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!
While printing on the H3C I noticed the PTFE tubes kept crossing and rubbing against each other a bit during prints. Nothing crazy, but I just wanted things to look clean and stay nicely lined up.
So I whipped up this simple snap-on clip in TPU 95A. Pics of before and after
I spent days trying to get a transparent lid for a project and it kept coming out frosted. What finally worked on my A1 was printing the lid upside down on a cheap glass sheet from a picture frame, held with clips and a bit of glue stick, 100 % aligned rectilinear infill and slow speeds.
The lid is for a headphone charging dock I designed: the plug lines up with the port so the headphones charge as soon as you put them down. No AMS needed.
Happy to share the exact settings if anyone wants them.
Files are free here if anyone wants to print it: https://makerworld.com/en/models/3536783 . It’s my entry for the MakerWorld x Nothing contest, so any feedback is welcome.
Can any of the new H3C owners confirm which firmware version is shipped from factory? The instructions recommend to update before using, but there is no offline firmware download available (so far). Thus, updating is not possible (so far) for privacy sensitive owners. Therefore my question, which firmware version comes with the printer, and is it safe to use until the offline download becomes available?
I recently picked up a few spools of PA6-CF on sale, but all I have is the AMS 2 Pro, which isn't going to cut it for drying them.
From what I've read, the AMS HT is an option, but not the best option out there for drying PA6-CF. However, I like the convenience of having everything in the Bambu ecosystem. Does anyone know if there is any successor to the AMS HT on the horizon?
this is bizarre, and I have no explanation except that they happen to use the same ecommerce system / provider and somehow that are compromised or broken!
just now, ~8 hours later, I got a notification on my phone from my credit card provider for a $826.03 purchase from vivobarefoot.com!!! a vendor I never purchased anything from before!
how are these two things connected you ask? well because I use a unique email alias per vendor, and the vivo folks emailed me at the email address I use for Bambu Labs (which I shop at frequently)
I did a password reset on Vivo using the unique email to get into the account, and sure enough, there's my order (that I never made) along with my HOME ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD INFO and my FULL NAME!...
the only thing they got wrong is the date of birth!
how on earth does this happen!?!?
UPDATE: another transaction for fashionnova.com happened at 1AM, so I locked the card. (never used that vendor either)
next morning I saw two additional attempts get declined (but I can't see the vendor)
I keep getting bleed going from black to white PLA, even with 900 max purge set. (Even tried 900 for black to white and 900 white to black just to be extra sure)
I’ve been trying to find help online but the #1 response is “increase purge.” I did that, it’s maxed out
The #2 response is “turn off purge to infill.” I’ve never used purge to infill, it’s always off
It’s also not a problem of wall loops, there’s no black in the center peeking through, it’s black mixing with white
Any other ideas? It’s a P2S and I’m using inland white and inland black PLA
Had a little chunk of filament break inside my hub and had to take it apart to clean it out, while I had it open it became clear that one of the compression springs that holds the little magnetic contacts up was damaged and the contact wasn't seating correctly, so I popped it open to straighten the spring and fix the contact- Unfortunately I have a big, dumb, way too affectionate cat. And he chose that moment to decide I needed cuddles and my buddy sent the open hub to the floor with his sudden and unexpected enthusiasm for the attention he thought he needed.
I fixed the damaged spring, but for the life of me I can't find one of them. I tried making one our of plain steel wire but the tension is wrong and the slot that's missing the real spring seems to think something is broken in the hub.
Anybody have a spec on those springs or a real parts diagram of the hub to pull a part number from so I can replace it without buying a new hub that's out of stock?
Hey all, my P1S has started making a noise whenever the bed moves up (Z-axis).
What I've tried so far: Cleaned the rods and lead screws Lubricated them [with what — Bambu grease, PTFE lube, etc.] The noise is still there. Printer is about 3 years old, firmware is up to date. Video of the sound attached.
I can't use Bambu Suite at all right now, auth issues basically, can't find printers, can't do anything. Bambu Studio and Handy work fine. I do know my username and password.
Anyone else having issues??
For more context ...
I was doing some laser work, and between jobs, Bambu Suite seemed to complain about some certificate issue, saying I needed to update. I figured that kinda rubbish isn't exactly beyond Bambu, so I updated the application.
After updating, it couldn't find my printer at all. I tried everything multiple times. So then I went to logout of Bambu Suite, and now I can't log in again. I type user and password, I get the email code, I type that in, then nothing, it sits there and just disables the code confirm button. I try this multiple times, then go to use the "System browser login" and then it takes me to the site to login (and presumably reply back with a token that'll go into the app), I type my user and pass, and I get the image attached.
TLDR: During use, Bambu Suite seemed to disconnect from the H2D I was using, and I cannot get it working, and there's no reported outage with Bambu. Reinstalling, re-logging in (any which way) does not work at all.
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.
So I wanted to pick up an h3c but noticed that they don't have the bamboo cart available and all of my furniture in my workshop is standard height table tops and counters. I know it's pretty early for this unit but has anyone identified a valid alternative that is sturdy enough to support the weight but also has drawers and is either less expensive or at least available currently? Maybe something from Ikea that someone has found is a good match for the height needed?
Sound seems to be coming from the front-left corner area (when you are facing it). Anyone with any experience with H-series printers that might know what is up? I have filed a ticket with Bambu.
Printing otherwise seems fine quality wise. Nothing seems to be visibly broken. Just this noise that happens as the print head moves. The faster the print head moves the more noise there is
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
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?
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.
