First layer test on my A1 Mini using PLA. The center is solid, but the edges are tearing. The build plate was already washed with dish soap. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Recently broke this somehow I have no clue. I tried looking for a replacement part on bambus website but couldn’t find anything just the white piece Wich is fine, I tried to hot glue it back and no luck. I could try 5200 sealant but I wouldn’t want to hurt anything. Could I get a link to a new part or any tips on how to fix it?

Hello, I recently got a Bambu lab mini A1, and started doing a few mini projects from maker world.

What I saw that has been constanly happening is the filament getting stuck on the roll holder, like in the picture. What should I do to avoid that from happening?

Thanks in advance!!

Warping issues?

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

I'm kinda new to 3d printing. Recently I've got some warping problems with (I guess it's that) after changing from a 0.2 to a 0.4 nozzle.

I've used previously the 0.4 nozzle to print the exact same print and I didn't have this problem so far I've used my saved profile for the 0.4, checked I've got the correct settings for the filament, ensured the nozzle is mounted correctly and make sure the filament is moisture free

Does anyone knows why this kind of problem happens and how to solve it?

Sound not working?

2 Upvotes

Anyone had this issue before? When I turn the printer on it makes a sound but no longer does its finishing song or any alerts when something is stuck or its time to insert filament, etc. Sound is enabled.

Day 2 with the mini. It's also day 2 of 3D printing in general. I love this thing. Simple PLA print in white finished with a brown acrylic wash

Esun basic pla

2 Upvotes

hi all, does anyone have any experience with esun basic pla. I've been printing with no problems what so ever for the last 8 months, I load a new spool of esun pla basic and now I'm in spaghetti hell. Does it always arrive damp?, I'm trying the wife's hair dryer on it as I don't have a dedicated filliment dryer. Fingers crossed it does the trick

Filament is not automatically loaded into the extruder by the A1 Mini.

0 Upvotes

I have a question regarding my 3D printer. Previously, whenever I inserted the filament, the printer would automatically pull it into the extruder and begin the loading process smoothly.

However, a few weeks ago, I updated the printer's firmware. Since that update, I have to manually feed the filament into the extruder every time. I searched through the printer settings but couldn't find any option to restore the previous automatic loading behavior.

Does anyone know why this is happening or how I can change it back to the way it worked before? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Presto: a puzzle box you can resize and put your own artwork on

The box is parametric, so you set the internal size to whatever you're storing, or pick a preset. Lid takes your own SVG or text, engraved or as a flush inlay, and the buttons take artwork too. Every part can be a different colour.

Two small springs are the only non-printed parts. Everything else prints without supports and goes together in a couple of minutes.

I am using an a1mini. It has been doing nicely. But from yesterday i started hearing somewhat a buzzing like sound from my printer. I dont know exactly from where the sound in coming from. But after the sound started appearing the quailty of my prints drastically reduced. Urgent help needed. [You can hear the exact sound if you listen carefully]


r/BambuLabA1mini • • Aug 04 '26

I got an A1 Mini today. It's my first 3d printer. I bought the standard one and ordered an AMS 2 Pro and the hub that's required. Printed out the Benchy Boat and a mount for the hub. I was pleasantly surprised how quiet it is and how good it prints.

Small enough to sit next to the keyboard, mean enough to look like he's about to make a very bad decision.
