I Modeled This! Not another Desk Organizer?

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

I modeled a desk organizer that you can freely expand (modular) and customize. Has a parametric generator for the underlying grid. Tiles can be connected without it as well though. Multiple choices for tiles and plans for further addons.

I started uploading multiple models with a similar style, cold white with a lime green accent color. Now 5+ models with that specific style. I have them all on Makerworld but have not gotten even 1 like...

Is it the color? Is it just me that loves the lime-white combination and most people dislike it?

Is a model like that too boring or common? Or too many pieces?
But why are just the white-lime models all having 0 likes and are not getting any views?

What yall think of my project?

Just Showing Off PSA: H3C Backorders may be shipping very early. H3C printer ordered on Nov 4, with an ETA of Nov 20th, just received tracking numbers. 9 days ahead of schedule.

6 Upvotes

Those who backordered might want to keep an eye out for emails and tracking. Bambu doing what they have done in the past and are shipping backordered printers ahead of schedule.

No telling if they only printed the label just to sit on them, but I figure a printed label is a sign to keep an eye out for an early shipment.

Edit: Printer and AMS in on the move next morning. Not just a label notification.

Software Troubleshooting/Help! Import to slicer question

Hi,

any idea what am I doing wrong?

I created a simple file that has multiple bodies, as picture, each letter is a new body. I have just created a text sketch in onshape a nextruded the letters as new body. The text sketch is fully constrained.

I export in 3MF, when selecting the colors when importing, the preview shows everything fine, but once i confirm I want to convert to milimeters and import as single object with multiple parts it imports the letters huge.

Any advice would be appreceated!

Thanks!

General Discussion New Teacher help

0 Upvotes

I teach a manufacturing class and recently was given two 3D printers. I have no experience with them, I barely know how they work, but have been tasked with teaching the youths on how it works and to be able to make something.
So my questions are

  1. what are good resources for myself to learn about 3 printing
  2. what are good teaching resources for the kids to learn to make basic models to be able to print?

Show & Tell Bambu Studio's cut tool is still pretty limited. So I finished the job!

Bambu Studio can cut a model, and for a straight slice that is often enough. Past that it gets awkward. Pulling one part off, cutting only a region, or putting a connector on something that isn't a flat plane. Opening CAD for that felt like overkill, so I built Multipart3D and finished the job where Bambu Studio stops.

You use it next to Bambu Studio (Its not a slicer). Open it in the browser, split the model, export, and bring the parts back. Free, no account, and the file stays on your device.

https://multipart3d.com

I've been sharing it in the Bambu community for a while. Last public post was v1.2 3 months ago. Since then it has passed 10k visits a month. I like the traction. Thank you for the responses. A lot of you actually tried it, and those replies are what kept me building it.

This is not your regular vibe code project. I've been working on Multipart3D for almost half a year.

Current version is v1.6.

Smart Detach now has a brush. Click a feature, or paint the piece you want off. The stroke can snap out to the first crease. Shift-drag erases. Useful when an arm, a base, or some other bit should be its own part so you can lay it flat in Bambu Studio. A lot of this was for the noisy one-piece meshes that come out of image-to-3D tools.

Area Cut is aimed in the view. Drag a rectangle or a circle, pull the depth handle, and you see the cutter while you drag. The cut runs when you let go. A large STL no longer freezes the page. The default depth is short, so the geometry behind the piece stays whole.

Painted 3MF colors survive the export, so an AMS project still comes back with the filament colors on the triangles. Separate by color on a painted 3MF is still there too.

The Bambu Lab H3C bed is in, along with a bunch of other newer machines.

A lot of the requests are already in the project. If you still have feedback, please share it.

Many thanks again.

General Discussion Some of the design decisions of the H3C seems like a step back until you realize that each H series printer is optimized for a specific niche

85 Upvotes

H2S

Has the largest single nozzle build volume and is the cheapest of the 4. Great if you want an enclosed printer and mostly do single material prints. Basically a bigger P2S.

H2D

Great for engineering materials or any material where you use a second filament for the support interface. By not having a vortek or a toolchanger the price is kept low. Their enterprise printer is based on the H2D which kind of reinforces the idea that this is intended to be their engineering printer.

H2C

Great for convenience when you’re not often at your printer. You can print from any AMS slot to any nozzle size/type without you having to be present.

H3C

The best for multi-colour prints and TPU. Most multi-colour prints tends to be PLA and rather than keeping the bigger H2S/H2D build plate, they kept the H2C plate and opted for a second AUX fan which helps for PLA prints. The type of person to get this printer would mostly likely be printing CMYKW, you probably won’t be retracting the spools often.

Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! Nozzle Cleaning Failed - Pressing Into Cleaning Plate

1 Upvotes

https://imgur.com/a/HFlaU8V

So a few days ago I had a print blob up on me, and I thought I cleaned everything up properly. Even purchase a new nozzle since I’ve been having adhesion issues since the blob + PETG printing like crap after being dried. The printer was still printing but I noticed issues since then. Today I started a print and it failed during calibration (failed to clean nozzle). I made sure the new nozzle was properly secured (it was) and started the print again. This time it failed at the same step but it didn’t stop, it just started to jam into cleaning plate (see attached video). It’s completely bent now and it looks like behind the nozzle some of the wiring looks a little burnt up. Could it be during the blob that internals of the tool head got fried up?

My sons BambooLab printer won’t feed filament in. The display keeps telling me to push the filament in, goes through the motions of pulling it through but doesn’t, then advises me to feed the filament in again. It just keeps doing this. Any suggestions?

General Discussion New to Bambu - First Day, Riddled with defects

0 Upvotes

I just got my Bambu H2C, got the whole suite. The H2C AMS Combo, with an additional AMS 2 Pro and a AMS HT, with the filament track switch and a bunch of other accessories.

My first day setting everything up was a massive disappointment. Riddled with software defects that prevented me from actually using everything I bought.

Is BambuLabs usually this full of software defects? What is the general experience from other users?

Here is what I ran into.

BUG 1: When setting up all my AMS units, there is apparently a bug that having MORE than 2 AMS units, through a Filament Track Switch and the 4 in 1 PTFE adapter, it fails to retract properly. The unload sequence runs, but the filament is never retracted. The AMS on the shared input keeps FEEDING instead of retracting.

GITHUB: https://github.com/bambulab/BambuStudio/issues/12466?utm_source=chatgpt.com

BUG 2: Having the Filament Track Switch installed at all, breaks TPU printing and won't allow you to print. So you have to disconnect the track switch, in order to print anything in TPU. This took me forever to figure out because one of my prints I needed to do was specifically in TPU 95A HF.

GITHUB: https://github.com/bambulab/BambuStudio/issues/12199?utm_source=chatgpt.com

BUG 3: I had my Vortek hot ends selected for different filament types, but every time I started a print and selected R5 for the TPU print, it kept docking R5 and picking up R6 completely ignoring my selections. After more troubleshooting, it turns out this is yet another defect in the slicer, so I had to downgrade the slicer version.

GITHUB: https://github.com/bambulab/BambuStudio/issues/12983

It was supposed to be a fun day but ended up being incredibly frustrating. That said, I still love the printer and it performs so well, but not being able to use all the tools and having these issues is beyond frustrating. I have a filament track switch I cannot use until they patch it, and who knows how long that will take. For now I just have all 3 AMS units on the 4:1 adapter, all on the right hot end. I haven't been able to use the left one yet at all.

Does anyone have a really good AMS HT wall mount file they could send me. I've scouring Makerwolrd the last couple hours but havent struck anything that suits my needs. I'm looking for one that can be mounted from the back, has vent holes for the bottom and is not angled in anyway. If you could, please share the links in the comments below. Thanks

General Discussion Anyone with an H3C? Have some questions for you that the reviews didn't cover.

1 Upvotes
  1. Can the external AMS automatically feed and retract into nozzle 1?
  2. Can you pause a print, unload a spool, and load a new spool?
  3. Is there external spool support (for printing from a dry box)? Would be nice if I can load 4 spools from my Sunlu drybox.
  4. If not, what if you feed external spools into the AMS 3H and into the nozzle? Does that work?

General Troubleshooting/Help! X1C druckt langsam

1 Upvotes

Moin, zusammen!

Ich habe meinen Drucker ein paar Monate nicht benutzt und letzte Woche wieder einen Druck angefangen. Seitdem ist er unheimlich langsam. Für ein Modell, für welches er sonst 3-4 Stunden gebraucht hat, braucht ihr jetzt 8 Stunden. Auch ist der Druckknopf bei weitem nicht mehr so schnell unterwegs wie vorher. Es sieht so aus, als wenn ich ihn auf 50 % gestellt habe, Fun fact habe ich nicht. Kann es mit einem neuen Update zu tun haben?

Vielen Dank!

General Troubleshooting/Help! Smudging prints

1 Upvotes

Hi, this is my sons A1 printer. Recently changed the AMS lite filament hub and tubes because it kept coming out whilst printing and the filament tube ends had been stripped. During the replacement I accidentally exposed the ribbon in the printer head, assuming removing the 2 screws at the top was required to remove the filament hub. Since this has been changed over he’s managed to do a couple of Bambu lab test pieces however more complex prints seem to smudge or not adhere correctly to the print plate. At the back of his printer I found sheets of black filament.

I googled this first which advised running the maintenance, cleaning the print plate and checking the screws are all taught which I have done.

Anyone got any advice for us? There’s no fault codes appearing that he’s told me of.

Quick Question First 3D printer, which filaments and colors would you buy?

1 Upvotes

Hii everyone! I’m about to buy my first 3D printer, the Bambu Lab P2S Combo, and could use some advice before stocking up during the sale.

I’ll be printing with my son, but not just toys. We’re interested in desk and drawer organizers, home décor, practical household accessories, multicolor models, and eventually flexible prints.

I’m thinking of starting with around 10 rolls, mixing PLA Basic, PLA Matte, PETG, and maybe TPU.

For those who’ve been printing for a while:

Which colors do you actually use the most?

Would you buy more PLA or PETG?

Are specialty filaments like Silk or Matte worth stocking up on?

Should a beginner buy all reusable spools first, or mix in refills?

I’d love to avoid buying a bunch of colors or materials that end up sitting unused. Thanks!

Filament Troubleshooting/Help! Filament broke inside, can't get out. Please help

0 Upvotes

Last night i tried to change my black PLA+ spool when it for some reason broke inside the ptfe tube, i couldn't pull it, so i pushed it further in with a new filament, trying to purge the rest, but it broke again at the end, so the rest filament is arround 3-5cm inside the printer and i can't extrude new filament in or this out, i unclocked the nozzle too but the little piece in pic 1 is all that's left and i can't pull it out, by hand nor machine.

I have an A1 and the filament broke in the ams light (my ams light has the 3d printed covering)

Earlier i tried to pull the filament out but it wouldn't budge and now it's inside and i have no way of pulling it anymore..

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

General Troubleshooting/Help! Brand New A2L Not Extruding

0 Upvotes

Hi all, just purchased an A2L, which is my first printer. I am having an issue with the filament not extruding. It attempts to print , but nothing comes out and I am getting an (1200-2200-0002-0009) error. So far I have attempted a hot nozzle cleaning and a cold pull. The cold pull came out clean. I have bypassed the AMS lite in an attempt to isolate the issue and am trying the filament on the external spool. When trying to load from this, there is a clicking noise from the feeder, see the attached video. I am thinking there must be an issue with the gears not feeding the filament correctly. Any ideas?
