Budget 3D printers used to fight over speed, auto-leveling, and how little patience they could demand from a new owner. Those things still matter, but they’re no longer enough to make a printer feel ...

[Andre Me] has long-standing interest in automating 3D print jobs, and his latest project is automating build plate changes on the Bambu A1 Mini. Here’s how it works: each build plate gets a sort of ...

REVIEW – I have been happily printing with my Bambu Labs P1S FDM printer. It’s alot more reliable and consistent than my old Anycubic 4Max Pro 2.0. With things are printing so well, I’m more ...
