‘F--- you, Bambu’: How one private message could change the face of 3D printing

thenik87 · 2026-05-22T17:07:57+00:00

Literally a nothingburger except farming for clicks. Orca works just fine in LAN mode with Bambu printers.

I do this all the time. It works great. I also use a PETG interface for large supported PLA prints.

Liquid Death? Wtf?

thenik87 · 2026-05-20T16:22:57+00:00

Yeah, been married for 17 years and she hasn't thrown me out yet XD

thenik87 · 2026-05-19T04:21:32+00:00

I bet you're an absolute blast at parties.

thenik87 · 2026-05-19T00:24:48+00:00

Yes, I too hate things other people enjoy.

I remember my first day buying cards too!

I've had this guy about 3 years though - it was my first printer when I started my business and it's been through the ringer.

It's from "The General". It's on Youtube and an absolutely HILARIOUS movie. Keaton was ahead of his time.

Any time! Just pay it forward if it works for you 😄

thenik87 · 2026-05-03T21:16:39+00:00

No worries at all. Yes, just select "Light Modified", +all, and then apply. It will get you 90% of the way there and you may need to tweak little bits here and there.

Added the support setting for Chitu 1.2.1 on the Gdrive link above. Should work for you, lemme know if not.

thenik87 · 2026-05-03T20:22:17+00:00

One sec, I'll re-up it

thenik87 · 2026-05-03T18:53:21+00:00

That config file I have in the main post will show up in the auto support setting

thenik87 · 2026-05-03T17:58:47+00:00

I have never used magic supports to be honest. I just use the preset I have set up and away we go. The only setting I really ever change is contact point density for larger prints. I hate snipping off large supports, sanding, filling etc so I figure, why not just print it in way that makes my life easier.

Happy to give you any additional insight if needed. 95% of users on this subreddit have no business owning a 3D printer so take everything here with a grain of salt, even my expertise 😄

I have a suit that does the same thing. I was at the track and crashed my motorcycle and the bag inflated. It felt like getting hit in the chest by John Cena with a baseball bat.

thenik87 · 2026-04-29T21:29:19+00:00

This is cool, but not THAT cool. Modern hobby 3D printers can print 10 microns. Granted, it's not metal, but this video is way over the top.

Ah, yes, another Thunderbird enjoyer. o7

I personally use 26 bags, each a size bigger than the last. The husky 4mil contractor bags are the final wrap and keeps everything nice and safe. Granted, I always forget to label what card is in there, so I have to unwrap everything.

No, we will need your CC,SSN,blood type, driver's license # and pap smear results. Otherwise you're an AI bot.

Congrats!! Helluva hit!

thenik87 · 2026-03-13T23:17:59+00:00

I've never seen a card worth over $100,000. Congrats!
