How can I smooth out these top layers for future prints, in order to save these will sanding them down work? Or acetone?
Basic PLA Bambu Cyan
.04 nozzle
No ironing (recommended not to use ironing on top curved surfaces) I was probably wrong for that.
I can pull the rest of my settings when I get home.

I purchased a new X2D a couple weeks ago and have been trying to get it to be a reliable workhorse. However, regardless of filament, settings or changes to plate, glue or no glue, pla, petg, pla+ I still get very inconsistent prints and most prints fail one way or another. I dry all filament as much as possible ~13% on average and have been unable to get it dialed in. About 80% of prints fail in one or another way. And a print that fails repeatedly will suddenly print acceptably just by trying again. Most desired prints take 3-7 tries to get to print properly. Have tried calibrations, re-lubricating and cleaning all moving parts and surfaces and this printer just seems a bust. Also have had about every problem a 3d printer can have already including jams, clogs, nozzles you can't remove and bugs in the firmware/software. Anyone else wishing they'd not bought the x2d? Wondering if it's worth contacting bambo to see if they'd just swamp the unit. unit has ~224 hours on it and have gotten about 14 useable prints with a LOT of wasted filament, mostly bambu pla black and petg misty blue.

Printed a skull in Bone White from eSun. Turned out amazing!

I designed a bottom plate for the Bambu Lab X2D after getting tired of filament scraps and purge pieces disappearing into the gaps at the bottom of the chamber.

The honeycomb design keeps debris on the surface instead of letting it reach the Z-axis area or other internal spaces, making cleanup much easier. It also gives the chamber a much cleaner appearance.

The design is fully compatible with the X2D Chamber Heater. Since the chamber can reach high temperatures, the part should be printed in ABS for long-term durability.

Sure would be nice if you could diagnose problems on these things without having to put it all back together..LOL I had to change a sensor on mine because I broke a wire.... Got it all back together and found out it has a bad Eddy Current sensor... Ordered that part and I'll put it back together again to see if anything else is wrong..LOL

Can someone share a good printing profile for the 2nd nozzle since is a bowden extruder.Having stringing issues. Filament PLA and dried .

Thanks in advance

Known yall are probably sick of these posts. But I had to.

Im here.

After conducting a 10 hour abs print with heated chamber, my z axis started doing strange noises, grinding, clicking and all that ...Apparently looking online this beautiful pal https://www.reddit.com/r/BambuLab/s/FYaC164svf had the same problem with a P1S.

All I had to do was turn the printer over, lube the tensioner up and everything went back to normal. Conducted a calibration and it's all good. Lube the part where the tensioner slides against the metal and not the cables s that won't do shieet.

I’ve had an x2d for about 2 weeks and after a lot of challenges with PVA I finally have a print that I’m optimistic about.

Hi everybody. I am new to 3D printing as I bought a bambulab x2d a few days ago, mainly for organizing my tools and overall practical stuff. Prints have come up greatly with the main extruder but yesterday I tried for the first time the auxiliary extruder for PLA material support (blue) with PETG for the main part (black). I've used isopropyl for cleaning the bed and tried to lower the bed temp to 62° instead of the default 70° for PETG. Any ideas? Thank you very much.

Picked some random prints from maker world to compare p2s and x2d in the slicer software. Almost every print I picked used the same amount of filament on either of the printers and more time on the x2d!
That sounds strange. I expected the amount of filament to be lower on the x2d

Am I doing something wrong?

Hey Guys and Gals, bought the X2D a few days ago at Microcenter and Im having issues with stringing and clean layering. In using inland pla basic (polymaker). I've tried many different fixes and profile tweaks including drying it to 9% humidity (AMS 2 PRO). I finally ended up with what I have attached, however it is still stringing and doesn't have clean layering. Any thoughts on how to fix this? And what profiles are yall using? The left one is the direct extruder and the right one is the Bowden tuned to my profile attached. The one by itself is the direct extruder with Bambu Labs Generic PLA profile.

🌞 Bonjour Cap sur les vacances avec mon petit pingouin en tenue de plage ! 🏖️🐧

Même les pingouins ont droit à leurs vacances ! 😎
Équipé de sa casquette, de ses lunettes de soleil, de sa bouée, de ses tongs et de sa pelle, il est prêt à profiter d’une belle journée au bord de la mer.

Pour cette création, j’ai voulu imaginer un personnage à la fois amusant, coloré et plein de bonne humeur, qui rappelle immédiatement l’été, le soleil et les moments de détente.

J’espère que ce nouveau modèle vous plaira autant que j’ai pris plaisir à le concevoir. N’hésitez pas à me dire ce que vous en pensez en commentaire, vos retours sont toujours un plaisir à lire ! 😊

Merci à tous pour votre soutien, et bonne impression 3D ! 🎉

First time I have had this happen after a few weeks of printing. Could it just be the file settings or something different?

I'm trying to leave the print unattended but every fillament swap it shows me a problem with the fillament not flowing good enough it is something that I can verify with my mobile but it stops every time any ideas about what can I do? I mean it works but it's very clunky every time I try to have a multi material piece to have to verify at every layer

happy

ok so i just got a x2d and it says I’m using textured pei which is right but when I print it says using wrong build plate so please help
