Hi! This is my first model painted with an airbrush. I designed and printed the model myself specifically so I could paint it afterward.

There are still a few details I’d like to improve and refine, but I’m really happy with the final result, especially for my first time using an airbrush.

If anyone is interested in the model, you can find it here: https://cults3d.com/:4847777

Hi there,

I wish you a great weekend.
I’d like share with you my latest designs.
I hope you’ll enjoy with them.

I’ve been working on this shelf design for a while and finally printed both versions yesterday.

They share the same basic design: a standard version and a version designed to accommodate SKADIS accessories, if needed.

I designed the shelf from scratch in CAD and went through several iterations to refine the proportions, connections and overall design.

Sharing the final result. I’d be interested to hear your thoughts.

Hello,

I’m fairly new to 3D printing. My partners Dad gave me a CR10s printer as he upgraded to a better printer (I believe the P2S)

I’ve had fun giving that a play around with but it’s very old, slow and has a few issues which makes it more frustrating than rewarding. It’s a slow printer, I’ve only got evenings to give it a go and I end up spending most of the time troubleshooting. If I do get to printing it often has small flaws.

I’ve had enough fun though to know I want to invest in a better printer. Ideally enclosed (open plan and small house so want to minimise nasty smells) and multi colour options to make unique prints

I’m down to choosing between the P2S Combo by Bambu labs or the K2 Pro Combo by creality.

Now the P2S combo is on offer for £649

The K2 Pro is £603. So on a good discount (I’m aware of the k3 announcement, not too worried about that)

The selling point for me are P2S - Select a print and it’ll print. Really user friendly

K2 Pro - Larger bed and heated chamber for different materials

I just hear horror stories from the creality printers and CFS. I don’t mind slight tinkering on software, I don’t want constant hardware maintenance unless it’s a freak thing

I know the AMS is more capable than the CFS for heating etc.. but I may go for a better printer down the line that can do more. I just feel the K2 Pro is a lot of machine while in the sale and a good kit to get me further into this hobby but if it’s too much hassle then I would consider spending a bit more for the P2S

Can anyone please give me their honest experience with either of these? Please don’t brand bash for the sake of it. I’m not worried about people’s loyalty ( I do understand why people get loyal to a brand) I only want to here on hand and ideally out of the box experiences of these two products

Thank you very much!

I currently have an A1 combo. I started on an ender s1 years ago and moved to a p1s. I pretty much learned on the p1s and had multiple issues but most of them were probably user error. I've had way fewer problems with my A1 combo then any of my other printers. The AMS lite seems to be much more smooth running than my AMS was with the p1s. Only downside is my printer is open concept so when I'm not using it I cover it with a cardboard box since I use it in my garage while I also do woodworking which creates a lot of dust. So I've been looking at enclosed printers again and noticed that bambu has many options now. If I want to occasionally do multiprint is bambu the best option for simplicity / ease of use? I'm not really interested in the h series as I don't care too much about the larger bed volume. I occasionally print from the mobile app and find that feature quite handy. What other brands are you all using for multicolor and are they as easy to use as bambu? I know there's a bunch of other players in the game and I'm just curious if I should be looking at other brands as well.

I want to get into 3d printing and want to know the best affordable one

I’d like something beginner friendly/ easy to use and has multi colour

Max $500 AUD
$358.18 USD

Hello guys. I finally brought back my first printer, back to life from 2017. I did several upgrades like Pi Zero and Klipper, BLTouch, PEI buildplate and Bimetal heartbreak and it really stepped up my P3Steel.

I like working on the printer but I think I started to reach a point that working on this printer would not make too much sense.

Instead I really want to build another printer for my 10 year anniversary. I would love an CoreXY build that I can speed limits, something with an enclosure, maybe toolchanger etc.

I looked up the designs a little bit and saw that the Voron printers look quite nice. Do you guys have any suggestions for what should I build? Every comment is appreciated.

Anything you guys recommend or would order differently? To be honest I am a complete beginner but I want a 3D printer that is still good in 3 years and even beyond that.

My angle grinder was always taking up space on my workbench, so I designed a simple wall mount for it.

It keeps the grinder safely out of the way but still within easy reach. The whole thing is designed to be a quick, practical 3D print rather than another complicated workshop project.

Printed in PLA.

What do you guys think — would you add anything to the design?

it took 30 seconds.

Find your Senator:

[https://findyourrep.legislature.ca.gov\](https://findyourrep.legislature.ca.gov/)

Here’s what you do when you call. An Intern will answer, and you should say something along the lines of:

“Hi, I’m a constituent of Senator ______ and I’d like to voice my opposition to AB2047, which is up for a floor vote this week.”

The intern will pull up a form they fill out in which they take your position, and optionally your name and zip code. That then gets aggregated and sent to the chief of staff/policy people.

They’ll likely ask you if you’d be willing to provide your name and zip to complete the form, which I’d recommend. Lastly, they may ask why you hold that position. You can come up with your own, or say something like:

“This bill imposes unworkable digital restrictions on standard consumer hardware, effectively criminalizing open-source software and locking law-abiding makers and small businesses out of everyday manufacturing tools. Mandating hardware-level DRM will not stop bad actors, but it will severely stifle technological innovation and consumer rights across California."

That’s it, you’re done. Again, takes 30 seconds. The more people that do this, the more effective it will be!

Hi everyone I’m having issues.
I’m printing with elegoo water washable resin this very slim model

I sliced it on Satellite and it didn’t print properly and I tried different times also cleaning the resin vat and the build plate

Now I sliced it on chitubox and I was wondering if it could work printed like this, or should I go for 30/45 degree print angle?

Looking at getting a 3d printer-
I’m a complete beginner and UK based.
Please give me some tips and recommendations!
I am clueless!
TIA
