As someone with small kids, this would be my preferred way of working. Even with a dedicated room I can’t help myself losing focus and entering magic adventures with unicorns and building equipment.

I sadly don’t need it, but I remember seeing these things when they came out and I lusted for one so badly. Amazing tech for the time. Thank you very much for sharing this with us.

It looks to me like the through-hole Plating is gone. Could be worth soldering a wire from the top pad, through the hole directly to the “grid” on the back side. Need to scratch a bit of solder mask off the grid fill first.

- Comment on Anyone had any luck running Fusion 360 on Linux? 3 weeks ago:
I used to work as a mechanical engineer, so I am used to CAD Systems since I started with Autocad, went on to Pro/E Wildfire 2, had a stint with NX and Inventor. All of them used productively within the context of professional work.
Fusion was the first CAD I used for my hobby (3D printing) and it is seriously powerful.
Freecad the way it is now (and I tried 1.0 as soon as it got out) is akin to the old days where it wouldn’t let you work with a partially defined sketch or implied confinements by hovering/snapping to the line. I feel like I have to get out a piece of paper and plan out my model before I begin modeling, while using fusion I feel I can just pick it up and develop whatever idea I have right then and there.
It has gotten a lot better - really came a long way since the previous versions where I tried easel as well for the better workflow before 1.0. I never managed to get the same efficiency and usability I get from fusion, despite really trying.
- Comment on Anyone had any luck running Fusion 360 on Linux? 3 weeks ago:
It really has. As a lover of FOSS I can say that there still is an order of magnitude regarding usability, workflow and robustness of the models between freecad and fusion. I dislike everything about autodesk and its business model but I have to admit that fusion is also my go-to when I need to model something fast.

I don’t think so. My kid likes the stories though :)

I use it to have it write stories of our cats and an imaginary cat having adventures with a princess for my kindergarten kid. It’s really good at it :)

- Comment on Bambu Lab announces the Vortek H2C, an automatic nozzle-changing version of the H2D 1 month ago:
Good for you! Everyone is different. It’s nice to be able to sync the filament I set when loading it to the AMS. That isn’t possible with the updated firmware if I use anything other than Bambu Studio. That’s why I haven’t updated and thus have missed out for instance on the TPU for AMS as my current firmware refuses to let me print TPU from the AMS period.
I don’t think one can reasonably defend a company taking away options from users that have already bought the product. What bothers me is the reason they used was demonstrated to be complete BS.
- Comment on Bambu Lab announces the Vortek H2C, an automatic nozzle-changing version of the H2D 1 month ago:
I bought tpu for ams. I cannot use it with the ams unless I upgrade the firmware because the stock one doesn’t let me use tpu with ams.
- Comment on Bambu Lab announces the Vortek H2C, an automatic nozzle-changing version of the H2D 1 month ago:
Yes I’m sure they can. I’m talking more about the selection of the loaded material on the printer itself. Bambulab updated the list through firmware updates and so the slicer already loads the correct profile. It would be of course possible to load any material and set the correct profile in the slicer - but again it’s jumping through hoops.
- Comment on Bambu Lab announces the Vortek H2C, an automatic nozzle-changing version of the H2D 1 month ago:
Yes and no. It‘s about being able to select Special Materials from the Printer After loading to be Synced with the slicer. Happened when they extended the materials range.
- Comment on Bambu Lab announces the Vortek H2C, an automatic nozzle-changing version of the H2D 1 month ago:
I’m still stuck with an old firmware. And if I want lan mode with the new firmware I would have to use another app and lose the printing status and direct controls in orca slicer. So if they add fixes and improvements (new build plates, new filaments) I’m still stuck on an old version. That’s not alarmism, that’s a fact.
- Comment on Bambu Lab announces the Vortek H2C, an automatic nozzle-changing version of the H2D 2 months ago:
I would have to disagree, it’s about the possibility to run my printer using whichever slicer I want - and I prefer orcaslicer to the bambulab offering. Having to jump through hoops and reduced functionality since the firmware update was the reason I took the printers offline and never upgraded. Works faster through LAN as well…

- Comment on Developers, not operators · Victor Wynne 2 months ago:
I could not agree more. AI is Great for Juniors to quickly have something Running and it definitely lowers the barrier of entry, which is fantastic! A colleague of mine told me his son made a PH meter for them and how impressed he was that he could code for a microcontroller. It turned out that he used chatGPT to write the code and couldn’t figure it out once it stopped working for some reason. I still believe this is a great opportunity to really learn and broaden his horizons by troubleshooting and truly getting to understand the system this way. If I was young and couldn’t code I’d use the AI tools in a heartbeat, but making low impact code is entirely different from architecting and writing mission critical code. Very well written article.
