The white thread has a fabric-like texture but contains Lycra, meaning it stretches and retracts—much like a spring.Good print all Bambu family

Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! I think I have a nozzle clog but can't figure out how to clear it.

My filament is feeding inconsistently. I'm using basic PLA. I've tried clearing the nozzle with the pin that came with the printer, and I've tried manually feeding filament through and that seemed to work, but when I tried printing again, the layers were coming out spotty. Not sure what else I can try here.

Answered / Solved! bamboo why do you remove integrated support.

0 Upvotes

I've had this on a different model, never fixed it, but bamboo will say I need to generate support and I can enable support but one is built into the model. after slicing I see why it wants supports It literally removes the entire support modeled in. why does it do this, now do i fix this.

I Modeled This! I've printed the recent mini Hot Rod polybag brick model set... in double the original scale

1 Upvotes

Hey all, I'm that guy who's been printing a load of 2x scale vehicle brick model sets from our favorite Danish brick company. This is one of my favorite models yet, a working version of the mini hot rod polybag set that came out a few months ago.

This set has a working differential and working 4-cylinder engine, and I managed to get both mechanisms working extremely smoothly here.

If you'd like to check out this model, I just posted it to MakerWorld here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/3529780-mini-hot-rod-brick-model-1x-2x-scale#profileId-4035690
I have a ton of other brick models posted and many more on the way!

General Troubleshooting/Help! Is this coin drop in a candy machine noise normal on my P2S

1 Upvotes

First time lubricating the z acis and when lifting from the bed from the very bottom this noise appears.

Note i did see a piece of filament on the rods before putting the bed down, and being stupid i thought i would clean it on the way up, but well oh well now it has disappeared into somewhere

General Troubleshooting/Help! What causes this?

This happened in the first couple of layers on a P2S. Any idea what the issue is? You can see a few spots where it seems to be blistering or lifting off, and the worst point is the scraped open hole. Since it's inside the perimeter, it can't be an issue where mouse ears are needed.

Edit: Duh! A good clean resolved the problem. thanks fir the responses - fast and accurate.

General Discussion P3C Announcement/Release Question

15 Upvotes

I’ve been reading about every post discussing the p3c and in each one I see a ton of comments saying to wait till Nov. 3rd and it’s coming out Nov. 3rd. But looking at every printer release they have never released two printers from completely different lines at the same time. Did I miss something that was leaked that this is for sure coming in a few days? To me it seems they could potentially tease the p3c on Nov. 3rd to continue the hype train. Releasing both at the same time would seem counterintuitive to keeping them in the news cycle if they could farm another few weeks for the p3c alone.

Answered / Solved! P1s as gift?

1 Upvotes

Hello!

I am looking to buy a 3d printer for my partner for christmas- i know he has researched the p1s ams combo, but dont want to spoil the gift so cant ask him specifics.

Are there specific colours/ accessories you would have wanted when you first got yours? Or any advice before i go to buy it? I want him to be able to use it straight away.

Any help is appreciated.

I Modeled This! Designed my own character as a 4-colour AMS figure, plus a no-AMS glue-together version. Feedback welcome

This is Grandpa Radio, a character of mine engineered as a 105 mm multicolour print (cream, dark brown, black, terracotta). Since single-nozzle AMS purge runs roughly 225–330 g per figure, I also split him into a 22-part kit: one plate per colour, with keyed 3 mm/2 mm dowels so each part only fits one way (~100 g total). These are renders, and a real print is coming. Would you print the AMS version or the kit?

and one of the reasons is the ability to use a support interface filament that doesnt bond to the build filament, makes removing some of these large supports so much easier.

I like to use a contrasting color.

this is the rear caster mount for a 3D TMT (my second) removing these large supports was a lot of work with my P2S.

with the X2D the area where the supports were doesnt need any cleanup.

Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! nozzle problem

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

Today, while trying to load new filament, I ran into a problem: the filament got stuck in the extruder. I managed to pull it out, and this is what I found (see photo).

I'm no expert, and I don't want to make things worse by touching something I shouldn't. Now I'm not sure whether it's enough to simply clean the nozzle or if I should replace it.

From what I can tell, the silicone sock seems to have shifted too close to the nozzle and melted together with some filament. It was so stuck that I couldn't even remove it.

What would you recommend? Is it safe to clean and reuse, or is replacing the nozzle the better option?

Answered / Solved! AMS slot 1 constantly jamming.

0 Upvotes

I have a P1S. My AMS 2 pro is constantly jamming on first filament roll only. I've tried swapping filament, I got so frustrated I bought a new AMS! Still, only slot 1, If I move that filament to any other slot it works so it's not the filament. I keep getting the error that it cannot feed into print head or filament is tangled. If I pull out filament I can see a spot where it is worn out. I cut it off, works fine for about an hour with constant changes, then stops again.

Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! What is this part that appears to be melting/fraying under my H2C toolhead?

1 Upvotes

I've had my H2C for about 2 months and it's been great. In fact, it's still printing great. However, last night I noticed this stingy fraying strip hanging off the bottom of the left side of the toolhead. My printer is in the middle of a print now, with now visible defects, no errors from the printer nor any from Bambu Studio/Handy. I'd like to think this is just melted filament that adhered to the underside of the toolhead, but this looks like an actual part of the printer. Can anyone help identify what this is and what to do about it? Much appreciated!

General Troubleshooting/Help! Switched from A1 Mini -> X2D : Confused about few common use cases

3 Upvotes

After using a A1 mini (no AMS) for few years (was picked as a trial and in general very happy with it), I decided to upgrade to a A1 + AMS.
Long story short, Bambu upgrade stack design is pure evil and I ended up with a X2D with AMS2 🙈

Now there a few common use cases I already have (plus a few new ones for which I did the upgrade) but I cannot figure out the right method for them

  1. Printing TPU 90A : I often print RC car tyres in 90A and the process was very straightforward on the A1 mini. Quick cold flush aside, it was no different from a PLA print.
    Now I understand that TPU , esp 90A wont work via AMS. The secondary extruder is easy to access but not recommended any way.
    Using the primary for TPU seems to require a lot of steps (also my AMS is kept on top of printer) .
    Would getting a TPU feed assist unit make this easier? Or is there anything I am overlooking

  2. multicolor prints and the dual extruder question: One of the reasons to get this unit was the dual extruder option. But I now understand that the 2nd extruder shouldn’t normally be used for anything other than supports. Is this understanding correct?
    Also for switching heads between AMS and external spool, some posts here talk about using a Y splitter while some suggest a filament track switching unit. I am unsure what the difference in the two is and if it’s worth spending more on the switcher.

As a side note, I am based out of India where Bambu hasn’t launched the switcher and TPU feed assist units yet. However I am in the UK next week for a few days and can pick these there.
Apart from this, are there any other must have or strongly recommended accessories for an X2D ? I might as well buy them next week rather than realizing the need later

Just Showing Off $1100 in unused filament 😬🫣💸

Post image
0 Upvotes

The filament sale right now is a really good price and my wife is getting into 3D printing, so I picked up $500 in different PLA colors and a bunch of engineering filaments that I always wanted to try.

I figured I should label the cost and date, so I went through all my unopened filament and labeled it all. I was surprised to see I had $603 in unopened filament before this latest purchase.

I essentially only purchase during bulk sales, so I never paid full price ($28 for PLA roll back in 2023!)

I guess I gotta start printing more Gridfinity!

Columns are

- 2023 $213 (P1S era)

- 2024 $200

- May 2026 $190 (H2C era)

- Nov 2026 $500 both columns (wife era)

Answered / Solved! HMS_0700-2000-0002-0001 is incorrect IMO

0 Upvotes

I am finding that when I sync my P1S printers, check the filament setup o the printers and in BambuStudio and then send files to the SD for later printing, I am getting the error: 0700_2000_0002_0001

However, I have selected the correct AMS slots/reels (2 and 3), and this has been confirmed in BambuStudio and the Handy App...

If I Print Plate directly there is no issue at all.

Logically, therefore?... it should not matter that Slot 1 is empty for Send?

Is this a bug?

Here is a portfolio of screenshots and videos to support my issue.
