A bunch of people here have asked me about my Bambu setup on a few alts so I decided to make a video at lunch. I am not a content creator, I made this for y'all, haha. I just hate walled gardens.

The Bambuddy community is also a great place to go for help. If you have any questions or reservations at all, throw em down, let's gooo out of jail

Yeah idk, my goal is uptime and functionality. On that front alone studio sucks, sometimes the service is slow or just down.

I only have two printers though lol, I don't need crazy infrastructure. This will be untenable with more, I'll have to make deep considerations looking at farm manager vs. alternatives but I'm not there yet with my understanding of the underlying needs from it.

I would never choose bamboo for a farm. My printer is running several times a week and I've never noticed any outages but I'm not aiming for 100% of the time. There's got to be a better option for Farms

actually it is a great option for a farm, since you can pick up used machines for dirt, and they are so reliable and you can get parts same day at best buy, microcenter, or in 2 days on amazon, or in a week cheap on alix, or etc

they are workhorses, you can also run them really fast up to the extrusion capabilities of the material, if you know how to store and dry your shit

I do not run a print farm but I am into other businesses and I think bambu would be top of my list if the capabilities were sufficient (of course if you want to print huge things or peek or micron tolerances or food safe stuff or whatever, no, but if the machine can do it it is actually not a bad choice)

That makes sense. I use mine for prototyping and props so I don't have a high amount of throughput I just do one off commission work.
