What 3D printer should I order and lets put some files here

[krisacero]

@hunt_ak So you can do it manually if you have a single color printer, but a lot of people with the Bambu Labs printers use their AMS system for automatic color changes. I have one on my H2C and frankly, it's a dream to use.

[hunt_ak]

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.

[krisacero]

@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

@mr_acero The issue is if the part is laying face down on the plate it won't let me print on the front. I have searched for help but no luck

[hunt_ak]

Myself and Mr @stevepep are gonna be printing fools before long I hope! Sounds like we've got a resident expert in our midst as well!

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

[Stevepep]

@Navy-Chief is there a peptide for this

[hunt_ak]

@Stevepep BPF-247

Buying Printer Filament - 24hrs/Day, 7days/wk

Microdosing recommended but it seems most don't follow this standard protocol for BPF-247

@ResearchCat Thats the one but buy direct from bambulab.

If you can spend a bit more and get a bigger print volume (and have the room) https://us.store.bambulab.com/products/a1?from=navigation

and if you just wanna blow some money anything in the H series is great.

I love my Bambu A1 mini and have been wearing it out. lol I know at some point in the future, I will get a bigger printer.

[Stevepep]

@afkar7 mine arrives today

Cool. I got the combo because I wanted multiple spool holders for multiple print projects and not have to worry about changing the color during printing. I also have so much more to learn with 3-D printing and creating my own work.

[Stevepep]

@afkar7 I may have to add that, or who knows, buy the X series or something bigger in the future. I have enough saved for a month of printing. LOL

[hunt_ak]

Gobs of matte SUNLU filament headed my way based off @krisacero recommendation. Printer and supplies will show up next week. Hoping the A1 comes with everything to get started.

[Stevepep]

@krisacero my first print this is amazing and perfect.

[WisGal64]

Are you all going to be selling your creations somewhere?

[Stevepep]

@WisGal64 Its so easy you can buy this printer for $200 it will pay for itself with a couple of 3d prints. Making a BAC case today so eveything in my house is going to get way more organized lol
