nICE CONCISE VIDEO WELL PRESENTED. tHANKS SO MUCH.
Glad it was helpful!
cool, one more tip, if you want to be able to detach even more easily the part from the support change the Top and bottom Z distance from 0.2mm to 0.4mm. It will come out without effort, happens that 0.2mm (the default value) is good for soluble support
Thank you for the feed back. I did not mention in this video that i actually switched to a 0.6mm nozzle some time ago, which means the support is 0.3mm. And you are right, this does make the support detach easier. I highly recommend the 0.6mm nozzle, as it improves the print time without any noticeable quality changes. I left the 0.4mm in the video since most people use that size nozzle. I plan a future video discussing the 0.6mm nozzle and I will include your comments about the support.
How did you like the blade?
I thought it performed reasonably well. However, I only had a couple of small 4 1/2" blades to compare it to, and those were awful for this application. I watched a few UA-cam videos on diamond blades before I fully understood "Use soft diamonds for hard concrete, and hard diamonds for soft concrete". In other words the answer depends on your application. Lots of advice online. I encourage you to research. One thing I have learned is that the cheapest wheels are not always the best and cheapest in the end.
Very nice. We basically built the same a few videos ago (but without the battery)
Thanks. Then you realize like I did, that it seems a waste of time...until you need it. I am glad I built mine.
Thanks!
Welcome!
Thanks. Which link is for the last spool winder shown?
I apologize, but I don't fully understand your question. I posted 3 links to spool winder designs. The last link "The version I would use if doing this over:" is for the version I would use if doing this now. www.printables.com/@Damian27/collections/1304611. I only discovered this version after I had already made my spool winder. My own contribution should be clearly understood from the video. By the way, I have used this spool winder more often than I imagined. It comes in really handy when there is an issue with a filament spool. Good luck with your own project.
Those filters in that extractor are yelling, "Use a dust bag!". Very informative video. Thanks for sharing. I was struggling to get this thing to work. The instructions leave much to be desired...
I use cyclones for some of my shop vacs. I much prefer those to dust bags. I have many dust collection videos in production with far more information. Glad you liked the video.
Nice vid and info. I'm just starting out awaiting a Bambu A1 combo. This sort of vid is exactly what I need to see as a newbie before getting the A1. Thanks for sharing chap. SUB'd
I'm glad you found the video useful, and welcome to the world of 3D printing.

I like your no BS STYLE. Very clear instructions.
Glad you like them!
me gusta mucho su idea de proyecto.enhorabuena.
Gracias. Muchos más vídeos en producción.
Thanks 😊
You're welcome!
Very logical 👍
Thank you
I noticed you anchored the filament in a hole on the side of the new spool. There has been some recent discussion on Bambu's forum about the way the filament is now being taped to the cardboard spool and has caused damage to the AMS. Look it up if you're interested. Great video by the way, keep up the good work.
Yes, you are right. It is best to allow the spool to unwind all the filament unrestricted especially if using the auto-refill function of the AMS. Thanks for pointing this out.
Nice video! Concise and to the point! Thanks!
Glad you liked the video. I have dozens of videos in production, but short on time to get them finished and published.
If your buying Bambu filaments why would you need to spool it on to a new one
You probably don't. However, as I mentioned in the video, I had had a Bambu Labs REFILL that I had come apart when I did not properly assemble the spool. It would have taken me forever to recover this filament as it was a complete mess. The spool winder made it easy. I have also found instances where Bambu simply don't sell the filament I need. I recently bought some TPU85A. Bambu only sells the 95A version. I needed something more flexible so I used another brand. You cannot use TPU in the AMS, but I use homemade dryer boxes with bearings (ua-cam.com/video/VvDmxLySSPU/v-deo.html). This spool did not fit in my dryer box, and the bearings were critical in feeding this soft filament. Another example was buying HIPS filament for use with ABS support material. Bambu sells this only in 0.5KG spools. I found another brand much cheaper, but the spool was incompatible. Had to respool. Anyway, hopefully you will never make the mistake I made when using a refill. If you do, you will want a respooler.
@@JANtheDane 😀 Yeah no i agree. I myself buy only Bambu but i was also looking at different loading spools in case i would buy a different brand
I find most of the Bambu filament quite resonably priced when bought in bulk. It is so easy to not have to mess with filament profiles, and they carry almost all filament types...with a few exceptions.
I saved myself the trouble and hot glued the hygrometer in place. Given that these things have good battery life, it is unlikely that I'll have to deal with that any time soon.
@@thenoddingturtle Hot glue is very easy to remove and replace, so I doubt you will have issues.
Holy crap! You never know what, or who, you're going to find here on UA-cam! I'm so glad that I was suggested this video! This was an amazing tutorial for a great product!
Thank you for the kind comments. I am glad you liked the video.
Just came across your feed. This is great! Recently retired and had gotten myself a cnc, and bambu printer. I’m an old PTC dog (pro engineer - CREO) I have been using Fusion since retirement and self learning. Your ideas are a great example for me! Thank you! I am getting ready to make a drilling jig for cabinet handles and was going to buy knobs for adjusting the jig. Not anymore! I’m making them! 👍👍👍
I am glad you like the videos. I too am retired, and busier than ever. I have dozens of videos in production. Many jigs and tools I have invented. I just need to find the time to edit and complete the recordings. By the way, knobs...I have so many of them in my shop, but they always seem to be the wrong size when I need one. 3D printing is making life so much better.
Am from zambia lusaka i need this mag drill your e.maill or whatsapp plz
You make it look too easy.
Working with Fusion can be overwhelming at first. But if you take the time to watch the videos on UA-cam to learn the app, it is incredibly rewarding. I design new things almost daily, and once you get the hang of it, you can design things faster than going to hardware store. The best part is the ability to make thing nobody else on Earth has.
It is always good to have more than one option besides buying. By the way, why did you choose to use brass inserts? why not trying the captive nut method? where you can stop midprint to insert a nut inside the piece
I considered that very strongly, and as you can see in my other videos, I use that technique for embedded magnets. The inserts are getting so cheap that it doesn't matter all that much. Today, I am uploading another video using an old bolt for a star knob stud.
So do you still need to dry in a dryer first then put it inside the box or will it dry in the box only aswell?
It depends. If you use the drybox right after opening the manufacturers vacuum sealed container, I would think it is already dry. Additionally, if you use fresh desicant (and lots of it), the filament should dry with time. The hygrometer reading should tell you. TPU seems especially prone to moisture problems.
@@JANtheDane I got a spool of TPU from Geeetech and put it straight into the dryer despite the fact that it seemed to have been sealed well (air whoosh when punctured). 12 hours later (my Sunlu S1 only goes to 55C) the spool lost 7g of moisture. ~0.7% of moisture by weight isn't insignificant, so I glad I did that.
@thenoddingturtle yes, all my TPU prints improved after drying
Great ingenuity!
Thank you
I too have made something similar, but instead of an axle running through the sides of the box, I’ve made what I call a ‘skate’, i.e., four grooved rollers on a backbone (that sits on the bottom of the box, with the rollers up in the air). The spool edges roll on those grooved rollers. This makes replacing the spool inside the box a cinch: just lift the old spool and put in a new one.
I had seen one of those before designing mine (perhaps the one you made?), but it did not seem to fit the boxes I had purchased. Feel free to post a link here. We all like choices. So often when I search for designs online I find that someone simply used different words or names for whatever I am seeking, and I needlessly end up drawing my own designs.
@@JANtheDane drawing one's own design is rarely something done needlessly. Getting to design is a great way to learn how to design something properly (not that I'm saying yours wasn't designed properly-but rather that the design process is one of looking for flaws to fix and improve, rinse and repeat-a professor of mine even said: "learn when to say 'enough!' to a design process"-often we end up in a quagmire of lateral non-improvements that only consume time without any real improvement. .
This does not work
It works just fine for me. The chamber light if turned off before the print will turn on and off by itself, and inserting the code as described in the video will control the logo light. Did you verify that you saved the new profile and that you selected that profile for the print?
Are the machining activities you carry out in your home/residential workshop?
I am retired and build stuff in my shop that I built myself. So yes, my residential workshop.
I did not specify what "AB1" in the specifications mean. Here is a complete explanation: g.co/gemini/share/ea2378743515
I designed something similar for what I believe is the exact same box. My first iteration used bearings, but I had issues with the roll of filament spinning too easily. I changed the design to use a solid shaft with printed bushing instead. Now it works great. I also designed a desiccant holder that attaches to my lid. I went with Govee bluetooth hygrometers for their small size and ability to accurately read low humidity levels.
Yes, while the hygrometers I used only cost about $3 each, I did see some rectangular models that only cost about a dollar if bought in bulk. There are a few filament drybox designs available online. One of the issues is that the boxes used often are not available. I printed a couple of other designs but I could not make them fit in the boxes I found, or the boxes needed were ridiculously expensive.
And the container stays as it were originally, with no screw holes. The filament exits through the small opening, held in check by a printed ‘funnel’ with a catch that keeps the filament from rolling back into the lid.
Oops replied to the wrong comment.
Best way is to recharge the desiccants, is to bake them in the oven for 4-8 hours at 200. The packets will have been partly depleted and wont work well in this manner if you use them this way... recharge them first. You can also use the microwave aswell, but you have to be careful you don't burn them, as that happens easily.
I recharge the desicant in the microwave set on defrost. Takes only a few minutes
200C or 200F?
@@rackbites Fahrenheit...
Cool.
Thanks. More variants are coming soon
Well, that is super handy to have!
