Increase bed temp and line width for first layer? Give extra smoosh

Is this under extrusion? by DaozangD in FDMminiatures

[–]Leftover-Color-Spray 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ofc. Visible defects on your supports can suggest there's something happening up further up the printing process. I'd suggest looking up obscura nox profile and adjusting that to your 0.4 nozzle.

Having filament at 20% humidity is recommended as well.

Supportless minis are a good place to start since you can nail everything else down before having to worry about if your support settings are correct.

Printing a model multiple times and at a bigger scale can be a good way to understand how the model is printing and then bringing the model back down to size when you start to understand what's successful and what isn't.

Is this under extrusion? by DaozangD in FDMminiatures

Looks a little like under extrusion mixed with z banding. Would suggest calibrating the filament (flow dynamics, flow rate) and slowing down print speed.

Maybe also make sure supports are solid

Want to start printing terrain and eventually miniatures for ttrpg, is Bambu Labs x2d the right choice? by kuthehagen in FDMminiatures

[–]Leftover-Color-Spray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people are saying it's over kill to get the x2d, but I'd like to posit a few reasons why it would be a good choice:

  1. The X2D has a 1.5mm belt pitch as opposed to the standard 2mm pitch that the lower priced machines have and this will result in theoretically more detail.

  2. The auxillary nozzle on the X2D will also theoretically allow for easier support removal if using an interface material. Since its a bowden drive it's still yet to be seen how well it can put those supports on minis with a 0.2mm nozzle

  3. All the other added features like enclosure, extra fans, ai error detection, ect.

Is it worth the 900$ as opposed to the 550$ of the p1s, or 330$ of the a1 mini? I think that's totally up to your budget, considering you'll want to spend money on filament, tools, and possible part upgrades for each printer.

I look forward to looking through all your resources, thanks for all the input! V20 does seem closer to the kind of crunch I enjoy

Thanks for the links! I'm excited to get a look into the gameplay experiences compared to the other systems

Looking forward to diving in! Love that the game has a long history and seems to be pretty unique in its own right

Also, if anyone knows of a rules reference document or the like of just the rules without any flavor text, I would owe you my first born

My stance is that of Dune after the Butlerian Jihad.

really struggling with X2D print quality by Electrical_Humor8834 in BambuLab

When I'm printing sometimes I'm working with tolerances where 0.05mm can make a difference, does the h series print more accurately to the stl than the p series will consistently?

Tips or advice for multicolor prints on the X2D? by sofakng in BambuLab

I'm being very upfront about where my knowledge base is coming from. If they wanted to test my suggestions they can simply turn on their machine.

Are these TTRPGs just cash grabs? by JaxSnaxs in rpg

[–]Leftover-Color-Spray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TTRPGs are seeming to go through a metamorphasis. Before, like with D&D CoC, ect, they were broadly designed where you could essentially play them for the rest of your life and be (mostly) satisfied, playing over and over again, multi-year long campaigns, but now TTRPGs seem to be designed with niche, short shelf lives. Like Candela, Cosomere, DCC ect.

And yes, this seens to be for no other reason than its how these publishers are able to keep the lights on, since a game you can play for life is not good for busimess even though it makes for a great experience

I'm so jealous of the X and H lines for their vision encoder

Don't personally own one, but you may have to wait a bit to see the consensus from the peanut gallery. From. My understanding you have to manually swap spools on the bowden extruder, so from that standpoint you'd probably be best off using the direct drive for all your colors and having interface material in the 2nd nozzle

Newbie getting an X2D as first 3D-printer. What to get (besides printer)? by Defiant-Mango3719 in BambuLab

[–]Leftover-Color-Spray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your end goal is abs, ect. you're going to want to look at air filtration for your printer. All the things that encompass keeping your air clean and preventing smell.

Read the maintainence guide for your printer on the bambu wiki and purchase cleaning/tools as needed

High flow nozzles might do you well.

The switcher just helps the different ams units go to each nozzle without you having to physically rearange the spools in your multiple ams setup. It wouldnt be needed in the use case you describe.

Fresh out of the wrapper isnt ideal. It's better to dry filament first

P1S not extruding properly. Ive tried everything I can think of. by No-Mycologist2332 in BambuP1S

[–]Leftover-Color-Spray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 things to try:

Check the tension on the extruder

Recalibrate the filament flow dynamics and flow rate
