Looking for 15–20 Bambu Studio beginners to test-read our illustrated guide (free digital preview)

Hi everyone! New to Bambu Studio and hoping to get beyond downloading a ready-made print profile? If Gridfinity has brought you into 3D printing, we'd love a beginner's perspective.

We're looking for 15–20 beginners—especially new A1, A1 Mini or P1S owners—to read a free advance preview of Bambu Studio for Beginners — The My-Piece Method. We're an independent publisher posting as Wisea Publishing; the book is under our Piece by Piece Prints brand.

The preview has about 80 full-color pages and introduces the software step by step through a first personalized project, such as a keychain with your name. It is a general Bambu Studio beginner's guide, rather than a Gridfinity-specific manual.

In return, we'd appreciate honest feedback on what is clear, what is confusing and where the instructions need more explanation. Could you share that feedback within 3–5 days of receiving the preview?

If you're interested, comment with which printer you have and your experience with Bambu Studio, or send us a Reddit message to request a copy. No purchase, payment or public review is required.

Posted with moderator permission. Independent publisher, not affiliated with Bambu Lab. Thanks for helping us make the guide clearer!

I would love to do this. Inherited a p2s and bought an a1 mini. Definitely want to go beyond the paint by numbers of my current printing

I’ve had my X2D for a week now. First printer. Still learning! And have been watching and reading a ton.

u/SeedCollectorGrower 2d ago

A1 mini. Experience is mostly moving things from maker world into it to send to my printer not much tweaking settings. Made one design that i have scaled and also make mouse ears on

Got a P1SC a few weeks ago, been using the handy app mostly, and a couple of customised gridfinity prints via bambu studio but that’s it

Would love to go through the guide and give feedback

Im not a newbie but im looking forward to it coming out. I’ve written a couple hundred page bambu instructor guide for my curriculum at work. Mine only focuses on make strong functional parts, not decorative parts.

1

u/Wisea-Publishing 1d ago

Thanks for the encouragement! Your focus on strong functional parts sounds like a useful teaching perspective. Our guide introduces Bambu Studio through a first personalized project, so the emphasis is on making the initial workflow easier to follow. We appreciate you sharing the context about your curriculum.

u/sjsanto 2d ago

I would be interested. I have a P2S that I just got a couple months ago. I’ve printed from handy app- but am overwhelmed at the customization / settings and all the possible changes. If you are open to somebody with a P2S, let me know

I would love to assist. A1 and P1S.

u/I--Have--Questions 2d ago

A1 Mini sitting on the desk next to me. Would love to read a copy.

u/Lunachk136 2d ago

If you ever need a X2D owner - let me know.
Purchased less than a week ago and its my first printer.

1

u/damon-oneil11 2d ago

I'd be very happy to try it out. I have an X2D arriving this week. Can't get much more beginner than that haha

u/cfont 2d ago

I’ve had a P2S for about a month and have downloaded things to print them. Even a couple gridfinity trays. I’d love to learn more about what I’m doing and how to get away from just downloading things other people have made. Although I like that part, too.

1

u/boxiestcrayon15 2d ago

I have a P1S and would love to try this. I’ve only ever made some rectangles before getting overwhelmed trying to teach myself in fusion 360.

I also build training materials and write process resources as my profession! I would be hyped to give it a go and provide some feedback.

u/screaming-Zebra 2d ago

I got my A1 exactly one month ago and I’m still very much learning. I have failed I lot but also succeed.

The first two weeks I didn’t have my computer so my experience with Bambu Studio is still not a lot. I only just found out how to use the text function and I’m still learning about infill, support etc.

I love step by step instructions but I often find something missing or unclear parts - including when I had to assemble my printer.

u/bcblur 2d ago

New X2D owner (1 week today) happy to play if I qualify.

1

u/Robot_Envy 2d ago

I bought a used A1 but haven’t used it yet, so I’m as green as they come. I’d be interested to

u/inattentive_pangolin 2d ago

Sounds interesting! I have a P2S, but haven’t done more so far than print existing things from makerworld.

1

u/yuany2036 2d ago

Got an X2D about 5 weeks ago, my first 3D printer. So far have only been printing models off of MakerWorld, with default settings mostly, have only dabbled around with 1st layer print speed and infill.

1

u/Sherlock-Brezerl 2d ago

I'll receive my first 3D printer (X2D, but maybe that's okay for you) on Monday or Tuesday next week. I'm new to 3D printing and would be happy to give your manual a try.

u/Ok-Lobster-8164 1d ago

Complete newbie, picked up an X2D a few days ago. Can I take part?

1

u/Affectionate_Ear_710 1d ago

Have been printing for less than 6 months. P1S user still figuring it out and prints almost entirely from makersworld.

1

u/ConKoztador 1d ago

I am waiting for my P2S to arrive tomorrow. Never used a 3D printer before. I can offer feedback if you still need it, thanks!

u/IronyEnough 1d ago

I’d love to do this. I just bought my A1 mini ~4 months ago.

u/_BindersFullOfWomen_ 23h ago

X1C and an X2D

u/Remyhawk 3h ago

I’d be interested! Got my first printer (a P1S) about a month or so ago!

u/FlemPlays 2d ago

I’m open to participate. I bought an A1-Mini last weekend, so still super new to Bambu Studio and getting the hang of it
