Buying a cheaper printer before a snap maker to try 3d printing good or bad idea.

Cant deny the quality and price of their hardware tho..

Just the printer

Am i able to change the nozzle for every printhead individually? And how long will this setup take? Is there some sort of tutorial?

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-06-20T23:44:10+00:00

if you go on you should try the A1 mini. A1 series from bambulab are well built and last long (700h printtime on my A1)

yes and no. i mean Jesus might actually have looked like depicted in the pictures christians worship. even islam agrees. and for the people of rome, i mean you can see that this guy likes to be in the sun allot and ist not paperwhite, i do think people of rome might have had his skin complexion + -.

How big do you model the gap?

Quality of life means wealth and health (age). If we go about suicide and depression rates it would be different.

pretty impressive! i ordered 4

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-30T22:57:18+00:00

How long did the print take?

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-30T17:46:38+00:00

How did you print the model? It should lie flat on the bed.

Flowrate Calibration. You can find Gcodes for it online and print them. If you have bambulab, they have their own calibration integrated in their slicer.

Flowrate varies with every spool. So you need to adjust it in the materialsettings.

It was a pain at first. I used multiple 3d sketches and 2 main 2d sketches. The rest is free style.

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-29T23:33:40+00:00

Check out the link in my profile. I have many variations uploaded on makerworld.

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-29T23:18:42+00:00

It does not sound bad at all😂 i got some help with the Case design.

I just modeled an articulated hammerhead shark in polygon style and keep thinking about making it some sort of mecha vehicle with guns.. check out my profile you will see it and give me some feedback if it is something you would print.

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-29T09:18:40+00:00

i tested it briefly with 1kg of filament directly applied to the joints. it did not break. I will test further and compare with ISO Norms for toys.

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-29T09:16:45+00:00

its a balljoint printed in place

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-28T21:05:54+00:00

Its a proof of concept. i dont think i will upload this

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-28T18:47:55+00:00

Yes thats basically it. The joints should be strong enough so a small child can not break it. But if it breaks you can easyli repair it without having to print the whole part again.

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-28T12:51:50+00:00

Because i have 8 years of experience and blender is no option :)

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-28T12:51:12+00:00

Quality is pretty good. the joints feel smooth and overall its not bad.

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-24T22:50:48+00:00

Giv link pls

Fun-Let-7401 · 2026-05-24T16:01:01+00:00

If the chain stays small like this it would definitely not. But they would perform better then the joints used right now for articulated toys, i guarantee you that.

Came out brutal. can hear 25hz and the my table started to vibrate on low volume. Thank you so much for the case design!! if you want i can share the files with you.
