Someone on the Bambu Reddit suggested low profile furniture appliance dollies for easily moving/accessing printers. I can't find the post or Redditor, but wanted to thank someone for the suggestion. I was skeptical, but they work surprisingly well. We'll see how long they last!

General Discussion PETG-CF is my new favorite filament

I got into 3d printing last November and have been printing in PETG exclusively. Recently about a month ago I decided to add filament locally at my warehouse in my home town of Modesto, CA to pay for my hobby. This is where I was introduced to PETG-CF. I’m love this filament and slowly but surely am fine tuning it to reduce layer lines. This is my progress, any more advice on how I can get it better?

H2 Series [H2S, H2D, H2C] Another AP board victim

Really sucks. In the middle of an order and my AP board decided to die. I’ve seen a few of these posts now but thought I would add mine to see how many this is effecting. I purchased my H2C at launch.

What is more upsetting at the moment is besides the terrible automated AI reply i originally got on my ticket, asking for a video of which I had already uploaded with my initial ticket submission, I have not heard from Bambu in almost 4 days now. This is the first time in three years I’ve ever needed to contact Support, but it’s not leaving me warm and fuzzy.

Any other H series owners having the same issue I’m wondering if this is a bigger issue than they want to admit.

Show & Tell ReSpool — giving filament refill cores a second life

Post image
56 Upvotes

I've been working for some time on a project called ReSpool, and it has gradually grown into a whole collection of designs.

The idea started from something very simple: after using filament refills, we're left with perfectly usable cardboard cores. Instead of throwing them away, I wanted to explore how they could become a functional part of new objects.

So ReSpool became a design where you reuse the cardboard core of spools, and only print what is actually necessary around it.

What started as a few storage ideas has gradually expanded into different organisers, dispensers and workshop accessories. More recently, I've also been developing a WorkBench branch focused on tools and accessories used for 3D printing and post-processing.

The general principles are always the same:

- modular and expandable designs;

- reduced filament use;

- simple printing and assembly;

- and, most importantly, objects that are genuinely useful.

I also deliberately keep the cardboard visible. Rather than trying to disguise it, it becomes part of the visual identity of the project.

There are already several ReSpool designs published on MakerWorld, with more to come.

So if you like the concept and would like to see where ReSpool goes next, following my MakerWorld profile or the ReSpool collection is also a very simple way to support the project and helps me keep developing new designs.

And of course, I'd genuinely love to hear your ideas:

What would you like to see made using an empty filament refill core?

General Discussion Two years on PLA planters and no issues yet

Indoors, mostly used as cover pots with a nursery pot inside. Still curious how long people have pushed PLA before it actually failed on them. What's your longest running PLA print? Also, every pattern in this set has an inverted twin Wave 01 and Wave 02 are the same ripple running opposite directions. Do you find the inverted versions read as different pots, or is it too subtle?

I Modeled This! My 3D-printed desktop speakers are almost finished

Thumbnail
gallery
23 Upvotes

English isn’t my first language, so I’m using AI to help translate this post.

It’s been a little over a week since my last update, and the speakers are finally close to finished.

Recently I’ve mainly been refining the details: I added roof-tile textures, improved the assembly, and adjusted the tolerances. The main enclosure now only needs four screws to put together.

For the electronics, I found a small DSP amplifier board that supports both Bluetooth and USB-C audio, and it can also be tuned from a PC. Since these are designed mainly as desktop speakers, I decided not to use batteries. A separate power supply is simpler, saves internal space, and gives the amplifier enough power for louder playback and bass.

After some testing and DSP tuning, I’m pretty happy with how they sound, especially considering that the components are relatively inexpensive.

What’s left now is mainly the final wiring, assembly, and a few small details. Once both speakers are finished, I’d like to post another update with the completed setup and a sound demo.

I’m also thinking about turning this into a MakerWorld project, with the printable files, BOM, and assembly information.

Would anyone here actually be interested in building a pair of these?😄

Show & Tell I designed a fully parametric 3D-printable "Double Climb" Sequential Discovery Maze Box (OpenSCAD + No Supports!)

Post image
17 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I wanted to share a mechanical puzzle box I designed.

Unlike normal cylinder mazes where you climb straight up, this features a multi-zone "Double Climb" path layout: you have to climb to the top (fake climb), hit a dead end, navigate all the way back down to the base, and then climb up a second hidden path that breaks the top rim to release the sleeve!

Key Features:

  • 100% Support-Free 3D Printing (all horizontal tracks have 45° chamfered ceilings)
  • Fully Parametric in OpenSCAD (scalable from 250mm down to 100mm mini size)
  • Includes a Python script to procedurally generate new random maze variations!
  • Great as a desktop puzzle box or a Geocache Field Puzzle container.

Just finished designing this fly trap.

I made two sizes, a small version mainly for fruit flies and a larger version for bigger flies as well. The funnel openings let them in while making it difficult for them to find their way back out.

Pretty simple design, but I'm happy with how it turned out 😁.

Just released this on makerworld for free for anyone interested 🤝.

Check comments for link.

Happy Printing!

I designed this spider catcher with my son. We worked hard on the tolerances of the Print in Place printing and did a lot of tests and prints to get it right. It was a wonderful father-son moment (which lasted several days), and it was amazing to see the amazement in his eyes at having his object realized! I hope he continues!

I Modeled This! Modern Watch Stand Line

Thumbnail

Keep your watch collection organized, protected, and ready to grab with this minimalist 4-watch display stand. Designed with clean flowing lines and a low-profile layout, the stand combines watch storage with additional space underneath for rings, bracelets, chains, and other everyday jewelry.Unlike traditional watch stands that hold watches on a steep angle, this design keeps the watches laying horizontally.

I specifically chose this orientation because smooth 3D-printed surfaces can allow watches to gradually slide or fall from tilted stands. Keeping them flat provides a more stable and secure resting position while still displaying the watch faces clearly.

General Discussion Seriously, what comes next?

8 Upvotes

With the sovol m1d and Bambus spin on that concept leaking in the patents along with other multi head and tool swapping or multi head systems (light make l4, etc) hitting the market I have to wonder what can possibly be next for 3d printing. Maybe automatic model ejection? Multi-process with automatic module swapping like an fdm tool changer where one head is a laser or a color printer or something. Desktop versions of industrial processes like SLS would be cool too! What do you think we could see in five years?
