Great video..Go Blue

Thanks 👍Hail. =)

Nice overview of a pretty slick tool, looking forward to your upgraded tutorial!

[@HLModTech]

Thanks and THANK YOU for the suggestion. Sorry I forgot to track down exactly which user it was. 🤦‍♂️

[@radish6691]

@@HLModTech No worries, I never want credit anyway...I’m old enough that my vanity died years ago. 😆 It’s enough that I was able to contribute in some small way!

Colour prints are fun.

[@HLModTech]

It has come a long way since my Replicator 2x or Geeetech mixing machines. 💯👍

Talk about unfortunate timing, the day after this video dropped they released a major upgrade to the tool. I think the automatic palette reduction is pretty nice, I’m not so good at picking colors. I have nightmares about all the paint chips at the big box home improvement stores. 😅

[@HLModTech]

I actually noticed that when I was making the upgrade video. :-) Lol I ran into a snag with my system though so we’ll see if I can figure that out this morning and push that one out. Have you run into the issue that one user mentioned that you only get limited uses?

[@radish6691]

@@HLModTech No, but I’ve only made a few. I’m curious how many keychains that person was churning out. Maybe they have an Etsy custom keychain shop? 😆

I seem to be having an issue where I cannot get all the elements the same height. It looks perfect in the draft, but when imported to Bambu, not all the layers are the same. Plus the image in Bambu looks really odd. It's a 4 colour Narwhal with glasses. One eye and the outline are not equal to the rest. I have adjusted everything to be the same 2mm, but it keeps failing. Or rather I keep failing to understand why or how to fix it.

[@HLModTech]

I am not really sure what would be going on. Since it is an app I do not have any tricks I can share... if you want to share the image I can see if I can whip up a Tinkercad tutorial to help with it. You can reach me at hlmodtech gmail.

@@HLModTech Thank you for the offer. Email sent.

Don't start enjoying this tool too much. If you make too many in a row (even if you delete them in your list), they'll block you from making more with a "request too frequent" error. I can't seem to get past that error now.

[@HLModTech]

Thanks for the tip. Good thing my usual strategy is picsvg and Tinkercad. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnSumYypoLdrmdU

[@P__Star]

@@HLModTech I've reached out to support to see what the hourly or daily limit is and how long the block will remain. If they answer me I will update.

[@radish6691]

How many did you make in what period of time before the error started?

[@dosdont]

Always fails for me

[@HLModTech]

What step is it failing on? You may prefer my Tinkercad steps instead. This is a text keychain, but if you are interested I can dig up the same idea I have created with images. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnSumYypoLdrmdU

[@dosdont]

@@HLModTech Right off the bat, I try uploading pictures and it shows a red box with an error message. I guess I could try a simple cat picture but that's not useful to me, I want to use the picture I want. Oh well, too good to be true

[@HLModTech]

Any chance it is a file type they do not accept? Maybe try taking a screen shot of your image. How many colors are in your image?

[@dosdont]

@@HLModTech Not many colours as it's a grey scale and removed the background so it's basically black, white and bit of grey shades I guess, so I don't think that's it and if it can't accept jpg then I wouldn't waste my time as 99% of things I'd upload would be in jpg. I might try different pictures when I think of something else to upload.

[@HLModTech]

You are welcome to shoot me the image and I will give it a try. You can reach me at hlmodtech gmail.
