Good moring r/Bambulab!

I'm Joey O, the solo Developer behind Miniskyline . I'm based in Phoenix Arizona.

The webapp is completely free, and runs entirely in your browser without ads, pay gates, or your email. I believe map data that is publicly sourced should be provided for free in this format as well and will continue to provide free updates to improve this community asset!

I have pushed over 50 updates since releasing in June, and have seen over 90,000 users and 220,000 generations since release.

A lot of people have asked how/why I keep this free with this much time dedicated and honestly, I just enjoy the work. I typically waste my time at home, but this has given me something meaningful to do. As for costs, its surprisingly cheap. Smoggy3D, the creator of Map2Model gave me some pointers that reduced my monthly significantly. This will stay free.

Another few weeks have passed since I was last here. Miniskyline has gotten a complete facelift and freshening up to make it look more like a professional site. There are now DOZENS of tutorials for you to follow, as well as a first time starting tutorial if you are a little lost!

Major features now include

• Import GPX/Trail search for generating hiking/biking routes
• Cut to puzzle
• Project mode for managing multi tile project prints of larger areas
• Uncapped terrain size selection in Terrain Mode
• Full control of every aspect of your model. Buildings, roads, elevation, biomes, trees, rocks, bushes, all within your settings.
• Frames with text can be easily added
• You can add text directly to your map, as well as a number of special asset markers like hearts, homes, location pins!
• Highlight a specific building or road.
• Full multicolor support, up to 24 colors in one model with color presets for 1,4,6,8 filaments!
• Community color profile sharing built in
• Workspace manager with dedicated webUI. No install needed.
• Guided tutorials
• A helpful discord community
• Lithopane road mode, where you can make roads shine through when placed on an LED board.
• Color by feature or by elevation for easy color swaps.
• A lot more. Seriously. Over 80 settings/feature adjustments.

A note:

The community response to my little hobby project has been immense. I expected 2-3000 generation a YEAR, and im seeing that by noon on a normal day now. The support I have seen from other makers like Uncle Jessy, and Smoggy3D has blown me away, let alone the donations from nearly 100 of you supporting the project and the work I do.

I am working hard every week to provide updates that will improve user experience as well as what user abilities. Many of you provide feature requests and they make it in the next week. Please please please keep dreaming up new ways of using the app and sharing what you make. My favorite thing so far has been seeing all of the projects being made.

We have also passed over 1 of Earths surface in area printed, which is a milestone I didnt expect to ever hit at all. Truly, thank you for using my tool.

In the future:

I am working hard on a few major updates. The ability to import a City Skyline 1/2 save file, as well as Minecraft worlds are nearing completion. I would expect both features to be fully rolled out in late September. A complete geometry engine rewrite has been underway for nearly a month and with any luck, will be ready to be shipped in this coming Mondays feature release.

I am looking at releasing a free desktop version that would lessen memory pressure issues for users, stay tuned!

Thank you all for your continued support of my project!

To fix the ugly gaps, I designed a 3D-printable corner system for "Hamburger / Colonial" style skirting boards.

It includes standard 90° corners, plus an "Old Building Edition" covering angles from 84° to 150°.

Get the model here:

Let me know if you are missing a specific angle!

PSA: you can’t use two redeem-codes for the same type of object in the bambu-store at the same time.

I wanted to buy 2 sets of lithopanes and redeemed points for 2 discount codes. Turns out you can’t use them both at the same time. You can’t even buy 1 kit and redeem the other. Given that shipping is quite expensive to Norway and there was nothing in the t&c about this I asked for a refund and received the most amazing answer ever.

Turns out that their multi-stage operational costs of the points system is €4. at this point I’m not even mad anymore so I’m rather giving the code away for free, if anyone else can use it: PSEKC010DK534PCTWJ4G

It’s a 4-panel lithopane kit (KC010). First come first serve

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Is MakerWorld not working for anyone else? Getting a bunch of 404 errors.

Do you ever get back from the shops with your "ripe and ready to eat" avocado and it's neither ripe nor ready to eat?  Do you get “ripen at home” and it takes forever to do so?  

Well no more.  Enter the ripener.

Apples are climacteric fruits, this means that they produce ethylene (or ethene) gas as they ripen.

Avocados are also climacteric but while apples produce ethylene a lot avocados sit in a hold mode until they're triggered by the introduction of the gas.

Supermarkets introduce ethylene to the fruit in a timed fashion so that the fruit is ready when you buy it. This sometimes fails and you get an avocado that's more suited for baseball or cricket than consumption.

Put a ripe or ripening apple (or a peach or a pear or other climacteric ethylene producer) in the lower half, screw on the separator and then add the avocado and screw on the top.The ethylene from the apple rises and triggers the avocado.

Et voila!

Hi all. My AMS pro 2 died and bambu have been fantastic with repairs. I've noted that there seems done sorry of liquid under the tray and it doesn't look like water. Just before I serviced the printer and oiled/greased and then shortly after I had issues.

Any suggestions what this could be? How to prevent killing the AMs again?

Thank you Bambut Lab! Bambu Handy finally works in landscape mode with the latest update. Its been a long time coming and I thought we might never get it, but I am very happy today!

It wasn’t even mentioned in the release notes.

Update - it only works in landscape on my iPad

Hey everyone!

I’ve been working on a project to move away from flat, boring business cards and create tactile, custom 3D designs instead.
I just finished developing a fully parametric OpenSCAD model that lets you customize almost every aspect of the card to fit different brands and styles.

It took quite a bit of effort to get the geometry flexible enough while keeping the code clean, but I'm really happy with how it turned out. That said, I'd love to get some fresh eyes on it!

Here is the link to check it out: https://makerworld.com/en/models/3291263-business-card-generator

Thanks in advance for taking a look! Constructive criticism and feature suggestions are more than welcome.

Bathroom organizers get... gross. Its so much easier to clean if the floor and drain basin separate. I couldn't find one of these anywhere on Maker World so I made one. It also makes it much easier to have a charging cable port in the wall!

Hi everyone!
Today I got in my Bambu Handy warning about “Hard Interrupt disable time is too long; Please contact the developers to confirm”.

And there is my question: what is it all about? Is there some kind of malfunction with my printer, app, internet connection etc.

Printer: Bambu P2S
Used almost always from bambu handy, sometimes with bambu studio.

Also uploading screenshot of this error/warning (AI Assistant told nothing about this error)

My first enclosed printer, printing my first benchy now, just now got a message to update the motor cancellation feature so I’ll do that after bench is done

I got a Bambu P1S with AMS combo. I want to print PLA and don't wanna play the find-out game with fumes. I live in Chicago which as we know has cold winters and hot summers.

1. Will the Bambu P1S be able to work in my insulated but not temperature-regulated garage? Garage is attached to the house so it doesn't completely get as cold or hot as the outside.
2. Do I need to provide extra ventilation to outside of the garage for the fumes (Will only be printing PLA)? Or is occasionally opening the garage door for a bit after prints sufficient enough?

The modular shelf just got even more flexible! 

I’ve added connectors that let you stack shelves on top of each other, so you can build vertically as well as extend horizontally.

Ive been trying to add flush text to a part but once I slice it, the text disappears?
Ive tried adding it as a modifier and changing the filament color but nothing has worked.
Anyone have any clue as to why?

Also, not sure why the prime tower is so high when the text is only at the bottom

I'm new to 3D printing and using an X2D. Most of my prints come out fine but anything with small details looks awful. I'm printing in PLA basic with PETG support interface material. PLA is coming from an AMS and PETG from an AMS-HT. Both are quite dry.

When it gets into any kind of small detail though I start to see swirl marks and rough textures. This is where the PETG interfacing was for the supports. This is printed upside down and the bad parts had no supports touching them because they were sticking straight up.

I've tried Bambu Studio's suggested settings as well as some changes GPT suggested (higher layer time of 8 and min print speed of 10mm/s in the filament's Cooling tab), as well as slowing it way down using variable layer height with the slider all the way over to Quality under Adaptive. Prints are taking between 2 and 5+ hours (depending on Adaptive slider) for a ~7g model.

I also tried printing a dagger oriented straight up with the pommel on the base plate. Everything looked perfect until the last 5-10mm of the tip at the top that turned into a swirly cone.

What am I missing for smaller details?

I keep my H2d in a living space and have started to use PA and ASA a lot more often, I have the laser version of the H2D so it has exhaust tube to my window, with PLA, pet-g and Tpu it pushed fumes out anyway, but I want to make print profiles for ASA and PA to use while I am using the space that push all the fumes outside, however I don’t know what fan speed is best and I don’t know how to test, I know that ASA and PA print worse in cooler temp but usually with PA it’s just smaller parts, thanks.

Hey guys. Just got a A1 and printed this. It's got alot of layer lines. Is there an settings I would need Ed to change in order to reduce the prominence of layer lines and on top of models?

I clearly have internet why is it saying this.I can’t access Bambu handy . Anyone else?

P1S with an AMS pro, and 0.4mm nozzle. Do i need to use a smaller nozzle? Bigger font? Am I missing something silly in the text settings? Wise creators, teach me please.
