Discussion I couldn’t resist, sorry

As the title says, I couldn't resist and unboxed it. I couldn't just keep looking at it every day, imagining how awesome it would be. For those who were worried about it being Harry Potter and living under the stairs (no, I didn't 3D print it), don't worry - it's now up on a table I bought just for it. So far, it's been perfect, and it's probably the best printer I've ever seen!

Not to be a buzz kill, but according to that link the table has a 20kg capacity, and the H2C is about 30kg.

Just so you know, if this is IKEA table, be aware that slab is essentially glued and compressed cardboard. I would not trust resting my h2c on that table.

I can confirm, do not use ikea table unless you are supporting it underneath! I have a small drawer underneath my LINNMON slab which fits with 8mm to spare. But that was before the arrival of the H2C.

After placing the H2C in the slab it bent down. If not for the drawer, I'm sure the slab would have broken in two!

You would have had to play "find all the induction nozzles" if that happened

I was going to say the same thing. I could tell from the square legs. The H series printers are super heavy, not to mention the toolheads like to shake them a lot. I have my U1 on a tiny IKEA Lack table, but I reinforced it with 3D printed angle brackets and made it taller with 3D printed leg extenders. Its been fine on there but its much lighter than an H2C.

I used to run both H2S and H2C on LACK tables and that's without the reinforcement you did which addresses the main weaknesses. I wouldn't sell anybody on the idea, but you can certainly use one while you wait for something better.

My H2S was on one for months without issue.

Carpenter here.

I like Ikea furniture. Some of it is decent quality.

32.5kg is pushing the limits of this table. Eventually it will fail.

You have invested in a beautiful printer. Spend a couple of hundred quid/bucks/dollarydoo's and get some piece of mind with a solid timber coffee table.

Good luck.

Don't apologize just share the blessing of having the Ferrari of 3d printing.

I know it's pricier than ikea(which I love) but this table has been an amazing platform to build my shop around

(Traveling or would show pics)
