I’ve been wanting an active dry box box for a while because even though I live in a dry climate, it seems like some of the rolls of petg I’ve bought have come a little wet and I want to be able to run them through the dryer. I bought the dryer for $80 and I’m pretty happy with the cost vs effectiveness based on the reviews. We’ll see when it gets there!
I did pull the trigger on getting the Q1 Pro. If I fall in love with qidi products there’s a good chance I’ll end up making my next buy the plus4. Thank you for you input!
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.
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.
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.
Maybe if Harris would actually post a policy plan I’d have more enthusiasm about her. Real frustrating to see another Dem candidate trying to appear progressive while actively saying nothing and towing party line.
Walz is a boss tho.
I’ve been using Firefoxs integrated password manager for lots of unimportant logins, KeePass for everything else.
Made me laugh a probably inappropriately loud amount in the hospital waiting room.
