Affordable DLP resin printers are also now a thing, relative small form factor but deceptively good for their on paper resolution (concensus is that a 1080 dlp is similar quality to a 6-8k of the same size). They last about 5-10x the amount of time an LCD does and the lamp replacement is significantly cheaper. And they consume less electricity.

loving poo poo I think one of the vat bolts on this Mono X is cross threaded too. They don't even sell this model any more, it may be time to upgrade as I thought. A shame, i just redid the wham bam and have some upgrade parts for it. Maybe a project for someone? Would sell very reasonably if someone here wants to mess around with it, but it comes with no support from me and no warranty expressed or implied beyond what you can con Anycubic into mailing you.

I've been thinking of printing a big bust/head in a transparent resin, but I've never printed something that huge before. If I'm going hollow with it, what orientation would I use for the head? Part of me thinks head down, neck near print plate but I'm wondering if that's going to cause issues with suction... Any ideas?

I’ve been flirting with the idea of building a 350mm^3 Voron. For no reason. I don’t keep my Ender and P1S running constantly, but I love the adult Lego aspect of it… Thread, tell me it’s a stupid idea and I am stupid to do it…

From a car repair post on reddit: It's a giant heat-set insert used for the drain plug of a plastic oil pan (2023 Nissan Rogue). It made me think of this thread.

There is something awesome about seeing a 350mm 2.4 AWD doomcube going so fast (35k accels) it's cooling limited with a cpap. deimos fucked around with this message at 07:05 on Jan 5, 2024 |

I got the double sided smooth PEI plate a few days ago and I'm about 1kg down on it. Adhesion is great. It does seem like it's going to bubble easily based on removing some smaller prints, but even Bambu admit that's the case. Definitely wait for complete cooling to remove any print and then don't pull on the print itself at all. That's extremely fragile compared to the smooth plate on my Mk3, which has over 400 days of print time on it (and on only one side, too).

Wahhh my extremely successful home business is earning me too much money Dat u. Yea, spikes in business kinda suck. It's great to have the actual income but sometimes you are just like "wait, drat, I wanted to just chill and watch TV all day this weekend and now all these people want to pay me money for poo poo AAAUUGGGHHHH god my life is so hard". I like helping my friend out with his business stuff but at the same time after a while it's like"goddamn this mailing poo poo to people who bought it bullshit is for the birds" even though I'm the same idiot who orders poo poo off Amazon on a weekly basis and bitch when it's running late and how it's taking FOREVER (with 2 day shipping) to get here. Whoda thunk that work of any form can be a colossal pain in the rear end?

My gut feeling about how acceptable that seam is depends on how you're actually marketing or presenting it: if it's sold as a TTRPG combat miniature or as a raw model that the owner intends to paint, then gaps aren't a big deal, but if it's sold as a display piece that stands alone then it could use some touching up

Boxing stuff up and shipping is def the biggest pain in the rear end part of selling stuff, it's far more time consuming than the actual printing part lol. The only good part is being able to print the shipping labels at home and just dumping 10-15 boxes at a time into the bin at the post office and leaving. I got some interesting looks walking in a few days before xmas with like 15 boxes while the line was like 30 deep and just dropping them in the bin and walking back out lol

The recipient will be doing painting/finishing on their own for tabletop. If I were to market this, it would definitely be in the tabletop realm as a 'finish it yourself' because I don't have the time, talent, or desire to make this a full-time job and release fully-finished models for RPG or display. My main concern is the parts fitting together well enough that it holds together and gaps are easy to manage for finishing with miliput, etc.

Apparently there was a bug with flow calibration in the new Bambu P series firmware. A new patch firmware was released that fixed it. Might need to power cycle your printer to see it.

It shows numbers and a graphic for bed leveling, numbers for vibe calibration, and most importantly for anyone who cares it allows you to turn off all outgoing connections and run the printer in LAN-only mode with SSH support.

Except for the SSH support, doesn't the LAN mode already allow to turn off all outgoing connections? What I would find interesting if it would allow to push the nozzle temperature to 320 C like the X1E to print PPS. People have already done that by loving with the X1C thermistor, but with firmware access it should be possible to do without compromising operation at lower temperatures. Not mention setting PPS specific filament change etc. nozzle temperatures. Basically copy X1E functionality to X1C, that is. DoLittle fucked around with this message at 23:15 on Jan 5, 2024 |

Now that they've disabled firmware rollback, i wonder if someone's attacking that angle. Probably some sort of MITM attack by using local DNS to force the app and machine to talk to a local server rather than bambu's.
