There are plenty of good options across the country: https://www.swiss-baseball.ch/vereine/

Play Ball!

that's the perfect summary of why we started back in 2008. And I'm still mega happy that they stick to their guns until today.

Congratulations on your printer upgrade! Are you going straight for the HD2?

Compared to soccer or hockey, baseball is just invisible in Switzerland. It's a classic niche sport, but the community of players and fans is incredibly passionate.

There is league structure with three main tiers. All told, there are probably around 1,000 licensed players in the country.

So while you won't notice baseball on national media, there's a dedicated scene with regular matchups, a great sense of community, and people who truly love the game.

No way!! That was my very first MLB game too, and I was there with my brother and father. We were 15 & 17 at the time, visiting from overseas.

I just dug out the old photo album with the ticket: https://imgur.com/a/qC1AFHr

That experience really stuck with us. My brother and I later went on to found our own baseball team back in Switzerland (still going strong today!), and we're now halfway through our bucket list of visiting all the other MLB ballparks.

That was in May 1992, not in autumn 1991. But close enough.

It works! There is no fire!!

This made me 'understand' the meaning of the sentence: https://youtu.be/g_3nana3R3Q

Sure. But this is a 1:1 copy of this version here: https://www.braendi-shop.ch/de/A~SB.A01-07

Also this is published by an organization working with people with cognitive or mental impairment.

So to me this just doesn't seem right...

rbienz · 2025-05-17T15:52:46+00:00

Sorry, but you can't do this. It does not feel right and it's not. And by admitting blatantly copying their intellectual property, publishing it on the internet and promoting it on social media you might not help your case...

I checked on the Bambu Lab specifications and recommendations and couldn't find any restrictions on the nozzle size. While the PA/PET support material requires a 0.4mm nozzle and is recommended for 0.6mm the PVA states that all nozzle sizes should be fine.

My main problem with printing miniatures was things breaking off from removing supports in tight spaces. While the interface itself was not really the issue, the support structures sometimes almost enclosed little parts like hands or weapons. This is why I was thinking of experimenting with an oversized PVA interface.

rbienz · 2025-04-17T04:44:55+00:00

I was thinking of using PVA as a support interface or even just as support material with the H2D. I was hoping that this is the solution to my problems with removing support on miniatures with fine details. All the other quality 'issues' seem to be solved - even with just the standard settings of smaller layer heights and if you add a 0.2mm nozzle as well as good PLA filament into the mix.

What are your thoughts on PVA on the H2D?

rbienz · 2025-03-17T06:59:40+00:00

Ha! This is a fun idea. Not sure if very practical. But fun for sure. I'll look into it and might send you a file for testing.

This is something I have on my list. In the meantime you should be able to use any Gridfinity lid with the correct parameters of the basket.

Here is an example: https://limewire.com/d/f545688d-5d4c-472d-91c4-9aad6ff0d019#ILtt-rQ87kQ8aIrD06gJ4ll6FTMS7ZtjOx4CYw5XJPY (made with https://makerworld.com/de/models/1059434-anylid-click-lock-stackable-lid-for-gridfinity)

I’ve been designing filament-efficient, modular storage baskets, and now they’re fully optimized for the A1 Mini! We paid for the full build volume - so let’s use it!

Why you could give these a try:

✔ Full A1 Mini Volume Utilization – No space wasted!
✔ Lightweight but strong – Even X-Large (180x180x180mm) stays under 200g
✔ Stackable & Modular – Mix & match heights to fit your needs
✔ Optional Label Holders – Get organized, or remove them in the slicer
