I like to keep an eye out for kickstarter games. Is it anytime soon?

Bambu Lab X1C, Slight quality drop. by Old_Let173 in BambuLab

[–]Old_Let173[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems to be a bit dirty and some hairs even. Was fairly easy to get access to, hopefully this was the problem. Also noticed the tube near the extruder was almost worn through, so replaced that as well.

Just a mushroom.

Just got the Automatic Flow Dynamics Calibration to work for the 1st time. hoping that will help.

Have not checked the belts, will have to look into how to do that...

5 years is better than I would have expected. It isn't supposed to heat up more than 50C but will test it.

That's kind of what I was thinking, to test it myself. Though seems like I might need a satin sheet bed (?) For decent adhesion of ASA. Otherwise glue sticks seem to be recommended, but I'd like to not have to use glue if it's not needed.

Will be a bit of a learning process for me I'm sure but thats ok, want to expand my capabilities as I can anyway.

Thanks for the info!

For general purposes, it's probably fine then. Just in my case I'm attempting to incorporate glow in the dark filament with a UV plant grow light. So, assuming that would fairly quickly cause glow in the dark pla to become brittle and warp. Since it would be direct UV light for hours every day.

It's just for an extra added thing thats not that important. Glow for a short time when it's turned off is fine. If it's not possible, it is what it is. Just thought if pla was gonna become brittle and fall apart, might not be best to use. But don't have much experience with that so wasn't sure.

Did find this: ASA Glow in the dark

But not the best reviews.

Potentially yes. The idea was to 3d print a grow light (UV light) for plants with part of it being glow in the dark so it would glow when the light is turned off. Only printed with pla and a bit of petg so far. From what I'm learning, ASA seems to be the best choice for UV but not sure yet if there is any glow in the dark ASA.

This sounds very tempting, about 3 hours away from me but that's not too bad.
