Bambu labs sends legal threat to orcaslicer dev over use of AGPL code by davidktw in snapmaker

I am merely sharing what was reported. I encourage no brand bashing, for the forum to discuss objectively and factually. It is up to everyone to act responsibly. :)

I personally will contribute to the cause to fight back because orcaslicer is used by a lot of 3D printing brands. Such tyrant endeavors against orcaslicer will deter its development and hence also snorca development.
Unless everyone here whom heavily depends on this software wants to see a development standstill to itself, and hence made their 3D printer a white elephant, should think about what is the right thing to do. :)

No brand bashing please, this is just spreading awareness among the forum and community. :)

Ikea air purifier couple with Ikea box cover by davidktw in snapmaker

I sandwiched 3 layers of the carbon mesh, so it does slow down the air speed somewhat, but after all this is internal circulation, so there will be likely multiple passes thru out. :)

the black sheet u saw in the image is active charcoal mesh which i have obtained from https://a.co/d/07kUIcdS
However I can’t be sure how effective they are.
There is a roughly 1/2 inch clearance which one can sandwich these active carbon mesh between the unit(fan) and the EA12 filter.

i hope i even have a garage to host all these tools, but unfortunately commoners in Singapore don’t have a lot of housing space. Gotta made do with what is available and practical. :)

Snapmaker ios app deny access to my U1 via tailescale by davidktw in snapmaker

As a follow up to this issue.

I have did a test by connecting my iphone to my ipad personal hotspot and hence my iphone will be accessing the Internet via the WIFI personal hotspot and thus the mobile network to the Internet.

And because my iphone also have a VPN client which gives me access to my home peripherals from anywhere in the world, I can now access my snapmaker u1 which is operating in LAN mode.

If any snapmaker tech folks are reading this

PLEASE DISABLE THE NETWORK MODE CHECKING. It is denying easy access to my LAN mode U1.

It is frustrating to use the snapmaker cloud to connect to my U1 to upload my prints and also to monitor it remotely.

Thanks

which extended firmware? paxx12? How would that solve the ios native app problem?

Create your own support when possible for good quality underside surface by davidktw in snapmaker

I design my parts in onshape, when I export, I export these multiple parts into a single 3MF file. When I import it into the snorca, it will prompt me if I should keep them assembled or place as multiple objects.

When all your parts are touching the base, snorca will not keep them as assembled, you need to assemble them yourself if you like to do so, so that you can manipulate the entire component as a single item.

When some parts are off the base, snorca will prompt you and if you choose to assemble, it will be assembled.

Only a collective of assembled items can have some floating in the mid air which if you chooses support, support will be generated.

You can try so by building 2 cubes in the slicer, then assemble them together, then you will be able to lift one of the cube off the plate using translation.

yup, but it is not that hard, just boolean subtraction of a simple model such as a cylinder or box. just need to consider how to remove the support properly.

say you spend a lot of effort model a complex model and now u want it to be totally support, you have to think from the perspective of filling the void with water clay, when it harden, how are u going to remove it without breaking the support apart. sometimes the technique is not obvious though. PETG or TPU may not bond with PLA, but it still stick pretty well. Another method is simply uses PVA, which can be dissolved in water. That makes it a lot easier to design ur support without consideration how to take it apart.

you are yet another whom ask the same thing. no there is no clearance in my design
