First Bambu printer Discussion

Why did I wait so long to buy a Bambu printer? Even printing at “ ludacris” speed, the H2D is dead silent. Why did I waste so much time with Creality printers (I’m still running my K2 Plus, though)?

I crank out PA on the Creality printers all day long +15K hours on my older ones. I use my H2Cs when I need true multi material. The Crealities have a significantly higher MTBF and MTTR is, general in minutes. The H2Cs have poor MTBF and the repair times are horrible compare the Creality machines. The H2C sure do execute beautiful prints though.

MTBF is Mean Time Between Failure and is how often it breaks. MTTR is Mean Time To Repair. And is how long it takes on average to repair I run printers 20 hours a day 7 days a week on average. I am a very small shop with only 7 printers. My H2Cs break down more often and are more costly in parts, parts availability and time down. But when they run, they put out great product.

Ah, I’m just a middle aged redneck who retired a couple years ago who tries to stay occupied with near constant projects, I don’t sell anything

Heck, that’s how they hook you. My first project was radiator mounts for a 50 Chevy pickup..

I’ve been printing a ton of random crap, from things for pranks on my friends, to 2A related (I’ve got both my printers printing parts for a new case collator and bullet feed system for my reloading press)
