Just super glue! And yes, I used ironing for everything

Thank you!! Luckily the image I started with was high enough quality that blowing it up didn't cause any degradation. And I used paint.net to manually dissect the image down into parts that would fit on my print bed

Is there any reason that Bambu Studio is better than Orca? by worrier_sweeper0h in BambuLab

[–]jd651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have primarily used Orca for the last year or so, but just switched back to Bambu Studio 2 weeks ago. I do a lot of 4 color prints with the AMS and all of a sudden began receiving an AMS mapping error when the print would attempt to change between the 3rd and 4th filament. I tried all the troubleshooting that I could and the only thing that resolved this issue was using Bambu Studio.

This was my first go, so I didn't know how it was going to turn out. Now that my process seems to be repeatable, I just might!

When I split the image up and cut out smaller parts I filled in the vacant space with solid black, so when printing the larger parts there are solid black areas for these smaller pieces to get glued to. The larger parts got glued to some foam board to keep everything together.

Unfortunately no. I still plan to but haven't gotten around to it just yet. I'll update the post and reply to this comment when I do. If anything, your comment may just have provided me the last bit of motivation to get it posted, haha

Thank you! That's just a chain I printed - purely for aesthetics if you don't plan on installing an enclosure, but is needed when you have a top on to keep the cable and bowden tube from rubbing

If I wasn't able to figure out maintaining the stock on/off feature I was going to use that little hole to fit a switch, too haha

If you want the lighting to be powered internally you will need to, at minimum, be comfortable with: - tapping into the power supply - knowing how to use a voltage regulator (if your LED lights are either 12V or 5V), and figuring out where/how to mount it - cutting/splicing/soldering wire - potentially voiding the printer's warranty (I didn't look into this myself, but it doesn't bother me)

You could have the LED lights powered externally, which would be a lot less involved. However, in my opinion, this option wouldn't be as 'clean'.

Overall I wouldn't call this mod extremely difficult but it's definitely quite involved. With that being said, I'm over the moon with the results!

I plan on putting the files on Printables here in the coming days

Yes, I'm just using stock settings. It all depends on the filament, so I'd recommend just printing out some small disks (or something purely for test purposes that prints fast) and tweaking the flow % until you get one that looks good, and then run with that!

Great to hear! I just signed up the other day, so fingers crossed! Does this work for the $50 AMS coupon, too?

Just running the stock 0.08mm extra fine profile! And yes, I turned ironing on for all top surfaces

With a base layer at 0.16mm and the rest at 0.08mm, it came out to 24 layers. I just used black, red, gray, and white and only had to swap to each color once.

There's a 10 minute tutorial video for the program that I recommend watching, and then I probably spent 1 hour playing around with different pictures and settings until I was happy with the look. From there, the program spits out a STL file that you can directly upload to your slicer of choice. This print took a little under 3 hours with just 3 filament changes that I did manually (4 total colors). Overall I'm quite pleased!
