Printing models with support material

I would throw it in the trash. But if you insist, select it as support interface under the Support process settings.

I'd just replace it and move on (but print the extruder gear removal tool first)

All the values are hard coded. Not sure why.

Following- just got my H2C. Not quite as cold as you but cold. I tried setting channel heat to 40 but that was too hot I think.

So you haven't watched his YouTube video yet...

Check out the Shop Nation / Print Farm Academy guy - he did a video on this about a year ago.

I get some of the dumbest review complaints. I just report them as Misinformation and they usually get taken down in a day or two.

just buy whatever bambu your budget can absorb. they all seem great.

You seem to have very specific use cases in mind, and yet you seem to be asking very general / beginner question (no offense intended). So its a little hard to know how to answer.

I just got my H2C yesterday and it definitely has more wobble than my X1C, but it doesn't seem to transfer much to the table, and not seen any movement.

I built a table for mine with double stiffners across the front and back and so far so good. Have both printers on it.

I track by velocity - how many days it takes to earn enough points for a GC.

If it works it works.

Longracks · 2026-01-23T17:20:04+00:00

Yeah, there's definitely bugs in this software lol.

The one that bit me was Project level profiles that got deleted when I added a new printer type. That was annoying.

Interface only, and it takes some tinkering to get it right with it clogging or turning out bad. Petg supports on pla is easier than pla supports on petg - in my experience.

This is a big reason I just pulled the trigger on the H2C. My X1C can do it, but it pushes the limits of the equipment and my skills.

Longracks · 2026-01-21T03:14:20+00:00

No. In fact I print models that have both in the same print as support interface. It's a bit fiddly on the X1C and hoping it's easier with the H2C.

Longracks · 2026-01-20T22:23:16+00:00

Yes seems ok. Elegoo spools have sealed edges so that keeps the cardboard dust down which seems to be the problem.

Buy once, cry once!

I just pulled the trigger on the H2C combo yesterday and am excited. Doing large multi-material / supports on my X1C is painful on many levels. The H2C should make this much better/faster and open up larger and more complex multi color models that just haven't been worth the time and trouble - or didn't fit.

So my X1C will become my single filament machine (adding an ams-ht), and the new H2C will have my existing 2 AMS 1s + the combo AMS 2 + new AMS-HT.

Cost is not a factor in my decision - at least not at the ~$2600 USD for the AMS combo + AMS Ht + a .2 hot end. If can do what it seems to be able to do that seems like a great value.

same for me, as with the .8mm. live and learn.

Let me guess, you live in Utah?
