3D Printing Review - Bambu Lab X1 Carbon 3d printer

[cwbullet]

I just got the textured PEI plate a few days ago, and with both PLA and Tough PLA from Bambu (a pretty great material if you believe YouTuber strength testers) it does NOT require glue. Sticks great, pops right off with no residue.

It does put a texture on the bottom of the parts, but it actually is smoother to the touch than it looks and is quite attractive, IMHO.

Nice to be able to just crank out a print without laying down glue first.

Haven't tried anything else on it yet, but it's marked for PLA, PC, ABS, TPU.

No glue is needed with Prusas. It have been that way for 6-8 years.

Will add one tip. Do not print PC or PC blend without a glue stick. You might get luck a couple times, but eventually, you will destroy your build plate.

I finally caved in and got a Creality 3 S1 Pro. Getting my feet wet before I drop $1500 on anything. Very first print attached. PLA. One of the prints that they ship on the SD card. I must admit, the print quality is a little better than I expected. Now, to get some filament. Well, other than PLA, we have a ton of that (kids had a tiny starter printer, long story).

Not a bad print. Congrats.

Thanks. There's a noticeable ripple right near it's left eye that seems to run the full height. I'm wondering if there was a little bit of something in a belt

Can you fit a C motor in the bottom???

Probably an E, but might need some fins, or at least some base drag
