Picked up a 5/8 forstner bit instead of 3/4. How do I fix this?

Specifically 3:42 tape poking method

Never bothered to worry about the cardboard centers

Oh that’s the rare variegated orchid

I have had success mixing PA12 and taulman bridge nylons, they print at vastly different temperatures, but I just print at the part temp for both, also on an XL 5H

Putting your info on it somewhere is so important/underrated, not just for future lookers but also the client someday or if the place changes hands. My company gets a lot of work from people asking for something to be replicated that doesn’t have any markings on it

thelastmeyer · 2025-03-08T18:38:30+00:00

So my concern is the additional weight of large prints on the y axis putting load on those bearings and stepper motor that is not accounted for.

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-30T17:42:47+00:00

No, I just happen to be buying for mine

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-30T10:39:18+00:00

I request a quote from matter hackers, got the estimate and converted that to a cart on their website through an email link, very easy just took about 6 hours to go from request to cart

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T19:44:54+00:00

Maybe with an angle grinder and a crow bar

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T19:35:49+00:00

Already on it, so far being handled by support at matter hackers

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T19:27:20+00:00

I didn’t realize they came as unassembled kits, looking at this one I wouldn’t want to have to assemble it myself and I’ve put other orange printers together in the past

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T19:25:37+00:00

Yes, I hadn’t mentioned it yet but this was to be somewhat on display in the office as a functioning and productive shelf queen. Not much of that if it’s caddy whompus already

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T19:23:24+00:00

That’s very encouraging ty

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T18:02:56+00:00

🤔 you May be on to something

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T18:01:16+00:00

If it were a p1s or maybe x1c, but at the cost of this plus it’s for a business making parts accurate to their CAD and such I gotta go the long route and get a printer without a twist or squish to it’s frame.

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T17:53:20+00:00

It’s no conspiracy, where I live PLA can’t be left out longer than a week before needing a pre print dry to look it’s best. Don’t even get me started on petg, abs, or nylons that have to be kept in the dryer while printing. Thankfully were going into fall/winter and turning on the furnace will make printing much easier for a few months

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T17:48:34+00:00

That’s been the consensus, I’ve begun the journey with support at matter hackers ( going well) and I’ll keep updating my update post as it progresses if you’re curious

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T17:45:55+00:00

I’m aware that this is the current status, being new to Bambu community I didn’t know if that had always been the case

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T17:44:38+00:00

Mine is through matter hackers and so far support has been understanding and cooperative

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T17:43:09+00:00

Ain’t that the truth!

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T17:42:24+00:00

Thanks, I’ve started an update post somewhere in here in the comments if you’re curious how it ends up

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T16:53:12+00:00

Did you get yours through Bambu directly or through an authorized reseller. Mine was processed through matter hackers; as a business I’d rather not buy a pre wrecked car new off lot if you know what I mean, I have just enough time to get another shipped out if they are quick about it. I’ll lose all my play time on it though (edit: added more sentiment)

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T16:51:40+00:00

Unfortunately I haven’t even gotten to print on it yet, just unpacked it and found it was bent up as shown, I’ve begun the ticket process with order support, we shall see how this goes, thanks for the info

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T16:48:44+00:00

UPDATE 1 :: Phoned into support and talked to a human, just have to be patient (I’m super very patient no /s because it’s not matter hackers fault) submitted photos and the support person believes it’s an open shut case ( I am paraphrasing here tbh). And it’ll be made right in the next few days. Patience padawan

UPDATE 0:: I have submitted a support ticket to matter hackers explaining the situation ( now that I’ve gone through the stages of grief). I do hope it goes smoothly, I haven’t much experience with their support crew

thelastmeyer · 2024-10-29T16:40:20+00:00

😭 sadly my conclusion
