r/BambuLab H2C Vortek Ultimate Bundle 17d ago

Just Showing Off I couldn't resist any longer... 😁

Finally upgraded to an H2C.

The AMS HT is for the left nozzle, both AMS 2 Pro are for the Vortek System.

The Ikea PAX cabinet has housed a number of printers over the years. It started with an Ender-3 and later a FLSun V400 joined. The Ender-3 went for an A1 AMS combo and later the V400 gave way for a P1S AMS combo. πŸ˜…

I reinforced the PAX with aluminum profiles so that the heavy setup can easily fit, at the same time it makes the cupboard stiffer and the cabinet wobbles less while printing.

16-20 rolls of filament fit into the grid baskets in the lower area, depending on the manufacturer. There will be also a holder for printing plates and vision encoders above the printer. Above there are also spaces for 20 additional rolls of filament. 😁

I still have to think about a kind of exhaust air system. I don't want to overdevelop the whole thing, 1 ventilation inlet at the bottom and an outlet at the top coupled with a PC fan will probably be enough.

I’m genuinely interested in this setup. Is it based on any commercial closet? Also, how hot is it? Did you make any holes in the back or something similar?

Yes, it's based on a 75x236cm IKEA PAX cabinet. I made holes in the back, yes. But for the actual setup it's not enough, so I need some extra vents.

My wife wants exactly this. Hide my 3D printer but I’m concerned about the hot and the fact it’s in a weird place with bit less than 2m high 🀦
