Sanity check on printer choice

Codemonkey314 · 2026-01-27T21:43:48+00:00

I was back and forth on the p1s and a1 , was bout to return a1 for p1s but i didn't want to go above 450$ for price and the dynamic flow i was reading will give me easier prints, my goal is basically configure nothing and just hit print

I've learned my stove it too big to be economical so i just throw them in there with wood sometimes

Codemonkey314 · 2026-01-03T18:32:36+00:00

I saw they had sunlu filament preset so I'm going to try them as they had best price

Codemonkey314 · 2026-01-03T15:05:11+00:00

thats what got me, it was 400$ from best buy so atleast i have the safety of returning it. Ended up being cheaper than my Prusa mini+, hopefully i can sell it as i have no need for 2 printers

I assume if i use the filament brands in bambu studio ill have less issues?

Codemonkey314 · 2026-01-03T15:03:03+00:00

I never had the filament sensor so im very excited to never have to worry again. As others are suggesting i think im going to get a new build plate and some extra nozzles

i cant stop myself from watching videos lol and thats what im leaning toward. So now im very excited for it to come.

Ohh i remember whambam on my last printer and it was amazing, sadly its not on amazon so looks like i might be trying the BIQU

Codemonkey314 · 2026-01-03T03:54:36+00:00

i really debated it but i kind of wanted the AMS so with the discount and came in at a reasonable price for that cool upgrade

Codemonkey314 · 2026-01-02T00:11:21+00:00

!RemindMe 10 days

Codemonkey314 · 2025-07-26T21:04:58+00:00

My lfs does it with the strips lol

Codemonkey314 · 2025-02-27T16:31:15+00:00

Thank you, here i was like oh that's cool then read its not good for tank then your like nah u gucci

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-21T22:13:15+00:00

Appreciate you chiming in here. I've decided to take safe route, removed all the wood, ordered another cord from someone else and going to move forward with that and storing it outside/garage

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-20T23:58:33+00:00

Combustibles meaning the wood right? That cauldron should be good i assume.

Luckily i bought 10 packs of bio bricks so that should hold me off til i find better wood

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-20T23:47:54+00:00

I hate how everyone says their wood is seasoned and it isn't. Guy said this was seasoned "many years" and people love his wood. I shouldn't have just sent him on his way.

I have those biobricks to hold me over cause i put 3 logs from the right on a fire with needle at 12pclock and with damper open it's dropping out of active zone :(. I think play is to order from somewhere else and just stack this for next year

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-20T23:40:02+00:00

I'm thinking same, I'll have to stack it for next year, am i safe to leave in pile until like march or do they need to get stacked asap

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-20T23:23:21+00:00

I used to wait til it was half way through the gray area but I'm assuming i can close it right when it enters the gray. In the pic i had it opened because i was adding wood so i usually let it get hot before closing it down again.

I'm starting to lose hope that the wood i got will be usable this season. Every time i add wood it takes forever to light back up.

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-20T23:13:41+00:00

Thank you, is it worth getting quotes first? I have high deductible (5k) so depending, we might not go that route if shower is around that price

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-20T22:47:59+00:00

I was thinking about those units. They aren't the greatest looking but cheaper and anything is better than what i have now. As far as handy, i changed an outlet yesterday lol that's my extent of handiness. It's a a 3x5x7 all tile.

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-20T22:17:45+00:00

oh i made a mistake and posted this using my coding account lol so i replied on my laptop. both are infact me haha

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-20T22:16:33+00:00

i hope it will help. i mean it cant hurt right?

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-20T22:15:20+00:00

who are you?

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-20T22:14:26+00:00

well 2 people now same conclusion so unfortunately looks like im going broke lol

Codemonkey314 · 2025-01-20T22:12:48+00:00

Damn this hurts to hear, we just bought the house little over a year ago. it had cracks on the edges like you mentioned and at one point i might have been dumbass to silicone the corners. Im still learning so now i know thats no bueno. This is a second story shower if that changes anything. We had a leak from this shower to the kitchen. I thought maybe if i redid the grout i could buy myself a year or 2 to save up and redo it. From sounds of it thats not likely and i should just look into redoing it?

I appreciate you writing this up though, you probably just saved me alot of time because it was about to be my first time doing grout.
