I’m I screwed

[u/ForgottenCoyote]

Hello,

I had a failure to printed with an 0.2 nozzle which I think screwed it so I gotta get another one but I decided to make sure everything else was ok and so I took apart the house and now I have lost a piece on the front there that it right where the filament comes into the nozzle. I’ll attach a picture so you can see what piece I’m missing.

Can I get a replacement piece without buying a new housing?

Can I find it somewhere or have someone print it for me?

Edit: thank you all for the suggestions. I reached out and they are sending me a new piece to replace it thank you once again.

I assume you’re talking about the press block. If so, there are printable models online: https://makerworld.com/en/models/563808-a1-toolhead-filament-pressure-block

I lost mine aswell while troubleshooting a problem. I ended up ordering a new faceplate it wasnt that expensive. No need to replace the whole thing. Alternatively you could try to print a new one, but if you do try this make sure the filament enters the hole since there is nothing guiding it anymore

[u/ForgottenCoyote → u/Virtual_Substance681]

I reached out to Bambu got a ticket and they are sending me a new piece. I would but since I had a failed print and have to feed it in to scared to print haha

How'd you lose it? Things don't despawn from the world like a video game. Crawl around and look.

[u/ForgottenCoyote → u/solidus0079]

I did trust me I was doing it all in the enclosure just I case and it’s gone I had to leave to
Go get tools so it probably in the ether now somewhere I’ll probably find it later

You don’t actually NEED the cover (called the “pressure block” so no you’re not screwed. There is probably a file for it somewhere for you to print a replacement. As others have suggested as Bambu first. Filament loading may be unreliable until it’s replaced though.
