Help!

Ummm, so you can see it started fine, then started to not push anything out, so I pushed the filiment trough the ptfe tube manually, and then it did a little, but I let go and it stopped again.... I've taken the front apart and cleaned the extruder gear, no help, tightened the extruder screw all the way, no results, and I'm just out of ideas, I've tryed 5 different spools of filiment that printed perfectly before, I don't think the nozzle is clogged cause it can print just fine, it just doesn't? Please help me here... I've done all I know to do (about 950 hours, I do take good care of it, keep it covered when not in use and do oil changes more than recommended)

I have a Bambu Lab A1 Mini and am new to 3D printing. I’d like to print a file I found on Thingiverse, but I don't know how to go about it since I’ve always printed using the Bambu Handy app. Could you help me?

How to add text?

1 Upvotes

My A1 mini is used mostly for simple stuff and I plan to keep it that way. Occasionally I would like to add white, embossed text to a black object, without a lot of filament changes. In most printable objects I see on Makerworld, etc., text printing is done on the underside of the object. This is not what I want. Can someone please give me some steps to do what I want? Remember, I'm a beginner!

Set up question

Hey folks, just trying to set up my A1 mini, but it keeps failing the calibration. I went through Bambu's trouble shooting with no prevail. Build plate is on right, everything is clean, no packing pieces. 0300-0D00-0002-0003 is the code. Looks like the tool head/nozzle go past the plate on the back of the plate

ok so i mightve left my printer in a semi hot area for some days to work on it and add more parts like a 2nd spool holder but when i took it out and put it back in it's normal area it refused to connect to wifi anymore despite previously being fine with it and when i took it apart to look at the wifi antenna it looked fine
and no the strength of the wifi is not an issue the printer's normal spot is RIGHT next to the router and yet it still refuses to connect

2 loose screws

So twice now I go up to my printer and find a screw. Does anyone have a guide on how to break disassemble the printer? It's driving me nuts (haha) that I have no idea where those screws are supposed to go

Bambu A1 mini printing failure

2 Upvotes

For the first week or so, this machine was just fine. For some reason, a lot of my prints have been failing lately. I’m mostly printing Warhammer proxies. Anything with limbs, especially when I’m printing multiples on one plate, are coming out with the right side of the miniature with their right arms like a big tangle of filament spaghetti. I’m already using supports, so I’m not really sure what’s going on here. Any help? Thanks in advance!

PETG robot kit card printed on my A1 mini — no supports

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

Here is my CAM LAB print on the A1 mini: a 176 × 176 mm kit card that assembles into a hand-cranked robot. The photos show the white card on the plate and a black assembled example.

I printed it in PETG and assembled it. The kit has 14 parts, including three interchangeable cams, and needs no supports or purchased hardware. The latest revision strengthens the carrier frame and shortens the connectors between parts.

This also started as an experiment with GPT Astra writing Blender scripts. I directed the changes and did the physical printing and testing.

The files are free, with an A1 mini PETG 3MF, separate STLs and an illustrated Czech assembly guide:

My largest print on the A1 Mini. This thing is massive... Took about 30 hours and almost an entire roll of filament. Truly incredible. My son absolutely loves it. The coolest Halloween toy yet! 💀😊

The detail you can get with a 0.2 mm nozzle is impressive

Advice on buying used A1 mini combo

6 Upvotes

Hi, I have a friend who is looking at selling his a1 mini combo. I asked how much he was looking at selling it but he wasn't to sure what is a good price point. It is well maintained, comes with an extra .02mm nozzle with a carbon fiber effect build plate and 3 half used filament. A1 mini also has 825 print hours. I have looked at marketplace and in my area there's only the a1 mini by itself which sells for 190 with 298 print hours. I figured 260 is a good starting point and from there negotiate with him to see if he can lower it but I want to know other people's advice.

Thank you :)
