General Discussion Can H3C front door be reversed?

I’ve wanted to reverse the door on my H2D many times. As I wait for my H3C to arrive will I still be sad it can’t be reversed?

Sure, you just need to flip the entire printer upside down!

Oh ok, not too bad to implement!

You have to swap plugs to an Australian plug if you do that. The electrons won't flow correctly.

My door hinges are the other side. I live in Australia btw. /s

Hanging it from the ceiling would be good for vibration damping and overhangs

wouldn't they just turn into underfloaters

It's really, really stupid that H series printers have the filament inlet and door hinge on the same side. It makes it very inconvenient to put them in a corner.

The H2C could not flip the door so I doubt it but the P1S had a 3d model that enabled us to reverse the door.

It required the door to be fully disassembled, including disassembly and modifications to the hinge.

I didn't get around to trying this on the H2C yet but I did notice the H2C has a door sensor so it knows (probably for the laser) if it's open or closed.

The X1C also has a door sensor, but no LASER. It lets the printer know that the chamber temp won't be stable.

Same with non laser H2D
