  1. Glad I eeked out the two caps I needed before all hell broke loose in the AMS 2 Pro. I printed them with a 0.2mm nozzle using 0.08mm layers. Also the first time in the eight months with this #BambuLab H2S that I even took the shipping plastic off my smooth plate.

    Not quite injection moulded quality, but as close as I'm going to get. Pleased with them and the color is close enough.

    Rest of that spool goes in the trash.

  2. Got it all back together and everything still works. Yay.

    Here's a picture of the broken filament that caused it all. It was entirely inside the sandwich that is the hub, stuck between one of those magnets and the extruder gear. None of it was visible or reachable without taking half the AMS Pro 2 apart.

    The board you don't want to touch is on the back side of one of those halves and there's no reason to open it to deal with this problem. My mistake.

  3. That makes it impossible for the magnets to sit in their slots for you to then insert the delicate little springs in behind them.

    It occurred to me that I was fighting magnets attracting one another. What could combat that? A bigger f'ing magnet.

    So I grabbed a larger powerful magnet I had, held it on the opposite side and that caused all the little jumping beans to now pull INTO their slots toward the bigger one. That allowed me to get the springs in place. 3/x

  4. One of the springs instantly got misaligned, which takes tension off the little trapezoidal magnet behind it in a slot. I had to open it entirely, knowing I was likely walking into hell.

    The second you remove it, the magnets rip one another out of their slots. Fortunately, the springs caught in the crossfire stuck to things and didn't vanish into the ether.

    Then it's whack-a-mole. Each magnet pulls the other from its slot, so you can't hold them all at once. 2/x

  5. Wow! I found the part of your Bambu AMS2 Pro you do NOT want to open. That old blue filament worked well enough to print the caps. Then it broke into pieces in several parts of the AMS on unloading.

    Despite improved access in this model, if filament breaks inside the hub, you've got pain ahead. I found a shortcut, but I did look behind one tiny board I shouldn't have touched. Behind it are four springs and four magnets. Once the board gets a gap, they go nuts. 1/x

  6. Es ist noch so weit bis zur neuen #severance Staffel!

    Da musste jetzt das #design des Gehäuses für die #Steuerung des Wassertanks drunter leiden.

    Drin werkelt ein #esp32, der Temperatur und Füllstand misst und bei Frostgefahr die Heizung einschaltet.

    Anbindung an #HomeAssistant läuft via #MQTT.

    Hoffentlich bekomme ich das Ding noch vor dem #Frost an den Start.

    Entworfen in @FreeCAD , gesliced mit #orcaslicer , Druck läuft auf dem #BambuLab #P1S.

  7. Best extruder cover so far 👌🏽
    The loading circle is connected to the motor shaft, so it spins while printing :neocat_floof_cute:

  8. Bambu Lab A1 mini

    This thing is impressive–it’s about the size and print volume of my KP3S Pro but is only around 50% more expensive if you buy the printer alone or EUR 500 with the AMS, which seems like pretty good value for money and is only slightly above the price of a Prusa Mini on its own.(...)
