    Bambu just a quick suggestion for all of your printers could you make a kit for adding 3rd party cameras such as the insta 360 link and have it be the printer camera on bambu handy and studio

    PSA: this only happens, when you have weak bed adhesion!
    Usually, it is enough to clean the magentic bed regularly with dish soap and avoiding leaving finger smudges on the bed. But don't be afraid to use the bed adhesion glue, it is much less work than cleaning a blob.

      No I am never using adhesion glue, not if I'm printing PLA, PETG or TPU at least.

      Good tip but glue is for the bed safety it allows you to easly remove 3D model form the bed without damaging it. It doesn't help with athesion or help just a little.

      My printer supplier explicitly told me I should have cleaned the bed with isopropyl alcohol after every print and you will never have this issue. So yeah. I’m ordering that along with a new nozzle because mine was damaged pretty bad the other day.

    I had this and i could not get the hot end that clean and the hinges for the nozzle was all stuck with filament. I just went to the bambu lab site to order a new hot end and that was much better then trying to clean it.

    What kind of magic gloves let you handle a 250 degree chunk of metal?

    • @OGAuror
      @OGAuror 2 месяца назад +5

      Literally cotton glove liners lol
      They sell them for cooking/BBQ.
      Liners + nitriles let you handle very hot things.
      I would still be careful, but they work really well.

    yeah you should probably mention not touching the hot end while you are unscrewing all of that and wear the gloves. one slip and you are burnt. i would't even put the gloves on the heated hot end. should use a qtip or a tool

      I heated up the hot end in maintenance mode too 250 degrees then once it reached that temp I took it out of the unit and wiped the physical hot end and every thing whipped right off like in the video I used a regular papper towel now a baby whip would have been nicer and I Will stress to make sure you wear heat safe glove to protect your hands it is very hot

  • @zdenekchalupa
    @zdenekchalupa Месяц назад +2

    Everything is good, but there is one problem that is not in this video. The filament remains in the hinges of the hot-end fuse and it hardens as soon as it cools down and cannot be opened or cleaned.

    It doesn’t work this way. It’s never that easy and doesn’t come out that clean. It’s always replace everything when it happens. I have yet been able to clean it up so it worked without replacing a lot of parts.

      @radish6691 2 месяца назад

      @@SteveBennet500 The one time this happened to me I knew bed adhesion would be dicey and yet I didn’t monitor the print. I did not fault the printer design because the problem was entirely preventable by me, also because through 7+ years of printing I have a pretty good understanding of design decisions/tradeoffs so I don’t think this is an unreasonable or unexpected outcome. I have an idea for a modification but I believe it would result in reduced print quality or possibly other issues so I’ll just be extra diligent when it comes to print adhesion. You clearly feel differently and maybe see a solution that is not apparent to me so we will agree to disagree. Happy 3D printing!
