  • Looking to get a new printer, Qidi Q1 Pro top of list? Also Polydryer?

    Jump

  • This is what I like to hear! I ordered some pet cf and straight nylon, the pa-cf was just too expensive to justify without a specific usecase. Does your xmax 3 come with a tungsten carbide nozzle or did you switch to one to use cf filaments?

  • Thank you for the link! Looks like my pick is 2nd on the list haha. Pulling the trigger today and gonna get the Q1 Pro

  • ... and absolutely yes on the engineering materials, should be easy as pie.

  • That plus 4 looks very nice, but it is just a little out of my price range unfortunately and it also seems like the Qidi box will not be compatible with the Q1 Pro, but I still feel like multi filament printing with a single print head is a wasteful gimmick.

  • Yeah Im pretty happy with my A1 mini myself, but moving from a bed slinger to a core xy I think will be a nice change on some of the bigger or taller prints as well as the bigger build volume which yes, doesnt quite match the A1's 256^3, but its really not much smaller (245x245x240).

    Looking at the reviews and price it really does seem to be the sweet spot for stepping up my 3d printing game. Ive been watching reviews for a good chunk of the last couple days, trying to find as many as I can that are more recent than 11 months ago when everyone was reviewing machines they just got and instead reviewing machines theyve actually put through the paces.

  • At the moment ABS and PETG, but Im also just interested in expanding my capabilities and refining print quality. Im an engineering student and will very likely find uses for this printer in school projects and definitely in my own projects. If I ever need XL prints or want to get into multimaterial, Prusa is gonna be my go to.

  • (Discussion) what are thoughts about using a 3D printer to make TPU dog toys?

    Jump

  • TPU pretty completely bonds between layers, there's not the same risks associated with pla and petg. Printing TPU can be a bit of a hassle so if you're using it to prototype make sure you tune your profile for TPU. I think it's a great idea.

  • I want to branch out from PLA. Should I try ABS or TPU?

    Jump

  • TPU is what I'd suggest. You don't need a enclosure and it should work for what you want. It's a finicky material though so be prepared to spend some time getting to know it, figuring out it's temps and speeds is a must for good prints.

  • You guys can remember names? They just don't stick for me. I have classmates I have a working relationship with whose name I don't know and I've worked with them across 3 classes -.-

  • Why are there triangles in the infill that get filled with one layer?

  • This is the answer. +1

  • How do you organize your 3d printing/modeling project folder(s)?

    Jump

  • A folder called 3d printing has most of the stl and 3mf files arranged by date modified. Nested in there are folders for specific projects that have revisions or are remixes I've done, but I'd like to overhaul the whole system to something that makes a little more sense. I like the idea of a git for my own projects, I've already lost revisions by not paying attention and overwriting the old ones.

    Orca stores my filament and profile settings, haven't found a reason to export those.

  • I'm gonna try the with tpu filament to make an o ring for my water bottle, thanks for the low tech approach, very cool ingenuity.

  • New tongue-stimulating implant offers hope to millions with sleep apnoea in UK first

    Jump

  • Yeah definitely going to look into that, and surgery. I've been to the sleep doc twice and tried CPAP twice, hopefully it's okay to move onto other things now.

  • Hey I'm in the US and have struggled with my sleep apnea and I just can't handle the CPAP machines so now I'm looking into surgery or maybe something like this. Any chance you can share more of your experience?

  • looking to buy the a1 mini no ams

  • I'm already half a dozen prints in and loving it 😁

  • Yeah I'm fine with copying prints via sd card, and that's what I'm doing for the moment. A1 mini came very fast and I just did the tug boat classic first print
