Assume some of you have seen this (quite impressive IMO) video. For anyone using the same combination: Fusion + Bambu + AMS I'm curious about a few things after seeing some snips of the workflow
- Seems like he invoked a 'print 3D' command from within F360? So is that amounting to basically a 'Save-as' .STL or .STEP file of whatever part model is currently being edited?
- if you had a multi-body CAD part (example a larger part from which you segmented into constituent parts to fit your plate for example, does F360 spit out the corresponding bodies as separate print files?
- when he did his color layers like that, are those also separate bodies within F360 but still stacked/mated to one another from which then within Studio you then define make this one black, make that one white etc. but obviously filament change on the fly since its all one happy welded part

(btw, I might be using different CAD lingo than what Fusion uses but to elaborate - if I had a part A standalone it is called Body-A. If I split it into 2 components by a plane passing through the part or any kind of curve extruded through 'A', then it becomes Body-B & Body-C. They are now separate entities but obviously related to A by removing the split command.)

 
Very impressive for sure. I'd LOVE to be able to print enclosure panels like that!

But, after about 6 minutes of combine these layers, flip this in 6 dimensions, connect this imaginary plane to this helix in the femuritic membrane and then select all 27 segments and change them to mercury, add a guessing algorithm to make sure the finish is satisfactory, select all 12 possible filaments but don't worry that we only have 2 cuz it comes out in the result as long as you don't want extra wedges to dislocate, and on and on and on.......I suddenly realized that I want a 3D printer almost (but not quite) as bad as I want a quadruple frontal lobotomy.

Well, now I have 750 bucks to spend on something I'll actually use. Unless I just want to print little tug boats.

Man how sad.

Just think of this, a front panel to a microcontroller machining calculator, with embedded LED indicator lights, and embedded flexible buttons to make selections. You can have a case that is water tight, and that you can clean with ease without worrying about leaks.

Buy me a printer and I'll make you anything you want :cool: :p just kidding, I can buy my own and still make you anything you want
