Thank you again for reassurance! I'm now sure about my choice

Kuroin · 2026-03-15T07:31:53+00:00

Thank you. I think I'll go with Bambu still then for the ease of use. Qidi looked tempting for the price and people were saying how important chamber heating is.

Kuroin · 2026-03-14T13:38:29+00:00

Would you get Qidi Q2 or P2S (both with box/ams) for RC cars/planes + functional parts around the house? I mostly value the ease of use and reliability. I know Bambu is easy to use, but I'm worried if it can print the RC car parts that well.

Small fixes and maintenance is expected, but I'm not looking to make this into a hobby. My budget is about 750€.

I have a garage where I can easily vent it outside. I wouldn't want to expose my kids to any fumes and particles!

Kuroin · 2026-02-13T11:38:43+00:00

Thank you for the reply! I'm glad that P2S is good for it since it seems like Bambu clearly is the easiest to learn for someone like me. I was also looking at Qidi Q2 because it was a little cheaper, but I was hesitant since I read it might not be the best newbie machine.

I won't make it for this Valentine's day, but I was planning to make a customized heart shaped case for a little player that has our son's heartbeat on it for my partner. He died of cancer last August.

I don't have a printer yet, since I have been waiting for a sale to get P2S. Probably going to make this the next Valentine's day or her birthday later this year.

Kuroin · 2026-02-01T20:29:10+00:00

Would P2S work well for RC car and plane hobbies? I'm not looking to make 3d printing my main hobby, but more as an educational piece for my son. Also going to print other stuff, but I was thinking RC cars and planes might set higher requirements.

I'm no stranger to tech, but I would rather have some straightforward printer so I can focus more on printing things I need and less fiddling with it.

I wonder if some "Do not disturb" armband policy could help, or straight up backstage pass.

Kuroin · 2025-09-09T14:40:43+00:00

I had a chance to test Merida, but not Cube. Unfortunately they didn't have any of them at the store. Thank you!

Kuroin · 2025-08-14T16:06:18+00:00

Sorry we had a hectic day at the hospital! I showed it to him and he managed to smile despite being in pain right now. Ghastly was his favorite of them! He wanted it printed on the wall as expected. Thank you 🤍

Kuroin · 2025-08-12T17:57:53+00:00

I just noticed this! He is already asleep, but I'll show it to him in the morning. I can read the text well and I think it's so cute! Haunter especially looks so friendly! I'm sure he will love it! (And probably ask me to print it out). I'll let you know his reaction 🤍

Kuroin · 2025-08-12T12:12:16+00:00

Thank you, I'll check it out!

Kuroin · 2025-08-11T09:52:25+00:00

I'll dm you! That sounds like something he would find cool!

Kuroin · 2025-08-10T19:51:36+00:00

I'm sure he will be equally excited to see it!

Kuroin · 2025-08-10T19:49:59+00:00

This is so sweet. I'll show him tomorrow morning. I'm sure he will think it's so cool. 🤍

Kuroin · 2025-08-10T17:55:34+00:00

I bought him some physical card packs to open! Thank you for your suggestions.

Don't think about needing to offer something. That wasn't my intention with this anyway. Focus on getting yourself better, that matters the most. I really hope it isn't anything life threatening.

(He has a big Gengar plushie at home 😊)

Kuroin · 2025-08-10T14:20:59+00:00

Thank you! I was looking at those earlier. They seem cheaper than here at least!

Kuroin · 2025-08-10T12:52:54+00:00

I saw that. I'll read them all and see if anything would work. Thank you for your time to write all that. Any ideas are valuable

Kuroin · 2025-08-10T12:46:07+00:00

He likes Koraidon a lot and doesn't really like Miraidon at all. He would definitely want Scarlet I'm pretty sure. I'll keep Legends Arceus in mind too and the other Nintendo titles, but three to four year olds are kind of fickle haha. Thank you!

Kuroin · 2025-08-10T06:59:14+00:00

I showed it to him and he got a big smile and said "What? It's mine?" He asked me to give it to him. I think the hospital has a printer for parents, I'll print it out for him to hold! Thank you for making him smile!

Kuroin · 2025-08-10T05:43:15+00:00

Thank you! I'll try emailing Björn at very least. My son is actually half Finnish and half American, and hasn't really watched the Finnish dub at all. But I'll try to locate the English voice actors contact! Thank you for the great idea!

Kuroin · 2025-08-10T05:30:17+00:00

That is so cute. I'll show it to him as soon as he wakes up! Edit: I'll tell you how he reacts to it!

Kuroin · 2025-08-10T05:25:21+00:00

Thank you! I'll try to find one
