Fall might be my favorite time of year for 3D printing. It gives me an excuse to make things like a giant Halloween vampire teeth candy bowl, a personalized coffee cup holder for Grandma, and an interchangeable fall lantern that somehow turned into a clock. All three projects were designed and printed on my Bambu Lab H2D, but none of them require an H2D specifically. As long as your printer has enough build volume and multi-material capabilities, you can make them on other 3

Our family's digital calendar already came with a perfectly functional wall mount. Naturally, I designed another one. The problem was not that the factory mount was bad. It was that after installing a recessed electrical outlet behind our 21.5-inch Apolosign Digital Calendar, there was a tiny chance that part of the outlet box might still be visible from the side.

I tested the BIQU CryoGrip Glacier build plate on my Bambu Lab H2D through dozens of real-world 3D prints. From large PLA projects and rapid prototypes to challenging PLA prints with PETG supports, the Glacier delivered impressive adhesion and an excellent smooth surface finish. I also tested printing with the heated bed effectively turned off and measured approximately 60% lower energy consumption during those tests. But energy savings weren’t what ultimately sold me.

Multi-material 3D printing opens the door to combining unique material properties in a single print including rigid plastics, flexible seals, soluble supports, and more. In this post, I’ll walk through three projects that highlight what works and doesn’t work when mixing materials on modern multi-material printers like the Bambu Lab H2-series.

This 3D printed shower shelf survived 7 years of daily use. See how I redesigned and printed the latest version on the Bambu Lab H2D.

From furniture pads to printable belts, Widget KC goes through what filament is right for your print. Full of real test and experiments each TPU filament is good at something different, it all depends on what you want.
