I use my Bambu PS1 almost every day. I purchased a used unit with low hours and working fine. For antenna parts, Balun and unun boxes/holders, radio add ons and such. Currently using PETG but will move to ASA at some point for even better UV/Sun exposure life. I even made replacement volume knobs for my old Kenwood Mobile radios. Very useful tool. Learning curve to the point of being useful was very short. Work flow was simple. A FreeCAD review would be nice, as my experience has been mostly AutoCad and Fusion360. I want to do more modifications and direct design for some parts.
Stl modification, scratch design and troubleshooting would be great topics to cover. Also….. I passed my Amateur EXTRA test last Saturday! Glad to get that done…. Now it is on to my next challenge… the CW learning path. 73!

My neighbor's kid has one that runs entirely from a page on the internet! Some uses, like 3D parts development, require very pricey printers. Other uses can get by with the Micro Center printers. I am paralyzed by the vast array of choices... 73 Dan KJ5IZK On Mon, Oct 19, 2026 at 7:18 AM Richard Bonica via BVARC <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: To all, Would you all be interested in a presentation on Freecad, 3d Printing and taking designs from thought to reality?
