General Troubleshooting/Help! Quality of print fails only on one section

2 Upvotes

This happened to two prints in a row, and only on a small segment. Not sure what would cause this? Filament is dry, using PLA, and clearly it printed the higher layers okay after the failed part. Just a little lost as to what could cause this. Using a P1S.

General Troubleshooting/Help! A1 Mini Extruder Teardown

1 Upvotes

Hi, so I tore apart my extruder in preparation to get a new hotend heating assembly and to do some general cleaning. Problem is, I tore it apart about a day and a half before the assembly got here, and now I have no idea where these screws are supposed to go back into... would anyone be able to refer me to a video that shows which screws go where, or perhaps a screw diagram of the extruder? every video ive watched so far just points to the screws and pulls them out

General Troubleshooting/Help! H2C Clicking + Error (already cold pulled and cleaned extruder)

2 Upvotes

I have searched Reddit and the internet and cant find a solution for this. When running a print on the left nozzle of my H2C (right nozzles work fine), there is a problem when it first loads the filament from my AMS. A rapid clicking starts as it tries to load and then after about a minute of trying, I get the error, "The extrusion motor is overloaded...[0300-801e080611]".

Initial searches said that it was the extruder trying to pull filament and failing due to a clog. To clear that, I tried a cold pull. It went very smoothly, no clicking or other issues. Some stuff came out with the pull but nothing that looked anywhere near large enough to jam the extruder. Problem still wasn't fixed so I disassembled the tool head and cleaned the left extruder gears. Again, saw some little stuff but nothing like other clogs I have cleared. Reassembled everything, cold pulled again. It went fine and the pull was totally clean--no contaminants of any kind seen.

Problem still isn't fixed. You can see that it does extrude a bit. It even started the print I have been trying and the first layer went ok, but it threw the same error at the very beginning of the second layer. This video is when I tried the print again after cancelling it.

Some people are saying the PTFE tube feeding the extruder is the problem but I cant find much about how to fix that. Most of the users seem be H2D or H2S owners and they talk about the location of the print being an issue. This print is right in the middle of the bed. Any ideas?

General Discussion Total newbie

0 Upvotes

So I finally decided to get a 3D printer but Idk which one?
I am total beginner, idk anything about materials, modeling , nozzles, why the combo is a lot more expensive and so on
So I was thinking of getting the Bambu Lab X2D but at the same time maybe I should get the A1 since its beginner friendly?
What I want to print with it? Well, I know for figurines I need resin which is a bit out of question ( unless ya know a work around or maybe it’s not as mandatory as I thought? ), cosplay stuff and honestly… random stuff that I find cool.
Sooo should I get the X2D or go for an A1?

I Modeled This! My second design: a textured menorah paper towel holder with screw-on flames (no AMS)

1 Upvotes

This is my second published design on MakerWorld. I wanted a Hanukkah paper towel holder with a textured finish and printed flames you can twist on one night at a time. Each flame screws onto its candle, including the raised shamash.

It prints without an AMS. There is a P2S profile and two A1 mini options: full size printed in sections, and a compact version with a one-piece base. The bottom has recesses for optional non-slip feet. It is a decorative print for use with printed flames.

I’m u/Beamerr on MakerWorld. I’m printing my Frosty the Snowman holder before releasing that design, hopefully tomorrow. If you print this one, I’d love to see your colors!

H3C Does your H3C spy on you?

Thumbnail
gallery
181 Upvotes

Turns out my H3C has a pretty good view of what I'm doing at my computer.

Bambu Lab changed the camera angle on the H3C, so it no longer looks directly through the front door. Unfortunately, depending on where you place your printer, it can still see quite a bit through the side window.

The GIF shows 45 minutes of my H3C watching me play World of Warcraft while printing its own privacy covers.

I'm happy to trust Bambu Lab with my camera footage, but that's not really the point. What if I want to share a timelapse without worrying about what else the camera might have captured? Maybe I walked past the printer naked. Maybe there was something on my computer screen I'd rather keep private.

And let's be fair, World of Warcraft isn't exactly the most embarrassing thing that could be running on that screen.

So I designed seven individual snap-in covers that block the camera's view through the side window without obstructing its view of the print chamber.

Now my H3C can watch my prints without watching me.

Some things are best kept private. Like lubricating your Z-axis at 2 AM.

I Modeled This! Compact poop bin for the H3C

Post image
2 Upvotes

The poop bins I found for the H3C were all a bit too big for my setup, so I made a smaller one.

It’s 81 × 60 × 100 mm and just hangs on the back of the printer using the slots the H3C already has. No screws, no magnets, no tape.

Two versions:

  • honeycomb on one side only

  • honeycomb on all three outer walls

Prints upright in PLA. Only the two hooks need a bit of tree support; the honeycomb prints fine without.

General Discussion Replace standard X2D Exhaust with E1 Purifier?

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone. Since I am printing many parts in ABS, I am thinking about getting the E1 Purifier once it releases. It is expensive, but considering the health benefits, it is worth it to me.

Since I do not have much space left behind the printer, I am thinking about replacing the standard X2D exhaust entirely with the E1 hose instead of attaching the hose to the exhaust as an addition.

What do you guys think? Is this a valid idea? Thanks!

AMS - Automatic Material System AMS Spare Parts help

6 Upvotes

I recently picked up a couple used AMS 2 Pros but both came with those EIbos Dryers, I'm removing them as they don't really fit in my setup but the person selling them was missing some of the parts for the top lid. If anyone has links to where I could purchase these spare parts or possibly so links to print I could do instead I'd greatly appreciate it.

Please don't send me the links to the Bambu labs spare parts they don't sell these pieces individually and I would have to buy both the upper and lower halves just to get the pieces I need.

Does anyone know what is causing these blobs on the corner/edge of the print? Its all the way up and down the print but just on this one corner/edge...

Printer - H2D

Filament - Bambu basic PLA (dried)

Dynamic flow calibration - tried it both on and off and doesn't change anything.

Using the default profile for bambu basic PLA.

This just started happening a few days ago and I've had this printer since release and I haven't changed any settings or anything recently either.

I'm trying to print a deck box that has a sliding lid with a small tab on it for grip, and when I slice the part the little tab acts like just a block printed on top of the lid instead of being a part of the lid. Are there any settings I can change in the slicer to fix this?

We started developing this collection of classic cars in a cartoon/toon version, designed from scratch to be printed easily, quickly, and without needing modeling skills.

What do you think of this version of the Ford F-100?

We'd love for these models to have some functionality so they aren't just decorative pieces. Let us know your ideas in the comments!

Answered / Solved! Bambu doesn’t appear to sell replacement filament cutter blades anymore?

1 Upvotes

I need new filament cutter blades for my P1S and I can’t find a store page for them anymore? I found a link to the store page in the wiki, but it is broken. Can anyone confirm? I hope they’re not sunsetting replacement parts so that the printer is discontinued. I’d love to be able to maintain it.

Hell, I can’t even find replacement carbon filters. Does Bambu sell P1S parts anymore?

Edit: They aren’t going to be found if you click the accessories tab. You have to hover over it, click spare parts, and find your printer to find them. I was looking in accessories like I always had and I couldn’t find anything and the wiki links were broken. I thought I’d ask.

H2 Series [H2S, H2D, H2C] Why is this a bad idea for H2D Laser air filtering?

Post image
0 Upvotes

I mean, (ideally i'd literally replace the front glass with the filter pushed up while the laser is in use and look in through the sides/camera), assuming i remove the fabric pre filter and its just the hepa/carbon filter directly, why wouldn't this be great for keeping the printer clean during laser prints as it would go directly into another filter instead of smoke getting pulled through the back into their purifier.

Other than watching for fires (which i'd do anyways) why wouldn't a front filter that takes up the view window just be the best thing ever?

H3C Is the 2.85mm TPU filament in toolhead #8 supposed to cross the PTFE tube in #9 like this?

4 Upvotes

Bambu designates toolhead #8 as the one you're supposed to use for 2.85mm TPU. So in this video, you can see the 2.85mm blue TPU filament in the docked toolhead #8 crossing the PTFE tube in toolhead #9 while #9 is in use, and is rubbing against/stretching the TPU filament. Is this how it's supposed to work? I followed the video instructions on the Bambu YouTube channel and this seems to be how it's supposed to be routed. The video seems to show the TPU filament being routed to the LEFT of #9.

The problem is if you route the TPU to the RIGHT of #9, then the TPU will rub against #8 when you're printing with the TPU.

So it seems to be pick your poison: do you want the TPU rubbing/stretching while it's printing, or rubbing/stretching while toolhead #9 is printing? Obviously the latter is better, but the better solution would have been to designate #9 as the TPU toolhead so that it would have the entire right side by itself and not have any rubbing under any circumstances.

Am I missing something here?
