Bambu studio also integrates features from Orca, so the feature comparisons change relatively often and the difference may not always be that big.

Orca has fixes to things that cause print issues in Bambi Slicer and extra features like organic tree supports and more built-in calibration tools. Right now it’s behind Bambu in features since they just released a major new version.

I think already Bambu integrated at least some of the Orca calibration tools already? Could wrong of course.

I've been printing a ton of stuff on my P1P for the holidays. I love this thing, and the AMS has been a game-changer.

I have a P1S and I'm not finding the AMS too useful because I'm not printing multi-material prints. Is there any way to control the AMS without the printer having active internet access? It doesn't seem like there is. Does anyone have an opinion on what caused this stringing on PLA plus?

SO annoying lol that sucks, didn't even notice that in the remix because Differences of the remix compared to the original Split Corner model, added hidden M3 bolt & heat insert holes to attach parts. Also flattened the back of corner & 350 centre parts so they can be printed laying down halving print time & only requiring 5g of supports per corner!

maybe re-run a self calibration or turn speed down a little bit (or maybe temps up a tiny bit).

Hm, does anyone know why travel time is longer (in OrcaSlicer) when you have individual models, compared to assembled ones? Better pathing? I've been curious if there was anything to do about optimizing travel time when printing multiple smaller objects, if there's any gain worth getting there. And when testing, I noticed that having the exact same 17 objects in the same place, travel time dropped by 10% after I assembled them together. That's only 4 minutes on this print, and kinda irrelevant compared to the 6h print time, but I have had prints with 2+ hours of travel time, but even then I guess it only amounts to 1-2% of the print time.

A few times disassembling and reassembling finally got everything to mesh just right. Getting a planetary set like that to be this smooth is pretty wild. Now just printing the rotor and it will be time to get yelled at by the spouse

"well i'm editing someone else's project, this should be fine." No.. it's not. People in 3d printing are fraking idiots. The amount of files that can't be printed without acres of supports, awkward print directions, or prayers is far to high.

Ten thousand times I +1 this. My minimum level of acceptability is a STEP file, and if I can find something with an actual CAD file, I will choose that over any STL file I find on these godforsaken websites.

i would have probably lowered it .2mm or something but i wonder if that would have caused alignment issues with the other parts. I have usable, but ugly (on one side) parts. And i checked the comments, nobody mentioned it to them. In fact, I am going to right now

I have an idea for a Christmas present that will require a lot of small printed coins, each with a different letter embossed on top (not A-Z; there will be some duplicates and some not used). I haven't been able to find any pre-modeled designs that fit the bill, so I'm looking at doing it myself. I created a couple manually in Tinkercad, but it's slow and ugly and is going to take forever. Is there a better way to do this?

PrusaSlicer lets you emboss SVGs and text on models pretty easily, and if you print from a different slicer you can export the STL/3DF

It’s converting something to an SVG that can really suck if you’re not using text. The online converters gave me really poor results. I was pretty happy to find out about 3D Builder because it skips that step.

Inkscape, a free vector graphics editor, is not that hard to use if you're just tracing a single color outline, as your image would have to be for embossing anyway.

Spent enough time playing with the new P1S that I got the fun stuff out of my system finally. Put in the 0.6mm extruder that'll probably live in there forever and started using it to print my occasional Etsy order. My usual 66 gram print that took slightly less than 4 hours (in PETG on a Mk3S+) takes 1 hour in the P1S. It's fast enough that I can get an order at noon, print it, hop on my bike and drop it off at the post office in an hour and a half. That's ridiculous.

Ideally it shouldn't happen, but some polymers (PETG especially) are more prone to stringing than others, and a small amount is usually not an indication that anything is wrong. If you see a ton of stringing, that generally means (in order of likeliness) your hotend is too hot, the plastic has absorbed moisture, or your retraction settings are poorly calibrated. Try dropping down 5 or 10 degrees or drying the filament.

It can be a symptom of indicator of a couple things, but if its just a couple occasional wisps, then it's just 'sometimes my nozzle is a bit leaky.'. If it starts looking like spiderwebs, then you might have an issue you need to calibrate out. Share a pic, but if you're calling it wisps, I imagine it's not a huge issue.

Google Butt posted:Did you keep the layer height the same? Any noticeable quality difference? I have one on the way for my a1 too. Yeah, same basic print profile. 0.3 layers, 10 walls, 5 top/bottom, 100% infill. Quality is actually significantly better. Seams are more noticeable, but I'm going to play with some settings in Orca that might reduce it. This is without doing any flow calibration either, so the quality is likely to improve a bit more regardless.

i have had AMAZING luck taking almost any image (b&w is best) even from the google images thumbnail. Putting it through remove.bg to process it. then taking THAT and going through vectorize.ai I drop it into fusion 360 and hardly ever have to do anything with it. I have many things i translated directly to 3d with this process and printed, i love it.

Cousin's kids are getting some cool dragons for Christmas. I don't know if they'll like them but I like them, so that's what they get. I wish I had a thematically appropriate container but I don't think I have time to print three of the big dragon eggs over the weekend unless I press all my printers into service and I'm not sure about the maker select. These are the print in place Gemstone Dragon from Cinderwing, the model is like $4. Used this filament, it works pretty well with the usual caveat about silk PLA. I had the best results at 220C with 60C on the bed. At 50C on the bed I had some sections get loose so I ended up losing one print to that at like 85% through, and one print to a power outage. The filament isn't as bright as some of the multicolor ones and each roll seems to have about the same color mix which is not what the picture of the rolls shows on amazon, but I printed some from each roll to start on different colors.
