Is it compatible with a Mac 10 .45 upper? I’ve only seen the ones using Mac 11/9 uppers chambered in 9mm as the uppers are longer and slimmer.

Interested in what AI models you would recommend for local hosting.

I just got a P1S, and while calibrating filaments, I decided to try 300blkFDE’s settings with my filament profile for Overture PLA Pro. It prints slow, but the results are fantastic, beautiful surface finish, and strong layer adhesion. It may not be necessary to slow PLA down so much, but for something I want to be strong in PLA, I’ll take the added print hours.

From the califlower test, I had a -0.1% skew. Fixed that and adjusted for shrinkage. Just printed another flashider, and it’s much better now. Tight initially, but once worked back and forth, it threads on well. I imagine a tight fit is better than a loose fit.

I haven’t tested tolerance yet. I’ll be printing a cauliflower when I get home. I downloaded the file, so idk what tolerance they had baked into it or if it was a true 1/2×28 thread modeled in.

Unfortunately, the released Beta files still only support Gen 3 at the moment. I was looking into it for a Gen 4 slide, but no dice as of yet.

It’s at 25.5mm/s

So reddit is dead, GAFS is going to need a new platform. Would it be possible to get them to migrate over here?

Appreciate the info, im on the latest version of Orca, just waiting for the buffer to come in so that I can use my AMS.

I bought the combo, and for whatever reason, Bambu shipped the printer, AMS, and additional parts I ordered as 3 separate shipments.

That’s what I was worried about. It’s on 1.6 out of the box, but im seeing that in order to use my AMS 2 Pro that it needs 1.8. Will Orca not work on LAN? I dont really feel like I need nor want everything I do going through Bambu services.

I had some comments on one of my posts saying that Siraya Tech PET-CF and PET-GF have been good for them. I picked some up and plan to give it a go.

Appreciate the info, Im still entirely new to 90% of these materials as I only have experience with standard PLA and PETG. I just pulled the trigger on a P1S so let the learning curve begin.

Filaments I’m starting with: Polymaker - PA6-CF, PLA Pro, and ASA Siraya Tech - PET-CF and PET-GF Overture - PLA Pro, TPU 95A

Ended up getting the AMS 2 combo with hardened steel nozzles and hotends. Im gonna just look around for an air fryer at local thrift stores as the Sunlu E2 seems to be the only filament dryer that can reach 90C+ and $360 for it is a bit insane.

It’s definitely odd, but at least you can use the account.

Out of curiosity, how are you drying nylons and keeping them dried in storage? I’m about to pick up a P1S and have your settings saved, mainly looking at PA6-CF and PET-GF initially. I’ve seen lots of suggestions for drying, ranging from a goodwill airfryer up to a vacuum chamber. Im looking at the Sunlu E2 as it can reach 110C to be used for annealing as well, but $360 is a bit steep for it.

Also, with the finished PA6-CF being susceptible to moisture and losing some of its strength, do you ever seal it, or is it strong enough over time without needing to? I was wondering if cerakote would be a good choice for keeping moisture out, but I haven’t found much on the topic.

I was confused then, I just tried looking up the Bravo0016 account earlier and it said the user has been banned.

Well, that didn’t take long… They’ve got it out for you man.

How does the print quality compare between them, speeds, and how well do they handle CF Nylon and other engineering filaments?

So is the micro Swiss the better option? The hardened steel options from Bambu labs seem to be the cheapest, followed by BTT with theirs that is quick change, with the micro Swiss being the most expensive with the diamond tips.

Do you have a link to some of those prints? Im still leaning towards the P1S with AMS 2. What nozzle size are people tending to use with PA6-CF, 0.6mm? What brands of filament tend to work best? My knowledge up to this on the ender 3 was just PLA and PETG as I never had an enclosure to try nylon.
