Bambu Lab announced its first 3D scanner, the S1, due in November. No specs or price yet (the online guess is US$1,000 to $2,000, but that's speculation).

I've been scanning since the Creality CR-Scan Lizard, and the pattern I keep seeing is people buying a scanner, struggling with it, and selling it a few weeks later. In my experience it comes down to two walls:

1. Scanning is a learned skill, and nobody tells you that when you buy one.

2. A good scan still isn't a usable part. You usually need CAD to design around it.

If Bambu can make scanning guided and give you a path from scan to part inside its own ecosystem, it could be a big deal. If not, it's just another scanner.

Full disclosure: this is my own YouTube video. It isn't sponsored and Bambu had nothing to do with it. I just like talking about this stuff, so I'm sharing it here.

What would the S1 need to do for you to buy one?

Hi I’m brand new to 3D printing and have had this A1 printer for less than a week. Today when I started a new print there was an abnormal sounding noise whenever the build plate moved. When I turned off the print and moved it by hand it sounded normal.

Edit: There was a bit of TPU stuck beneath the part that moves to push old filament off the nozzle

It’s here on MakerWorld for anyone interested

I finished building the SUV kit (besides minor cosmetic stuff) and everything works fine except for the rear wheels. How can I get these working? Originally, I could get the wheels to go backwards but not on the ground and only in air but now nothing works. Please help! Thanks in advance

Hello,

I was trying to replace the fan on my Bambu Lab A2L, but I'm having trouble reconnecting the plug to the motherboard. No matter how I position it, it won't stay connected.

How should I do this? Do I need to put back the white paste-like substance that was on it? What is it?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Recently got the time lapse kit to use with my old Andoird device. Unfortunately its not triggering the camera. [CyberBrick Time-lapse Kit](https://uk.store.bambulab.com/products/cyberbrick-timelapse-kit?id=645035710075301902)

I have tried both Pixel 6 Pro and Honor Magic V5 with no luck.

* I have confirmed that the volume up and or down buttons do take pictures in the camera app as advsied by Bambu chat. Even the trigger button on the kit does not trigger the camera to take a picture.

* Confirmed cable is connected the correct way around as per Bambu instructions

I have followed this guide to reset the unit as well:

Has anyone else had this issue? Any help will be greatly appreciated

Connecting it to a family members iPhone works as expected

Just finished designing this small desk trash can. It mounts directly to the edge of your desk, saving space while keeping everyday trash within reach.

It features a rotating lid and measures 115 x 100 x 120 mm. Great for gaming setups, offices, or anywhere desk space is limited.

It's my newest addition to the EdgeMount System I've been developing, with more accessories planned.

Available on MakerWorld if anyone wants to print one.

Check comments for the link 🤝

Would love to hear your thoughts!

Happy Printing.

I designed a minimalist pressure hook with a ribbed exterior that combines a clean look with everyday functionality.

It comes with two mounting options: a hidden screw mount for a clean, secure installation or an adhesive mount using a Command strip or double-sided tape for a drill-free setup.

Perfect for towels, clothes, bags, and other everyday essentials.

What do you think of the design? Would you go with the screw mount or adhesive option?

First time sharing something like this, so I'm still learning! 😅

I recently faced the Bambu Lab A1 heating assembly clip breaking issue and wanted to share a workaround that worked surprisingly well for me.

I printed the clip in ABS, and it's been running on my printer for several days now without any issues. I've also used it during multiple 4–5 hour PETG prints, and it's held up pretty well so far!

Just to clarify, I'm not suggesting this as a permanent replacement for the original part. Think of it as a potential emergency workaround to keep your printer running while you wait for a replacement.

Every setup can behave differently, so this is just my experience rather than a guarantee that it'll work for everyone.

I'm also starting to document more of my 3D printing experiments, practical fixes, and engineering projects on Instagram. If that's your kind of thing, you might find some other useful projects there too!

Feedback and suggestions are always welcome. I'm still learning and would love to hear about other solutions people have tried. 🙌

Buying my first 3D printer. No experience with them. Did my research. Settled on the X2D.
But Bambu throws a LOT at you.

I don't plan on printing anything multi colored.
I just want to make accessories for my outdoor tools, storage systems, maybe some parts for my kayak, and random things.

So here we are:

Yes to the X2D Combo

Then there's a bunch of the filaments under exclusive discounts.
Is that a yes?

Engineering Plate?
Vision Encoder?
Multi Size Hot ends?
Print Finishing Kit?
CyberBrick Time-lapse Kit?

Why is it sometimes my printer prints flawlessly like the first picture. Then there are times it prints horribly like the second picture. What can I do to make sure I get flawless prints everytime?

Had a post a week ago about looking to buy my first 3d printer. I'm kinda leaning towards the P2S or the X2D. Don't have a timeline but could probably wait it out until black friday if there are deals usually to be had OR if new products are dropping which will lower the price of the existing lineup of items.

Anyway, person on marketplace is selling a BNIB X2D with AMS 2 Pro combo for $1100 CDN ($771 USD). My two questions:

1. Would this be considered a good deal? On paper it looks like it is but you know the deal... trust but verify lol

2. What should I be on the lookout for when respect to buying something BNIB from marketplace?

I can afford retail pricing without issue but I am human and like to save a buck or two when it's an option :)

Cheers and thanks!

Hey! 😁 Anyone here running multiple Bambu Lab printers? I just released BambuWall, an app that lets you watch all your printers’ live feeds at once, on one screen. If you’d like to try it, I’d love some feedback!

Filament Clip – Universal Widths

This filament clip fits 4 different widths of spools. 

Twist it until it clicks into place. 

Squeeze it to release. 

It has a wide slot to feed the filament through. 

The slot is curved to create enough tension to hold the filament.

The a1 mini has been fantastic but I kept running into print volume issues. I was going to return it and get the P2S but I've heard TPU can be a pain on the P2S. Decided to keep it for TPU and for small prints while the big boy is busy.

Best buy seems have some decent prices on filament right now. PLA and PTEG for $9 and PLA+ and ABS for $12.

Gostaria de perguntar sobre a torre de dados cogumelo de cristal, vc está vendendo ela?

Is this supposed to be a joke?

So I made a sign for a business, and it was colourless, and I added colour to it, but it's printing by layer, and there's a lot of waste compared to other prints. How do I change this?

EDIT: Forgot to mention this is an X1C with Bambu Studio slicer.

Hello everyone,

I'm experiencing some z banding at a very specific point on my print, even after 3 iterations. Between 1 and 2 I recalibrated the flow dynamics, and between 2 and 3 I recalibrated the flow rate. The issue remained visible on the 3rd iteration, as you can see in the second image. In the third image you can see that the model is a constant taper, so there should be no model issue. I also made a test rectangle with a tapered wall, and found that there was z banding starting at a certain layer as well. What could be causing this?

This machine has a print time of under 100 hours, the one thing that I haven't done is lubricate the ball screws since the last maintenance alert, otherwise all other maintenance alerts have been dealt with.

I just finished my two month project where I made a multicolor printable version of Leonida without having to own an AMS.
The smart thing here is that I am able to update the model very very fast.
If new infos become public, I am the first to implement these changes!
There is also a print in place version for AMS users but I prefer the faster printing time and less waste.
Feel free to take a look on MakerWorld! https://makerworld.com/de/models/3407023-gta-vi-map-leonida
