UPDATE: Changed from 4 to 5 stars! After reading the manufacturer’s wonderfully thoughtful response below, I felt it was only fair to update my rating. Wham Bam has already explored the very solution I suggested, and it turns out that ongoing changes to eufyMake’s image-recognition software have made a reliable fix difficult. I really appreciate their transparency, attention to detail, and commitment to improving the experience for their customers. It’s wonderful to see a company that cares so much about its products!
Original Review:
I’m genuinely impressed by the quality of the ULTIM8 Jig. It’s exceptionally well made, thoughtfully designed, and makes positioning and securing materials for printing so much easier. I really can’t recommend it enough!
My only frustration is that eufyMake Studio’s AI contour recognition frequently mistakes the fixtures and cam locks for part of the wooden materials I’m printing on. This can make accurately detecting the boundaries of my materials more challenging than it should be.
I wonder if experimenting with different colors or finishes for these components might help the software distinguish them more reliably from the materials they’re holding.
Aside from that, this is an outstanding product, and I’m very grateful that Wham Bam developed such a thoughtful solution for E1 owners. Highly recommended!
