What 3D printer should I order and lets put some files here
-
No Microcenter up here in the far north. I may try to just get the A1 mini and dabble until I need to upgrade. Seem reasonable enough? I'd assume you can still do lots before upgrading...
-
@hunt_ak those links I posted can all be printed on the A1. The limitation I think is the height of the project. The A1 only goes up to 7 inches which seem ok to me
-
@Stevepep yeah those are super rad. I’ll have to figure out how Randy is printing the image in the top but a course in YouTube university will likely demystify it. I’m gonna grab one. Mrs Hunt_AK is gonna be THRILLED!
-
@hunt_ak Been watching YouTube videos all morning. Work is getting in the way. I don't know how he gets the print on top. The projects are endless though if you go on makers
@Stevepep Getting the prints on the top are pretty straightforward and you can do it right in the slicer. If you're using Bambu Studio, click the part, go to the Text tool, then I typically select the option to "Add as a Modifier" then change the filament for that part so you get the color difference.
I did a bunch of containers for a Nexaph order for the freezer and labeled the tops, kinda just cuz.

@kristoferfriers Thanks so much I didnt see that file for those containers can you add that one.

@mr_acero way too cool! I assume you'd need that upgrade kit to print multiple colors like that. That seems like a non-negotiable...l need it!

That H2C looks incredible! I may need to dip my toe in the shallow end before driving that muscle car.
It looks like your black cases above are using matte filament. Is that correct?
Now looking at the A1 and not the mini.
@hunt_ak Yeah, Matte PLA. I particularly like the Sunlu High Speed PLA for most prints. Pretty inexpensive and makes nice looking parts.
If anyone is looking for another print, I just finished designing this one and published it just now. Since both of us are researching a few things, we tend to stock up on pen tip needles so this fits about 300 tips and just about a box of prep pads:

Thanks for the tip! I'll grab some of that. Pulled the trigger on an A1, not the mini. More to come

This is a deep rabbit hole to explore, welcome to the asylum!
