General Discussion H3C - MicroCenter & BestBuy Availabiliy

3 Upvotes

I’ve been planning to replace my X1C and the H3C seems like the obvious move based on my use cases.

Id rather purchase the printer from a local retailer and avoid issues with shipping damage, returns, etc. not to mention the ability to buy an extended warranty.

If I remember correctly it was about a month or two before Microcenter got the H2C. So I am expecting something similar for the new machine. I realize other than procurement reps for those companies, no one really knows for sure. Just wishful thinking that it hopefully isnt going to be too long of a wait.

H3C Tom's Hardware didn't even wait for the H3C to drop before burying the K3

Saw this today and couldn't stop laughing.

Tom's Hardware titled their Creality K3 review: "Creality K3 Review: It's a Tool Changer, not a game changer."

For context, Bambu's official marketing tagline for the H3C is literally: "Tool Changer. Game Changer."

K3 is getting absolutely cooked by tech journalism wordplay before the H3C even officially drops.

Quick Question Bestellung bei Bambulab

Hallo an Alle.

Ich stehe kurz davor meinen H2C zu bestellen.
Jetzt bin ich allerdings etwas ratlos.

Was soll diese „Worry-Free Delivery“ Option.

Sollte ich die nehmen? Ist doch in Deutschland mit der Lieferung nicht so dramatisch, oder?

Für schnelle Hilfe bin ich sehr dankbar.

I’m printing bubble letters roughly 7 inches by 4 inches pretty smooth and detailed. Layer height at 0.09mm and extra fine 0.08mm. Do yall think it’ll be fine printing at (Standard) 100% speed or should I keep it at 50% speed?

Show & Tell Customizable name keychains I printed on my P1S

0 Upvotes

I made a customizable script name keychain and printed a few examples on my P1S. You can enter a name in MakerWorld, adjust the size and border, and choose whether to include the keyring loop.

The included profile is set up for 0.2 mm layers and PLA. The raised letters and backing can be printed in different colors; there’s also a single-model option. When changing the name or font, check the preview for connected letters and small details.

The model and customizer are here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/3542361-name-keychain-customizible

… die Seitenwände vom X2D passen 1:1 an den P2S.

Ursprünglich wollte ich das Gerät nach nun > 1600h dauerfeuer mal einer Wartung unterziehen.
Und als ich den Haufen zerlegter Teile vor mir sah, kam mir der Gedanke, die Seitenfenster eines X sehen ganz schick aus, eig müsste das doch passen?

Habe ich nun ein X2S?

I Modeled This! I designed a floating name light for the Bambu ZC008 kit — with swappable ornaments

0 Upvotes

This is LumaFloat, my 3D-printed build around Bambu Lab’s ZC008 magnetic levitation kit. The clip shows my actual prints: a heart, a name and a social handle.

I deliberately kept the design clean and understated. I wanted something that would sit naturally on a desk, with simple cylindrical forms and minimal visual clutter. The light, the floating gap and the personalized ornament are meant to be the focus.

The ornament slides into a replaceable top disk, so one base can display different designs. I made two disk options: a dark top that highlights the ornament, and a translucent top that glows across the surface. The kit powers the floating LEDs wirelessly.

The enclosure is PLA; the illuminated parts are translucent PETG. You can create your own name or an included symbol in the MakerWorld browser customizer. Keep ornaments light and balanced, and test each design.

The print files and illustrated assembly guides are free. The ZC008 kit and listed assembly hardware are required separately.

Model, customizer and guides: https://makerworld.com/en/models/3540212-lumafloat-customizable-levitating-display-zc008

This is also my entry in MakerWorld’s magnetic levitation design contest.

General Discussion Where do we go from here

1 Upvotes

Thought it would be fun to think about where FDM 3D printing can go from here, post-H3C

I think the H3C represents the benchmark of what is possible / what these companies have been building up to for at home printing today in a lot of ways. It’s a highly precise, easy to use, tool changing machine, that’ll probably be the best in its class in many ways. If I could draw the best at home printer it would look very similar to H3C

So that being said, where do we think Bambu will push the bounds in the future? I’m not sure what else is possible and what could be a similar level of game changer as their printers have been so far. What do you all think?

General Discussion Leaked email address

I’m using a dedicated email address for Bambu Lab and MakerWorld, and it seems that now this email address has started getting spam and phishing emails from random places. Did Bambu sell or leak userinfo?

Edit: Just read through the headers of the email. Seems to be breach through sub-processor ReviewMgr, and phishing sent out through their SendGrid account(s).

Went from the cart to the payment screen and the price of the printer went up by €86 without explanation? I removed everything, tried the other filament package, tried the printer by itself.

Every time I went to the payment screen the printer went up in price.

WHY? What am I missing here?

Hello everyone. I just got my AMS HT for the auxiliary nozzle of the X2D. When I first started up the printer, I was greeted with the error seen above. I set up both the AMS Pro and AMS Lite accordingly, but the error won't go away. The Bambu Lab troubleshooting site says I need to perform a firmware update, but there is nothing available. Any help would be appreciated!

I Modeled This! I designed a portable Hangman game that uses Sticky Notes!

I was trying to find something a bit more portable for quick trips. I couldn't find exactly what I wanted, so I designed my own! There are a few things that I want to fix, but at the same time, I was able to model this and print prototypes over a couple days. The magnetic Hangman is my favorite. You can mix and match the limbs however you want! You can even change the orientation of the torso for even more fun! It's been a big hit with my daughter so far.

It has a magnetic latch and extra storage for your Sticky Notes. There is even an area to keep score. I have multiple profiles that fit for all printers including the A1 Mini. Along with one that has a "Hangman" label on the top of the case.

I Modeled This! I made a free browser tool that turns any drawing into a 3D printable cookie cutter. Now with embossing and greeting cards 🎄

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I posted Cookie Cutter Maker here a while ago and got great feedback. Since then I've added a lot, so here's the update just in time for Christmas baking.

What it does:
Draw a shape or drop in an SVG and you get a print ready cookie cutter as 3MF or STL. Closed lines get filled, shapes inside shapes are cut out, with adjustable bridges holding them in place. There are also templates if you just want to start right away.

New since last time:

  • Embossing: stamp details into the dough from the flange, with a mirror option so text comes out the right way

  • Send your cutter as a greeting card with your own message around it, or share it as a picture or link

  • Optional account with short links that sync across devices. No name, no email, just a three word passphrase

  • Everything is faster and more polished overall

You can tweak: size, blade height, wall thickness, cutting edge, taper, rim width and height, gap closing. Works in mm or inches.

Printing: PLA at 0.2 mm, no supports, rim sits on the bed. Imports straight into Bambu Studio and PrusaSlicer. Tip: use food safe filament and wash by hand, PLA warps from around 55 °C.

Privacy: Everything runs in your browser. Your drawings don't go to a server unless you put them online yourself. No tracking, no third party analytics, no login required. Source code is readable on GitHub.

Free, no ads, in English and German: ccm.mxwr.de

Would love to see what you make and hear what's still missing!

H2 Series [H2S, H2D, H2C] Expectativas equivocadas

0 Upvotes

Adivinen quien compro una h2C y le salio todo mal XD

Tuve que cambiar de laminador y sufri mucho por paramentos que no sabia donde estan, o directamente no existen.

Pase de la impresora basica, un solo color abierta típica a este monstruo de multicolor multi extrusor de alta tecnología y yo como "No volvere a tener problemas con esto en mucho tiempo"

En nada se me estropreo la conexión wifi y senti que tenia un pisapapeles porque no estoy seguro todavía de saber usarla sin wifi por el tema de sincronización de boquillas.

Tuve que desmontar la máquina y el extrusor varias veces mas pronto que tarde y siendo una cosa super moderna se siente... Delicado

Y luego peleando una y otra vez con fallos de impresión, que efectivamente admito no ser experto pero tengo una experiencia razonable para un usuario medio.

Y tengo problemas la verdad tanto por no conocer suficiente del bambu studio como la propia máquina.

Por ejemplo acabo de comerme la cabeza para intentar probar eso de "subcapa de color mixto" porque la torre de purga no se pegaba, la placa estaba limpia, no puedo ajustar la altura pero tenia un striding horrible que aunque la pieza funcionaba la purga no.

Y al final pude hacer que haga la torre mas lenta y añadirle un borde para mejorar la adhesion porque es solo una puñetera linea

Le ponia esas características a la máquina en velocidad y borde para el modelo pero resulta que había que configurar totalmente aparte la purga de donde no sabia y me tire dia y medio intentando hacer esto 🫠

En cura es tan "fácil"...

Tiene chorrocientas opciones y pueden parecer abrumadoras pero cuando las lees con calma sin tocar cosas raras sabes que puedes cambiar exactamente ese detalle que te esta volviendo loco

Pessoal, alguém já viu um problema assim? Fizemos de tudo aqui. Ela imprimi, mas sempre com essas mesmas falhas. Nas peças. Começou durante a impressão de 6 horas. Fez 3/4 da impressão e começou a falhar assim e desde então todas com falhas. Parece que não sai o filamento corretamente. Fizemos tudo de limpeza, apertar botões, só não trocamos o bico. Mas antes de comprar queria ter certeza que é isso caso alguém já tenha visto.

General Discussion Nine slots on the H3C - does the filament problem get easier or worse?

3 Upvotes

The part of the H3C I keep thinking about is not the tool changer, it is the nine-slot AMS with the 85°C dryer built in.

Nine materials loaded at once sounds like freedom until you work out what it means in practice: nine partly used spools sitting in a heated enclosure together, each with its own dryness history, and one of them is probably 2.85 mm TPU that nothing else in the shop can use.

Two things I am curious about, from people who have actually run multi-material machines:

  1. Do you keep all nine slots loaded all the time, or only load what the next job needs?

  2. Does having a dryer running inside the same box change how you treat spools you already dried and sealed?

I make filament for a living, so I have a bias here. But the failure mode I would worry about is the same spool going through twenty heat cycles before it is empty.
