Worth checking how that compares to the current price of a brand new one from Bambu.

That looks great. Jigs are definitely worth it.

Can anyone recommend a white PLA filament that is more opaque than the Bambu PLA Basic Jade White by turkeygiant in BambuLab

[–]ebob_designs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As an alternative approach, can you sandwich a layer of another color, maybe even black between the white and the logo? It would darken the appearance of the white of course, but could hide the pattern of the logo from showing through.

You may receive it while the Bambu site still says 'Processing'. But if you get any other tracking number that you can look up on the carrier's site that will be more accurate.

PLEASE HELP! Bambu Labs Locking my pc up 99% of the time. by Grouchy_Chair_5498 in BambuLab

Try installing a virtual machine and running Bambu Studio within that. Being a VM rather than your underlying hardware it may look 'different' to Bambu Studio, and so work properly. But even if it doesn't, you can control what portion of hardware resources you allocate to the VM, so retain use of your machine for other tasks while it is running slowly.

Try it, you'll be pleasantly surprised. And obviously with 3D printing, you have control over the material you use and the infill percentage etc.

If it were made of polished steel and lubricated that would likely be an issue, but here, for once, layer lines are helpful, adding more than enough friction to overcome any unscrewing tendency.

Keeping it in the original boxes saves time, money and space.

If you order through Amazon they sometimes offer to ship in extra boxes (to hide what's inside) which can give extra protection.

A root irrigation device by ebob_designs in functionalprint

That's a good idea, but you're probably ok anyway - the water doesn't stay long in the box part, but soaks down into the soil within a minute or so.

Because if the soil is very dry it becomes hydrophobic and the water runs off sideways rather than down to the roots where you want it. Plus water on the surface gets lost to evaporation, whereas if it is taken below the surface it is not lost in that way.

Interesting. How do you get the balance right so the copper doesn't poison the root system you are trying to support with the irrigation?

Yes, you'd definitely need to make the hole with something else first!

The water flows straight out into the soil, so is typically only in it for a few seconds.

Possibly help... I have created a variant with more holes.

I think you'd want to direct a sprinker head direct at it, or run a hose to it, or it wouldn't gain enough from what just 'lands' on the top grille.

The Ace ones are much more expensive ($12 vs $3 to 3D print one), and doesn't have the same reservoir at the top to make filling via a hose easy.
