Printed this model recently, it took 60 hours! 7 colors (8 including support filament) on Bambu X1C with 2x AMS. 0.1mm layer height, every single layer had like at least 3 color changes.

If I had to do it again I probably wouldn’t do it multicolor lol - single-color test prints only took about 6 hours.

    Hmm when I hit the blurred image on jerboa, it takes me to the post in the browser.

    that seems a bit like a general issue, that lemmy links, like to different communities, open im a browser, not in jerboa

      I’m having the same problem, you have to be careful not to click on the Pic itself.

      Yeah I’m going to chalk that up to a “feature” lol

      I’m on an iPad, when I selected the pic from my gallery it was oriented properly - but when I posted it was rotated.

      (Yes, I saw it was rotated before hitting Submit - but to correct that I would’ve had to rotate it in my Photos App, which means that it would’ve been rotated incorrectly there instead of here. 🤷‍♂️ This is why we test!)

      Thank you! I was having spool jams a few times during the day, so I was a little freaked each time I went to bed - thankfully, no jams at night 🙌

      I also wish the resolution on his head/face was a little better, especially at 0.1, but with how many color changes per layer the whole piece took I’m not surprised.

      I’m also pretty sure I could’ve sped the print up a bit with a faster infill speed, but with all the color changes on every single layer it probably wouldn’t have mattered much.

    How are you liking the X1C so far? It’s an appealing printer for sure and it’s exciting that companies are releasing more and more capable printers with each day. I might consider getting one of these (or something similar with multi color) at some point in the future if I can ever justify having a second printer.

      I’m loving it! It’s my first 3d printer ever - never even touched one before. (Yeah, I went big lol). I researched the hell out of them before I pulled the trigger, and am very glad I went with Bambu - I suspect had I gone with one of the $200 offerings I would’ve played with it for a week then never again. As it is, I still have tons to tinker with (and troubleshoot) with this one, but it seems like it’s eliminated about 90% of the pain points I hear about from others. (Granted, I literally don’t know what I’m missing lol)
