Re: Special Project Codename EF209 - RC 1/12 pancar
While I love selling g10 and carbon parts, I think a project like that deserves something printed 8) Not really a tub chassis, but something with raised sides possibly. The Club Race Hero is a really cool design that you could borrow ideas from as well. The simple suspension system works great, the...

Re: Special Project Codename EF209 - RC 1/12 pancar
A quick test print to ensure it is printable, and the clamp works... (and yes, I added some cryptic message on some parts :-) ) https://i.imgur.com/1gW86Ey.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/0ntvrpX.jpeg I will just modify the master part of the front train in order to make it easier to position within the cl...

Re: a thread for BambuLab machines
The AMS is currently on sale. I started with one on my X1C,and bought a second one quite quickly. You may not see the interest of the AMS at first, but once you have it you are going to change your mind. My own use cases are: multi colors - It's rare but I use this time to times finishing a roll and...

Re: a thread for BambuLab machines
Sounds like good advice. Thanks. Extruder upgrades, AMS, etc, all in good time. I am retired so must watch my spending and delay some things until next month. That said, I can't print without filament so should I buy from Bambu or is there a better source? Also, can you please recommend a filament ...

Re: QIDI Plus4 - 3D Printer
The Manx dune buggy chassis is supposed to be printed out of Nylon, but I used Silver PLA instead, with a 0.20mm layer height and using the Strength preset. https://i.imgur.com/TmzOhs7.jpg Even the ugly side isn't too bad, and was pretty easy to clean the supports off of, for once. https://i.imgur....

Sixth bag... Steering mechanism is in place... https://i.imgur.com/d251xXU.jpeg And then it's time to build the shocks... This gun metal is nice...

Re: Kyosho Optima Mid 60th Anniversary - kit 30643
To have clues about my wiring, I need to deal first with my battery support... For this I started to draw the chassis section (before checking, I also thought the lip for the Mid standard chassis would go along the edge of the chassis at the place where there is the battery and it is not the case). ...

Re: QIDI Plus4 - 3D Printer
It was a tight fit, most likely based on the layer height settings, and the unfinished interior of the hub, the model looked great, the print could be better. Couldn't get that bearing back out, broke the part trying. Will print another. :D Yeah, I thought that might happen as I have not adjusted b...

Re: Filament dry storage
By chance, are you also measuring the humidity in the buckets? Maybe knowing the humidity in storage isn't so important since you can always dry the filament when you're ready to use it? Thus, storing the filament in sealed containers with dehumidifiers reduces the time required to dry the filament...

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???
I just received Ryo Inagaki's Artbook 2024 
I feel like I participated to his book as he used two of my models as a basis for some of his work... And he made something very special for me on the very first page...
I love it
