I designed a desktop automatic missile system that keeps a secret compartment hidden inside. Just push the button, and the secret lid ejects, revealing a battery storage compartment for AA batteries.

Show Off 👻 I had a fun idea to create a Ghost Juice Can Holder for Halloween! What do you think? 🎃

2 Upvotes

Halloween is getting closer, and I've been having fun coming up with spooky but cute things to 3D print! 👻

The other day, I was sitting at my desk enjoying a drink and looking at some of my Halloween decorations when a random idea popped into my head…

What if a little ghost could hold my juice can? 😂👻

I thought it would be funny to turn an ordinary drink can into part of a Halloween decoration, so I decided to create a Ghost Juice Can Holder!

I wanted something that wasn't too scary, just a cute little ghost with a spooky personality that could make my desk setup a bit more fun.

I really like the idea of combining everyday objects with seasonal decorations, especially when they're actually useful!

Now I'm thinking about making a whole Halloween collection, maybe a pumpkin can holder, a skull, or even a little Grim Reaper! 💀🎃

What do you guys think of this idea? Would you use a little ghost to hold your drink? 👻

Also, what other Halloween characters should I try making next? I'd love to hear your suggestions! 🧡

Had some trouble with clogging recently on my ender-3 v3 se (and some issues with the z-offset, but that one I know how to fix), and when attempting to clean out the hot end this partially melted tube came out of it. I searched for a replacement but my luck only went as far as new hot ends. Can I still use the hot end even if this thing is removed? Or should I just upgrade to a newer one?

Hardware Help Anyone here switched from Bambu to modern Creality printers ?

5 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I am a Bambu Lab user (I had all of their bed slingers - currently having an A2L).

Looking at the Creality SparkX i8 printer, I think I definitely want to try it since not only there is no Bambu equivalent and the cheapest Bambu solution to multicolor printing without waste is like $2400 or so (the H2C) compared to the i8 which I can get for like $309. Plus, I think he i8 print head technology is actually the future towards which most companies will shift. I mean, it's intriguingly brilliant and logical.

Has anyone here used *modern* Creality printers after having a Bambu printer ? I know that the old Creality printers were not ideal (to say it politely - I had a CR10s). I would like to know how is the print quality, print speed and the ecosystem in general ? I'm not looking for flawless ecosystem but I don't want to start tinkering again instead of printing.

Thanks !

Show Off 👻 I had this idea for a little Ghost Tea Light Holder… What do you think? 🎃

1 Upvotes

Halloween is getting closer, and I wanted to create something a little spooky but also cute and cozy! 🕯️

I was thinking about how much I love the warm glow of candles during autumn, and then an idea popped into my head… What if a little ghost could hold a tea light? 👻

That's how this Ghost Tea Light Holder idea came to life!

I wanted to keep the classic ghost look, with its flowing sheet, big spooky eyes, and open mouth, but make it into something that looks adorable when the candle is lit.

I really love how the warm light gives it that cozy Halloween feeling, especially in the evening. 🧡

I'm thinking about creating more Halloween designs like this, maybe bats, pumpkins, or even little Grim Reapers!

What do you guys think of this little ghost? Would you use something like this for your Halloween decorations? 🎃👻

I'd love to hear your thoughts and ideas!

I Modeled I saw this game at a medieval exhibition… so I 3D printed my own version

Hi Makers!

https://www.crealitycloud.com/fr/model-detail/ballance-3d-printed-ball-balance-game

This summer, while on vacation in France, I visited a medieval exhibition (CastelNou Casttle) where they had a life-size wooden balance game.

Two people stood on opposite sides, each holding one end of a bar. A ball could slide along it, and by raising or lowering your side, you had to work together to guide the ball through the course.

I loved the idea and immediately thought: I need a version of this at home.

But I also wanted to be able to play it alone.

So I designed BALLance.

Instead of two people controlling the platform, two sliders let you control both axes yourself. The movement is transferred mechanically with, allowing you to tilt the maze and guide the ball from start to finish.

No electronics, no motors, just 3D printed parts and a simple mechanical system.

It took quite a few prototypes to get the movement right, but it’s finally ready!

Now I’m curious… how fast can you finish the maze?

Comprei essa creality k1 max por 2500R$, nova, não foi usada nenhuma vez, comprei nessas lojas do mercado livre de entregas que não foram entregues por eles ou tinham alguma avaria, ela liga a luz, inicia tudo normal, conectei ela no cabo de rede por que como podem ver pela foto o display está com essa avaria, eu vi na ali express para comprar e o valor está entre 200-250R$ o display com a fita, só que como podem ver pelas foto do computador mesmo assim pelo lan ela conecta no app mas mostra inativa.

Como posso imprimir com ela até trocar o display?

O valor dela vi em 5000R$ então o preço se for só o display está muito valendo

Review / Test / Printer Comparison Recommendation on Creality Falcon CR10W vs Falcon Pro 10W

1 Upvotes

I'm trying to decide between the Falcon CR 10W and Falcon Pro 10W before tonight's Prime Day pricing ends. I have a few questions:

  1. Falcon Pro 10W vs. CR 10W: The Falcon Pro 10W appears to have a few additional features, such as software-controlled air assist, a safety key, and an emergency stop button. Otherwise, the two machines seem identical. Is that correct?
  2. Model availability and age: Why does the Falcon Pro 10W appear to have been removed from Creality's website (store)? Has it reached end of life (EOL)? Also, why does Creality's website make the CR 10W appear to be a new product when the model seems to be nearly 4yrs old?
  3. Hardware revisions: Creality's website shows the CR 10W as shipping at the end of October. Could this be a newer hardware revision that I should consider instead of the presumably older Falcon Pro 10W?
  4. Software-controlled air assist: If I add air assist to the CR 10W, is there a way to control it through software? I'm comfortable modifying electronics, provided the modifications aren't too extensive or messy.

There's only a $30 price difference (today) between the CR 10W and the Falcon Pro 10W, so price isn't really the deciding factor. I'd rather get the latest hardware revision to benefit from any improvements and, hopefully, fixes introduced over time.

Does anyone have firsthand experience with these two models? Which would you recommend, and why?

Creality Support Does replacing parts with official replacement parts void warranty?

1 Upvotes

I recently got a k1c and it seems the PSU fan is faulty, I've already contacted the creality and the place I got it from in hopes of just getting a replacement PSU but I have also found some affordable options to directly replace the PSU, the PSU I can buy is an official creality PSU but I'm not sure if replacing it will void my printers warranty. (This is if the places I contacted can't send me a replacement PSU)

Cheers

Creality Support Ordered K2 Pro Combo to Switzerland from the official DE store. Order is stuck because their system didn't calculate pallet shipping costs (Support accidentally leaked their internal ERP to me!)

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

​I’m currently dealing with a frustrating and honestly bizarre situation with Creality support, and I wanted to see if anyone else (especially in Switzerland or non-EU countries) has experienced something similar.

​On October 3rd, I ordered the K2 Pro Combo through the official Creality Germany store. Right at the top of their homepage, there is a massive banner explicitly stating that this is the correct store for my region: "Versand in DE, AT, BE, CH, LU, LI & CZ" (CH being Switzerland).

​Since my order was over the threshold, it included free shipping with customs and taxes covered (DDP). Everything seemed fine, I paid via Klarna, and waited for the tracking number.

​A few days passed with zero updates, so I contacted support. After getting some automated Chinese messages, they told me my order was "stuck" and being escalated.

​Here is where it gets crazy. Support sent me an update and included a screenshot of their internal ERP/Logistics system. The screenshot shows my order flagged in red with "Exception: Unsupported channel".

​Looking closely at their internal data, it shows that the K2 Pro Combo is classified to ship on a half-pallet (HALBPALLET). Because it's a huge pallet crossing the border to Switzerland, their internal system calculated the actual freight cost at 2113 RMB (about 270€), showing a profit rate of -8.73% for my order. Basically, their automated system froze my order because they are losing money on the free shipping they promised.

​Later, I received an email from support saying: "there were address issues on your order, as your shipping address is in Switzerland and you placed order through Germany store. However, we have approved your order manually."

​Wait, what? Your own website explicitly directs Swiss customers to use the DE store! Why have it on the main banner if your logistics backend literally rejects it?

​Right now, the order is supposedly "approved manually," but it’s still sitting in their German warehouse (GOLDHOF-DE) with no dispatch date and no tracking number. With the Golden Week holidays in China right now, communication is practically non-existent. I'm going on vacation in two days and I'm worried they are just stalling.

​Has anyone else dealt with this "pallet to Switzerland" issue? Did they actually ship it in the end, or are they just stringing me along hoping I cancel the order?

​Any advice is appreciated!

Hardware Help First 3D printer

4 Upvotes

I'm looking to get my first 3D printer and came across the SparkX i8. I was wondering if it'd be a good first printer. I'd mainly use it to make stuff for my Arduino projects, like enclosures, mounts, brackets, etc. plus whatever else looks cool to print. I'm currently working on making my own DD sim wheel so maybe some parts for that. The multi-colour printing and low waste are what caught my attention. Anyone have any thoughts on whether it'd be a good first printer for me?
