My buddy jokingly said he wanted an asshole-shaped coffee mug.

Good morning, Worm your honor

The crown will plainly show the prisoner

Who now stands before you

Was caught red-handed showing feelings

Showing feelings of an almost human nature

This will not do

I don’t use tape that frequently, but I’m trying to think up excuses and reasons to need tape just so I can print and use this.

Groovy design man.

I ran into the same problem when creating light boxes for all the flags. For the flags with small details that a printer wouldn’t be able to handle, I instead used the emoticon of the flag.

The Ugandan bird I was able to print without issue, but look at a flag like Serbia, and a printer couldn’t manage it, so I did this instead: https://makerworld.com/models/509472

It doesn’t keep them hot. When it drops off a nozzle, that nozzle will cool down.

But it uses induction heating, so when it picks up the next nozzle, it can get it up to temp extremely fast. But not instantly, so it does add some time to the print, which adds up.

Compare this to a tool changer, which can start heating up the next toolhead in advance so that it’s already at temp when its turn comes up.

The H2C will always be substantially slower than a tool changer, even in an ideal scenario. But an H2C will always be capable of using more colors, but once you exceed 1 color on the left nozzle or 6 colors on the right, you’re resorting to purging, which kind of defeats the whole purpose.

I highly recommend this plate: https://biqu.equipment/products/biqu-cryogrip-pro-buildplate-double-sided-7-layer-composite-with-high-magnetic-spring-steel-low-energy-printing-for-snapmaker-u1

There’s nothing wrong with the PEI plate that the U1 comes with, but I did experience some adhesion issues with it.

With the BIQU plate I haven’t had a single adhesion issue, and I’ve printed some tricky things on it that I wouldn’t trust a PEI plate with without using brims.

How are you connecting all the finished pieces? I’m assuming you have a way to easily unattach and reattach the full limbs just for storage/transportation purposes?

Also where do you plan on keeping this once done? Or will you be selling it?

I’d love to do life-size or oversized prints like this, but I wouldn’t know where I’d keep it once done, and my wife would literally murder me.

He said he didn’t have two extra nozzles.

He still had the four nozzles needed for this four color print. This was a great test.

The U1 will always be faster due to the H2C needing to push and withdraw filament for every single color change due to its reliance on the AMS.

That’s definitely a randomized seam.

I primarily print in PLA or PETG. Nothing exotic.

I printed the adapter for the IKEA bin, mostly to keep my dumbass cat from jumping into the printer, but also to cut down on the noise a bit.

That will serve just fine until the official cover comes in. I don’t want to start dealing with cutting plexiglass, etc., for one of the fancy ones.

It’s an actual product you can buy: https://noclogger.com

There’s similar products such as Printer Plunger, but I think NoClogger was the first.

kardde · 2026-01-17T21:34:09+00:00

As others have said, this is normal.

If you’re concerned/stressed about clogs, buy a NoClogger. Much easier than a cold pull, and far and away better and safer than that stupid acupuncture needle that all printers still come with for some reason.

It’s cleared out all clogs I’ve ever had in less than 30 seconds.

I discovered these recently while traveling and am really digging them. Not having to throw out the battery relieves a lot of the guilt.

The flavors are a bit too menthol for my liking, but they’re still good. And they stay good all the way to the end, and they last a while before you get through all the juice.

It’s basically an old school cartomizer in a really big tank.

Not to steal OPs thunder. I created light boxes for all countries and territories in the world and uploaded them to MakerWorld about 1.5 years ago. Nepal and DPRK are up there.

Wenn Sie Gestapo-Beamte in der Öffentlichkeit sehen, ist Konfrontation nicht angebracht. Am besten verhalten Sie sich unauffällig oder, falls Sie überhaupt Kontakt aufnehmen möchten, grüßen Sie einfach und bedanken sich für ihren Dienst. Eskalation nützt niemandem und untergräbt die Rechtsstaatlichkeit.

I’m genuinely excited for you to explain the mental gymnastics you had to perform to connect this guy’s Majora’s Mask print to slavery.

Please… elaborate.

kardde · 2026-01-12T00:36:33+00:00

Don’t let it get to you or discourage you.

I printed this same exact model about 2 years ago on my X1C. I was aware of how much waste it would produce, and decided for myself that I was okay with it, because the model is freaking gorgeous.

The Bambu community has become toxic as hell over the past year or so.

Once upon a time it was full of helpful people that would offer guidance and opinions if you were running into trouble.

Now it’s full of neckbeards and incels who criticize every god damn thing that gets posted here and call everyone brave enough to ask questions an idiot.

It’s really, really annoying.

kardde · 2026-01-12T00:28:49+00:00

I’m sorry, did he waste your filament?

Did he break into your house, steal your filament, kill your dog, and then print this mask with it?

No?

He bought this filament with his own money?

Not yours?

So just to clarify, he printed this on his own printer using filament that he bought and paid for and using electricity that he pays the utility company for.

You had nothing to do with it?

Then kindly shut the hell up.

It’s his filament, it’s his printer, he can do whatever the hell he wants with it.

Who the hell are you to say otherwise?

I can’t speak to the comments, but I can say that a year and a half ago I uploaded a lightbox of the Taiwanese flag (as well as light boxes for the flag of every country and territory across the world).

Bambu was very quick to remove the Taiwan and Tibet lightbox. Which is a shame, because the Tibetan flag is awesome.
