Hi, welcome to our forum! Please introduce yourself. =)

hello @JerJer

You need to define the problem in detail and maybe one of our knowledgeable users can assist you.

Have a great weekend

Hello there Doug!

Here is my situation with the 3D Printing Module: Heating problem / Change Filament

Kind regards,
JerJer

Hi All, just another newbie here… Hobbiest and I just ordered my snapmaker. Havn’t received it yet but I’m prepping for the great adventure with 3D printing… cheers

Hi @Tigsdigs

You are going to have such a good time with the Snapmaker. It is not all easy, however a little care and patience and you will be like the rest of us having fun.

Bonjour à tous.
Nouveau sur le forum, et bientôt possesseur d’une machine, je pense avoir besoin de conseils, idées et astuces.
Je suis modeliste ferroviaire (ech: On30 ----Echelle Américaine, et pour vous situer, des trains de cow-boys )
Je fait des batiments, que je fait actuellement découper par des prestataires.
:alien:1-La machine découpe t-elle du bois (ep:3mm)
:alien:2-Quels logiciels utilisez-vous?
:alien:3-Il va falloir m’ aider pour l’impression 3D, car là, c’est nouveau pour moi.

:alien:-Merci de m’acceuillir dans votre forum.

Hello @cback

hahaha I had to translate you message to English.

Doug, the newbie here, welcome to the world’s fastest growing party and I hope you have some fun with all of us. A good start for you, if you have not already found it, is the Snaplinks page, which contains many great references that will help you.

Keep having fun

Hello @FSD333
There were two posts shared on our facebook group about the testing settings for laser engraving and cutting:

My name is Brian and I was born and raised in Toronto Canada but am now living in Switzerland. I’ve been a computer and techno freak since the late 50s early 60s building mock computers out of cardboard boxes and super-8 reels as a child. My first introduction to programming was done via punch cards and paper tape.

Later in college I was introduced to the Univac with large wired core memory frames. In the early 80s I worked selling calculators and video game consoles and was privileged to get my hands on the first Commodore PET computer sold in Canada which I learned to program in Basic.

I built my first computer from scratch based on the 6503 chip - the little brother of the famous 6502 as used in the original Apples, Commodore Pets BBC Micros etc and great grandfather of the ARM (Acorn Risc Machine) Processors in use today. This first computer which runs at 1 MHz, has a 2 digit display, hexadecimal keypad, program storage on tape cassettes and must be programmed in pure machine language is still in operation to this day - D/A interfaced to a moog like synthesizer.

Later I bought an Acorn Atom on which I also learned Lisp and Forth programming, and for which I designed and built a Modem Interface and communication software for connecting to the various BBS systems prevalent at that time as well as the fledgling Internet which was just beginning to open up.

I am an Electronic Engineering Technician and currently work for an international company which designs and produces conveyance systems, as an IT support specialist creating customized solutions and databases as well as overseeing a number of CAD systems in use.
Now nearing retirement I have a number of hobbies, music recording and production, astronomy, woodworking, and now “Snapmaking”. I chose the Snapmaker because of its multifunctionality as well as it’s robust and precision mechanics and was also very inmpressed by it’s development team.:+1: :ok_hand:.

Welcome @BriHar

Glad to hear old techo’s are still around… I started programming in FORTRAN IV on an ICL 1901a running the George 3 operating system in 1971. In 1973 I moved to an IBM 360 50i and so on for years I was Systems Programmer/Engineer. I programmed in many languages. Retired and now program in Visual Basic.NET and love playing with the Snapmaker.

This Forum has many great and talented users and sharing of ideas/information is exceptional.

So have some fun

Doug

Hi,

i am Thorsten. I am interested in 3D Printing since the first Concept of RepRap Community was published - but never owned or build a 3D Printer. This Modell i just ordered today.

I owned my first Computer in 1987 (Atari ST), I am 45 years old and actual I am in a re qualification program to get an software developer which was 2 years full-time and ended now in January 2019.

I worked in IT-Support the last 20 years and bought hard- und software for companies and also worked as IT-Supporter.

I used Music Programms since Atari ST Sequenzer like Steinberg. In 2008 I switched vom PC to Mac.

In the 80er Years I started a little bit with scale modeling. This was a Hobby with my Father, which died 20 Years ago. This Year my mother died on Cancer and I had no time for hobbies.

So the combination of Hobby and Job has always influenced me. I also started with Robotics (Lego Mindstorms).

I hope to discuss with other members and wish you a merry Christmas

Sincerly
Thorsten

Hello @tkreutz

Doug the newbie here, welcome to the party. We all come from many and varied backgrounds and many of us are learning about 3D printing, laser etching and CNC engraving and it is fantastic. We are having fun. I am sure you will too. Remember to have a look at reference links in SnapLinks -- Wiki

Hello world,
I am Sven from Germany. Just bought a “snappi” a few weeks ago. Newbie.
Was thinking about a 3D printer for years now.
When I saw snapmaker 3in1 I knew that was the one I want :slight_smile:
I am just fiddeling around these days with stuff form thingiverse to learn the basics.
I may be go deeper into modelrailroad stuff (1:87).
But for now I just print stuff for christmas time :wink:
Is it possible to change filament while a print btw? Did not found anything about that in the manual.
Have fun,
Sven

There is no official way to change filament during print. Some have tried, you can check forum entries for people who have tried.

Hello everyone,
My name is Gauthier, from France. And I am a geek maker for aeromodelism :slight_smile:
I did graduate studies in mechanics, computer science and robotics and I would be retired in less than a year.
I already have a Prusa 3D printer since more than 4 years, a 800mm x 800mm wooden home made CNC router driven by Grbl and a second large home made 3D printer with about 200mm x 800mm work area.
I recently ordered a new Snapmaker 3-in-1 that will allow me to further improve my aeromodelism parts manufacturing.
I am also member of a fablab at Bordeaux (France).
@++;
Gauthier.

Hello,
I’ve got the Snapmaker 3-in-1 as a christmas present and it has been running continuously for the last 5 days
:wink:. I am impressed about the quality of the prints. The documentation and Snapmaker3D software is easy to understand. I was suprised how fast the first results were available.
