3 Things I Like about the Bambu Lab X1 Carbon 3D Printer

[Lorenz.Machine]

As someone who just wanted a printer that works for a professional environment it's awesome. Tired of printers that end up as projects.

Most just want a printer that works and works well. Bambu lab printers are exactly that. Next level 3D printing.

Closed source and closed ecosystem in 3D printing are a deal killer for me. It's a shame, because the print quality from that machine is amazing.

[garrydye]

This is literally the only guy who is not an advertisement Whooore for other companies. Almost everyone else will literally just give a 90% positive review to anyone and everyone sending them free machines. Its even worse in the woodworking industry where the machines are usually more expensive.

You can use it in Local LAN mode too without cloud not just sd card when trying to avoid the cloud.

[woodwaker]

I agree with most of your likes and dislikes. Bambu cloud was down Thursday or Friday evening and caused problems for a lot of us. There was no indication, just that prints went no where. I thought it was an error on my part. It came back up and the prints started by themselves. The Lan option is not a real solution, as it is too limited. I hope they will develop a real full LAN option

[decordova.]

When I hear closed printer ecosystem I just get reminded of HP printers and their ability to brick your printer.

I actually enjoy my prusa simply because it feels like a product from 20 years ago. No subscriptions, no cloud, no restrictions... it's just a tool that you're in control of

[doutlaw]

I totally understand the effort you put in to do this . We as a maker community probably can not thank you enough !

[otto]

I don't like shorts: No way to jump forward/backward, no line where you are in the video and you are forced to stay above the video.

He sounds like a smiling friends character and I can’t get it out of my head

Been printing since 6 years, never seen the benefit of open source. If a part breaks down i buy it from the manufacturer anyway. If you wanna hack it or clone it then open source may help you with that :)

[keegansimpson]

I believe you can switch the printer to LAN mode. Multicolor prints are generally wasteful, with the exception of some purpose built hardware. You can print color changing calibration towers and remove the need for a purge tower, as the printer purges out the back anyways

[StormBurnX]

Definitely a tool not a hobby/tinker machine. It's nice to have some for work and some for fun :)

[adamaref]

There has been updates. You can now use the printer with Lan so no servers involved and the spare parts are super available and incredibly cheap. The entire hot end assembly replacement is $29, I mean come on.

Straight up honestly from Angus there, that’s highly appreciated and fully respected! Thanks

With you videos I now want to get a 3d printer and start printing and making stuf

[VincentGroenewold]

Yeah, we've all been burned already with totally closed systems, I'm not investing anymore in something I can't at least try to fix myself or keep using.

[mitsuracer]

I'll never understand the people that buy a 3d printer for the sake of screwing with a 3d printer. The whole point is to have way to make custome parts.

Everyone be like we want open source!
Same people: Apple products are amazing.
