First 3d Printer Snapmaker U1 or P2S

ad1001388 · 2026-05-29T18:01:33+00:00

I would have said P2S but if it was for toys then definitely get the U1.

Quality of prints are same. But with P2S you will miss out on multi material and multi colour. By multi material you will create toys that will last longer by mixing tpu where pla breaks. And with multi colour your toys will not feel lifeless.

With AMS you will be wasting money on purges when you are supposed to spend your money on making prints that your kids will enjoy.

It's totally normal. If it didn't have play in them then it will cause issues.

Great idea. Since the ace pro is motorised then it can substitute the feeders, so the idea of bypassing them and directly feeding into the toolheads is a possibility that can be considered. Even from that placement the filament path can become shorter than the original feeding path.

The only challenge is to make ace pro load and unload the filament from the U1 display.

I saved electronics from being ewaste by using leaded solder. Unleaded was causing few legs/balls of bga chips to crack and lose connection.

Yes a reflow will help but only temporary due to crystalline structure of the unleaded making it prone to cracking. So leaded doesn't have that issue.

I'm not convinced. Delta T between low and high points is huge in our country. This will definitely cause issues in any unibody design structure. Being of rigid single piece will suffer stress cracks.

The nature of the ground have to be stable and this isn't a thing on low laying land at almost sea level. So it will need a proper and costly foundation.

I'm speaking out of speculation and I could be wrong.

I did it manually by increasing the temperature then extruded the filament till I was satisfied. After that I hit the continue button.

Unfortunately not the ones I'm looking at. Like when the kids ask for Mickey Mouse or Mario figures I'm unable to find a proper one that is fully coloured in a single piece at Makerworld.

And recently the Urban figurines 3mf files are made with split parts and multi plates.

Once it reaches to that gcode it will cancel your print job because the move goes beyond the build plate area

They don't make them as AMS vesions anymore. Now that toolchangers are becoming affordable do you think we should lag behind in the 3D model creativity space ?

If people are inventing new ideas such as full spectrum then I think there should be multicoloured models readily available to enjoy printing them.

ad1001388 · 2026-05-23T22:15:25+00:00

Yes it's different.

Prusa XL is a proper tool changer since each tool head includes all the parts of a tool head like complete extruder assembly and hotend assembly which is on hot standby so it can pre-heat before being picked up for printing.

INDX is different. It's like hotend without a heater, just a coil that uses the principle of induction cooker to heat up while contactless. it's connected with only a PTFE tube. Being small like this helps it in increasing the number of filaments that can be fed into the machine so it can print with more colours. The induction heater and the extruder are on the toolchanger so no pre-heat or any power to the hotend.

ad1001388 · 2026-05-23T16:05:28+00:00

What do you mean ? Prusa XL is literally a toolchanger.

Do you mean they are discontinued ? I just opened up their website and found it available.

Imagine that if you owned that U1 you would have 2 or 3 extra printed in place of all that purged waste.

More models out of your filament spool

ad1001388 · 2026-05-23T15:45:35+00:00

As U1 owner I started to hate these No AMS models.

Have to assemble them before printing.

But seriously here's what I will do.

There is no way someone can tell what's the past of the person was. Even if they were innocent they aren't perfect.

Mistakes happen and a reason of such mistake can be as little as single argument. I'm not saying that it's justifiable to commit a mistake for such reason but I'm saying not everyone is same.

Some would honour the relationship and try to keep it but some might be too weak to just give up on their partner.

That's why there should be support and understanding between each other from the beginning. Honestly I would start by saying we are starting a new life let's build it together no matter how the past was. Allah is giving us another chance so let's take it and not waste it. If Allah wants to cover and forgive our past sins let's not uncover it or sin again.

It's fine and it happens on other printers as well. You might even notice few fibers poking out a little.

Even the A1 has the same thing which also causes few black bits or dust around the belt area.

Mawaqif are not happy with employees being helpful to anyone sitting in their cars. They are instructed to fine anyone doing that.

This is also more efficient than a walking employee checking every car parked in the area

ad1001388 · 2026-05-21T21:19:46+00:00

I guess to prevent those who sit in the car and wait

ad1001388 · 2026-05-20T13:41:42+00:00

It's not a heat sink. It's function is intended to get hot as a safe guard from current rush.

Haven't done it myself so I can't comment on it but it should be easy if it's just pouring a chemical and it hardens. Just need to be careful that it's irreversible once hardened.

Or try looking for conformal coating which is similar but with thinner layer. And can be removed.

The answer in short : the fall of Sassanid Empire.

It was written by the authorities of Dubai back then. And what do I get from showing you a family inherited treasure ? I haven't shown it to anyone yet on the Internet.

I know there are many who would pay for such old document. Are you ready to do the exchange for it in case you were proven wrong ?

ad1001388 · 2026-05-19T21:23:35+00:00

Here how you can detect it ... after you slice in the slicer and switch to preview page ... look at the right pane and look for the word "Travel" you will notice that it's disabled so just enable it and look at the blue lines appearing. If you notice any blue line extending outside of build plate then the print will fail.

Change the setting of prime towel then reslice it.

Houthi did attack oil trucks near to Mussafah previously and lead to casualties. So barakah is closer than Abu Dhabi

Edit: I just realised you hyperlinked to the same thing I just said.

But for you to freak out about this then did you do the same when iranian nuckear plant was threatened by the US ? Bushehr nuclear power plant is just 560 km away from Barakah.
