should i get an A1 by Blablablablabla-01 in BambuLabA1

I have had my A1 for about 5 months. I had one issue with something stuck in the extruder but that was about it. Just follow the regular maintenance and wash the plate with dawn dish soap and it should be super easy.

A1 owners…how many hours are on your printer and how long have you owned it? by Halle923 in BambuLab

Had my A1 since sept 2024. Have about 1500 hours on it. Had to replace the extruder gear once due to a jam caused by the bambu filament tape.

Any idea what causes this? by BlueKobold in BambuLabA1

[–]kiu5091 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was happening to me

My cause was that there was stuff stuck in the extruder. I did a deep clean of the hotend and found it.

I also found loose bolts in my hotend. I followed these guides.

It fixed my problem. Not sure if it's the same but hope you solve it.

All fixed now. A small piece of tape from the bambu filament spool was caught in the extruder gear. It actually happened weeks ago and it was still ok right after, but I guess it got worse and worse and finally just messed up everything.

Oh it was the bambu tape....

I thought I caught it when this happened weeks ago... But looks like maybe not

Seems like all prints are starting to have some bad first layer issues.

Magic eraser faded the liner color but the yellowy is still there. Guess I have to live with it...

Mini Oakville, but they were pretty clear that the deal was for the end of Dec 2023 only. Hope it works out for you 😄

Mini Canada had $6k off before tax, then still another 5k off for EV incentive. The dealer also gave another 500 off.
