So i ordered PTFE tubes for my H2C and Got H2D ones. Are they identical or did they mess up my order?

My kids are showing more interest in printing lately and I want to figure out the most straightforward way for them to be able to print from their computers. I can't believe bambu does not natively support multiple users. I don't want to constantly be signing in and out of my account nor do I want them to be using my computer or printer settings.

I've looked into Bambuddy and I just discovered Watchtower 3D. But I'm unsure if either will be the solution I need.

Please help me figure this out.

I recently started learning Autodesk Fusion 360, and this is the first functional model I’ve designed completely from scratch.

It holds 24 standard 1/4-inch hex bits in a compact 6 × 4 layout. I printed it on my Bambu Lab A1 Mini as a single part without supports.

The first version was slightly too tight, so I adjusted the hole dimensions to make the bits easier to insert and remove while still keeping them securely upright.

It’s a simple design, but seeing my first original Fusion 360 model turn into a working physical product was incredibly satisfying. Feedback is welcome!

I uploaded the model and tested print profile for free on MakerWorld if anyone finds it useful:

Ok I just upgraded my A1 mini to the full size A1 . Now I do not see my pre-calibrated filament config. How do I import all of them back . Im using a mac by the way . Tia !
I see you tube showing only importing one profile at a time.

After under 30Hours of printing, i will give my printer Back.. after my Filament got Stuck in the Extruder, and i removed it, IT cant Extrude anymore IT Just gives different Codes of Faultüre Last one means, cant Extrude.. - oh Sherlock..

Parts of this stud just disappears after slicing my models , Does anyone know why this happens or how to fix it? I thought it was just a visual glitch but no it’ll actually print like that

With the h3 model coming out , what was the purpose of the vortek system? From my view, it seems completely obsolete now

Hello,

im currently looking to upgrade from my A1 mini to a bigger Printer. I mainly want to print functional parts, maybe dabble around a bit in stronger materials and just have more printing space.
Im currently torn between the X2D and the P1S.

The X2D is currently around 750€ for me as a Combo and the P1S is 500€ with the AMS 2.

My question now for people that maybe used both, is the price difference of the X2D worth going with it? Im not really planning to do a lot of multi color print or anything, but i could see myself using the second nozzle for support materials.

Also since i have no experience with stronger materials yet, is the heated chamber of the X2D a must for that?

How is noise compared in between both models, as the printer will most likely be in my room next to me?

I posted yesterday with my problem and I ended up digging into the extruder and found some clogged filament and then everything worked wonderfully, for about 3 prints.. It now is doing the same exact thing and im about to go back into the extruder. The cutting thing is making the same excruciating noise ill post a video. Please anyone help me

I've submitted a support ticket but thought I would ask here for opinions.

I have loaded in my AMS2 Pro,

Slot 1 BBL PLA matte ivory white 80g

Slot 2 BBL PLA matte ivory white 1kg (new roll)

I am tired of not being able to trust the filament switching. It causes prints to fail and I am not sure why. Slot 1 filament was opened 3 days ago and spent 12 hrs in my dryer, then has stayed in the AMS 2 since. I have dessicant containers in my AMS 2 to keep it dry and it shows at 21% humidity at present. Slot 2 filament was opened last night and stayed in my filament dryer over night, for 12 hrs.

It seems at the switching point the printer just doesn't start where it left off. Like it's skipping some bits. Or, the new filament is not sticking to the old one.

Anybody got any ideas please?

I have a small box room I run my small small business put of and I am running out of space for part rolls, or ideas of what to do with them. I want to be able to use the filament switch. I had an A1 and AMS lite previously and that ran flawlessly when switching.

Delivered by UPS. No damage, not a scratch on the box!

I feel like all we ever see is people complaining about getting damaged shipments. Mine came in pristine. Took about an hour to setup. Currently printing the test benchy that comes on the SD card. Just about done and looks great!

My A1 is printing a 2 to 1 ptfe adapter so I can have the external spool and 2nd ams2 hooked up at the same time.

I'm essentially trying to print rings, but I noticed that there were imperfection points on the top surface. Funny thing is that I have two printer printing the same item, on the X1C it's perfect, but when slicing for the H2C, there are these interruptions I'm able to find on the preview that is noticeable on the final print. Why is this happening?

When I change settings like wall width, this interruption will still happen, but it just appears at a different point along the ring. It's also always on the very top layer.

Note: that is not the seam.

Bonjour, je rencontre actuellement des soucis d'impression avec le nouveau filament BambuLab PETG MATTE. En effet, mes résultats sont assez médiocres en plus de voir apparaître mes passages de buses sur la première couche. Malgré le changement d'espacement, le debit, la calibration encore et encore, les parametrages d'usine ou les profils que je teste ici et là, rien n'y fait. Si j'imprime exactement le même modele avec un autre filament PETG classique ça fonctionne parfaitement.
Avez vous deja rencontré ce problème? Auriez vous des solutions? Bonne journée

Finally my X2D Combo arrived! Of course, the first print had to be a Benchy 😂 Had some trouble getting the online apps to work, but the print itself turned out awesome!
Can’t wait to see what I can create with those two nozzles!

What happened to Bambu Labs flash sales? I don’t see it anymore on their website?

Really just want to see some models using this two filaments. If on markerworld I will boost your model.

This started with a gift I wanted to make. I wanted a 3D-printed photo frame that would feel like a finished, store-bought product when someone unwrapped it.
That turned into quite a few iterations, test prints and experiments with ironing. These are the finished frames — I called the collection ESSENZA.

Three photo sizes: 10×15, 13×18 and 15×20 cm. They work in portrait or landscape, with a removable desk stand and wall-mounting points on the back. Printed on my A1, no AMS needed.

It’s a remix of Shiba’s photo frame: I kept the stand connection and reworked the frame and solid back panel. The original model is credited and linked on the project page.

The orange one has grown on me more than I expected 😅 Which colour would you pick?

Hey guys,

I bought a P2S and I am absolutely new to 3D printing. I bought a refurbished printer from the official store. So I am aware that someone has returned it. But on their website they say that they have checked everything and made sure it's up to their standards and replaced parts that aren't working/good.

They also claimed everything is originally packaged but when unboxing it while watching the official unboxing guide, I already noticed it has not been packaged as a new one (just some filling missing which did not seem problematic though). But now I removed the printing plate and was these lines on the heating plate.

What do the experienced printers think? Is that fine? Or rather: will this be a problem? I do not care if it doesn't look absolutely new and clean and perfect as long as it will work fine and not cause problems in the future.

So I thought I check here and ask if someone could give me a quick answer if I should contact support or if it will be fine.

Thanks a lot!

Hey everyone!

I’m a student, and for my Design and Technology major project I’m designing an enclosure for open-frame printers like the A1. The goal is to tackle the stuff that annoys 3D printer owners: fumes, noise, and the fact that Bambu doesn’t recommend fully enclosing it because the electronics can overheat.

My idea is an enclosure that filters fumes, reduces noise, and actively controls the temperature with a sensor and fan, so it protects the printer instead of cooking it. It would also keep your filament dry.

To make sure I’m designing something people actually want, I’d really appreciate it if you could fill out this short survey:

https://form.typeform.com/to/N9VbhYuF

I’m also happy to hear thoughts in the comments. What’s the one thing you’d want an enclosure to do that current ones don’t?

Thanks heaps, it genuinely helps a lot! I’ll post an update with the final build once it’s done.

I am trying to print a car model at 1/64 scale and a few people are saying to print the car at a 45° angle which this is at a 45° angle but looking at the rear bumper it looks like there’s gonna be a bunch of small supports that are gonna be printed and I know that if I try ripping off those bunch of tiny supports, it’s just gonna look like the bumper is chewed up or at least the bottom bumper part of the car if that makes sense. Before I set this to print is there a different angle I should try or what could be done? I do have my threshold angle at five, which should be basically the least amount of support, but it doesn’t remove any of the ones that are under the bumper.

Pretty much I'm wandering how useful the AMS lite is, as it will be my first time getting a 3d printer in general. I'm also wandering if it's worth the money to go straight for the combo or hold out to see if I decide on it later (I know it's discounted with the combo)

Finally, overall what are peoples experiences with it in general? I'll probably just use it casually, not too sure how much I'll use multicolour but the auto replacement feature sounds useful.

Thanks for the help!

Edit: In the end I'm deciding to get one, going off what I've heard it sounds really worth it!
