„DO NOT TOUCH.” 😅

1 min read

There’s that legendary sticker on every engineering project that says: “DO NOT TOUCH.” 😅 But seriously… then HOW are we supposed to take it apart?!

There’s that legendary sticker on every engineering project that says:

“DO NOT TOUCH.” 😅

But seriously…

then HOW are we supposed to take it apart?!

In this video, that’s exactly what happens:

A Creality extruder tries very hard to convince us that it’s assembled in a perfectly normal way…
then after removing 2 screws, you suddenly feel like you’ve entered an escape room. 🤣

Wires everywhere.
Hidden design choices.
“Why is THIS here?”
and the eternal classic:
“This definitely wasn’t designed for servicing…”

The best part is that every 3D printer technician knows this exact feeling.

At some point during disassembly, you’re no longer repairing something — you’re taking part in a spiritual journey through the engineer’s state of mind. 😄

🔧 Repair
🔧 Service
🔧 Reverse engineering
🔧 “Who designed this?!” moments

And of course, by the end, everyone says:

“Okay… let’s somehow put it back together.” 😅

Bambu Lab: construction advances on a planned 3-million-printer Shenzhen hub

Bambu Lab is taking a major step toward building one of the world's largest 3D printer manufacturing bases. Its planned “3D Printing Intelligent Manufacturing Headquarters Base” in Shenzhen's Guangming District has moved into site-preparation and construction-access work. The complex is designed for an annual capacity of more than 3 million 3D printers and will combine manufacturing with research and development, component production and materials-related activities.
