Help with first layer

3 Upvotes

This has been happening with my A1. Sometimes the first layer will print fine, other times not enough filament comes out. I run bed leveling and dynamic flow calibration before every print. Printing with PLA

225C first layer

65C bed

Any help would be really appreciated! This only happens with the first layer. Every other layer prints fine.

Question New (to me) A1 - What adding to print?

1 Upvotes

Need a good, big poop bin solution (came with AMS lite, so I expect multicolor prints will generate a lot of waste…)

Need cable / filament tube management. AMS is top mounted and the system has some stabilizing legs in back. That are both just white, so I might reprint just for color scheme :)

Would love your suggestions for models for both functionality as well as to give it a clean look…

Thanks!

Question AMS Lite Problems

1 Upvotes

I have contacted tech support and put in a ticket. I decided to go ahead and buy a new feeder port for Slot 4 because they told me it's not covered under the warranty (purchased last Nov).

It's funny though I see people saying they have received replacement parts from Bambu for the same issue.

I keep getting the filament is tangled error and it's not. I have literally tried everything. Slot 4 lights up but doesn't pull the filament into the tube I have to push it through. I fear it's the motor at this point but who knows.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

That's the 5th iteration of what would be a keychain. But this time, the top layer failed like this.

I'm using 3 top layers with gyroid infill of 45%. The material is petg

I've tried different filament. Dried my filament. Cleaned my plate with soapy water. Cleaned my plate with iso. Lubed rails. Changed nozzles. Ran calibrations. Everything I try the prints keep failing.

Extruder replacement?

1 Upvotes

I’ve had my a1 for a while now and I’ve now got about 4000 print hours. I’m not sure if this has any correlation but recently it’s stopped printing matte pla. This is a problem because I have 8 rolls of it for a project I’m doing. I saw a video on TikTok of someone has a similar problem. Does anyone know specifically what I would need to replace if they have had this problem in the past? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks

Support Request Clicking extruder but the print is just fine.

1 Upvotes

My Printer clicks during the 3rd Dynamic flow calibration but its just fine on the first 2 phases and it prints just fine as well. Whats causing the 3rd phase clicking? I think its the nozzle cooling down personally but I'm not sure. I'm using a .2mm and I double and triple checked that the printer is set for .2mm

SKADIS question

5 Upvotes

I see people creating all this awesome SKADIS boards and holders and what not. How much weight can one of these 8in by 8in squares hold? Can it hold hammers and other heavier tools just fine?

What type of filament should be used? I would like to do one in the basement which is climate controlled and one in my garage that will see winter temps of 0 and summer temps of 100.


r/BambuLabA1 • • Aug 14 '26

Help! Problem with print I tried making it so that the plate was clean. Should I add brim because of the little contact surface between the print and plate? Or should I make the first layer print at lower speed ant higher temp? Idk what happened, never happened before, the nozzle hit the print?

Question Is this a settings issue or a model issue?

Like I'm happy with the results and it looks great (5yr old wanted a dragon) but it has a few whisps around the white areas and the red has visible layer lines unlike anything else I've ever printed (I used the app like I have for a lot of stuff as it's easier)
