Creality is trying so hard😭

It's clearly totally different: the purge wiper is on the right instead of the left and this one has an RGB light strip. /s But in all seriousness: we should value all competition, especially at this price point. The longer Bambu Lab doesn't corner the market, the longer we might be able to avoid to

What’s the easiest “fire-and-forget” Bambu Lab printer for someone with zero 3D-printing experience?

Bambulab A1 with the AMS combo. Simple, easy, quiet enough.

My son wants a 3d printer

I suggest the Bambu Lab A1 mini that’s on sale right now for $199. It’s a nice starter printer. If he is really into printing in the future, you can add the AMS to allow multi-color printing.

Wife wants me to throw out the K1max and buy a Bambu. I'm out of ideas, please help me

Honestly, with how much you've tried already... Ditch that printer. I'm not saying it's a bad machine in general, But honestly i think your unit is just kind of fucked at this point.Could you fix it? Probably. Is it going to be worth the extra cost in replacements and the countless hours tinkering?

Valve releases Steam Controller CAD files under Creative Commons license

Look into the bambu labs a1 It's the easiest printer to setup imo and does just as well in quality as pretty much any printer out there. As you go up in price with other printers you mainly just get qol features and niche things like dual nozzles. Build size is also great for the price It's like $25

A message to anyone who feels bad about getting a P2S and NOT the X2D

they ran a survey on MakerWorld or a Bambu Lab forum (I honestly can’t remember) to see what printers people uploading models were using. The majority something like 65%, were using the A1. And if I remember correctly, the survey disappeared pretty quickly after that. My guess is they didn’t love wh

Actually, the hotend got

Bambu Lab 3D printers: Never again - Jeff Geerling

I almost hate to admit it -- I believe in open source and work in the software industry so am intimately familiar with all of these behaviors -- but I'm here too. In fact, the walled garden approach is the entire reason I finally got into printing after all these years. I'm interested in the prints,
