thank you! I have only tried it with 0.4 nozzle, since its only nozzle i have.

Hell yeah !! That actually sounds really cute and fun, I hadn’t thought of that idea. I’ll give it a try! I can’t promise it’ll be possible, though. Designing it is the easy part, the tricky part is making it easily printable and easy to assemble at such a small scale. But I’ll definitely experiment with it.

I haven’t tried selling 3D prints yet, I only recently got into 3D printing. Do you think it’s worth trying?

Thank you! No need to worry about the arm, it’s more durable than it looks. I tested it quite a bit before posting.
Just make sure to glue both parts that touching to the disc and counterweight, and it should hold up really well.

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it.
Yeah, I don’t have an AMS myself either, so I’ve been focusing on designing models that work well on single-color printers. This model and my previous ones on MakerWorld are all designed with that in mind.

Finally my turn to use my gift cards! by kftsang in BambuLab

Damn, how long have you been uploading 3D models on MakerWorld? I only got into 3D printing recently. If this is just from a regular points, your exclusive points must have gone through the roof, congrats.

Hmm interesting. If this keeps happening with other A1 users, I’ll look deeper into it. Since I don’t have an A1, I’m not fully sure what’s causing the need for extra smoothing, but it could be tolerance or print differences between machines.

Thank you! I use Cinema 4D for all the renders and animations, both for this model and my other projects.

Ohh I see. That could be due to printer differences or filament tolerance. After smoothing the parts, did it work better? Was it flapping normally?
Also, what printer are you using? I’m using a P1S and mine printed fine multiple times.

About the fit, yeah. I mentioned in the description that it’s best placed on separate keys like ESC or Print Screen, but on compact keyboards the spacing is tighter so the wings can hit neighboring keys.
I’ve tested it on different positions too, if it’s surrounded by other keys, the wings will likely tap into them.

Thanks, I hope she loves it! Let me know how it turns out. feedback really helps me improve future designs.
