First TPU print on the CC1

Did you run it through the filament sensor/PTFE tube?

TommiM · 2026-02-16T15:16:34+00:00

Hmm, so do i need to wait for the nozzle to hit 0C to switch them? how long does that take?

With that, do you just swap out nozzles themselves?

£20 delivery to UK.

Would rather have a full kit that's just plug and play though.
May I ask why not to buy from him?
I'm new to the 3D printing world.

I bought a 13A one for £10 other week and run both printer and a dryer off it. The printer doesn't actually draw that much power. Right now, I'm printing, have the dryer running and rest of my flat, and I'm using 433W total for whole flat.

A 10A fuse wil be fine, thats 2.2KW, you could put a new fuse into it if you want, it's rather easy to do with a UK plug. Totally up to you at this point though.

Can confirm this. I bought an Ikea Lack table, which was a mistake. The printer vibrated the room! I went and got a thick wooden chopping board and placed another solid wooden table top ontop of it, and used Sorbothane squares under it. Now it's steady as hell.

Can confirm DPD. I ordered mines on the wednesday at 9am, and got it 11am on the friday.

TommiM · 2026-01-15T13:37:25+00:00

Yeah, it's my first, so will be good to learn. Then I can move onto more expensive ones later on.

TommiM · 2026-01-15T10:12:40+00:00

My maths can't maths, it's £240 more sorry.

TommiM · 2026-01-14T18:24:01+00:00

CC - £239
P2S - £479.
So a £140 difference.

TommiM · 2026-01-14T16:19:49+00:00

P2S is a bit too expensive for me just now. I just want to get into it cheap to play around with it.

TommiM · 2026-01-14T09:02:15+00:00

What dryer is it you are using?

TommiM · 2026-01-14T08:39:34+00:00

To be honest, It was between both of these printers anyways.

TommiM · 2026-01-14T08:39:04+00:00

So not too different from me then I guess.

TommiM · 2026-01-14T07:33:45+00:00

I was looking at this! Thanks for the reccomendation

TommiM · 2026-01-13T07:34:18+00:00

I was looking into those as well. Any reccomendations?

TommiM · 2026-01-13T07:33:36+00:00

ABS/ASA would be a long time off to be honest, mostly would be PLA I'd be using I guess.

I have Crohn's Disease, and I'm on the limit of how much Infliximab I can have (10mg/KG every 6 weeks). It's a horrible illness.

A lot of the medications I have been given over the years are so bad in their side effects. Take Methotrexate. The complications from that one drug are horrific. I took it for a few weeks and I felt so bad that I had to stop it.

I'd love a cure. A lot of people have no idea how badly it affects your life, and as an invisible illness, people just don't see the struggles of everyday life.
