Dude I love these tutorials just keep going through each tab and how to use it
Awesome. That’s the plan!!
Thanks for the tutorials. I also watched the first one of "Bambu slicer tutorials". They are good, but I do find that they could be about 50% shorter without any lost of content. I'm watching them at 1.5x (even if english is not my first language), and it's better, but still. Anyway, thanks for having done that.
My P1S comes today and these are really helping me get up to speed as I am transitioning from an ender-3 and Cura to Bambu Studio. Thank you! Please keep 'em coming...
That’s awesome! I was in your shoes with the same stuff and it’s a different world hope these keep helping.
How have things been. I'm one day in haha
@@ShyneflowLC fantastic. This machine JUST WORKS! Learned a lot!
@TotallyJuvenile hell yeah that's great man!!
You do a great job teaching. good detail, good visuals, well paced. Thanks for putting these together - and doing all the print permutations to show from slicer design to product.
THANK YOU, I'm 68 years old, I wanted something new in my life so I decided to learn 3D printing, I don't even get my A1 until next week, I have learned so much and you have taken the fear i had of wasting my money getting into this. I think your speed at which you teach is PERECT please don't speed it up as suggest, your videos are for someone who has never even seen a 3D printer and is is going to jump in, there are other videos for people with some knowledge or experience, your pace and detail to information is EXCLLENT I look forward to each one and learning, my only issues is I'm not getting anything else done in my life because I just keep learn from you, dogs are begging to be fed...lol
I'm so green even at making this comment I don't understand how I donate to you, so I can get all the videos you offer, can you do a video on how you donate...lol seriously
I can wait for my printer next week I'll have all your classes done and open that box with so much confidence, again thank you for taking time out of your life and educating others.
Thank you for your comment. I’m truly glad to hear Ive taken the fear away from your new hobby. I do have a patreon if you wanted to join that gives you access to my full discord channels were we chat and answer questions for people of all skill/knowledge levels. The link is in the description if you’re interested.
Best of luck
Chris!
For a complete novice this has been brilliant. It has really helped me use my new X1 carbon. Many thanks
Man, you the real MVP! Learning a lot with my X1C here that my wife (Santa) got me for Christmas!
Im new to Bambu studio adn 3d Printing i gotta say your teaching is so good thank you.
You make very detailed and amazing tutorials, I always learn something new watching them
I’m really glad to hear I do a ton of research making sure I cover everything important
Thank you so much for these videos!!! They are so easy to understand and showing the physical products and the differences has been the best way for me to learn. Again, thank you so very much. I am brand new to 3D printing and with your tutorials, my confidence in using this Bambu is growing fast.
Thanks for the video, really helpful for those of us who are starting in this 3D printing world.....The level of details in each video is perfect ! Keep 'em coming !
A cracking video that I stumbled upon. I will be looking for more videos from this guy. Clear explanations and prints to show the different settings.
Just started 3d printing these help alot keep em coming ty
Thank you so much for taking your time to make this series. I just started printing on my new p1p and am loving your videos. Thank you!
Loving this series on Bambu Studio. I am converting over from years of using Cura, but even with that experience, you are showing me things I didn't really understand to start with. Great Job!
New to Bambu and love your detailed tutorials, please keep them coming
Loving the videos. My x1c is being delivered today. Been binging this series. Thanks
Just got my printer last Friday and you help so much! thank you!
Glad I could help!
LOVE these series of videos about Bambu Studio, thanks so much. As an idea for future videos, I would love to understand everything about filaments: how to calibrate them if they're not from bambu, possible to add bambu tags to your filaments, how to correctly sync from Bambu Studio from and to the AMS, etc!
Thanks. The next video is all about ams and coloring prints I’ll be talking about some of the things you mentioned
bro! thank you for a lovely tutorial, went through the beginner one and now thism goign to go through the others. coming from creality printing to bambu seems like a choice i shouldve made a while ago. loved the variable layer height section of this video and cant wait to test it out.. thank you - great tutorial!
Hi, Thank you for these great videos. I have just ordered myself a P1S and hoping I have done the right thing. I am converting over from resin printing (smelly, toxic, messy housekeeping but good prints if you get the settings right!). I am trying to get my head around the Bambu slicer as it is soooo completely different to the slicer I have for my resin printer. It has so many more features and options. Your tutorials are going to help a lot and I am looking forward to the journey.
Awesome beginner video. Your videos never disappoints.
Thanks so much for your excellently explained tutorials, as I am a total newby. Subscribed!
I'm really learning alot from your videos. It's been super helpful
Your videos are awesome. I am learning so much! Thank you for putting this series together.
This is high quality class. Thank you taking your time making this.
Wow thanks a lot. Took some work but worth helping people to make sweet 3D prints!
@@ItsMeaDMaDe Just ordered a Bambu Lab X1 Carbon. I know nothing about 3d printers. You are now my part time teacher for the next year. Keep up the good work.
@frederickjuneau7874 that’s awesome that’s a great printer you’ll love it.
Well done! As a noob to the bambu slicer this is very helpful, keep up the great work !!!
Great explanation! I print mostly functional parts and am struggling with strength. Especially with longer rods with pilot drill holes already in them.
I want to make all of my prints as strong as possible so I can use them for a while. I primarily use PETG. Thank you!
keep them coming on studio i have learn so much from you , ty!
Great coverage on the variable layers. Came across a Y-splitter on printables that talked about needing to adjust the variable layer and had no idea what to do, now I know!
These bambu tutorials are fantastic! Thanks for making them. Just joined your Patreon.
Awesome! Thanks so much for joining. I hope you like the rest of the series!
Very helpful videos. Been printing on the x1 carbon for 340 hours, according to the user interface and have always use .2 layer height. I have been very happy with the quality, but often times speed for a proof of concept would be nice, now i know how to do that. I might add, for those considering buying a x1, i have only had one jam and that was at about 320 hours. I usually use pla, and recently petg, most of the time hatchbox filament. This is my 3rd printer, and the first two jammed a lot to the point i almost gave up on printing.
Awesome content. Thank you! I would love for you to do a video on Max Volumetric Speed and Layer Time.
Is there a way to hit a button and have the printer print slower but better looking prints? Or do I have to figure out how to change all the slicer settings which doesn't seem too simple to get right?
Great info! I loved learning that it's possible to use adaptive layers on just the troublesome "plateau" areas 🎉
Yes! The adaptive layer feature is fantastic
I immediately went home and started working on adaptive layers for models with "plateau areas".
@ItsMeaDMaDe Can I leave an entire model alone and only adapt one area (like the top 5 layers)?
@SaiLentKnight that’s awesome. Yeah you absolutely can that’s the beauty of adaptive layers.
@@ItsMeaDMaDe I thought you had to click adapt then move the 99% of the areas back to your starting layer height. 🫣
Great Video... Looking foreward to the nest session...
Thanks! I’ll be releasing the next one next week.
Super helpfull tutorial series, recently switch to a Bambu and some of the software settings in the Studio slicer I wasn't sure what they where :).
That’s great glad it helped. There are quite a few settings that are renamed as compared to other slicers out there. Threw me off in the beginning. But it’s a good slicer I like it a lot.
7:40 you can just use the Archimedean chords shell infill pattern also , that would probably hide the platoing on such round shaped model imho
About the first layer - I paint pictures on models using the first layer with 0.08 / 0.12 detail gets a great pei textured finish on that , but it’s also important to use lower bed temperatures with a nice brim, if the temperature is too hot the plastic will keep on being beyond glass and the colors will smear and the first level details won’t be preserved. So this is also an interesting topic about balance there. It’s also a difficult task in regards to the nozzle flow rate and the texture of the plate can even affect the lines because at 0.08 the default textured plate already is a little too much of a texture for the line continuously when printing walls for example, the te texture of pei may disrupt such thin and delicate lines of 0.08 mm on the very first layer for example, so that it can be fixed later with the infill, hardcore Hilbert curve on first layer with 0.08 layer height and line thickness also btw - hardcore 😎
Thanks that was interesting. Amazing how much control and precision we can get with things like this.
Thanks much your videos are very helpful! How about a video on how to make your prints look great when using transparent filaments.
Do you have a video on bottom layer lines that are built on supports? To eliminate that lower rash look.
Very informative man thanks a lot.
Your very welcome
4:23 am, came across your videos great info but as soon as you said you use dark mode only had to sub. DAARK MODE ON EVERYTHING
great tutorial, thank you. would be curious about your take on the new Polymax Polymaker CosPLA filament and its best settings for the x1 Carbon.
I would love to see a video on the harder filaments like abs, ptg ect working on these printers 🖨️
Great 👍 video with a lot of information
Great suggestion! I’ll add it to the long list of vids I gotta make 😅
Great video Chris ! Really educational ! One thing bothers me ...benchee , on finest setting on newest bambu printer is not much better from the one I printed on my flsun sr cheap second hand printer...
I know infill affects the strength of a part, but does layer height also affect it? If so, in what way? Do beefy layers make it stronger? Are layers a "point of failure," so having more of them would increase the opportunities for failure?
you can go lower than the 0.08 .by changing the layer height limits in extruder settings
i use min 0.01 and max 0.32 witch lets you near resin quality but takes ages .prints nice at 0.32
better than 0.28mm that fast printing with a 0.4 nozzle
This video really helped out. In which video do you talk about the strength settings?
Love your videos BUT Can you tell me which video to watch so i can start from the First CURA 5 Video
Surely there must be a list from the start
Bought a thirs hand Ender 3 abd i was struggling so also got a AnyCube Kona
THANKS
I’d just go to my playlists and start the Cura at the first one they are ordered there. Best of luck.
Excellent thank you.
Do an in-depth video on ironing!
I’ll look into doing a video for that.
Again, very helpful. Please keep these coming, they are fantastic. I am struggling with the AMS on my X1C. I ask it to use the 4th filament but it goes back and uses the first filament. Any thoughts? Thank you.
That’s odd. First make sure your firmware is updated. Maybe a weird bug. Then I would make sure your filament are synced on your slicer I did a video on the ams showing how to do it and making sure you have the right colors selected.
Awesome video. Subscribed. Best videos and great job zooming in w/camera usage etc.
One question. I have P1S. My kids have a business printing flat ornaments and magnets for companies. However, we’re having a LOT of issues with top layers. We do 8-10 small prints per sheet, and half have the annoying lines on top. We like the shine, and have PLA glossy filament…lower fan, 240deg, and 50 outer, 30 top speed for slow shiny print and slower layers for perfection.
Shine is great, but super annoying as we throw away 50% of our prints. Do you have advice, or another video to address these issues?
Thanks!
Just got my x1 carbon setup yesterday. Its been printing nonstop and I freaking love it. Only thing im having trouble with is adding non-BL filament profiles. I can add them but when i change the bed type or temps and calibrations it doesn’t save it to that profile. Its the most up to date version. Im sure its user error but if u ever need content ideas we sure would appreciate it.
Hrm… that’s interesting I’ve never had that issue. I’ll look into that see if I can figure out the possible issue.
It's saves as a copy when you make a change to the original.
Thanks for the videos. I'm new to 3D printing and I've been trying to do my homework.
So let's say I'm trying to produce a part and I really need the quality to be good even on the bottom first layer. You suggest not changing the layer height, so what can I do? Thanks!
Could you please do a video on best print setting for good strength and smooth surface? Im mostly printing parts for robotics and would love to have some tips on settings for that!
chris could you do a video on sizing a model figure like on a doll to that 5 stl files and you want make each bigger but in proportion? ty 👍🏻
I'm looking into 3D printing and watch your channel alot for painting tips etc. I've got my eye on the Bambu P1P.... I want to print a mixture of props, statues, wearable helmets, miniature busts etc... But I want smooth finishes. Am I better looking into resin? Resin always looks brittle to me? Or am I better mastering smoothing filament lines techniques as you've shown in other videos?
This is an age old question fdm or resin for cosplay a lot of people do fdm due to the fact it’s a lot more durable since there is movement. If you go resin your going to have to buy a big resin printer not a lot can print a full helmet. The cost when it comes to resin is a whole lot higher than FDM so if you’ve got the money to burn, you could go that route. I personally would go with FDM there’s more processing work to be able to get rid of the layer lines but it’s completely possible. I would suggest checking out a channel called Darkwing Dad he gives great tutorials on processing your prints for Cosplay and how to get rid of layer lines
What about the seam positions? Do u have a video explaining those?
I'm wondering how to use multiple build plates and how you print from them, ie... can you send them all at once?
I apologize for not seeing all your posts, how does B.S. use different support material. Also how to use the same material when it runs out.
Thank you!
I’d like to see more on the cut feature and painting
Awesome! I’m about finished with the next vid an it’s all about AMS and painting multi-color prints. I’ll also look into the cut feature more. Thanks for the suggestion
Printing with supports is my next question. I'll look what you have. BUt so far every print we've done with supports.... the supports are so strong that it's hard to get them off. We've even broken the prints trying to get the supports off. Can you change settings on support?
Thank you. Brilliant
Great job
I'm still going through your guides but I was wondering if there is a way to change the enter diameter of a item without changing any of the other measurements, i.e. making a cylinder wall thinner or thicker. I a newbie with the Bambu printer, only two weeks old but haven't had time to tinker.
Would love to have a video on how to use the ams, how syncing it works, setting colors, how the filament selection works, why is there a giant box asking what you have. How to update a saved plate to what the ams currently has vs something pre-saved etc. I have used nothing but bambu pla with the ams but syncing isn't working, says I have nothing compatible... just confusing all around.
I’ll be coming all that in the next video next week.
I see printing lines on your finger too =)
How about numbering and ordering your videos so we know which came first and last!!
What about multi colour prints. If we use two-three colours. Example benchy that has white (bottom) red (middle) white(top) colour layer. How can we even the thickness / smooth the transition between colours. So it does not look like bad print colour change (print look good until top layer starts printing).
With the variable layer height, are you able to save those settings for that model? I'm thinking if you had a model that you sold and had to be able to reproduce.
I'm coming from Cura and over to Bambu Slicer for the Bambu A1. I am having a hard time trying to figure out the best ironing settings for Bambu Slicer. I tried to mirror what I have in Cura, but I'm getting striations in certain parts of the print. Do you have settings that you can share for ironing? Thanks!
Very informative information as always. Thank you. One question. The benchys you printed shows a glossy hull fron the center down and a matte hull from the center up. Did you do that or the machine? Looks like I'll have to dump my Ender 3/v2s and get a newer BamBoo Labs printer!! LOL!! Thank you for your informative videos .
So it’s interesting you bring that up. Its something I’m going to discuss at a later date. Essentially the printer/slicer does variable speed on some wall angles so it basically moved slower on the angle then when it changed it speed up. That’s how they print so fast.
@@ItsMeaDMaDe Thank you for your explaination, I should wait for newr videos! LOL!!
@@andyb7754 ha ha. The next one is multicolor printing and painting in Bambu studio.
I don't look at it as adding print time. Quite the opposite - it reduces print time.
That's because I look at it less as adding detail to a .20 print, and more as removing detail from a .08 print. It's a compromise between the two - letting you get the details of a .08 where they're important, but with a much faster print time than doing the entire piece at .08.
Thanks for this
Is it possible to attach a ring to an object to hang it for example. I figured how to punch a hole and made a cylinder with a hole that looks like a ring, but could never attach it to the object itself like assembling them together.
I am a bit confused. It said Bambu Studio 101, but in the end you are saying you put future clips under "Cura". I am totally green to this. Started yesterday 😊. But isn't Cura a totaly different software package as Bambu Studio?
I tried out adaptive layers for a helmet print with auto supports from build plate only. They fused to the print completely. Does adaptive layers not work with tree supports?
I need to know how to change the infill pattern
How about tutorial for all the options of sending a print to printer. Theres a send all, or print all. We can slice all plates or one plate. tutorial on this would be cool.
Super great topic! I will add it to the list.
I am also struggling to understand the infill setting. Cura had infill setting and you could reduce them for speed. Bambu doenst seem to like this. infill versus sparse infill...
@robp790 sparse infill and infill are one in the same. They just call it different in this program.
is it a good idea for making the first layer thicker than 0.2 let us say0.3 or 0.4
Thank for the very good videos! it’s not the printer I’m worried about it’s the slicer program that l freaks me out. Seriously considering the P1s 😊as my first printer.
Hey Chris, thank you so much for making this video. I wish I would’ve seen this before all of the prints that I already made. I do have a question though with all of the settings, is there a difference if you change the nozzles from the original nozzle to something different
Sorry man. Still working on the videos on this slicer. When it comes to nozzle size I do believe once you change it out and in the settings of Bambu studio the setting will auto adjust. I’ll verify that and let you know if I’m right. (I’m pretty sure I am 😏)
@@ItsMeaDMaDe thanks Chris I appreciate it. I’m actually using your Settings right now.
I’m new at 3 D printing and need some help. I have the Bambu p1s and when I go into maker lab and find a print. Some of them also print a box along side my object as it’s printing . Is this something I need ,or can I delete it?
How to adjust cooling for overhangs.
Hello friend! I commented in your previous videos for beginners, thanks for that! I'm having an issue with prints such as the pokemon Aspeon, where top part of the ears will have concentric ripples, and I can't get rid of them (I've tried ironing, having different top fillings, etc). Is this because I'm using a .4 mm nozzle and would need a .2 mm now? Any setting I could tune? Thank you!
You might want to slow down on your outer layer. Hard to tell without seeing what it’s doing. But slowing down might help
Dumb question…how can I become a patreon
Thanks!
This is really great stuff! Your explanations are clear and to the point. I am somewhat struggling with vase mode - trying to play with settings to increase the strength of the prints - if at all possible. Is switching to a larger nozzle the only way to go? - oh and I am using a P1S
Change the line width to .63 its under the quality tab. You can probably go higher but start there.
Hi and thank you for great tutorials, i just recently started using Bambu Studios and i bought and imported a stl file of a dragon but when i preview it then there is an error message saying "non manifold edges" When i click repair it just keeps going for ages and really just stops. Is this a bad file or is it possible to alter it in Bambu studio?
Love your videos! The mustache? Not so much. 🤣 I'm new to printing and your videos have been my primary source of enlightenment. Do you have a link to the duckling model? I couldn't find it anywhere and want to follow along. Thanks!
Hello! Please tell me, is it possible to print 2 parts one at a time on Bambu Lab?
You can print as many things as you want that will fit on the bed.
You have misunderstood me. You are placing two parts. But one part should be printed in one color, and the second in another color. At the same time, they should not be printed simultaneously, but sequentially/in order.@@ItsMeaDMaDe
Yes you can. It just leaves a big area around the part to allow for the head clearance. It's called print by layer or by part
Greetings. Just installed my Revo Panda hotend. Trying to find out how to set the nozzle diameter to 0.25. That’s the diameter of the small,Revo nozzle. I see the presets for Bambu 0.2, just can’t figure out how to change it to 0.25. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Tried everything cant get my model to colour (ie Green Grey and Orange Havr tghe side bar but its blue
My Version number is1.9.5.51 Great Video
I’m having an issue can you help me with. I’m trying to print a 2.0inch round by 2.0inch tall diameter in PLA, but my part is coming out 1.990 and the other side is 2.005. How can i get this dimensions closer and round. I tried the XY compensation but no luck
Where can I get the duckling? I can't find it.
Okay I have seen so much stringing in many teaching models. Simply how do you eliminate stringing for good please.
Where did you find the file for the Duck?
How i can show you a big problem I'm having?
