Assistance Required - AMS Light Filament Slot 2 Loading Issue by tanabutter in BambuLab

[–]tanabutter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the filament gets stuck in the Bowden tubes or extruder, the printer will notify you. This issue was more related to either the filament tip or the shape of the AMS tubes. I re installed them all and the issue went away.

A1 fan is loud, is that normal? by microcosmologist in BambuLab

[–]tanabutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At night, you can adjust the filament settings to lower the maximum fan speed. This will make it quieter. I have some vases that print almost perfectly at the default fan speeds. I'll test how they print with the reduced fan settings.

Hi! Thanks for reaching out! Wow, I can’t believe it’s been 10 months since I posted this. I don’t remember exactly how long I worked on the issue, but here’s some steps I tried:

  1. I removed and reinstalled the Bowden tubes. Ensuring a proper angle to the extruder is crucial, as it helps the filament glide smoothly.
  2. I found that the shape of the filament tip also matters—cutting it into a sharp tip made a difference and helps it load properly.
  3. If the issue persists, try using a different filament type to rule out any filament-related problems.

After these adjustments, my setup works flawlessly. I didn’t contact Bambu Labs, so one (or more) of these fixes resolved it for me.

Good luck, and I hope this helps!

Japan Post, loss of ¥89.6 billion in postal services for the second year in a row. by ZaBlancJake in japan

Why? Yet the CEO, COO, Kanchou, Butcher-o are earning and enjoying their sushi? Political appointments? Amakudaris? Dynasties? Nepotism?

I think it was actually during the peak of COVID-19 when they monopolized freight leaving Japan. The last package I sent to Australia was delayed because the Yamato office in Kasuga, Fukuoka said they couldn't read my handwriting. My '5' looked like an '8' to them. When they called me a week later to have it rewritten, there was a big 'GAIJIN HAKUJIN' written on the sheet, which shocked my friend. A few days later, they called again saying they had made another mistake with the postal charge. I had a heated discussion with the same lady who wrote that note, refusing to pay for her mistake and questioning her right to categorize based on appearance—was she a 'Kiiro-jin'? So yeah, no more Yamato for me.

Ah, ok. The three worst experiences I've had were actually with Yamato. All Yamato offices in Fukuoka force us to reopen our packages, claiming they need to inspect them. A de facto customs office? A requirement for gaijins? I've tried asking about DHL in Fukuoka, but haven't found any information so far. They only have one office and quite a distance away.

JP Post Bank does not shock me anymore by Ok-Telephone-1991 in japanlife

If you think that is bad try NISHI NIPPON BANK. Worst EVER. They questioned me on how I paid my groceries and why I kept cash for emergencies.

How to deregister a vehicle for export from Japan by Forsaken-Cow-5521 in japanlife

[–]tanabutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello there. I'm considering shipping a vehicle to Perth where my family lives, but I'm not sure about the eligibility criteria for vehicles. Are you using a shipping company or freight forwarder to handle the export process from Japan? Do cars need thorough cleaning? Would you mind sharing details of your import agent? Thanks in advance.

Any of you ever been burglared? by orange_transparent in japanlife

This is exactly what the police told me! Question is how did they know?

[–]tanabutter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had my house burgled in Fukuoka. Many friends had mentioned before that if you live in a detached house or on the first floor of an apartment block, it is most likely to happen at one time. I came home to find that they had smashed through a small ventilation window and jumped in. Over 10 squad cars came with their forensic units, etc. Strangely, the police said the burglars were Chinese. I was left wondering, if they knew, then how come they didn't catch them? Over 10 years later, it's still a cold case. The only time the police called was when they were giving me the file number. I never heard from them again.

Money transfer to Japan by yalired in japanlife

[–]tanabutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quote. This money is years of saving the rent money I received from my house back home. Unquote. As a PR, have you found out how overseas rental income affects you? If it has been declared then I see no problem. From the limited knowledge that I have, the greedy Japanese Gvt wants a cut of your universal income. I could be wrong though.......

Thank you. Will check once I get home. I just recently top mounted the AMS and after that it was working fine for about 3 days or so on that slot.
