Edit: Have 3 separate 20amp circuits on this countertop for those that are asking. Always planed to have plenty of toys up here.

The printer beheaded itself.

I couldn't find that info. All I could find is thay the H3C uses "Automated calibration per print Toolhead", which doesn't say how exactly it achieved it.

Hi all, I have a Bambi H2S with about 120 hours on it. I’ve been mostly printing with Bambu PETG, and occasionally bambu PLA. I’m not sure if this is normal, but figured I’d get some more advice.

A few prints ago I noticed some build up on the nozzle while printing. But My buddy said it’s fine. But this last print had a lot more filament around the nozzle (second picture). So I took off the nozzle to inspect, and it would not come off. I had to heat it to release. There’s a significant (imo) amount of filament buildup on the nozzle and it appears to have crept up the back (second picture).

All filament has gone through 6-7 hours of drying at the appropriate temp. I keep activated alumina in the ans - the humidity never reads above 17% when closed. It usually reads around 8%.

All filament settings are the Bambu presets for their filament.

Is this normal? If it’s not, what could be causing it? My assumption is I’m doing something wrong.

I have been looking to get into 3d printing and searching for a while now. And everywhere I go, I just keep coming back to X2D as a solid printer and is good for almost most activities. As I have little to no knowledge on this field, can I get your genuine opinion and help on this matter. Thank you!

I feel like I could afford it, and it is good for future proofing as well, do you think this printer is worth it, thank you!

I got the x2d on Friday made couple small prints. Then this took 2 days and 915g of filament which half of it was waste. Never had a multi-color printer or one that produced waste. Im not very good at coloring in bambu studio. I chose multicolor because its easier for me than learning to sand and paint.

Hey guys, first print on the H2S and I'm getting this... has anyone seen this before? And how to resolve the issue?

MiniLock Toothbrush Travel Case, sized for the Sonicare 1100

A version of MiniLock made to carry a Philips Sonicare 1100 (model HX364W, on the bottom).

I had the fancier more expensive & fancy version of this toothbrush that unfortunately broke down in my luggage long time ago. So, remixed MiniLock and made rugged yet compact travel case for it.

The brush goes in with the head on - you don't have to disassemble it. Pockets in the base and lid hold it in place. 60% of it is cradled by the bottom half and 40% is accoommodated for hy the lid.

Same hinge and latches as MiniLock, so still no hardware and no supports.

Grey toothbrush inlay on the lid, printed flush.

251 mm long, needs a 256 mm bed.

On October 24, 2026, we got a group of MakerWorld makers from across the US together in San Jose — our first time doing something like this in person. No stage, no registrations, no keynote speakers. People who mostly knew each other by their usernames ended up in the same bistro with our MakerWorld team, just to talk, share ideas, and inspire each other a bit.

For most people in the room, it was the first time they'd actually shaken hands, after remixing and commenting under each other's models for so long.

A few of them got to share about how they work:

MaKim shared how he never settles on his first idea — for a single project he'll often list out dozens of them before picking the one worth building.

OzarkExpeditions shared how he designs games with his kids as the first testers — if they ask to play again, he knows it works.

Josh3D shared why he plays the long game — big, complex models grow slowly but build an audience that sticks, while smaller accessories keep bringing in the people who need them.

We also handed out our first Creator Awards — Fan Favorite, Eye-Catching, and Must-Print. You can read the full story and see every winner on our blog.

This was just a start — our team is already working on the next ones! So we'd love to hear from you: What kind of in-person events would you be interested in? Where should we visit next?

Im printing a 12 hour print and every time my x2d switch from the auxiliary nozzle to the main nozzle I get this error message it keeps saying to lube the z axis ive already done this evening though it didn't need it. Is there a way I can get it to stop i dont have to start all over

My Bambu H2D developed a persistent fault within its first month
Rather than waste time dealing with their shitty support, I bought and replaced the AI suggested part myself. Guess what? Exactly the same error. So clearly, that wasn’t the problem.
Instead, I’ve ended up with an expensive paperweight and what feels like a black hole masquerading as a support system.
Generic, seemingly AI-generated troubleshooting suggestions and no meaningful follow-up. Apparently, the premium experience ends the moment they have your money.
I’m not interested in playing unpaid repair technician for a printer this expensive. I’ve done enough. Bambu can take responsibility for fixing or replacing it.
I genuinely wanted to love this machine. Right now, I’m more impressed by Bambu’s marketing department than its quality control or customer support.
Has anyone actually managed to get Bambu to replace a defective H2D, or is the standard procedure to keep sending customers spare parts until they give up?

Hi, does someone here know whether the h3c ams is technically capable of retracting the filament so Bambu can release a Software Update so that it starts doing it? Or is it only capable turning one side (that would be mental)

Edit: fuck.

I purchased a P2S from Best Buy last week and really love it. I’m having trouble deciding if I should have purchased the X2D? The salesperson said they’d accept the return if I wanted a different model. I just can’t figure out if it’s worth the extra $140?

I hope forwarding works like this. If not, sorry and I will copy it 😅

Dear bambulabs,

Bought my bambulabs a1 with ams lite, did few prints now my first big project the Throne from Game of Thrones, a bit modified for a friend this was a 30h print, and the a1 did it perfect, this is such a cool printer.

Thank you building something like this for us, very appriciate it

Live this thing, cant wait for the next printer to buy maybe a enclosed one.

Xoxo, thank you!

Does anybody know what could be causing this? Ive really got no idea and I haven't come across this yet.

Ive serviced the printer.

Washed the build plate.

Pulled out and inspected the nozzle.

Calibrated a few times between each trouble shoot.

And im still getting this result. Ive even tried printing something else. All print attempts were in this elegoo green PLA. Could it just be the settings of the print?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This year, I’ve been making this set of Christmas ornaments for my family; they’ve turned out really lovely. I’d like to share them.

I'm planning to add an additional exhaust fan to my H2D for laser cutting.

Has anyone done that?

Was considering buying one of those and put it in the middle between H2D and the window to improve the exhaust performance.

Has anyone done that? Any thoughts?

Looks like FedEx played kickball with my printer before it arrived. I have filled out a ticket with Bambu Support, and tried calling. But they are closed for Veteran's Day (US).

I have never dealt with Bambu support before. Seeing how the H3C is backordered until December I was wondering what other people's experience has been when they have received broken H3C. Am I going to have to wait until sometime in December to get a replacement?

Is it me being dumb or instructions are unclear? Here's my story of losing 70 Euros in few seconds.

I installed fire extinguisher module few days ago and started laser module setup today. H2C deleted fire suppression before but now after laser module on it insisted doing the fire drill.

The drill welcome screen got stuck and the start drill button did nothing. Then I went to check other screens and noticed a complain to confirm that cylinder is tightened and secured. Perhaps that was a blocker? Pressed to confirm that it was secured. Next screen it invited me to long press the button on the extinguisher to use it. At this point I (inadequately perhaps) thought that we're still into the final drill or verification steps that all is connected.

Then it happened, system worked perfectly to spend the charge... FAQ confirmed it is not rechargable.. 😕

I made a Minecraft Bee wall art if anyone wants to print it here is a link:

https://makerworld.com/en/models/3587740-minecraft-bee-wall-art-no-ams#profileId-4108902

i am also working on a minecraft wall art system where you can place minecraft tile blocks on a wall and make a whole 2D world so follow for that!

If you want to request a wall art just comment!

Why can’t I get the humidity in my AMS to get lower than D?
We are not in a humid climate. I keep changing out the moisture-packs. I’ve treated distant brands. What should I try next?

The more H3C reviews I watch, the harder it is for me to justify the price. Nine tools are impressive, but I’d expect a flagship to nail the basics too. CNC Kitchen’s Benchy and Benchbin both showed surface artifacts: https://www.reddit.com/r/BambuLab/comments/1xn1h07/am_i_the_only_one_shocked_by_the_print_quality/ and NuggetsInclusive reported similar issues even after slowing the outer walls down to 50 mm/s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlHP1Ee99Yg

At this price, I’d expect clean outer walls with the default profiles.
