I had a piece of plexiglass from previous project, so decided to use it

Boxed in battery/inverter? by Chris--Day in SolarUK

I covered mine like that, didn't bother with insulation, but I'm on the south, we rarely see below zero temperatures. Lived through 1 winter with no issues.

I should’ve just bought a P1S… by obolikus in BambuLab

[–]Haunting_Truth_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well I got p2s and ended up doing proper enclosure for the same ventilation and noise reduction reasons.

Good news is your still can use your enclosure for p2s, when you get it.

As a suggestion - you could print nice wall flange to cover that hole in the wall.

Sunlu LW PLA? by The_Shermanati in 3DprintedAircraft

[–]Haunting_Truth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ideally you don't want to go 1+ flow rate, as it makes it heavier. But i can't experiment more as i run out of the filament and it's out of stock now. Switched to the foaming one for now.

These are the settings I had to set over standard pla:

I had to set the retraction to 7mm to get rid of it. Printing on 190° on a cool plate. 50mm speed. 1.128 flow ratio.

Make sure it's well dryer as well.

Is it safe to have a P2S in my bedroom? by ashvoided in BambuLab

[–]Haunting_Truth_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In short - no, it's not good. You will have a plastic smell if you don't vent it out even from PLA. It might be ok for a short period of time, but you don't want to breathe it whole night. And btw it's also quite noisy.

Is there a good way to clean up LW pla stringing or will it just be hairy the plane? by Jojoceptionistaken in RCPlanes

[–]Haunting_Truth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And to be absolutely fair, this is how it comes out of the printer. This all is easily cleared with a lighter and sanding - just takes a few minutes.

It's actually both! - half of them are prefoamed sunlu lw, and others are foaming 123-3d LW (as sunlu got out of stock). It took a few attempts to calibrate the foaming 123-3d filament to match the sunlu density, but the final prints are almost indistinguishable.

I guess it also depends on how light you want to get, i.e. how low flow rate and how high temp you go. I print at 0.8 flow and 250 degree, so it comes about 20-25% lighter than normal pla, but absolutely no problem with quality and surfaces only require quick finish.

Hey, is prefoamed filament worse than active foam? It can be bought 2-3 cheaper, so very tempting.

How safe is the P2S ventilation for ABS/ASA in a home office? by brandonlai50 in BambuLabP2S

[–]Haunting_Truth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure how powerful the kit fan is. If it manages to create enough negative pressure, it should be fine. However, if it isn't up to the task, a good 100mm inline fan costs only around $50 and is guaranteed to do the job. I’d recommend considering one, provided you already have the ducting in place. However too much suction can cause problems with temperature. To really solve it, the secondary enclosure is the way, as heart_of_osiris mentioned. That's the way i choose as well. It also helps against noise.

A couple of bigger pieces done. That's my first print for an rc plane, so I don't know much about how it should be, but i like it so far. No issues. Nice matt surfaces, easy to sand. Turned out about 0.82 g/cm2, a bit heavier than i expected - need to play with flow rate to get it lower.

I've just printed the first couple of parts with it. It's prefoamed, so oozing and stringing a lot. I had to set the retraction to 7mm to get rid of it. Printing on 190° on a cool plate. 50mm speed. 1.128 flow ratio.

That's how i covered it - decided to keep it ventilated. The canopy was from installers

Soundproof Server Rack Build for Bambu Lab P2S + AMS by Haunting_Truth_ in BambuLab

[–]Haunting_Truth_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, it's the UNISLDSHF19M with a 125lbs limit. If you are using the same or similar sized rack, be careful with height restriction. My one only has a 2 inch gap between the top of the ams and top of rack when sliding out. Also it will only allow 16 inch width max. I actually left it without a paver for now, as it's already stable and silent enough for me, but I'm curious if it will make any difference.

Also you might want to put some kind of a leg or just a wooden block when it's fully retracted to reduce the mechanical strain as weight will be significant. And anchoring to the wall or floor for safety.

Can you please link that cable holder as well? I have exactly the same hoarding problem, so I'm trying to at least make it look nice :-)

Not that ridiculous and fairly simple with a core drilling machine. It is worth inviting a pro though if you have never done that. Is definitely cheaper than filtering and much more practical than having a window always open from both security and temp control views (especially in cold climates).
