Re: Orders Shipping List

Thanks!
I don't think they knew / know about my status as an instructor... But you're on to something, because I still showed videos of the SD3 to the solidworks class on sunday and had at least one of the students sold. I should have worked out a commission deal with SD first tongue

Re: Orders Shipping List

Actually its seems they skip around a lot.  Youll see earlier in this section 5xxx shipped and then 67xx then another lower number. 

I am trying to be patient for mine and its coming with 2 spools of filament so i can play a little before needing that.  I am sure my tax money will show before my SD3 does.

It could be sooner, they say they improved to about 50 units a day.  I am hoping this is true, would like go get mine sooner then later.

I ordered on 1/3 and am still waiting.  Order #72xx for SD3.  Never had to advance so much money and not receive anything for it for months.  Not a good way to do business, in my opinion.  If you have that many orders, have you increased your staff, working hours, shifts etc.  Probably not.  What a world we live in.  Seems to me, you had a backlog of Sd2 orders to fill and foolishly started selling the sd3.  From what I've read in these blogs, people are still waiting for Sd2's.  The money I sent in is now paying employees to build sd2's for someone else.  Two months ago I did not know anything about 3d printing or printers.  Now I am well versed in all aspects of this craft, except for the printer its self, and am about to burn out on it before I even have the device......Just rambling this morning, tired of wating.

The main problem is that a lot of the other companies have machines ready to ship within 7 days fully tested. None as cheap but for some people payin a little extra isn't a problem. They need better quality control as you can see filament holder pieces, bed broken, or other problems as soon as the end user receives it.  The wait and then cannot use the machine when they get it is a major problem.  I think the machine is good but it does make people worry if they come in here and read posts.

I am still waiting for mine but I am getting more and more frustrated in the time it takes and seeing issues with people getting theirs.

Re: Orders Shipping List

How long does it take to get filament shipped? I placed an order last Wednesday, saw the $ removed from my account but never received a receipt by email. I actually, was hoping I would have received the 2 roles by now, I live about 2 hours away from the company, but no love!

Re: Orders Shipping List

Getting frustrated too -- 6 weeks in today. It looks like some have received  their SD3 already even although they ordered after me which isn't fair at all!

Re: Orders Shipping List

If you have questions about your order, email support at solidoodle.com and they should respond quickly. I had a couple orders for replacement parts that were taking a while. They were helpful and made sure they were shipped quickly. I found it takes them a couple weeks to ship supplies. I am not sure why it takes them that long but from previous orders, that seems like the average.

Well i asked about mine and was told 4-6 weeks, ordered on 1/18 SD3.  If i was confident in building one, since this would be my 1st I would have cancelled and bought a different one.  Instead I'll wait for my SD3 and hope I can.

Ordered December 16th. The wait has been excruciating, but I've been told, worth it.  I'll let you know after I've set it up.

Re: Orders Shipping List

Tracking showed my S3 arrived at the post office at 6:15am. It didnt budge from there.  It's evening now, and i just walked past the post office. So close, yet so far.

I'll see you on Monday.

Well, I'd actually ordered quite some time before the 29th, (early to mid January) but wasn't given an order #. I actually ended up somehow charging my MC five times by repeatedly pressing confirm. Much as I'd love five solidoodles, it's not in the cards. For whatever reason my charges got stuck in some sort of mastercard limbo. After several anxious emails to customer service, I eventually got a call from John who helped me work out what had happened. I sent payment through paypal directly to solidoodle on the 29th, so that's what I called my "order" date.

For all I know, they started building when I first ordered five solidoodles by accident. Maybe 4 other people will have expedited orders as a result smile 

Regarding bed warpage, that's to be determined. I've noticed some prints starting to peel off, but I'm not sure if this has more to do with my bed temperature than anything else. I wasn't expecting to have the thing so early and I need to pick up a dial indicator and a few other tools for home.

For what it's worth, I don't see any "obvious" warpage on the bed. The packing was quite good, using an expanded foam and large cell bubble wrap to restrain all of the components. If I had to access the adjustment screws it kind of stinks that I have to peel up the kapton. Why not turn the screws around so that way we can adjust bed height from below?

My biggest issue is bed adhesion at this stage. I tried printing Ian Johnson's fan duct but the "ring" that is initially printed that eventually forms the shroud around the nozzle keeps on delaminating. Granted, I've only logged a few hours on the machine, so I have some more experimenting to do. Now all I need is a day off work smile

Grab a 12" straight edge (ruler) and check your bed for flatness.

No trees were harmed in the creation of this email, though some electrons were horribly inconvenienced.

Re: Orders Shipping List

I just got an email today that it is been shipped out. Last night I had a dream that they already shipped out mine.

It is worth waiting. I can't wait to get mine deliver.

Sweet, if I do the math, 50 a day, which is what they say they can do means I will get mine in about 3.2 weeks.  Wow. That's a long time and right at the 8 week mark just about

Re: Orders Shipping List

I have had my sd3 for two weeks now, but have only been home one of those weeks.  I have to echo the words of so many.  It is worth the wait.  I ordereed in July of 2012 and got my SD3 on tuesday a week ago, and I have been having more fun learrning what not to do, and a lot about what to do, thanks to so many fellow solidooodlers many of my mistakes have found quick answers to my ignorance.  I am sure the ratio will improve.  I invite you to share my first week of actual hands on experience. http://www.flickr.com/photos/mysd3/
