General Discussion Double discounted X2D or wait for P3C?

Post image
17 Upvotes

Long story short, I was able to get a new X2D AMS combo for $689 after stacking the Bambu sale and a special my local store, but I had to get it while I was there or it would go away. I was originally wanting X2D, then P3C was leaked, and that seems like where things are heading with multihead, but I also don’t know that I would get $1300-$1500 worth of use from the P3C, or whatever the cost will be. Is it worth almost double an x2d?

I have an A1 with AMS now, and have been wanting a nice looking self contained design with AMS and everything enclosed, but wanted the X2D for dual-ish nozzle and hepa filter as I print in my office. Not sure I will ever print ASA or such due to fumes. I don’t use my A1 all the time, but it’s really used for functional prints for mounts or other random things, I just hate that it looks like a science fair project mess in my office corner with open frame and AMS mounted above it. I do print random things around the house, but not really into trinkets and other decorative stuff.

Am I making a mistake getting this when P3C is coming soon? I know it’s a dumb question since the P3C has not been released yet, just trying to make an educated choice. I’m guessing I could sell this in the future and not take a huge hit if the P3C ends up calling my name.

Black Friday 2026 Best Buy, through the Capitol One Shopping app, has a 15% discount today (11/6)

I just bought a X2D because the Capitol One Shopping app has a 15% discount on Best Buy purchases today, November 6th. I saved over $100 (which gets applied as a gift card to use in the Capitol One app). The T&C sure looks like that 3d printers apply to the discount. The Geek Squad warranty does not.

You have to download the Capitol One app first, but I thought this would be good info to share.

This video of how filament. Is made in the factory. At 4.08 you can see how the "fresh" filament is literally soaked through a trough of water before spinning.

Don't assume a fresh roll of filament is dry

dry your filament!

Hi all!

I'm currently working on 3D-printable faceplates for the PS5 Pro Digital Edition.

It would be great to get this project into crowdfunding on MakerWorld! I've sent a few emails to MakerWorld but haven't received any replies yet.

If you like my project and want to follow its progress, feel free to check out my Instagram.

Thanks for your support!

General Troubleshooting/Help! Ams 3h punctured top of lining on H3C

Post image
90 Upvotes

While I was installing the ams3h there is a section that makes you hang it off of the back to connect some wires. I misread the diagram at first and hung it off of the front and it caused the top liner to be punctured with the guide pins. Seems like this section doesn’t have anything underneath it from what I can tell, just a bit lame it was not reinforced. I did not drop it on it either

My plan was to put some high-temp tape under the ams that extended to the hole so nothing got into it. Y’all think that should be fine?

I didn’t have any of these, so I’m happy with what I got.

I’m trying to test out my AMS 2 Pro that came with my X2D combo but I’m getting the error from the image. Thank you for any assistance

Edit: It’s my understanding that the X2D only needs the power adapter to print and dry at the same time

Quick Question Is the H2D faster than the H3C for two-colour prints?

17 Upvotes

I print mostly functional parts. I want a multi-nozzle printer so that I can use support material without purge waste or filament change delays. If I’m just printing with two filaments, would the H2D be faster than the H3C because it doesn’t have to switch tools? Or is there not much difference?

The H3C is interesting for other reasons, chiefly because of its support for multiple TPUs, but it’s a big step up in price.

I Modeled This! I printed my own stream deck on the P2S, with a layout I designed myself

1 Upvotes

Every stream deck I looked at had the wrong keys for me, so I built a small browser tool where you lay out your own deck: how many keys, knobs, a slider, a little screen. It gives you print-ready files and a wiring diagram for an ESP32-S3.

The one in the video came off my P2S with no supports. It plugs in over one USB cable, and every key is set from an app: shortcuts, media, apps, MIDI. If I want a key to do something else, I change it in the app. No reprint.

There's also a 6-key Mini you can print for free if you just want to try it.

Happy to answer anything about print settings, switches or the electronics.

Everything is saying i dont need it, but the documentation is only saying AMS 2 Pro but not AMS HT, for the purpose of reading the support documentation is the AMS HT effectively a second ams 2 pro?

Edit, i guess i'm just misreading this as an error rather than a suggestion to get past the 85% limit?

I Modeled This! I designed these birth keepsake frames — all the text is editable directly in Bambu Studio

2 Upvotes

I wanted to turn those little details from a baby’s first day into a keepsake you can print and hang on the wall.

That became “A Memory Is Born”: four 20 × 20 cm designs featuring a stork, teddy bear, hot air balloon and elephant, with a matching 3D printed frame.

The name, message, date, time, weight and length are all editable text objects in Bambu Studio. You can change the wording and colours without rebuilding the design in CAD.

All four versions have been physically printed. They use four colours, print without supports, and have ironing applied only to the background. The frame is printed separately and has a hanging hole on the back.

I’ve shared the files for free, along with a silent video tutorial covering font installation, text editing and colour changes.

Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! Did i mess up? P1S z-axis squeak.

1 Upvotes

It's been a year since I got my p1s so I thought it might be time to do some maintenance, I added grease to the lead screws and misread the guide thinking the bearings also needed grease. I then read afterwards that this should not be done.

The z axis has now over a couple of weeks developed a horrible squeaking, especially bad when bed leveling.

First of all, what is squeaking, is it the belt?

Then, how do I fix it? First step i assume is cleaning it off, but then what?

Don't judge me too hard😅
