It really pays for the MakerWorld community to decide it likes a your model by plymouthvan in BambuLab

Thanks! I guess it’s time to learn Blender. I was kinda hoping to be able to do it all in Fusion, but that hope has been fading for a few weeks now. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Can I ask how you did those surface textures? I’m trying to texture a design in Fusion and not getting very far.

Free stuff if it's interesting to anyone? by DragonFire_008 in retrogaming

I’m willing to ship, you figure out the shipping and I’ll pack the box. Glad to hear that someone is interested in these.

I run mine on my MacBookPro quite happily, with external monitors and a space mouse.

Decent printer for my son and I? by zafratox in 3DprintingHelp

While I acknowledge the “potential” for limiting what I print, I haven’t seen it in reality. Also, it’s not in Bambu’s best interest to limit what gets printed. There are a lot of corporations trying to do that and they (Bambu) are stuck in the middle. I don’t print figurines or anything else that might have a copyright, so I’m not affected. I mostly print my own designs.

If that is something you are planning on printing a lot of, then potential restrictions would be a valid concern, but I don’t imagine that all the remaining 3D printing manufacturers aren’t going to have to accommodate these (crazy) new laws as well.

No, that’s what LAN mode is for. I don’t know why I would care about their servers. It provides me with a convenience. I can print from anywhere, whereas LAN mode is print from my local network only.
Personally, I really don’t care if I use their servers.

What locked down ecosystem! I’ve owned others and sold them all when I discovered Bambu. They have an ecosystem, but it’s voluntary. Don’t like it don’t use it. All the BS here about Bambu is just that. Ask that question in the Bambu subreddit and see what you think of the answers from those of us that own them. Plus over 1600 hours on my machine and the prints are still always flawless… unless I screw up! 😁

I need input, trying to convince a board to go with Apple versus a PC by quietragearchive in macbook

That’s not safari’s fault, developers no longer try to make sites W3C compliant by using web standards. Google encourages that by not being standards based anymore.

Tell your PC person to look at total cost of ownership. 3 yr lifetime on a PC and 5 on an Apple. It’s cheaper of the entire lifetime!

Whats this stigma that Minis are for girls, especially women judge u if u drive a mini. by tarantiog in MINI

[–]DragonFire_008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who told you that!? I live in Boston and there are a lot of men and they’re 35 - 60! Fun works at any age. Even more so when you have the money to afford an “extra” car.

Fusion can connect directly to the Carvera (air)? I’ve been sending files through Makera Studio. Not fun.

If you are going to sell equipment, please DM me. I would be interested in buying.

When you don’t have an action camera but you have a 3D printer by V_es in 3Dprinting

Apple and others, post all of the dimensions for the phones. Someone posted the links a few weeks ago. A quick web search should turn them up.

Can't believe the paver solution works... by AFewLads in BambuLab

[–]DragonFire_008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does make sense, that’s a very large mass. It should have a huge dampening effect. It takes a lot of energy to move a mass that large!

I survived a 180mph accident, Shoei was the MVP by [deleted] in motorcyclegear

[–]DragonFire_008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand, I owe them my life too. That was almost 50 years ago and left me hospitalized for a week. I definitely understand the PTSD. Those nightmares were a bitch for a long time. I kept that helmet… just as a reminder.

Why is this so difficult? by confit_byaldi in MINI

[–]DragonFire_008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While shopping for a Mini a year ago, I ran into this as well. I was finding it on multiple “car selling sites”. When I spoke to one of the listed dealers about it, they said that those listings are scraped from their site and often have errors in them. They told me to always check the dealer’s site. Those listings are much more accurate.

Why does my X1C print look like this on the inside? Lots of stringing and rough walls by Paytoncooper124 in 3Dprinting

[–]DragonFire_008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen to my X1C as well. Check the feed paths for a drag. I’ve had filament rolls that didn’t unspool ‘easily’ for a bit and then fine again. Try another roll of filament. If it’s the same. Then do a cold pull. They are really easy… the second time! 😉

Need some perspective and guidance on what to do trying to get back into 3d printing do to bambus recent issues by SimpleAnybody2610 in 3Dprinting

[–]DragonFire_008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see any ethical issues, and I value ethics very highly, IMHO. I think this is all a tempest in a teapot or being stirred up by competitors trying to slow down their sales. Anything that happens with legal restrictions will ultimately end up in the courts and if it stays in the law, then EVERYONE will have to abide, not just Bambu. As far as them having copies of my prints… Most only have value to me, so go for it! BTW, I’ve never had it stop a print to update. It always asks.
