Bambu Lab is now selling E3D's ObXidian hotends

for its P- and X-series 3D printers direct from its store. With the hotends only previously being available from UK-based E3D directly, this is a step in the direction of convenience for anyone interested in upgrading their Bambu's hot end, as well as a reinforcement of the firm's endorsement of the third-party upgrade. The ObXidians are available to order now, priced at $92 for the complete hotend assembly, or $61.60 for just the hotend itself.

Deuter's new biking backpack is part 3D printed.

Featuring a patchwork of 3D printed "Airstripes" latticework cushions for optimal breathability, cushioning, and, let's be honest, looks–it looks pretty cool–the Deuter Hiline 14 is yet another subtle and useful way to inject some more 3D printing into your other hobbies.

The padding, 3D printed by German polymer tech company Oechsler, joins a list of printing-pimped products that includes Osprey, whose several-year-old UNLTD collaboration with Carbon has been cushioning backs since 2022.

The Hiline 14 is currently only available in Europe for ~€320. (It varies by country.)

It's all coming full circle.

Adidas has correctly identified that not everyone wants their 3D printed shoes to look like blobby, monotone slippers. As such, the company has looked backward for the answer with laces. No pricing info as yet, but the Climacool Laced will be available from Adidas online, in-store, plus select retailers from July 15.

Sunlu's "Save the Date" isn't for a wedding, but it might just be a party if you're after an AMS heater.

Not to be confused with a standalone filament dryer, which Sunlu already offers. The description is brief but clear: It's "a brand new filament dryer to be integrated on the AMS". (Bambu Lab's AMS? Another brand's multi-material system?)

The details? Close to none, but Sunlu said on Instagram that it will cost less than $100.

The launch is planned for July 10 at 7 am (UTC). Given the issues with hygroscopic filaments, this could be a cool addition to any setup, unless you prefer the DIY way. We'll have to wait and see.
