This is the type of tutorial I appreciate. It is in depth but not talking down to a person and provided an actual example and thorough reasoning behind each decision.
Thanks so much for the comment. That truly is my goal when making these. My favorite saying is you don’t know what you don’t know. So I try to keep that in mind and explain it so anyone can follow. Thanks again and I hope the video helped you!
Thanks for the video. I have a question concerning the Bambu AMS. I purchased the A1 Combo. I also have the A1 Mini. Can I use the same AMS with the Mini? Or, is necessary to purchase an additional AMS unit designed for the Mini? Thanks in advance for your reply. Richard
Great video. Learned a few tips. On the "poop" issue, you can select where the "poop" goes . It can go to infill and/or object and/or supports. Select under "Others"/"Flush Options".
@@ItsMeaDMaDeflush setting don't eliminate poop. the part it doesn't affect is in the beginning of the print, or the startup. On printables I put my poop shoot that has a removable bin from the side. All the others I have seen has the bin in the back. on my printer I don't have easy access to the back. It also has a side spool mount. replacing the rear mount for alternate filaments like TPU.
Your removable side chute sounds great, as well as the TPU-feed compatible side spool mount...! What should we search for in Printables to find these designs...? Thanks ! @@RobertONeillPhotos
Just installed my AMS and this was the first video I clicked on. Thank you. I don't need to go watch any other video. Very thorough and doesn't seem to be anything left out.
I just ordered my Bambu A1 and am binge watching your Bambu Studio videos. Thank you for these incredibly in-depth videos with so many examples for everything. Awesome work!
you can print a purge object instead of a tower in order to not waste that filament (just a random object with around the same height, for which coloring is not a factor)
If I download a model that has three or four colors that are already in my AMS but the spools are in the wrong location, how do I change the settings in the print to make sure that the correct color prints in the correct spot? Or do I simply have to change the spool locations on the AMS instead?
Great tutorial! As far as the waste goes, I thought I read somewhere about people doing their color primes in actual models? Like an additional model where they don't care about the color and color changes that wind up being in it? Simpply run the minimum amount of filament out as "poop" and the actual color/material transition can occur in the prime model. Once your print is complete, you get your focus part as well as a little bonus part instead of a blocky prime tower!
Another fantastic tutorial! I’m 3 weeks into figuring out 3D printing. I’m learning how to use a Neptune 3 max and a bambu P1S, you’ve been instrumental with helping figure out cura and bambu studio. Keep up the great work Chris!
Great video tutorial very well explained i just got an A1 last month and these tutorials really help to learn my way around my new found hobby 3d printing .
WOW... Keep these tutorials coming... I'm just printing out some tools & holders and some must haves to really setup my X1C with top lighting. My other accessories/plates came today so I can print PETG + others.
@@ItsMeaDMaDe My wife hates it... the high pitch squeeel especially with the super fasst infill.... so all my printing has to be done when she is gone... I can't win!!
Thanks very much it's a great instructional video and it opens your eyes as to waste which is a good thing as a new user of Bambu Alexa printers but not new to 3-D printing I'm smitten with my new acquisition and I am now seriously contemplating getting the Carbon version. I definitely think the AMS system is the way forward with 3-D printing in general and should be an option for all 3-D printers as long as we have a solution to the waste that's generated that is both affordable and produces something that we can use so we basically end up with virtually no waste at all. I've subscribed and I'm looking forward to seeing new videos and your previous ones.
I just got my first 3d printer. Bambu Labs A1. I thank you for your videos here. And “How to” aside, thank your for the advice as well. Had no idea how much waste there is with color changes. Regardless of that, I knew that I was going to print multiples.
Thank you for these in depth tutorials. I just want to say that your content is very engaging, maybe its your enthusiasm, all the tips and tricks and how its presented in an easy to digest manner. I tend to zone out in boredom when I'm watching tutorials but these vids have been great I'm right there with you on your views with the filament waste btw. I don't plan to throw away any of them, 3D printing is awesome but it already introduces a lot more plastic thats not easily biodegradable. Throwing purge blocks and ams poop on top of that makes me feel terrible. I'll be collecting all of them same as you when my printer comes in. I'm also hoping that we will be able to recycle the plastics in the near future!
Hi Chris, I'm glad you're making these Bambu videos. I've had my bambu printer for a while now so I personally am doing ok with mine. However there are still a few things I struggle with. I'll be giving this video a watch later tonight. I do have another idea for a future video. Do you think you will make a bambu video on printing with pla and using petg for a support interface layer and vice versa? This works so well. The underside of my models with overhangs come out just as good as the top surface. I think the community could benefit from your easy to understand way of explaining stuff.
@@ItsMeaDMaDe excellent! I did it for the first time the other day. Honestly if you haven't already done it (which I'm sure you must of) you'll be amazed. I have read some people saying you can do it the other way around such as using pla as your support interface for a petg print but so far I've had no success. Maybe you'll have better luck than me. I just managed to watch this video of your on support painting tonight in work. Thanks for showing me some more new stuff dude 👊
Yes, PLA with PETG is a lifesaver for me. I am sure someone has a better setting than I use. But no more hours trying to clean up a print. Some only take a minute or two, which is quite cheap. Oh yes, you might talk about how to save on the cost of filament. I buy at least 10 rolls at a time and get free shipping and 50% off. Enjoy
@@rix_flix it's because pla and petg filament are not compatible with each other. In other words they will not bond to each other very much so using petg as your support interface for a pla print will allow you to peel off your supports leaving a practically perfect finish and none or very little scars on the underside of your model. You can only do this on a printer like a Bambu though with AMS so it automatically switches between filament for you. First time I did it I was in disbelief as the underside that had been touching the supports was better quality than my top surface and my top surface is pretty damn good anyway. If you haven't done it and have a bambu I'd seriously advise giving it a go
Good video. Very well done and easy to follow along with you. Yes it is good if you keep going on into the software, it will help us all I am sure. Thank you
Brand new to 3d Printing, and came across this video. I normally only watch to see what i needed to know and then move on ... i watched the entire video. Respect! I have subscribed and liked the video. Thank you!
Thanks for the great video. I have Ender 3 and K1 so am coming from Crealty software and Cura. I just ordered the P1S with AMS and this is very helpful and gave me something to do while waiting for it to arrive!
Watched all your vids to learn how to get down the basics at slicing. My class is teaching me CAD but ignores slicing but you've given me plenty to study, thank you. Your vids are better than some 10x your sub count, please keep it up!
Thanks so much for your educational and entertaining video. I feel like you have a production value of a much bigger channel(I hope that's not taken as a back-handed compliment). I think you are going to get exponentially more followers as everyone is getting into 3d printing. Your style and branding is perfect for merch. I believe all you need to do is keep doing what you're doing. Thanks again for all the knowledge.
Wow, thank you! Not a back handed compliment at all. I appreciate your comment I hope one day I become a bigger channel. For now I’ll just help the people that find me. 😁
Hey hey, that’s my The Office model! When I saw the other one in the first part of your video, I wished you would have found mine. Then it showed up! 🎉
Lovely tutorial, simply explained and yet very detailed. I am waiting for my P1S to arrive and and completely new to 3d printing but this tutorial gave me a great headstart. And hopefully there will be a way to recycle the poops into new fillament
Very informative! I am keeping my filament waste also for the multi color / material recycling. that's hard also because I have some ASA mixed into my bucket. I am keeping my glow filament waste separate as I plan to shred it and use it to include in resin molds :) very excited for a Bambu like Filament recycle system that also has filament welding to combine filaments the next thing for you to explore is the adaptive smoothing feature for round items, like the panda's belly.
Very helpful video. Hopefully solved an issue I had. As far as poop. It is my intention to use mine in a raised garden bed as drainage material instead of rrocks and sticks.
3:07 For the best results and the smallest flush tower, hit the Auto-calc button and then typically apply a 0.5 multiplier. Also, make sure to use the "flush into infill" setting in the main panel.
Excellent video instruction. Starting to bonge your channel because I am finally taking the 3D printing stuff more seriously. One of the things that got me back interested is the power of being able to do multiple color prints. Sorry for the length of this comment. When you paint the model using the sphere, circle, or triangle tool how many layers are being painted - or is this a relevant question at all? I fear I may have a fundamental knowledge gap about the multicolor process and operation of the printer. I am trying to close that. I have been watching various videos on programs like hueforge and setting up models in F360, Inkscape/Tinkercad, etc. to not have to paint the models. I figured I needed to go back to basics to understand how the printer is interpreting the information and applying it. Your channel appears to do a good job o talking about basics so I subscribed and hit the all bell. This video touched the surface of this topic, will be binge watching and looking for more insights on how the printer is working. For example: I see people bring in multiple STL (let's say 4) that they export from TinkerCad. Then they stack them on the build plate, get them aligned and select each one to be a different color based on that layer. I still need to learn this and how that works. One question is does this then do one full color for each of those layers? If so how do I make sure the print is flush on the top (if that is what I wanted)? If I understand your video discussion aroung time 36, the colors need to change (however many are applicable) each layer so multiple flushes in a layer. But when I watch these other videos I get the impression they are making a color change per layer to end up with the colored result (like a hueforge print). I think I am confused. Sorry way too long but looking for insights on the fundamentals of how the printer is functioning with multiple color changes (hence the significant amount of waste you discussed. Do you have more in depth tutorials on this topic?
I saw someone make 3d printed molds to then make silicone molds. From there they would melt the poop colors all together and pour into the silicone molds and make really cool rainbow/ multi color filament castings such as a skull.
I used to work in the research department at Hallmark Cards. It was several years ago but we used an extruder to blend virgin material and rerun material. I would think there are smaller extruders out there you could extrude the poop material maybe blending it with a black die and extruding it to the same size as the filament.
This is an excellent video...more complete and detailed info on the AMS. I'm getting my P1S Combo in a week or so. In your chapter on changing the AMS colors, it seems that you have to tell the AMS what types and colors filaments are in it (perhaps, because you're using 3rd party filament). If you're using Bambu branded filaments, won't the AMS simply read the RFID tags and automatically know what kind and color filament is in it?
For the prime/flush tower you can create a "flushie" basically just create a new print from what's being flushed, super helpful if you don't mind the colour of the print 😁
@@jamesbrehm6941 there are tutorials on YT but from what I remember (in Bambu slicer) you put an object on the plate and right click and select flush into object there's two options for it just to be the infill or both infill and outside It significantly reduces the size of the purge block
Hi Chris, just got my 3D printer this Christmas and have been searching for training videos. Just wanted to let you know that yours are by far the most informative and best paced ones I have found.

you can print a purge object instead of a tower in order to not waste that filament (just a random object with around the same height, for which coloring is not a factor)
How do you do this? Like set a object as a "purge" object where it builds the changes?
Came here to say the same thing. ( Along with flush into infill)
@@joakimohman9071 Yes, in Prepare, click Objects mode (not global) and then pick an object, go to others, and check Flush into this object.
@@mbrick can you turn the tower off completely? I have a model that has a few highlights that look amazing, but add a ton of waste.

@@jamesbrehm6941You took the word right out of my mouth, perhaps in another video 😉
Color me happy. Thank you.
Thanks for the video brother
Hi Chris, just got my 3D printer this Christmas and have been searching for training videos. Just wanted to let you know that yours are by far the most informative and best paced ones I have found. Thank you so much for keeping it slow and detailed for newbies. Tried to find the poop chute in thangs but was not successful. Could you please provide a link to see if I can make one. Thank you again for your informative videos. Take care...
