    🚨ATTENTION🚨 There's been an official update from Bambu Lab for the A1 heatbed cable call back since this video was released. Please disregard the information on the first accessory that I mentioned. Bambu Lab has escalated the matter and they're saying that ALL OWNERS SHOULD STOP USING THIER A1s IMMEDIATELY. There are 2 options available to move forward. Option 1 - return/refund the A1 and receive a $80 credit in addition. Or Option 2 - wait until the end of March for Bambu Lab to send replacement parts and receive a $120 credit in addition.
    Read their updated blog article here 👉blog.bambulab.com/a1-recall-update/
    I'll create a follow-up video shortly that goes into detail.

      For most that cable is NOT an issue. Bambu is just covering their backsides by doing the recall. That cable guard would work forever.

      BTW Bambu is NOT providing a cable replacement. They are proiding a complete heated Bed replacement. I just recieved and installed mine. Easy peezy with thier instructions.

    I love that the philosophy around 3d printers is that you're meant to use it to print its own upgrades, really gets you into the mindset of making a thing to fill a niche instead of buying it. Any one of these things could've been an off-the-shelf product but Bambu decided that no, you bought the printer for a reason, just buy filament and get cracking!

  • @Immolate62

    I find the scraper to be a bit too scrapy for textured PEI plates. In my experience, the best tool for the job is a scraper made for an oscillating multitool. Spend the money to get a good one and it should be good right from the package. If you cheap out, make sure you take the time to remove the burr from the scraper before use. Either way, these never fail me.

    • @Creatorrific
      @Creatorrific  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thanks, I might give that a try. You're right, the metal blades are probably best for the smooth plates.

    • @ethancohen6005
      @ethancohen6005 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@Creatorrific there is a print to make the scrapers more perpendicular to the plate. Also the scraper with replaceable blades on printables is amazing. Additionally search the bendable ones. They really get anything stubborn up

    Great video. I like that top mount. Most in the past do not have the stiffeners and the A1 is top heavy the the top mount AMS, this solves that problem. I didn't have any problem aligning the build plate with my pre-recall A1 but seem to with it's replacement I just got. Not sure it's it's the new printer or what. If they would remove or move forward the rear magnets on the heat bed I thing it would solve this problem or make the stops on the back of the heat bed bigger/taller. While I like my BBL A1 regretfully "getting back to you quickly" (14.32) is not a something BBL apparently can do. Their support is some of the worst I have ever seen.

    • @Creatorrific
      @Creatorrific  หลายเดือนก่อน

      The inserts are only need if you're using certain spools like the Sunlu brand that have a larger hole, otherwise you're fine without it. If you're using spools that have a larger hole with the AMS Lite top mount though, it's certain to fall off so you should for sure use an adapter in that situation.

    • @Creatorrific
      @Creatorrific  24 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Please disregard the build plate aligner. A firmware update made this upgrade obsolete since the print head now homes in that position, so it would collide with the aligner. I've since updated a refreshed list of accessories.

    I would love to see an AMS Lite mount that actually mounts it upside down. Is it just me or is it a real pain feeding the filament into those ports where you can't see them? The regular AMS is SO much easier. Take me seconds to put in a new spool on my X1C and minutes to do it on my A1. Most of that time is spent fumbling with unseen entry port.

Mine came with one today, but I also purchased a filament sample box that is coming in another shipment with filament? Doesn't say on the website it comes with filament sample squares. I mean it was only $17 so I'm not fussed, but yeah.
    Got a p1s and an a1 so far that replaced my ender 3 v2's. Probably set them up in the garage now that they're on klipper and use them for something I guess, still decent machines but cannot compare to bambu in any way at all. I was shocked when I got the p1s at how easy and clean everything was. Definitely the current market leader especially for beginners.

    How can you print without an inclosure? I heard pla and others absorb moisture causing issues.

    • @Creatorrific
      @Creatorrific  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Not an issue. Enclosures mainly seperate fumes from the environment for potentially toxic filament like ABS. The moisture that PLA absorbs really isn't an issue but TPU is a whole other story - you'll want to fully dry any TPU before printing or there's going to be guaranteed issues. Storing filament inside of a tote bin with plenty of dessicant packages with dry your filament fine.

    can you use 20mm on the top mount vs 23 mm? i have a bunch of 20mm. lmk and thanks

    • @Creatorrific
      @Creatorrific  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      23 would be more ideal. The attachment hinge is only about 17.5mms wide. The screw in inset slightly about the thickness of the head, so it cuts it to maybe 16.5 mms meaning that the 20mm screw would have less than 4mms to ancor. I'd go 23mms especially considering the weight of the ams, spools and vibrations from printer. Hope that helps!

    Very professional video and I needed some of those files. Thank you. Regarding the AMS on top of the gantry-- I may be the only one in the world who worries about it, but I don't like mounting spool holders on top of any of my printers. It's almost a certainty that the amount of mass in those devices will accentuate movement from the bed and other moving parts adversely affecting the precision of the prints. I could be wrong. The mass may actually serve as dampers instead, improving your prints. Maybe an engineer will chime in. Subbed and liked.

      Thanks for your support! I'm glad that you liked the video.. It doesn't hurt to air on the side of caution - if you have desk space available go ahead and setup the AMS beside your printer. Personally, I didn't notice any difference in the print quality when top-mounted.. It would use up some filament but you can also try and compare.

    I don’t know if anyone else takes this shortcut … when switching to the external spool, you would need to disconnect one of the PTFE tubes from the print head and insert the external spool PTFE tube into the open spot. Since pulling a tube from the print head side is quite the frustrating task, even with special tools, I do it differently. The small length of PTFE tube on the external spool holder gets disconnected and put away. When you need to use the external spool, you will not need the AMS lite, so simply disconnect the PTFE tube from an empty slot on the AMS (the tube disconnects very easily from this end) and connect that end of the tube to the external spool connector. You will need to feed more filament through the longer tube to get it to the print head but this won’t cause any issues while printing except with flexible filaments with hardness less than 85a. I have used 85a with this arrangement and the extra friction from longer tube with a longer turn was able to print well but when unloading, the friction was noticeable. My filament has a matte finish on the raw filament and that also contributes to the friction. As usual, make sure your filament is nice and dry before using this method since it may need to make sharper turns before reaching the print head and brittle filaments are not PTFE-friendly.
