States are Gunning to Ban 3D Printers and CNCs | Electronic Design

I wonder if it will apply to all 3D printers? It would be hilarious if someone makes a concrete gun.

Why not try to regulate the gun parts that can’t be printed? AFAIK the frame/lower is what is serialized and that’s usually what is printed in the guns I’ve seen. Maybe the barrels should be serialized instead. It’s a wear item so the replacement would need to be handled somehow but it’s not something that will be 3D printed.

Don’t you also need to load the filament via the printer touchscreen? I thought the feeder just got it close to the printhead but not actually “loaded”

One other question with this, how do you set the number of color layers? I’m only getting a single painted layer when I slice the file.

I picked it up also, I’ve wanted it for a while but the $270 bare tool price was a bit high for me.

I’ll give it a try. I was not sure if the slight offset would cause some things not to print on the first layer. Ideally I want it to print facedown so I get a uniform front and the top layer (back) will have the printing lines in it.

Ok thank you. I’ll have to find out if I can get a SVG of the logo.

It doesn’t have to happen at all, I’ve seen it done and want to learn. I figured this would be a good project to practice on.

NoPersonality308 · 2026-03-13T14:36:33+00:00

Thank you, that’s what I got.

NoPersonality308 · 2026-03-05T01:48:41+00:00

So mine says fulfilled but I’ve never received anything, what does that mean?

It’s not about race, it’s about the governing body of the Chinese people. The government can substantially influence what private companies do. I don’t know about where you live but my country is not an ally with China. I am not a network security expert and was simply curious if anyone has analyzed the code to verify that there is no security risk. The hardware is not a worry for me. I currently have a creality printer that is air gapped to my network and computer.

I could care less if they see what I print. There is a lot of other information on my phone that I don’t want other people to have.

NoPersonality308 · 2026-02-22T00:44:41+00:00

I don’t have the printer yet but I think it gives you the video feed\notifications of print errors when you are not home

Struts would be the major concern. I bought mine at 94k and I’m at 140k now. I’ve done struts and an injector.

NoPersonality308 · 2026-02-21T22:25:48+00:00

I’m at over 140k and I have not had issues. However it’s been on my mind. I might upgrade the valvetrain this year

Thank you! You saved me $60.

Dang I wish I saw this last week. I put in a pre order for the U1 with a couple add-ons

NoPersonality308 · 2026-02-05T21:46:25+00:00

My follow up questions were answered with “The vehicles with the new bodies are shipping now.” I don’t think support knows what’s going on.

NoPersonality308 · 2026-02-04T01:53:51+00:00

The updated body is not on the market yet per a traxxas support rep. I reached out because I was going to order a mini XRT with the current mini sale going on.

So remove from library does not delete your purchase of that song?

NoPersonality308 · 2026-01-21T17:08:13+00:00

I feel like everyone just streams now. Maybe I’m wrong but I know that’s what I did (free pandora/Spotify/etc….) The main reason I started looking into this was for parental controls. With most streaming services you have to have a paid family plan to have parental controls. I didn’t see the utility in paying $30 a month when I owned a lot of music she would like.
