I have fallen in to the 3D-printing rabbit hole organising my workshop using gridfinity and started modelling my own custom bins. The first one I feel works fine is a bin for the tall Super Dogs from UJK. I made the bin available on makerworld in case anyone else has similar need.


The bin works with any of the rings attached to the dogs and has some space for the accessories. The dogs might be a bit too recessed to be easy to grab, but that is so that you can stack other boxes on top even if you have the big ring on the dog.

It's ok as long as you can "quit anytime you want". :)

Wondering if we should lobby for a 3D printed accessories sub forum.....
 
The same could be done, out of foam or cork, as in insert, for a box. It could be a CNC or Origin project.
Neither of those is a cheaper alternative, but they might be easier to locate?
I've had my eye on a Bambu Labs X1C for a while. Maybe sometime over the winter?

Skip and go for the H2S etc just to get the size and the upgrade for multiple heads.

Of maybe I'll see you my old X1C when I upgrade.... :)
 
I was looking at these the other day and saw a number of posts critical about the X1C not being very fast or reliable. Just not great in general, the H2S seems really good from what I've seen though.

I've been unhappy with my resin printer so it's looking like the H2S is the way to go.

not true from my experience, or several people that recommended it to me. It's actually very nice, I've had very few failures. I've even printed ASA on it (had to tweak a few things).

but in the end, just like a CNC machine, you always wish it was bigger.....

Some prints!

ETA: Just over 1000 hours of printing in 11 months.

As I remember it, everyone loved the X1C, until 2 head units started eclipsing all of them.
I don't know if I would ever need that ability, but it probably doesn't make sense to avoid it? especially at this price-point.
There are still plenty of cheaper models out there, but why start out behind the curve?
 
The H2C is expected to be released in a few months, it will change out the hotend for different colors and reduce purge waste. My X1C and P1S have been very reliable at the price point.

yeah, and there is an upgrade path from H2S to H2C.

Still not clear to me how that's going to work? Just let the stuff in the hotend solidify, and then feed the new filament into it and merge together as it melts?

One tool head and will have multiple hot ends, one hot end per color. It will change hot ends when a color/filament change is required. Similar to what a CNC does with an auto-tool changer. There's some marketing videos out there, still yet to be proven how it will work.

I understand the tool head change part. What they haven’t revealed is what happens to filament still in the hot end. As I said, I’m guessing they will just leave it there and reheat it when switching back, and then the new filament just merged with that. Eventually you gave to purge, but still less than before.
 
I have a Creality K1 Max and will stick with it until the H2S is proven to work or something similar. I'm in no rush to keep beta testing for these companies.
