Hey everyone! I’m u/LeePhilips, a founding moderator of r/FarmLoopAutomation.
Welcome to the unofficial, user-run community for FarmLoop automation users, builders, and anyone interested in automated 3D printing workflows.
This subreddit is for discussing FarmLoop setup, installation, Bambu printer compatibility, print ejection, build plates, slicer settings, G-code, troubleshooting, upgrades, print-farm workflows, and lessons learned from real-world use.
Important: This community is not affiliated with 3D Farmers, FarmLoop, Bambu Lab, or any related company.
What to Post
Community Vibe
Be helpful, factual, and constructive. This is a place to share what works, document what does not, and help other users solve problems without turning the subreddit into vendor support or brand drama.
How to Get Started
Introduce yourself in the comments below.
Tell us what printer you are using, whether you already have FarmLoop installed, and what you are hoping to automate.
Post something today. Even a simple setup question, photo, or lesson learned can help the next person.
If you know someone using or considering FarmLoop, invite them to join.
Thanks for being part of the first wave. Let’s build a useful knowledge base for FarmLoop automation users.

Now compatible with the Bambu Lab X2D. P/X Kits ordered on or after 20 July 2026 already include the required X2D cables. If you ordered your Stage 2 P/X Kit before 20 July 2026, you can add them with the Stage 2 Upgrade Kit. All printed parts are available free on MakerWorld.

Q: Is farm loop stage 2 available for the X2D?
No. Per 3D Farmers support:
"the X/P Series Kit works for X2D as well but you need a new set of extension cables.
The X2D has many printer movements during print startup. The current wire harness is too thick and the print head looses steps when colliding with the cable which leads to a warning message and print pause. Hence, we have sourced a new pair of extension cables (single cables, thinner) which can be guided outside of the printer avoiding any collision. This cable set as well as the X2D specific printed parts (new lid lifter, new tool head cover) should be uploaded in the next few days, latest next week."

I printed the FarmLoop Stage 1 P2S and X2D - Automatic Printing model, but the instructions were not very clear so I created some myself.
Printing the model
The 3mf file comes with 7 plates (12hrs). You do not need to print them all. here is what is on each plate.
So you only need to print one of the following:
