  • BambuLab A1 mini without AMS it is $200. Toss in a hardened steel nozzle ($10 or so) and they are good for Carbon fiber materials.

    Construction is pretty similar to the mentioned Cetus MK3 with the difference that BambuLab nailed the usability.

    Hope to include printing, especially in metal.

    Won’t happen. This requires a debinding oven which is a pretty nasty process involving acids/bases, high pressure and temperature.

    There are products like (BASF) Forward AM 316L which can be mailed in for the debinding and sintering process.

    I’ve seen some of the flap about Bambu and them closing up the software tool chain. I would like to avoid that sort of thing, for now, openness is better.

    You don’t need to update as they are fine. with the current firmware, it is a non-issue.


  • Not even a well-executed one either. I suppose back in the dark days he would be beaten up for this performance/disrespect to the Führer.

    Stunning is also the TV commentary going in the direction of he had no idea it was the Hitler salute (to be fair two weeks prior he called Hitler a communist in a talk/interview with the chancellor candidate of the German neonazi party) …

    Not knowing a thing about a movement that killed millions and happened within the last 100 years is bad. Being rich doesn’t mean being educated & civil.






  • The far bigger issue is that reviewers don’t have the time to put 1000 hours and more on the printer. So a lot of them are just an extended unboxing experience.

    Next issue is that nearly all of the influencers have no expertise at all. They are just talking heads and happen to know a thing or two about 3D-printing. This means they still have no clue at all about embedded/electronics and mechanical design and often make hillerious comments.
