I can't quite understand you only have 7000 subscribers, your videos are amazingly good and you tell everyone the names of the people who made the 3d print Keep up the good work
Thanks for your positive feedback. I have found YT to be a marathon so I’m in it for the long run. I believe that if I continue to try to improve with each video, eventually I’ll build up enough momentum to see my channel grow more significantly. In the meantime, comments like yours help me stay focused on the long-term goal😊
I know it does seem like all the 3d guys on RUclips print endless toys. You can start printing RC Planes, Car parts, Fashion design, Jewlery, Lost PLA metal molds, Cosplay ... trust me, you don't have to stick with the toys.
Just one comment to the LED riser. I have the same. One thing you need to ensure is that the lights are on by the time the print starts as that is when the camera does the white balanace. If you switch the lights on mid print you will see the white balance is completely off and you won't see anything. The design mentioned here doesn't seem to cause problems with the LIDAR either - which is great.
I'm liking this just 'cos you got your wife involved. Not sure mine would be as game. :D You may already know this, but she's a keeper! OK, I've just seen the end of the video.....😂 fantastic!
Well Done, wow this video has a wealth of information my P1S just landed and I found all the upgrades wonderful it must have taken you a while to put this all together so a big thank you for that.
Lol, it did take me a while to search RUclips on all of the various Bambu Lab upgrades out there and then narrow down to the best ones I wanted to implement for my printer. Please let me know when you get a chance on how you like your P1S. Also I’d be interested to hear if you implement any of my recommendations. Thanks for your feedback 😊
Thanks for all the work you did in compiling and presenting these great upgrades. Your links to printed and purchased materials are extremely helpful! You have a new subscriber. 👍
There are a lot of great upgrade recommendation videos on You Tube but this one tops them all if you have a Bambu X1-C. Yes I to print parts for my printer and all of these are must have upgrades! Many Thanks!
This single video was enough for me to subscribe. I've been doing a ton of research in regards to wanting to purchase a Bambu Labs X1-C printer with the AMS system. This video definitely gave me the confidence to fix a few of the issues that I've been seeing involving this printer - and is nearly guaranteeing my future purchase. Thank you so much! Incredible video, and thank you for the detailed, yet easy-to-follow tutorial.
Wow, I really appreciate your positive feedback! I’m glad you found my video helpful. Please feel free to reach out to me on any Bambu printer questions you may have now or in the future.
What’s up brother can I just say thank you for your support. I recognize some of those things in your background in the first few seconds. I appreciate you putting in the link as well. One day I hope to get into 3-D printing.
Hi Chris, Yes I really like your shelf supports and the drill holders. I even featured them in my 2022 Christmas gift ideas video. I wish you continued success in your business and let me know if you ever decide to get into 3D printing. I will be glad to help in any way.😊
I’m glad you liked the video! Yes, I’m really enjoying all the experiences with 3D printing. Do you like 3D printing as well? Thanks for your positive feedback😊
@@ristinnovations I got the bug 4 years ago and have been trying all the possible 3D printing areas I could get access to. Generally, people contact me and ask for things to be printed, strange things usually, a molecular modal dress for the World of wearable (WOW) arts fashion show and a museum quality replica Gurnard fish that a millionaire wanted instead of a stuffed fish on his wall, even printed a meter high Mars rocket for a Mars lander themed Santas Grotto last Christmas. It's been a fun ride. Never been brave enough to do a video though like you, much respect.
Snip the plastic lock on the polarized connector and print your own external lock that holds it in place. Less cumbersome to use than the tool that mitigates the small design flaw.
Minor thing. Putting the Hygrometer in the dessicant container at the front gets an artifical reading being so close to the dessicant. If you put one in there and one inside the AMS you will see very different readings.
The Poop is exactly why I didnt go with the AMS. I dont want to deal with that much poop. I just use my sunlu filament dryer 2.0 I love it. Great video!
There is a list on the internet that describes which manufacturers’ spools fit and which ones don’t fit in the Bambu Lab AMS which you may find helpful. I went the route of the rewinder path so I could use everyone’s spools. I’m glad you liked the video 😊
An issue with many LED upgrades is that they interfere with the lidar, which is possibly why Bambu have the lights so dark and have tinted glass panels anyway.
Yes that is a good point. That’s why I like my upgrade because I can use the remote to turn off the LEDs until after the printer has completed the LiDAR calibration. Also, I mainly use the texture plate, which isn’t compatible with the LiDAR anyway. But you do bring up a good point. Thanks for your comment.
Thanks for a great video! I printed the Spool Winder and love it. I did run into a couple of issues printing on my Bambu Labs X1 Carbon. The axles did not fit and needed to have the XY dimensions reduced to 94%. I also learned Gold Silk was not a good choice for axles though it worked fine for the lower body. They ended up breaking. The inserts I got were a little too big for the holes and caused some bulging. My last issue was the motor is not powerful enough when the take up spool gets loaded. I'll do some searching to see if there is smaller drive gear to provide more power.
The 200 RPM motor worked great. No slow down as the take up reel gained filament. I also modified some parts to better fit together and address a couple of issues. - Manual drive axle. Removed the insert hole by the handle. I had an axle snap under load. - Drivetrain. Modified the 128mm and 32mm axles for better fit with the gear and bearing - Sled. Created a bearing clip to hold the bearing in the holder. Also made a worm gear spacer to keep the worm gear in place. I had an issue with the worm gear disengaging from the drive gear. The 47mm axle was modified to remove the insert hole on the bottom and thickened slightly to better fit the bearing. I’ll post a remix to Diplomater’s site.
Lol, one step at a time. I recommend that you enjoy getting used to your X1 and then you can decide which upgrades you would like to implement. Let me know if you have any questions regarding the X1 or the upgrades in my video. Thank you for your comment!
Again a great video! So happy that I subscribed your channel. Not that I not already have printed ALL the tools you mention, as I found them very helpful. One thing I am really envy about is the motorized spool rewinder - as I am still with the mechanical one. I was not aware about the upgrades from Diplomator_209270 - so already for that your video was worth watching! Looking forward for you next video - especially because of the small hidden humor in it.

Thanks for your feedback! I have been really happy with the upgrades to the spool rewinder. If you go with the motor, the motor controller Amazon link has an electrical schematic that explains how to wire everything. I found that very helpful. Yes, my next video will be very different… we will see your and others reactions to see if viewers find it entertaining and informative. Will start filming next week. Regarding My Description, I promised to follow your advice😊. With that said, there is a lot of information that I provided so it’s still too cluttered, but this time the information is only related to this video. On future videos I won’t have so many links due to the subjects I will cover. Thanks again for taking the time to provide your detailed comments on my videos😊
Could I suggest that you use a compressor/limiter to your vocal audio, the start of your vocal address is a higher volume which booms, the compressor/limiter will give uniform levels and stop any booming of the levels.
So to clarify, does my volume change through the video causing yo to adjust your audio? If so, I wasn’t aware of this so I will have to determine how I can fix this. Thanks very much for taking the time to help me make better videos 😊
@@ristinnovations No I dont have to adjust my volume level,however, the boom on the vocal audio is noticeable, anyone that starts talking will initially start louder and then adjust their natural spoken volume, A limiter allows you to set the level so it is never exceeded, the quality of the audio track once limited/compressed is very noticeable, you can get free plugins that should work with whichever audio software you are using.
Nice video 🙂I was wondering about putting a couple of hinges on your build plate holder? Then you could fold it against the wall so it doesn't protrude into your workspace.
@@ristinnovations Sure 🙂 I noticed that your holder for the printer beds sticks out quite a long way. I thought that, maybe, if you attached a couple of hinges (one at the top, one at the bottom) where the holder connects to the cleat you could fold the holder against the wall horizontally. It would use up a bit of useable space on your cleat when folded but I guess you could offest that by hanging it at the end of your cleat and folding it away from the other tools placed next to it. If it still doesn't make sense, I can try to knock something together in Fusion but I really don't hink I can get to it for a week or so. Being Christmas and all that.
I did the light mod and used the same light kit. I noticed that if you select a brightness less than full that it will cause the camera picture to flicker. I just use the 100% setting, but if you want to use the others, then a capacitor between the + and - may eliminate this flicker. Not worth the trouble to me. Just wanted others to know about the flicker. BTW, that's not a White Balance issue.
I can't seem to find the file for the cereal box dry box spool holder that doesn't have the desiccant box attached? I printed steve's desiccant box and see a picture of the spool holder but no file that has the desiccant box attached to the spool holder?
I’m sorry for my delayed response. I have to double check, but I think I modified the stl file in my slicer by cutting off the attached desiccant tray. I hope this helps.
Thank you for the great advice, seriously well presented. I just picked up my X1C today. Going through the amazon list, is the "Vertical Heat Press Machine" absolutely necessary for the spool switcher/rewinder?
No, it’s not necessary, but you will need a solder iron to add the metal inserts. The press just makes it easier to put the inserts straight in the holes. Good luck with your X1C!
I really like its design since I usually rewind a lot of filament and I had to do it with a drill, one question: how much filament did the project take?
Hello Rist! I've printed many of these, and one aesthetic only upgrade I might mention is the fancy PEY/PEO sheets I've purchased from the Juupine Aliexpress store. I have one of each kind of their build plates and they all work great on my P1P! I also know in the X1 they might not function super well with the LIDAR, as even the bambu textured sheets can be an issue there, but as long as you've already calibrated the filament on a different build plate I wouldn't see any issues in using them
Cool video and upgrades. I preferred a dehydrator instead of the desiccant beads as sometimes the beads won't return to original dry state. So, it can become a consumable and they won't do a lot for drying out the filament just more of a humidity maintainer.
The glass top fits on top of the riser and the AMS sits on top of the glass. Are you asking if a mount exists if you don’t want to use the glass top? If so, I’m not aware of a mount.
This is the best video ever. I’ve watched it more than 10 times lol. I’m trying to figure out how to line up the round hygrometer in the middle of ams. The hygrometer has the flanges on the diagonal but the print expects them at the center top and center bottom. Did I order the wrong ones? Got them from link
Lol, if you watched my video 10 times you have just become my new best friend😊. I used the same link when I ordered the hygrometer that I posted so I’m sure you ordered the right one. Unless the desiccant holder design was changed since I printed it I’m not sure why it isn’t fitting. If you are interested, could you send me some photos of the problem at info@ristinnovations.com?
We figured it out everyone. Just be sure to download version one of the file on his link. I downloaded version 2 thinking it was a “better version” but it just fits a different hygrometer. Love it!
I had thought about that for the individual cleat, but I was thinking that someone would want the wall have a continuous strip of a French cleat. Your idea would work for sure. Thanks for the comment.
Hey, do you happen to have a BOM (Or at least the screws etc) necessary for the upgraded spool winder by Diplomator that you showcased? Going over the required items in the Printables for it is rough, and I don't want to have to spend on fasteners I won't use a lot of. Thanks in advance!
If you go to the description of the video, click on the speed controller link and that will take you to Amazon. Then scroll through the photos until you come to the schematic. Thanks for the question.
I have fitted LED lighting to all of my printers and on each one I have had to print diffusers as the light is too powerful for my cameras even when using just one small strip, The strong light washes out the colour of the filament when monitoring the print on Octoprint or Klipper
im getting me a p1s... def will use most of these upgrades LOL... also subscribed... stupid question but why dont just connect the led to the existing led so it auto turns on?
It’s a good question. I wanted to avoid directly connecting the LED add-on to Bambu’s power source because I didn’t know if it would affect the Bambu electronics. It turns out that the added LED would impact the LiDAR. The added LED can also affect the camera so I’m glad I use a separate power source which also allows me to turn on and off the added LED when ever I want. Thanks for the question and for subscribing😊
I have an affiliate link in the description of the video, but here is the link:amzn.to/45di66s for the LEDs. Of course, once you see a description of the LEDs from the link you could always search on Amazon by the LED name. The pricing should be the same. I hope this helps.
Bambu Lab doesn’t recommend cardboard spools. There is a spreadsheet on the internet that lists the manufacturers spools that don’t fit in the AMS. Thanks for the question.
Hello Rist! I'm new to 3D and I'm printing the COB LED strip light on a P1S. In Bambu Studio do you have to rotate the LED shields by 180 degrees out of plane so they print on the flat side instead of the lip?
Hi, yes you want to rotate the TPU LED shields 180 degrees so the “top” of the shield is on the surface of the build plate. Please let me know if I can be of further help. -Ken
You do bring up a good point. I couldn't find a max. temperature rating in the link I used for the LED lights I bought on Amazon. The only thing I remember from the original Printables article was that they recommended to use hot melt glue to attach the LED strips to the 3D printed parts because the self-adhesive didn't hold up to the higher temperatures within the 3D printer. I haven't had any issues with the LEDs I installed, but I'm not running the printer at 70 degrees C continuously. Please let me know if you find LEDs that are rated for 70 degrees C. Thanks for your question.
@@ristinnovations mine have fine so far, little blob of hot glue at each to be safe, adds about 3 degrees to my chamber over a few hours, useful far ASA actually
Yes, based on a few others feedback, on my last two videos I found a way to make the closed captions as optional. That’s my plan for all future videos. Thanks for your candid comment.
How did you actually get Awesome Filament Spool Rewinder to print on an X1C? People I have talk to are having a terrible time time printing this, esp. the gears which are giving non-manifold edges issues. Simplify and repair are not working on them ? What setting did you use to print these parts ?
I followed Miklos Kiszely’s recommendations on Printables. I’m not sure why I didn’t have any issues compared to you, but maybe if you contacted Miklos he could offer more specific advice sine he was the creator of the original files.
I used Miklos's Update 2, but I also reprinted several of the gears using Diplomator's stl files because they had improved the designs of many of the parts.@@brucewilfong538
Ihr Bambu's macht mir Angst, weil wir jetzt schon fast überall Mikroplastik in unseren Flüssen haben und ihr Euch keine Gedanken zur Entsorgung, der zum Teil hochgiftigen. Materialien macht...
NOT TO BUY It would be good that you comment that there is no technical service and that with a new printer I am unable to print with an open incident for 6 days and no one gets in touch and there is no other way to get in touch, do not answer in networks, in mails, in the support service .... when the service of other printers like Creality respond instantly. Very disappointed, I do not recommend at all to buy until they are ready.
What a great video. Calmly explaining the most useful Bambu lab 3D printable upgrades in a straightforward, clear, and concise manner, all while giving credit to everyone whose models you featured. And your wife on the intro was awesome! Thank you sir! You just earned yourself a subscriber!
Hi Ken. Thanks for the nod to my y-splitter! Your mod is a great solution, but I think I could have saved you that hard-earned penny if my installation instruction were more clear. :-) Since we can't post images or links in comments, I sent more details via email. Thanks for this roundup of upgrades. I appreciate all of the time and effort it takes to curate a list like this, test everything, and put out an excellent video!
Hi Ed, thanks very much for taking the time to send me your email. As you mentioned above, we both provided each other with more details in our emails, which is too hard to do in these comments. I am really enjoying using your splitter and thanks again for sharing your design on Printables! Also, thanks for your comment😊
Ricordiamo che nel mondo non puoi far volare liberamente un drone giocattolo su una piazza, figurati un'auto. Me la vedo la comodità di creare un piano di volo per andare al supermercato ed attendere il nullaosta della ENAC.
This was my attempt to provide cc, however I have since received feedback such as yours that people don’t want the cc showing up on the video so in my recent videos I don’t add the cc. Thanks for your feedback.
That respooler is an awful design. It breaks easily, and it’s nearly Impossible to build due to absurdly tight tolerances. Just print a simple dual-cone that adapts to a power drill and be done with it.
I can't quite understand you only have 7000 subscribers, your videos are amazingly good and you tell everyone the names of the people who made the 3d print Keep up the good work

So to clarify, does my volume change through the video causing yo to adjust your audio? If so, I wasn’t aware of this so I will have to determine how I can fix this. Thanks very much for taking the time to help me make better videos 😊
@@ristinnovations No I dont have to adjust my volume level,however, the boom on the vocal audio is noticeable, anyone that starts talking will initially start louder and then adjust their natural spoken volume, A limiter allows you to set the level so it is never exceeded, the quality of the audio track once limited/compressed is very noticeable, you can get free plugins that should work with whichever audio software you are using.
Thanks for your feedback. I will look into this.
Nice video 🙂I was wondering about putting a couple of hinges on your build plate holder? Then you could fold it against the wall so it doesn't protrude into your workspace.
Thanks for your idea, but I’m not exactly sure what you mean about the hinges. Can you provide some more details? Thanks
@@ristinnovations Sure 🙂 I noticed that your holder for the printer beds sticks out quite a long way. I thought that, maybe, if you attached a couple of hinges (one at the top, one at the bottom) where the holder connects to the cleat you could fold the holder against the wall horizontally. It would use up a bit of useable space on your cleat when folded but I guess you could offest that by hanging it at the end of your cleat and folding it away from the other tools placed next to it. If it still doesn't make sense, I can try to knock something together in Fusion but I really don't hink I can get to it for a week or so. Being Christmas and all that.
I did the light mod and used the same light kit. I noticed that if you select a brightness less than full that it will cause the camera picture to flicker. I just use the 100% setting, but if you want to use the others, then a capacitor between the + and - may eliminate this flicker. Not worth the trouble to me. Just wanted others to know about the flicker. BTW, that's not a White Balance issue.
Thanks for providing your recommendation and experience!
I can't seem to find the file for the cereal box dry box spool holder that doesn't have the desiccant box attached? I printed steve's desiccant box and see a picture of the spool holder but no file that has the desiccant box attached to the spool holder?
I’m sorry for my delayed response. I have to double check, but I think I modified the stl file in my slicer by cutting off the attached desiccant tray. I hope this helps.
Thank you for the great advice, seriously well presented. I just picked up my X1C today. Going through the amazon list, is the "Vertical Heat Press Machine" absolutely necessary for the spool switcher/rewinder?
No, it’s not necessary, but you will need a solder iron to add the metal inserts. The press just makes it easier to put the inserts straight in the holes. Good luck with your X1C!
I really like its design since I usually rewind a lot of filament and I had to do it with a drill, one question: how much filament did the project take?
I don’t remember exactly how much filament I used to make the filament rewinder. I think it was less than a kg.
Hello Rist! I've printed many of these, and one aesthetic only upgrade I might mention is the fancy PEY/PEO sheets I've purchased from the Juupine Aliexpress store. I have one of each kind of their build plates and they all work great on my P1P! I also know in the X1 they might not function super well with the LIDAR, as even the bambu textured sheets can be an issue there, but as long as you've already calibrated the filament on a different build plate I wouldn't see any issues in using them
Thanks for the feedback. I’ll need to try some of those 3rd party build plates.
100% agree I got all of them, they are game changers. They leave a really cool finish on your prints that can take things to another level.
Cool video and upgrades. I preferred a dehydrator instead of the desiccant beads as sometimes the beads won't return to original dry state. So, it can become a consumable and they won't do a lot for drying out the filament just more of a humidity maintainer.
Yes, I agree a dehydrator would be more effective. Thanks for your comment!
@@ristinnovations
I use a dehydrator to dry out the beads too...
need more cowbell
Is there an AMS mount compatible with this LED riser? I like the design more so than others I’ve seen
The glass top fits on top of the riser and the AMS sits on top of the glass. Are you asking if a mount exists if you don’t want to use the glass top? If so, I’m not aware of a mount.
This is the best video ever. I’ve watched it more than 10 times lol. I’m trying to figure out how to line up the round hygrometer in the middle of ams. The hygrometer has the flanges on the diagonal but the print expects them at the center top and center bottom. Did I order the wrong ones? Got them from link
Lol, if you watched my video 10 times you have just become my new best friend😊. I used the same link when I ordered the hygrometer that I posted so I’m sure you ordered the right one. Unless the desiccant holder design was changed since I printed it I’m not sure why it isn’t fitting. If you are interested, could you send me some photos of the problem at info@ristinnovations.com?
@@ristinnovations just sent it
We figured it out everyone. Just be sure to download version one of the file on his link. I downloaded version 2 thinking it was a “better version” but it just fits a different hygrometer. Love it!
I think I would just print the french cleats.
I had thought about that for the individual cleat, but I was thinking that someone would want the wall have a continuous strip of a French cleat. Your idea would work for sure. Thanks for the comment.
“…..can’t be injured by the plastic blades!”
Me: “HOLD MY BEER!”
Thanks for your video. When using the " PTFE Extruder Bracket" is it then still possible to close the lid on top of a X1C printer?
Yes, I have my glass top on my printer and it has been working great for several months. Thanks for your comment!
🤘🤘
Hey, do you happen to have a BOM (Or at least the screws etc) necessary for the upgraded spool winder by Diplomator that you showcased? Going over the required items in the Printables for it is rough, and I don't want to have to spend on fasteners I won't use a lot of. Thanks in advance!
I never put a list together, but I will try to provide you with my best estimate of the hardware by the end of this weekend.
Wow! Who knew that there could be so many audio levels in just one video?
I will try to learn how to standardize the volume of my videos. It’s all part of my learning curve.
where do i find a schematic to wire up the motor
If you go to the description of the video, click on the speed controller link and that will take you to Amazon. Then scroll through the photos until you come to the schematic. Thanks for the question.
I have fitted LED lighting to all of my printers and on each one I have had to print diffusers as the light is too powerful for my cameras even when using just one small strip, The strong light washes out the colour of the filament when monitoring the print on Octoprint or Klipper
That’s great to know. Thanks for sharing your experience.
No need to change reels. You can print a cover that goes over the edges of cardboard reels so they spin properly.
That does work for some cardboard spools, however some won’t allow you to close the AMS lid completely due to their size.
im getting me a p1s... def will use most of these upgrades LOL... also subscribed... stupid question but why dont just connect the led to the existing led so it auto turns on?
It’s a good question. I wanted to avoid directly connecting the LED add-on to Bambu’s power source because I didn’t know if it would affect the Bambu electronics. It turns out that the added LED would impact the LiDAR. The added LED can also affect the camera so I’m glad I use a separate power source which also allows me to turn on and off the added LED when ever I want. Thanks for the question and for subscribing😊
Where can i find those leds?
I have an affiliate link in the description of the video, but here is the link:amzn.to/45di66s for the LEDs. Of course, once you see a description of the LEDs from the link you could always search on Amazon by the LED name. The pricing should be the same. I hope this helps.
What spools don’t work in the AMS? I have used many different brands with out issue.
Bambu Lab doesn’t recommend cardboard spools. There is a spreadsheet on the internet that lists the manufacturers spools that don’t fit in the AMS. Thanks for the question.
@@ristinnovations OK, despite that fact I reiterate that I have not had any issues with any spools. Thanks for the video I enjoyed it.
Would the Bambu Lab Top Glass Riser LED w/Shield be needed if I am going to have the AMS Riser?
I’m not sure what you mean about the “AMS Riser”. Can you clarify?
is there some one who modifies the ams to be compatible with flexibles? Really need it to the next level
I’m not aware of any AMS upgrades that can handle TPU. I only print TPU using the external spool holder. Thanks for the question.
Hello Rist! I'm new to 3D and I'm printing the COB LED strip light on a P1S. In Bambu Studio do you have to rotate the LED shields by 180 degrees out of plane so they print on the flat side instead of the lip?
Hi, yes you want to rotate the TPU LED shields 180 degrees so the “top” of the shield is on the surface of the build plate. Please let me know if I can be of further help. -Ken
Are those light ok with heat? the ones ive found on ali are rated to 45c
You do bring up a good point. I couldn't find a max. temperature rating in the link I used for the LED lights I bought on Amazon. The only thing I remember from the original Printables article was that they recommended to use hot melt glue to attach the LED strips to the 3D printed parts because the self-adhesive didn't hold up to the higher temperatures within the 3D printer. I haven't had any issues with the LEDs I installed, but I'm not running the printer at 70 degrees C continuously. Please let me know if you find LEDs that are rated for 70 degrees C. Thanks for your question.
@@ristinnovations mine have fine so far, little blob of hot glue at each to be safe, adds about 3 degrees to my chamber over a few hours, useful far ASA actually
Did anyone have difficulty getting the Hydrometer to fit?
I can do without the mandatory closed captioning. If I need/want it I'll turn it on.
Yes, based on a few others feedback, on my last two videos I found a way to make the closed captions as optional. That’s my plan for all future videos. Thanks for your candid comment.

LOL, yes there are villains everywhere😄
How in the heck did you get the speed controller inside that box? I bought all of the parts from your list.
It was a tight fit. I had to rearrange the wires a couple of times before I could get everything to fit.
There's a better Y splitter available on Etsy.
How did you actually get Awesome Filament Spool Rewinder to print on an X1C? People I have talk to are having a terrible time time printing this, esp. the gears which are giving non-manifold edges issues. Simplify and repair are not working on them ? What setting did you use to print these parts ?
I followed Miklos Kiszely’s recommendations on Printables. I’m not sure why I didn’t have any issues compared to you, but maybe if you contacted Miklos he could offer more specific advice sine he was the creator of the original files.
@@ristinnovations Which one please, he lists several. Update 1 or Update 2 ?
I used Miklos's Update 2, but I also reprinted several of the gears using Diplomator's stl files because they had improved the designs of many of the parts.@@brucewilfong538

Ihr Bambu's macht mir Angst, weil wir jetzt schon fast überall Mikroplastik in unseren Flüssen haben und ihr Euch keine Gedanken zur Entsorgung, der zum Teil hochgiftigen. Materialien macht...
The best upgrade would be replacing it with a MK4!
Well, that’s one option, but that’s not for everyone.
NOT TO BUY It would be good that you comment that there is no technical service and that with a new printer I am unable to print with an open incident for 6 days and no one gets in touch and there is no other way to get in touch, do not answer in networks, in mails, in the support service .... when the service of other printers like Creality respond instantly. Very disappointed, I do not recommend at all to buy until they are ready.

Get to the point.... hit it....move on.
Patience is a virtue
What a great video. Calmly explaining the most useful Bambu lab 3D printable upgrades in a straightforward, clear, and concise manner, all while giving credit to everyone whose models you featured. And your wife on the intro was awesome! Thank you sir! You just earned yourself a subscriber!
Thank you very much for your encouragement and for subscribing to my channel😊
Hi Ken. Thanks for the nod to my y-splitter! Your mod is a great solution, but I think I could have saved you that hard-earned penny if my installation instruction were more clear. :-) Since we can't post images or links in comments, I sent more details via email. Thanks for this roundup of upgrades. I appreciate all of the time and effort it takes to curate a list like this, test everything, and put out an excellent video!
Hi Ed, thanks very much for taking the time to send me your email. As you mentioned above, we both provided each other with more details in our emails, which is too hard to do in these comments. I am really enjoying using your splitter and thanks again for sharing your design on Printables! Also, thanks for your comment😊
Ricordiamo che nel mondo non puoi far volare liberamente un drone giocattolo su una piazza, figurati un'auto. Me la vedo la comodità di creare un piano di volo per andare al supermercato ed attendere il nullaosta della ENAC.
Hi. Thanks a lot for the video!
You are very welcome. Thanks for your comment 😊
Thank you christopher walkens cousin👌
Lol, no one has called me that before. Thank for watching😊
Was about to same the same LOL, he also sounds kinda like him.
video broken , cc still on screen when de-selected
This was my attempt to provide cc, however I have since received feedback such as yours that people don’t want the cc showing up on the video so in my recent videos I don’t add the cc. Thanks for your feedback.
That respooler is an awful design. It breaks easily, and it’s nearly Impossible to build due to absurdly tight tolerances. Just print a simple dual-cone that adapts to a power drill and be done with it.
