24 hours with the Bambu H2D - Color me impressed

[Ray Price]

Had my H2D for about a day, and I've got to say, the machine / slicer / ecosystem clearly shows how they've gathered the following and presence that they have.

Everything seems to be complete and detailed.  Unpacking showed how much thought and engineering went into getting the machine safely to its destination and minimizing setup time.

The monitoring is phenomenal. Aside from the camera(s) on board, the alerts and warnings are really impressive.  So far I've had one to grease the lead screws and one to notify me that slot 2 of the AMS was encountering higher than expected resistance.  Still investigating, but the really impressive thing is that as the messages show up in Bambu Studio, you can click on them to be taken right to the Bambu Wiki with clear explanations of the issue and recommendations for resolution.  The explanations generally go beyond just "Do this" and spend time explaining why it needs to be done, and  explanations of why an alternative might not be the best choice.

Print quality and speed are amazing.  Haven't done too much multi-color printing yet.  Printed a benchy and a poop chute, and the quality of the 0.24 layer height poop chute was really amazing.

I have been using Bambu filament initially just to give a complete Bambu experience but am now expanding to my collection of inland filament.  So far so good.  ATM I'm using the Bambu PLA profile with the Inland PLA+, based on reading forums.  Will also try the eSun PLA+.  MC has been making so many changes with their filament lately, not sure eSun is still the PLA+ provider.

As Clough42 said - It just works, no tinkering required.

We have H2D at work, and the main problem we've had is the stupid nozzle cover. We don't do multi color, but have multiple AMS units to easly switch between our various filaments we need, and put support material in the little single unit. 

As far as Inland Filament - just look at the window on the box. If it is a rounded window and has a green leaf on the box, it is eSun. If it is a hexagonal window, it is Polymaker.

Thanks!  Looks like I've got all Hex windows (PLA and PLA+), so Polymaker it is.

They've got a ton of varieties.  Will have to experiment to see what fits best.

Yo there Ray,

I'm THRILLED to see how Excited you are about your H2D! I honestly wish I had one!

Even so - honestly - the print quality is quite amazing with my Elegoo Carbon knockoff - and that suits me for now...

Am curious to know - in which State you live in...    Again - just curious...

-K

Thanks Kurt!

I'm in the great state of Kansas! right near Kansas City.

Ah yes, Kansas - I shot thru Kansas back in like Early March - on my way from SoCal to OH! I saw a LOT of Windmills there in Kansas - if I am not mistaken - seen from highway 70!
