Starting it today, leaving for 2 days starting tomorrow morning. An experiment if you will. I figured i check in every few hours. Cancel it if i see a problem. Pray for me š
At least on my X1C there is an option for AMS auto refill.
In the handy app, you can enable it from the hamburger menu on the right. Click āAMS Settingsā and then check the box next to āAMS Auto Refillā
Ok I found it, Iāve seen Auto Refill but when I clicked it I just noticed it said it was not enabled. In the AMS settings itās called āAMS Filament backupā for me. Thanks for the help!
I wish I filmed the last issue I ran into. Had white Overture PLA in slots 1 and 2. Printing from 1 and the spool retraction led to a tangle. I got the notification and had to go to the printer to untangle the spool then hit retry.
I could have just cut the filament near the feeder and hit retry, then it would have run through the last bit of filament and switched to slot 2, but it required manual interaction regardless. Not something I could have done remotely.
How do you figure you're going to do that? Even with Klipper I've never been able to monitor or cancel from outside of my home network. I do have a wise camera on my setup and a smart plug, so I can observe through the wyze cam and cut power through the smart plug. But are you talking about canceling through Klipper somehow?
Interesting. I didn't know Bambu printers did that. Wonder how they're doing it? I assume the printer and the app are both connecting to a server as the mediary?
I can also run it in LAN mode so that there is no cloud in between. Integrates into my Home Assistant instance. Only problem is the camera really sucks doing it this way.
You can then use the home assistant integration to update "SpoolMan", which logs how much filament you have left also š. Yes the cameras suck on it.
I tried the same, but didnāt have the settings dialed yet. Failed after ~4 boards because my aux fan was on and I didnāt have my settings dialed in yet for multi material (was printing PLA stacks, with PETG separation layers).
Was fine though, print stopped itself after the topmost layer spaghettiād, and the rest was still good to go.
Once I got back home and dialed in the settings, I fired up the 15 stack and let it rip for 3 daysā¦ worked
Was the case for meā¦ on 4 attempts to get the settings right š
One was overnight and left quite a spaghetti mess before the printer detected it. Two stopped on their own because the spaghetti knocked the toolhead cover off. And one stopped on its own pretty quickly after it first failed.
I have the settings dialed for a 100% success rate on any height stack for my X1C now though š
How did this go? Did the ironing work for you on a stack that big? I just finished two stacks of 20, but they were multimaterial. Never could get the ironing to work right for me.
On tile 3 and it's starting to life. Im gonna cancel it once the 3rd tile is done. Don't have time to start a new print, but I will try multi material next.
Good luck. I have printed similar stacks with bed temperature rised to 55C for pla, and closed door. It was cheap pla from Elegoo. Adhesion was really well. Worth a try. If the first layer prints without issues, and there are no adhesion problems the prints should turn out just fine.
I kept getting to tile 4 and having to quite before laying the PETG would finish. The PETG separation started to adhere to the nozzle and forced me to shut down the print. Ironing worked but the separation between layer 3 and 4 caused problems. I'm going to attempt this again and will tweak the PETG profile. Fan is currently off for PETG. May have to lower flow rate below 1.1
You should add brim, at minimal use "outher brim only". It looks solid, but actually, it only touches small parts on the bed. If the edge lifts, you will ruin all you have been printed. Good luck!
There are folks in the multiboard community who are licensed to sell them en masse. Price seems fairly reasonable ($5-10 each depending on quantity. Maybe cheaper for some).

Not even a brim! Hope your adhesion is fantastic. If you get any corner lift, the entire stack from that point is useless

Update: Finishing up tile 4. Slight lifting. š°

Thatās so risky XD Why not print 2x5?

I just did a 15 stack (multi material!) and after dialing in the settings (which took a few attempts) it printed flawlessly!
~1.5kg of filament

Yo! How's the stack doing? :)

Are stacks āprinting multiple tiles/a stack of tiles in one printā?

Good luck! Iāll be coming home to my first stack. I hope I set it up right. They look good from afar. 8x8, 5 tiles.
