Find out which filaments work well with the bambu profiles, then respool those onto the bambu spools with the original core and tag in place. You won’t be able to edit the filament info other than the k value, but at least you’ll get the color and filament remaining on the spool.

I was about to print the other version of this, but I think I like this orientation better.

Do you have the board integrated into this mount?

I’m bored at work. I’ve got nothing better to do than to argue with strangers. My apologies lol.

TLDR; you went off topic, I agreed with some of your statements, but you’re still wrong about a pla benchy melting inside a car and welding to the dash.

I don’t see this as a battle. You keep leaving the original topic of conversation in favor of what OP is referencing. I’m well aware of what OP is referencing, the jeep ducks and how he wants to hand out benchys instead.

You replied to him saying that leaving prints in cars can cause warping and sun bleaching, which you are correct. I don’t disagree with this statement.

I replied to you saying, it’s just a benchy. Basically saying “who cares, it’s a small print and we make a lot of them. If it gets ruined then so be it”.

The conversation was the diverted to how it can ruin the paint on vehicles if it melts. Which I also agree with. But this has nothing to do with leaving prints in cars like your original comment I replied to was. That is why I redirected back to the inside of the car and said “the dash is plastic”. Now we’re back in the car like we were in the beginning.

It was then said “pla can weld to other plastics”. Also again, I do not disagree. I assume it is being said that the temp inside a car can cause pla to reach its melting point and melt causing it to fuse to the dash? There’s no way the inside of a car is reaching 150°c. On top of that, pla and abs do not readily bond.

This is again where there was A redirect with a personal attack. Not a huge deal imo, but still a redirect.

I could probably stop here, but I’ll be thorough so there’s no more confusion.

I responded saying that you guys are creating irrational fears, of which they are for the 2 reasons I stated above and personal experience with the same vehicle.

It was then redirected yet again back to OP’s intentions, which again I am well aware of. And then we got back on track.

Are you all caught up now? Back on track?

This guy isn’t going to ruin his dash by leaving a pla benchy on it. Yes, the benchy may deform and the colors will likely sun bleach over time. Who cares about that though? It’s a benchy.

You were literally talking about leaving prints in cars.

Ive only responded to one comment. Everything else is the conversations that stemmed from my comment.

My first hand experience tells me this is a non issue. Let’s agree to disagree.

Tank another look at OP’s picture. That’s a dashboard.

I’m not. I’m just saying putting a pla benchy on your dash isn’t going to ruin your dashboard. You guys keep creating fear of a problem that doesn’t actually exist.

I understand this. The comment I replied to stated the consequences of leaving prints inside cars, not on the paint.

I have done this exact thing OP posted and have the same exact vehicle. The benchy did deform but it came nowhere close to melting or welding to the dash. 100°f, direct sun, and multiple days.

The dash is plastic.

It’s just a benchy

You can use grease on the steel guide rods according to the wiki. They actually recommend it if you suspect the bearings need grease in them.

You shouldn’t need to, but it’s never a bad idea to go through a brand new machine to clean and lube it. You never know what they missed at the factory.

You can also go to the settings for the slicer and turn on zoom to curser location. Wherever your curser is when you zoom in, it will go there instead of the center of the screen.

I like Petg because it prints just like pla when it’s dry and calibrated, but it can withstand being outside without deforming.

I probably should have lowered the layer height on this toy I made for my son, but he won’t notice lol.
