodes

the rods with constant force with typically some sort of weight on em is a worry

[zenith sequoia]

Could just buy rods

Carbon fiber rods

[lapis nova]

Good boy

[hollow fiber]

could just...

buy a rig

or a better cam instead of rigging a mid dslr

[grand void]

rigging a d500 is definitely one of the choices of all time

[hollow fiber]

quite a stupid one

rig for a camera with no video af and poor video spec is peculiar 😭

[zenith sequoia]

hey someone else designed it

im just printing it lol

[lapis nova]

For 0 reason

[hollow fiber]

enjoy

[naive forge]

wtf did I just read

[hollow fiber]

i

dont know

i found it so you all have to witness it too

couldnt be me

[lapis nova]

@naive forge

[naive forge]

mhm

cheaper

[lapis nova]

Should I buy it tho

[naive forge]

IDK, do you need it?

[lapis nova]

Yes

[lapis nova]

I hate this p1s screen

plus the camera is actually usable

[naive forge]

do you need it now or can you wait?

[lapis nova]

Wait for what

[naive forge]

p2s to come into the US, no clue on when though

p2s would be a much better purchase

[lapis nova]

Isn’t p2s more expensive

[lapis nova]

I don’t remember what p2s msrp is

[naive forge]

mmmm maybe, thought they were/might be pretty close

[lapis nova]

How would it be better tho

[naive forge]

p2s msrp atleast in EU (no clue about US) the p2s combo is a bit more than x1c non-combo price

[naive forge]

better x-axis rods
better nozzle
better camera
better screen
newer printer so support will last longer

[lapis nova]

how much is x1c non combo in eu

[naive forge]

fucking insane, but basing it off us x1c price

[lapis nova]

so converted to USD what would it be

[naive forge]

P2S
600 / 864.88 USD (so higher than I remembered for the combo)

[lapis nova]

wtf

[grand void]

about to print a wall mount for my lego concorde

i wonder if PLA would be strong enough

[naive forge]

It'll be strong enough, but you want to over design what ever holder you print so you can prevent creep

[grand void]

i got the holder from printables and then strengthened it up more in the slicer

[grand void]

holds up so far

[hollow fiber]

big ass shadow

bro built like the clash giant

[grand void]

there was a massive light source behind me lol

and im wearing an oversized hoodie

[random coral]

Real

[lapis nova]

ayo send it over

I have the Concorde too

[grand void]

this is a flush mount tho

[zenith sequoia]

how does it mount

[grand void]

black magic

theres a hole at the bottom of the concorde for the standard pedestal and the mount can be pushed into said hole

[zenith sequoia]

talm bout sum holes

thats cool

lego hole for pedestal huh

ah

thats cool

[grand void]

the guy who made it added some additional layers to create some friction for the concorde to not fall off

yeah its a cool stand but i dont have room anymore lol

[naive forge]

crazy hold

[random coral]

this set is sick

my friends bought me the 747sca on my bday

that one is awesome tootho u cant lower the gear on the stand

which is kinda annoying tbh i like my models gear down

[grand void]

lego does have some cool sets but most of them are just massively overpriced or plain garbage

kinda unfortunate that they went from this cool family run company with affordable toys to a (still family run) mega corporation that just focuses on making as much money as possible

i guess thats what you get when most of your C suite positions are held by former mckinsey strategists

[lapis nova]

😔

The vehicles ones are probably the best

[grand void]

if you want good vehicles go for cada

the cada amg one is such an awesome set

[lapis nova]

mmm offbrand lego

[grand void]

offbrand lego has much better quality bricks like 90% of the time

[lapis nova]

[grand void]

no 26mm smh my head

[lapis nova]

this lens is fantastic

it’s perfect for literally anything

[grand void]

is it weather sealed?

[lapis nova]

I don’t believe so

[hollow fiber]

airshow?

[lapis nova]

yes

[grand void]

decided to put my lego f1 car on the wall too

[zenith sequoia]

twink hand

[lapis nova]

@naive forge its really tempting if it comes in stock

i highly doubt p2s will anytime soon

[naive forge]

Lol

[naive forge]

assuming they are struggling with customs atm

[lapis nova]

with tariffs and shit p2s probably not gonna come

yeah

so that means this probably wont restock either?

[naive forge]

[lapis nova]

or if it restocks, p2s will come with

[lapis nova]

if it comes in stock i might

sell the p1

[lapis nova]

@naive forge people say its FCC thats affecting P2S

[naive forge]

Oh possibly

[naive forge]

@lapis nova p2s 549 / 799

[lapis nova]

Alr I’m buying

Printer only I don’t need 2 ams

@naive forge $52 nozzle is wild

[zenith sequoia]

already going there sometime tho

[zenith sequoia]

How much is P1S

One on marketplace for 350 near me

[naive forge]

399 usd

Personally, 49 isnt enough for me to go non-brand new

[zenith sequoia]

Ah

Yeah definitely

[grand void]

are your prints much better now

[lapis nova]

yes

[grand void]

just designed my first ever model with fusion

as soon as you get to grips with it, its so much better than tinkercad lol

im still slow as shit tho so any complex model will take ages to make

[hollow fiber]

i can see why its better its just.... a big learning curve when i make stuff once a month

[naive forge]

Yeah, but it is nice

[lapis nova]

lemme see

oh @naive forge my dads work got an H2D, 2 AMS 2 Pro, and 1 AMS HT

[naive forge]

nice

[grand void]

its just an empty square with screw holes acting as an under-desk ssd holder lol

[naive forge]

my models I've been working on

hopefully they are complete now

[lapis nova]

🔥

[hollow fiber]

p1s for 180 lol

cracked glass

[lapis nova]

yes

[hollow fiber]

good deal

but too lazy to sell a1

[lapis nova]

then two printer

[grand void]

do you still have the p1s?

[lapis nova]

Yea

Sold the A1 mini

[grand void]

@naive forge 16 do you have any ideas why my layer adhesion seems to be incredibly poor after like 50% of the print? My first ASA print worked flawlessly with the standard settings (250c, 100c) but the second one failed halfway through like seen in the image. I decreased the print speed and upped the temperature to 255c but got the same issue again. Filament is properly dryed as well

[naive forge]

What brand asa and what chamber temps?

Also whats the preview in slicer look like?

[grand void]

Flashforge ASA and chamber temps are at about 50c. Dont have access to the slicer at the moment but is there something i need to look out for?

[naive forge]

Just anything weird around the height it failed, small gaps, weird protrsutions. Etc...

[grand void]

Thanks ill take a look at the model later. Im just a bit confused because the print worked flawlessly for the first time. Second print was the exact same model with the same settings.

i guess thats just the truth with 3d printing sometimes lol

[naive forge]

Hmm

[zenith sequoia]

how much does printer really matter

obviously cant make the build plate bigger or stuff, but otherwise arent they all pretty simple machines?

[random coral]

i think for larger items the prnter doesn really matter too much (assuming theres no quality ur after) but for smaller items the printer probably does matter cuz some are more precise and accurate than others

[zenith sequoia]

Hmm

most quality id like is to be able to press fit bearings

or like hotshoes

[zenith sequoia]

think i could just buy some random one off marketplace then?

[naive forge]

It can be very important or not as important depending on goals and materials used

I will hazard against used printers as its nearly impossible to find common issues without turning on and operating the printer and having knowledge already

[random coral]

probably yeah but i would not do that

[zenith sequoia]

Hmm

i know my way around a prusa mk4 from my school

thats about it tho

[naive forge]

Lemme find a photo real quick

Not on here, but instead of prusa core one there is a bambulab p2s

[zenith sequoia]

why is big shit so expensive

[naive forge]

Cause its big shit and they tend to be the higher tier products sold by companies

Cheap big shit is well.... shit

[zenith sequoia]

what multi color mean

any can change colors right

after a layer

[naive forge]

It can change colors/materials automatically in the middle of a print, some advanced uses of this can mean several thousands changes in 1 print

This is 1 single print that isnt painted for example

[zenith sequoia]

yeah but they dont mean layer changes right

any printer will do those

[naive forge]

No, you can have 10 colors on 1 layer for example

[naive forge]

Technically but that involves you changing the filament everytime, in this case its done automatically

[zenith sequoia]

yeah just making sure i can change with layers

i dont see myself ever used multicolor icl

[naive forge]

For me its mostly a nice to have

[zenith sequoia]

non klipper?

is that some software

[naive forge]

Firmware the printer runs

Klipper is generally the most open source/customizable, but its really upto personal preference

If you want to mod the printer down the road it can be worth it, if you just want to print stuff it doesn't really matter

[zenith sequoia]

Hmm

what mods

[naive forge]

Anything.

[zenith sequoia]

if i can make it, able to queue stuff and then push finished prints off, and also upload stuff through network, that's about all I'd want

[naive forge]

Queue and push stuff off is possible, but quite a bit more involved/complicated than you may hope

Most reliable is typically using a bed slinger (bed moves back and forth on y axis)

[zenith sequoia]

Hmm

so nozzle just goes back and forth on x axis?

cant just put the bed on a tilt and then print something on the nozzle to push it off with gcode once its cooled?

Is there any DIY printer that can mostly be printed minus the electrical components

[naive forge]

Its just not super reliable, but yes you can

[naive forge]

Yeah but idk whats good or not on that side of things

[zenith sequoia]

any pointers?

you like a 3d printing merchant right

[naive forge]

I sell some things but its not really a main goal of mine

I use a swapmod for my a1 mini though

[naive forge]

Do you have any ideas of what you want to print?

[zenith sequoia]

uh, really anything. I like drones a little, designing one might be cool when i have free time. lots of goofy tinkering stuff I think

I mean having the capability to create plastic anything sounds dope

[naive forge]

Id say qidi q1p/q2c would be nice if you really want to do drone stuff otherwise p2s or anything on that bottom row would be a good option

[zenith sequoia]

why chambers help with drone stuff?

[naive forge]

You'll want materials that require higher chamber temps to print well

[zenith sequoia]

hmmm

[zenith sequoia]

if not that serious, everything on the bottom row should be able to be modded into queuing right?

and network stuff

do you have a homeserver or anything

[naive forge]

Many of them have network connectivity stock, if not all of them.

Queuing is really a printer by printer basis, they all technically can, but whether or not something already exists is unknown

[naive forge]

I do, but it has 0 contact with my printers

[zenith sequoia]

Hmm

which printer would let me like use a custom web interface and stuff

hosted on my server

[naive forge]

Uhhhh, a klipper printer, but no clue how they are with non-native hosted ui's, never bothered or cared to look into it as its kinda useless to me tbh

Run ui on printer or rpi connected to printer
Access on lan
Use VPN to remote into lan as needed or run cloud service like obico

[zenith sequoia]

i guess... would just be nice if i could send shit to it like whenever i want, and come home to all of them printed

[naive forge]

Yeah you dont need anything special for that beyond a self hosted vpn like tailscale

[zenith sequoia]

why would I need tailscale?

I should be able to just port forward it and access it from wherever

[naive forge]

To access ui/printer outside of your homes wifi

[zenith sequoia]

port forwarding

[naive forge]

Just an easy way to do it without always leaving an open port

[zenith sequoia]

ig

[naive forge]

Outside of bambu, they all do require a pc (or laptop) of some sort to slice and send files so you are aware

[naive forge]

Ill have to see how they are with port forwarding also

[zenith sequoia]

yeah thats another thing i was wondering, if I could bake it into my web interface and have the server slice it and then send it

[naive forge]

Not possible with most common slicers, but im sure there is a way

[zenith sequoia]

peepoBloshie

[naive forge]

Hmmm they do offer stuff like that then, prusaslicer is the choice to go with

[zenith sequoia]

which brand has the biggest community? I believe that brand will have the most modding options

prusa?

[zenith sequoia]

not a single prusa 😭

[naive forge]

Prusa core one is up there, they just frankly arent all that good anymore, they have expensive printers with last year's tech

[naive forge]

Bambulab is the biggest, but qidi and creality has a solid modding community, sovol has decent too depending on exact printer

Bambulab is not made for modding btw*

[zenith sequoia]

a1 mini just seems limited with 180x180x180

still pretty big tho

[naive forge]

I would say 90% of my prints fit on it, but that ultimately comes down to user

[zenith sequoia]

yeah

cool stuff

[lapis nova]

It’s really not

I only had a couple parts not fit

[zenith sequoia]

Like what

[lapis nova]

A plane wing, paid print for a company

not a whole lot

a header trailer for someone

uhhhhh

that’s about it

[zenith sequoia]

anyone got uh lens cap models

shit like this

[random coral]

Theres a few on printable and thingverse

[grand void]

@naive forge i figured out what the issue was with my asa prints. Turns out the model lost bed adhesion entirely during the print. Increased bed temperature by 5c and now it works

[naive forge]

sounds about right lol

[zenith sequoia]

[random coral]

[grand void]

made another small upgrade to my workbench

[hollow fiber]

https://tenor.com/view/altair-falling-ac1-assassin’s-creed-assassin-gif-6649267272393915766

that poor mac the second you take your eyes off it

[grand void]

nuh uh i made sure to print it really strong

that asa print was the one i had trouble with lol

[random coral]

real

[lapis nova]

wait til it falls teehee

[grand void]

Im still waiting for the day when my Lego f1 car falls off the wall cuz the holder was printed with pla and like 7% infill lol

[lapis nova]

https://tenor.com/view/lego-baby-yoda-destroyed-lego-baby-yoda-grogu-baby-gif-17609572201570117169

[grand void]

I can either gamble on the current mount or make one out off asa/petg

The car weighs a fuck ton cuz it’s huge so it’s basically a matter of time before we have a disaster

[lapis nova]

make one

you bomboclat

[grand void]

Has to wait for another 3h cuz I’m currently printing a wall mounted rack for my filament spools

[lapis nova]

I keep mine in air tight plastic box thingy

[grand void]

Me too but I find it annoying to always pull out the box whenever I wanna switch filaments. Id also like to see what filaments I have in one glance

[lapis nova]

ah I get that

Mine just sits on the floor in the corner

[random coral]

eek

i dont have dryboxes

[grand void]

I just used to do the box thingy for drying purposes but since the ams has built in drying idrc anymore

[random coral]

im too broke for it

[grand void]

I exclusively bought a drybox for tpu lol

And whatever non compatible filament I will get in the future

[grand void]

Kinda tempted to buy the kobra 2 max for 180€ directly from anycubic

420x420x500mm would be neat

[zenith sequoia]

wtf

for 180?

damn

[grand void]

Yeah I’m a bit hesitant tho cuz reviews are mixed

The build volume is just really enticing

[hollow fiber]

meh cant be horrible if you just toss a huge nozzle on it

id expect

[grand void]

0.2mm nozzle and off we go

[hollow fiber]

off you go where? 😭

35h print print time for a 30x30cm first layer

[grand void]

To 3 week printing times

Im curious how long a full volume print would take

[hollow fiber]

multiple hundred hours at 0.2 lol

[grand void]

filament rack is done

do not look at the left wall mount

[random coral]

Im looking right at it

[lapis nova]

[grand void]

hey i actually made sure to print the mounts as strong as possible

they feel like a solid chunk of plastic

[zenith sequoia]

What budget printer if I want good speed and accuracy

Didn't realize how much that varied

Print that the prusa mk4 did flawlessly at like 1.2hrs was over 3hrs for some elegoo one

[zenith sequoia]

Build plate size not a concern

[zenith sequoia]

Part of the print was a motor enclosure, I had to shave off corners of the motor to fit it because when the thing printed out the walls, corners melted inward

[grand void]

bambulab a1 mini is good and cheap

otherwise theres also the anycubic kobra 3 in the same price range

it offers a bigger print volume but its a bit less polished

less polished as in it may require some more fiddling around with before its prints are great

[zenith sequoia]

will be comparable to a mk4?

[grand void]

yeah they’ll both get you great results. Directly comparing them is a bit difficult as one costs >200€ and the other about 700€. Prusa and bambu also follow different philosophies for 3d printing. Bambu is quite a locked down and tightly integrated system so if your intentions are to modify the printer then prusa or anycubic/creality would all be better

[zenith sequoia]

bambu possible to create some way to queue prints? automating taking them off?

has to be right? big ahh bambu community

[hollow fiber]

already exists yeah

[grand void]

yeah theres an autoswap mod for the a1 series. It wont work with an enclosed printer like the p series

[zenith sequoia]

goated

a1 mini i think it is then

[grand void]

the mod for the a1 mini is quite cool cuz it auto swaps build plates

which works more reliably compared to just knocking off the print from the build plate

[zenith sequoia]

does that also mean i need another build plate tho

[grand void]

yep

the method that only requires one plate wont work reliably with flatter/smaller models and filament that has strong bed adhesion

[hollow fiber]

basically just throw the print by knocking it off

or new plate

shrimple

get a supertack plate and its fine

i hate my supertack because its too good

i cant get shit off and end up scratching it

or heating it to 100c and burning myself peeling it off

[grand void]

my aliexpress special plate is fucking great. Prints stick perfectly while printing and can be easily removed after the print is done.

[grand void]

big ass printer

i need a new desk solution cuz the current one isnt wide enough lol

[lapis nova]

ew bedslinger

[grand void]

im going to sling your z6

[lapis nova]

do it

no balls

[random coral]

you arent real gng

[zenith sequoia]

on god

[lapis nova]

[random coral]

what the freaky

[lapis nova]

my dads work got one

they also bought 2 more ams

so 4 total

🤑🤑🤑

[hollow fiber]

printer table complete

[lapis nova]

fire

[grand void]

you bought the p2s right?

[grand void]

looks like enough space for a second printer tbh

[lapis nova]

Ye

[grand void]

is it worth it for 130€ more or can i also buy a p1s?

[lapis nova]

It’s better than the X1C in a bunch of ways so I’d say buy the P2S over P1S

Chamber temp regulating, upgraded extruder motor, easy swap nozzle, usable live view cam, auto plate detection, touchscreen, brighter LEDs, smaller purge line, way better purge wiper/chute

Steel rods over carbon rods

[grand void]

did you buy the combo? I think i dont really need an AMS as ive printed multicolor like once in a year.

[lapis nova]

I didn’t but I have the AMS from my P1S

FYI if you want to buy the AMS 2 Pro later, you need to buy the P2S filament buffer. The OG AMS comes with a buffer, but only for the P1P/S X1C

[zenith sequoia]

hmmge~1

wonder what to print

i did a hood for a lens, few caps, and hotshoe covers, thinking to go to my bag now

[zenith sequoia]

@random coral is this orientation fine to print

walls are 2mm

orange arrows are the forces it will experience

[random coral]

uhhh

idk

i dont really make pieces that experience force

but i think the orientation should work with a brim on it

[zenith sequoia]

cool

[hollow fiber]

could maybe print on a slight tilt to avoid shearing but really a non issue

[hollow fiber]

its enough for 3 if i had a big enough enclosure lol

[lapis nova]

P2S

@grand void you get one too

[hollow fiber]

dont need

500gbp lmfao

[lapis nova]

you don’t need z9

[hollow fiber]

they can fuck off

[lapis nova]

better than X1C

[zenith sequoia]

print on a tilt?

supports would be a pita no?

[hollow fiber]

like a 45 degree tilt lengthwise
supports become annoying yeah but strength increases

id probably just use a larger nozzle or print profile just to get a little more strength

also really depends on what the part is for

[hollow fiber]

idk what that is

a1 is fine

[zenith sequoia]

tripod cup for backpack

[lapis nova]

Flagship printer

Well

Was flagship

It’s like $800 USD

[hollow fiber]

uhhh

how would this work?

what other parts

[zenith sequoia]

cup with a strap horizontal on it

just holds two straps

slip on the backpack, slip 2nd strap on the clip

[lapis nova]

Damn I don’t even see it on their website anymore

Rip X1C

[hollow fiber]

is a1 ams compatible with p1s

[lapis nova]

the lite?

[hollow fiber]

uhh

yeah

forgor

[lapis nova]

na

it doesn’t

it’s a bum ass ams anyways

[hollow fiber]

oh then that orientation is fine

[hollow fiber]

no upgrade for me 🙏

need zf

[lapis nova]

teehee

[lapis nova]

also fuh naw

[zenith sequoia]

figured

will print with a skirt tho

[hollow fiber]

p1s is probably about as far as id go
(if cheap enough like £300)

[lapis nova]

ur willing to spend a million on zf but not P2S

[zenith sequoia]

zf???

cooked

[hollow fiber]

£1000 for something ill use often vs £550 for a printer ill use once every 2 months

[lapis nova]

one truth and one lie ahh

[hollow fiber]

p1s for 400 with ams....

hmmm

[lapis nova]

gyatt

ams brand new is $300 usd

[hollow fiber]

£400*

i got my a1 + ams for 350

is good price?

[lapis nova]

skul

u also got the peasant ams with your a1

[hollow fiber]

idk the difference

also idk if p1s will fit in enclosure :P

[lapis nova]

not enclosed

brotha

it is enclosed

it has carbon filter

u can also magnet ur duct shit to the exhaust

[hollow fiber]

i need external ventilation

oh chill then

[lapis nova]

there’s exhaust fan at the back

u can either use the fan screws or I believe u can magnet to it

@hollow fiber

[hollow fiber]

yeah just gotta modify some models to fit my server fan into it

moar pressure

[lapis nova]

weak ass mf

[hollow fiber]

id rather not have lung cancer

id like a family in future and not to die at 20

[lapis nova]

loser

[hollow fiber]

poop chute behind printer seems weird too

[lapis nova]

nah not really

u can print thingy that makes it go to the side of ur printer

[hollow fiber]

ahh the ramp thing

i believe the ventilation stuff covers it somehow anyway

well partially

so it doesnt let any fumes out from there

[lapis nova]

bruh

[hollow fiber]

stay prepared cuh

[lapis nova]

fragile mf

[hollow fiber]

quite cool

[lapis nova]

😭

bro it’s not this serious

[hollow fiber]

i dont be breathing no fumes bro

never

[lapis nova]

toughen up lil bro

bro gonna be living in his parents house til he’s 40

[hollow fiber]

gonna live to 40 unlike you...

ive found someone wanting to buy an a1

so sent them a message

if they buy it i cop the p1s

[hollow fiber]

what nozzle p1s take

i assume i cant use a1 ones

[lapis nova]

correct

[lapis nova]

P1S nozzle

[hollow fiber]

proprietary?

[lapis nova]

basically yeah

this is where I’d rec a P2S cuz they’re way faster to change

[hollow fiber]

costs more on its own than p1s combo

[lapis nova]

$550 USD

[hollow fiber]

£400 for p1s combo or £560 for p2s no ams

[lapis nova]

How often do you change nozzle

Imma be real the P1S nozzle change sucks dick compared to P2S/A1

[hollow fiber]

rarely

[lapis nova]

then ur fine with P1S

[hollow fiber]

like once a month max lol

[lapis nova]

P1S is two screws and 2 cables

[lapis nova]

Someone else’s pic but u can see the screws and cables

[hollow fiber]

https://youtube.com/shorts/hcZPxbCLtBE?si=dqHm4KHHRctg_QKS

smth like this could make it easier no?

[lapis nova]

There u go

Ya probably I just buy Bambu stuff

I trust it

[hollow fiber]

hmm

this thing looks cool

whole nozzle unscrews so no disassembling

[lapis nova]

This is how like every other non Bambu printer is

ye

[hollow fiber]

but ill prob just stick to stock for a while

[lapis nova]

otherwise Bambu you either need to swap the heater and thermistor over to a new nozzle or buy the complete nozzle

Cuz for these, the heater and thermistor is in the actual nozzle

[hollow fiber]

yeah id just but the whole hotend

[lapis nova]

changing the stuff isn’t awful but it’s messy cuz thermal paste

[hollow fiber]

easier to either get the upgrade or just new hotends

[lapis nova]

Ye

I hear the biqu hot swap nozzle thingy sucks dick so beware

[hollow fiber]

skull

welp we'll see what the a1 sells for

[random coral]

zf

pretty cool ig

but expense

[lapis nova]

@naive forge my dad just gave me some nylon 680

[grand void]

ive found a new p1s for 290€ which tempts me to buy it but i need a reality check cuz id be keeping my kobra s1. Having 2 corexy printers from totally different brands seems like a dumb idea as i would have to buy a completely new kit of accessories and juggle between 2 different slicers. At this point it seems more sensible to just buy a second kobra s1 for the same price but id really like to give a higher end bambu a shot

[lapis nova]

id just get p2s minimum

if u want high end

p2s is basically x1c replacement

[grand void]

If I want high end I’m buying an h2d

[zenith sequoia]

what do u guys print so much to justify hundreds on printers

[random coral]

print

[lapis nova]

then do it

[hollow fiber]

i yearn for the p1s but my a1 must sell first

[grand void]

sex toys

[grand void]

me too but another kobra s1 would be way smarter for as i already have one with tons of accessories

are you gonna get a new ams tho?

[hollow fiber]

yea apparenly lite not compatible

[grand void]

ams 2 pro

[hollow fiber]

its 400 for a p1s with ams sooooo

not baddd

[grand void]

no built in drying tho

[hollow fiber]

i dont print anything that needs drying

especially in uk climate

[grand void]

whats the a1 case for then?

oh for avoiding fumes i guess

[hollow fiber]

yuppp

p1s im gonna get ventilation prints for

[grand void]

ill just buy a second kobra s1 instead. Can equip one with .4 and the other with .6 as i already own a bunch of hotends.

[lapis nova]

he’s a fragile mf

can’t handle PLA fumes

[hollow fiber]

this guy def vapes

[lapis nova]

nah I don’t but my homies do

[hollow fiber]

you're also stupid so its soon to start

[lapis nova]

na

[hollow fiber]

bit of an expensive addiction for u tho

[lapis nova]

plastic fumes better than nicotine

smh

[hollow fiber]

killing myself vs killing myself

[lapis nova]

one is less

[hollow fiber]

one makes you feel good

[lapis nova]

and kills u faster

[hollow fiber]

one makes your nose hurt

[lapis nova]

bro what

[hollow fiber]

no im sure pla fumes do it faster

molten plastic being inhaled

[lapis nova]

my nose doesn’t burn when inhaling PLA

[hollow fiber]

bro lost all the nerves already

plastic is like notoriously not healthy to inhale

only reason its deemed safe is because its a new technology

[lapis nova]

you think I’m purposely doing it

[hollow fiber]

gl in 5 years

you actively are...

[lapis nova]

no

wait you would like P2S

it has rubber seal thingy

[hollow fiber]

wuh

[lapis nova]

wait

[lapis nova]

by door hinge

[hollow fiber]

id assume so if enclosed

but also poop chute open

so im gonna seal that mostly with rubber/silicone and use hella positive pressure to turn it into a cool air intake

[hollow fiber]

p1s no have?

[lapis nova]

no it’s more open there

but not gonna kill u

you can easily fix it with tape or whatever

[hollow fiber]

oh ill have to seal that manually then

shrimple

[lapis nova]

yes

ez

ok I go to work now bye bye

[hollow fiber]

idek if ill get one

itd open up a lot more desk space i guess

[lapis nova]

yes

could put on the ground too lol

it’s enclosed so cats can’t get in

[hollow fiber]

naur issue with ground is just a pain to access for me

back problems at 18 😔

table makes it easy

[lapis nova]

you really are fragile

[hollow fiber]

pretty much yeah

[grand void]

kinda valid tho. I always have the cases filtration on and i have an air purifier in the room, even though im not in the same room as the printer

[hollow fiber]

im losing dexterity in my hands by the day lmfao

its over for me

[lapis nova]

I’m usually always in the same room as my printer as it’s printing, same with my brother, he only pointed out the PA6-GF which I get

[hollow fiber]

youre exposing yourself to nylon???

are you retarded??

[grand void]

asa is pretty stinky too at least compared to pla/petg

[lapis nova]

ABS is baaaaad

[hollow fiber]

i really have no idea what any of it smells like anymore

[lapis nova]

see you grow out of it

[hollow fiber]

i let my printers air out for like an hour before opening

no i just be careful

[lapis nova]

do you put on a hazmat suit too

[hollow fiber]

usually cover my mouth yes lol

[lapis nova]

brotha

[hollow fiber]

i do not play when it comes to my health

[lapis nova]

don’t you vape

[grand void]

but has back pain at this young of an age smh my head

[lapis nova]

real

got his back broke last night or smth

[hollow fiber]

😔

sadly somehow

[grand void]

i very very rarely have back pain even tho im sitting for like 80% of the day

[lapis nova]

shit posture moment

[hollow fiber]

my posture is usually quite good

i just have my feet on my desk a lot

[grand void]

but i have other health related issues so im still a bit fucked lol

[lapis nova]

❌

[hollow fiber]

i blame all of my problems on the brain tumor

get out of jail free card

[lapis nova]

I have wild seasonal allergies and asthma

👍

[grand void]

i have allergies all year round, incredibly shit eyes and a skin disease

[hollow fiber]

kit lens bad or worse

[lapis nova]

peak

I have mid eyes

[grand void]

10% eye sight worse and close to a cornea transplantation lol

[hollow fiber]

inshallah my friend

[lapis nova]

mibomboclat

rip

oke I gotta go into work now 😔😔

[grand void]

well i do have contacts that get my up to 115% but i cant wear them all day and i couldnt wear them for like 3 years cuz of surgeries and infections

[lapis nova]

5-10:30 shift is buns

[hollow fiber]

5 hours 😭

[lapis nova]

it’s closing

which is the bad part

[grand void]

its 12pm and i still procrastinate disassembling my kobra 2 max

[random coral]

pla basically doesn't smell like anything

[lapis nova]

real

[zenith sequoia]

i should get a printer

so useful

[hollow fiber]

it does its just usually something people cant smell

also

not smelling it doesnt mean it isnt harmful

[grand void]

are you someone who doesnt touch the supermarket receipt cuz BPA!!!! ?

[hollow fiber]

i have to for work 😔

i religiously use hand sanitizer and wash my hands though but that fucks up my skin

[hollow fiber]

petun
what filament p1s print

[grand void]

pa6/12 cf is probably the peak

@hollow fiber how much are you selling your a1 for?

[hollow fiber]

trying to get at least 330gbp

cuz thats what i paid

u want it?

[grand void]

just for the printer or with ams

[hollow fiber]

combo

[grand void]

im on the fence for one but i dont think it makes sense for me to buy from you when factoring in customs and shippiong

would be 72€ + shipping which would bring the total to well above 400gbp

[hollow fiber]

i meannn if you actually want one dm me some info ill figure out shipping and such

does have a full set of nozzles and a supertack plate

wouldnt do 330 if sold to someone ik ofc

[hollow fiber]

0.2 and 0.4 stainless
0.4 0.6 and 0.8 hardened

[lapis nova]

ya anything below nylon basically

[hollow fiber]

👍

i only plan to do like... asa max lol

[lapis nova]

light work

[grand void]

wait you dont wanna put cater through the same nylon hell?

[lapis nova]

It can print nylon and below

i have photo proof kek

[grand void]

i could theoratically speaking print pps-cf

but at 150€ for 1kg its eh

[hollow fiber]

fuck nylon

mid

maybe ill try abs

idk what for tho

[lapis nova]

gyatt

if u die of PLA fumes…abs isn’t for you

[grand void]

if pla fumes are too much then even asa isnt for him

damn my pla print actually warped lol

[hollow fiber]

i get no fumes cuz proper ventilation
