Printing some little ghost toys for my son, sunlu Glow in the dark petg. Used a UV light to make it glow while printing so he could see it glowing , figured id share.

My P1s was stolen...I can still connect to it online!
Is there a way I can brick it/lock it up from the mobile app???
If you want to learn more about cleaning your plate, check out the Bambu Lab Wiki article:

There's also a helpful YouTube video showing the entire process of cleaning the plate.
Started with a 3D printer.
Then came the AMS.
Then the furniture.
Then the lights… 😂
And here we are!
My quality control boss Peter inspecting printing process
Does anyone know what these guys make? It’s always fascinating to see massive farms with this many printers and it baffles me that they need that many, like why not use injection moulding at that point?

Decided to convert my MW points into h2c.
This thing IS huge! Still printing monocolor prints as my side hustle blew out of proportions and need to fulfill all orders preferably within week. So rn helping out his smaller brother p2s to print all the orders. After that - experiment time!
Ps this is the 2nd post as the first one had photos with information i was not comfortable to share.
Temporary setup in a vacant room- a behemoth standing on the desk made by my great grandfather
RP Archive has a great youtube video of magnetizeable custom shaped grass areas that requires you to print and cut around paper shapes. Just wondering if I could somehow create the shape of the grass patches in a thin 3D printed object and use those to just lay down on the plastic sheet I'm going to be making these grass tiles from?
The thought is to have a 3d printed object matching these shapes. Lay those over the plastic sheets he will then magnetize, glue, and sprinkle flock on.
Hello
as you see at the preview photo, my top part of my model looks low res, and also the printing lost the detail's at that part, the model is horizontal ( on his back), I tried different orientation got the same results. to top is missing the detail's.
My setup: A1-Mini, you can see the setup at the attached image.
not sure is it the orientation, or the settings.
Thx!

A good friend of mine was in New York and offered to bring an H2C back to Brazil for me. Of course I accepted, since even paying the import tax plus excess baggage weight would be almost half the price compared to buying it in Brazil.
She picked it up at B&H and brought it to her hotel. She was about to leave and sent me a picture, and I noticed the laser module was 40W. I had ordered 10W, so B&H had accidentally sent me a free upgrade.
I wanted to do the right thing and return it, so I contacted B&H to sort it out. It was her last day in New York, she was out with her son, and she couldn’t bring the whole package back to the store because it was already at the hotel and she was far away. She did bring just the laser box with her, in case she could stop by and exchange that piece.
This call was a horror show: 37 minutes talking with two people and a really rude supervisor. I explained that the order ships in two separate boxes: a 100-pound printer box and a small laser module box. I only needed to exchange the small one.
Here’s how the call went:
First, they offered to have me ship the whole order back via UPS once she arrived in Brazil, and exchange it from there. I explained that wouldn’t work because of Brazil’s import tax rules. I’d have to pay tax on the full value of the product and shipping again.
Second, they said I’d have to pay the price difference myself, since I was the one who reported the mix-up.
Third, they said that if she was still in NYC, she would need to bring in the entire order, both boxes, not just the laser. I explained, patiently, that the only reasonable option was for her to bring in just the small box they’d mixed up. My friend had nothing to do with their error, and she couldn’t afford to lose her last few hours in NYC lugging around a 100-pound box. I also pointed out that the serial number on the printer box matched the invoice, so there was no reason to bring that one in at all.
The supervisor got rude and insisted she had to bring everything in, or my only other option was to pay the $600 difference. I said neither was going to happen, thanked them for the free upgrade, and hung up.
Edit: changed the order of the events to be more clear to understand.
Hi. New to the hobby.
My PC is down, but would really like to print this.
Is anyone able to slice this so I can send it to my printer in the handy app?
Hello, I wanted to push the limits of what an A1 mini can do. My idea is trying to print with a modded 1mm nozzle. Until now I've had great succes (great success!) when making lines super thick (about 1.5mm).
Main problem, I want the lines to be taller as well, but the height is capped at 0.56mm by Bambu Studio. (Locked max height parameter)
The workaround I found was creating a custom Orca Slicer profile with a 1.0mm nozzle setting thar allows me to push the line height up to 0.8mm.
Problem, when doing this at the moment of sending it to the printer, the software detects a missmatch between the configured nozzle (1mm) and the selected nozzle on the machine (0.8mm) and doesnt let me send the sliced file. (Not great success).
Has anyone tried something of this sort?
Do you know how to bypass this limitation?
Thank you!
Someone on the Bambu Reddit suggested low profile furniture appliance dollies for easily moving/accessing printers. I can't find the post or Redditor, but wanted to thank someone for the suggestion. I was skeptical, but they work surprisingly well. We'll see how long they last!
I started playing around with different bridging settings and was surprised that the "thick bridges" setting made the result that much worse. Bambu Studio says "the results may look worse" but thats not what I was expecting. I guess the bridge gets stronger when it becomes its own support by drooping to the plate.
I got into 3d printing last November and have been printing in PETG exclusively. Recently about a month ago I decided to add filament locally at my warehouse in my home town of Modesto, CA to pay for my hobby. This is where I was introduced to PETG-CF. I’m love this filament and slowly but surely am fine tuning it to reduce layer lines. This is my progress, any more advice on how I can get it better?
