Fresh Look
There's a new UI on the X1C – if you update your firmware.

In the same late-April update that unlocked the AMS 2 and AMS HT drying functions on Bambu Lab's X- and P-series 3D printers, the X1C interface was changed to match the H2D. Of course, if you haven't yet, updating your firmware may require you to download Bambu Lab's controversial 1.08.05 security update.

A new Tinkercad update lets you massively scale up your designs.

In addition to quadrupling the possible size of your workspace (now 2,000 units squared), you can change the workspace units from the default millimeters and inches to centimeters, meters, and feet. That, and apply a scaling factor of up to 1:1000.

The math hurts my head, but a post by Tinkercad about the changes shows how it's possible to fit an actual-size model of the Empire State Building into the app, something that would be impossible before.

OneBlade to Rule Them All
Philips has joined Printables Brands with its "Fixables" initiative.

There's just one model for now – a replacement beard comb for its OneBlade razor – but the program will result in a "digital library of open-access 3D-printable replacement parts for selected Philips products," says LePub, Philips' partner in the initiative.

Philips is just the latest to join Printables' now rather expansive Brands program, which encourages companies to share official mods, repair parts, and interesting models.

Colorful DIY kicks are within your grasp.

With Adidas renewing attention on single-piece 3D-printed sneakers with its new Climacool shoes, home-printing options are expanding rapidly, too.

Recreus' footwear-focused Filaflex filaments have recently been updated to introduce subtle new colors through a collaboration with Footwearology – a design lab and educational resource for shoe fabrication. Besides their regular colors, the company's Filaflex Foamy, Foamy 95, and 82A filaments are now available in Oat (pictured), Lavender, Mint, Azure, and Dusk hues.

Making Good on Goods
Is the trade war cooling already?

China and the U.S. have agreed to a temporary 90-day reduction of 115% on their blanket tariffs. But don’t pop the champagne just yet. Printing prices that have stepped up over recent months are unlikely to drop suddenly. The costs incurred so far need to be eaten by someone, and could well end up spread across any new stocks imported under the lower rates.
