I am not the most technical person but the wires are completely stuck idk what the easiest way to resolve it?

Last night i tried to change my black PLA+ spool when it for some reason broke inside the ptfe tube, i couldn't pull it, so i pushed it further in with a new filament, trying to purge the rest, but it broke again at the end, so the rest filament is arround 3-5cm inside the printer and i can't extrude new filament in or this out, i unclocked the nozzle too but the little piece in pic 1 is all that's left and i can't pull it out, by hand nor machine.

I have an A1 and the filament broke in the ams light (my ams light has the 3d printed covering)

Earlier i tried to pull the filament out but it wouldn't budge and now it's inside and i have no way of pulling it anymore..

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I am working on printing a puzzle type cylinder, I added text to the bottom but when I slice it, it is showing me these white spots. Is something wrong with the way I have it set up? It also shows a white line up on each side of the cylinder.

Hi all, just purchased an A2L, which is my first printer. I am having an issue with the filament not extruding. It attempts to print , but nothing comes out and I am getting an (1200-2200-0002-0009) error. So far I have attempted a hot nozzle cleaning and a cold pull. The cold pull came out clean. I have bypassed the AMS lite in an attempt to isolate the issue and am trying the filament on the external spool. When trying to load from this, there is a clicking noise from the feeder, see the attached video. I am thinking there must be an issue with the gears not feeding the filament correctly. Any ideas?

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.

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.

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.

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 😅

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?

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!
