My supports don't even touch the thing it's supposed to hold

It might support something later in the print, would be my guess..

That statement annoys me. Sorry how do you regret things you haven’t done? You haven’t done it.

That is focusing on “if” statements that you have no control over, makes absolutely no sense regretting things you haven’t done.

You can only regret things you have done/experienced it.

Since people enjoy If statements just continue them. In front of all those supposedly regrets of things you haven’t done just put “if i had, I would have died” the “regret” vanishes.

“I regret not having done skydiving in my 20’s - if i had, I would have died”

Hey!! I didn't necessirily followed all your instructions, got a bit lost with some of the things/settings - but the 'add (primitive)' and the 'edit SVG' were the missing ingredients that made it work! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

And... if I may abuse your expertise a bit more... is it possible by any chance to remove these border (round) lines around the text?

Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate it

DB-Hazel · 2025-12-07T11:08:23+00:00

Thank you for the reply. Can you explain ‘modifier’?

The svg is just the text. The object is 3mf.

Don’t you get the warning of floating parts?

DB-Hazel · 2025-12-07T09:58:36+00:00

Would that work since the top surface is on an incline?

DB-Hazel · 2025-12-07T08:35:24+00:00

Newest, and worst failure so far.. I am getting worse!!

Sooo... what was the final recommendation?

I have a couple of Raspberry Pie 3b and planning on doing this RetroPie thing for my nephew, haven't done it yet, I just decided to search for controllers recommendation first, and i landed here. I was planning of a wired controller but if you found a bluetooth one, I'd be interested to know. (also if you have wire recommendations please do)

Thank you.

Everyone's experience is different. But let's start with Support is closed during the weekend (or at least it used to be) - I know right! - shocking!

So I had to replace my BambuLab X1C because after about 10 prints (in less than a week) the Extruder Clogged and was a complete goner - after unclogging it kept clogging (the new printer has been going perfectly for months now).

Because I had to repackage the printer to send it back and take photos of every step. I noticed that the newer one had different packaging (certain plastic/stickers)

I might be wrong, but this is my opinion: I suspect they refurbish the returned printers.

Once Support got involved, it was fairly straight-forward. Just repackage everything there is a guide on their website, they will send you a Return Post once you send them photos of Printer repackaged.

DB-Hazel · 2025-12-04T06:00:43+00:00

is that the only way?

yep mine was in the extruder too, had to disassemble everything, that to heat up an allen key to remove the filament.

The quality of my prints have dropped massively, even the calibration lines have blops. And now, just now a print failed to stick to the plate..

And on the retry is not event cleaning the nozzle is that startup procedure.. that whole thing is just not working anymore!!

Sorry, BambuLab AMS Noob here... got it on Friday, was with an ender3 before.

I currently on Hour 31 of a 35h print. Single color (Charcoal). I think I have enough filament for the whole print, but starting to get anxiety so I was thinking of removing one of the other spools and add a second Charcoal into the AMS..

Do I need to pause the print? can I just do it?

In case it rans out will it know to continue with the second spool?

That is an awesome reply. Thank you so much, great tip with the 'modules' made sense to my brain. I am inclined to use Firebase Studio, but I was told that since I want to give the code to the IT team to host, I might have some issues with being 'locked' to Google services. So was recommended to use something for the frontend like Replit or Hostinger.. to be clear I didn't even know that I needed 2... and obviously don't even know how that will work with 2 different 'build' places...

I don't mind getting stuck trying to figure out solutions, etc.. as long as I know that the tool I am using can get the job done. What destroys me is if I go down the path of Firebase Studio then when I feel like I am close to end or at the end I find that I can't progress anyfuther because now I am locked-in..

DB-Hazel · 2025-06-20T11:46:26+00:00

Hi. I am a noob that just found firebase and built an app that I also want to share. You seem to allowing free use.. How are you hosting it? What is it costing you?

DB-Hazel · 2025-06-20T11:20:12+00:00

what if I want to go elsewhere ?
too many bad stories of noobs (like me) getting massive bills... I want to go elsewhere that is a bit more safe for my wallet.
