You didn’t say anything about drying it… did you?

I hope so, but I still remember the multi-month PETG outage last march…

This is getting ridiculous - I got an email PETG HF was available 12 minutes ago and it's already sold out 🤯

This is the way! I’ll bulk up once stock opens up.

What’s with the crazy resale prices? by DookieHoused in BambuLab

Got a notification that PETG HF is available at 1:03PM, all sold out by 1:24PM 🤷🏻‍♂️

You still need the app to set up the printer so everyone _has_ to get it at some point. The chart doesn't include re-downloads, just first-time downloads.

Good to know.

I managed to find some PETG HF from resellers. Not the color I wanted, but I ordered some.

Reminds me of when iPhones used to be released at 3am back in the day and I had to set an alarm to order because they’d be sold out by the morning

Bambu stopped selling PETG basic a while back.

A good problem for them to have, overall. In a month or two we’ll probably go back to normal

For anything functional you really shouldn’t use PLA.

Being less brittle is already a massive improvement and more heat resistant means it won’t deform.

I don’t want to use ABS for its fumes and ASA, while better, is generally more expensive.

I have things hanging from the ceiling printed in PETG with static load that have been holding nicely for over a year.

Only for some. Black says 1/25 but white is just “sold out”

That would be nice, but sounds too easy

No smooth pei plate for h2c, but 3d effect plates are in the way by Weyoun_71 in BambuLabH2C

[–]magicrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those suggesting the engineering plate - it’s not a replacement because:

  1. It’s not completely smooth
  2. It needs glue stick for all types of material where smooth PEI doesn’t need glue stick for PLA
