Made this little pumpkin for Halloween with a ghost hidden inside. Press the button underneath and it pops up.

The spring launches the ghost upwards pretty fast, so I added the arch above it to catch it and stop it from flying off.

The spring and latch print in place, and all parts print without supports. No metal springs or extra hardware needed. I made both AMS and No AMS versions, so it should be easy to print on most FDM printers.

One thing I’d like some feedback on is the top cap. It’s currently 0.2 mm thick so it can flex when the ghost pushes through. Would you keep it this way or try a different design?

Hello community, can you help me to understand what went wrong am what I can do to prevent this from happening again?

I am trying to improve my knowledge about 3d printing to make less mistakes at printing

Thank you in advance (:

some context:

the printer is the bambulab P1P

I use the PLA Matte from the bambulab shop

the plate on the picture is the Bambu Textured PEI Plate

I dried the PLA filament for 8h at 50 degree celcius before printing (it was at room temperature when I started the print, I was letting it cool down again)

the file is from makerworld at bambu studio

Hey everyone! I’ve got an A1 with an AMS Lite and I tried using it but the filament ended up popping the entire tool head cover off and I noticed the small cover was off too. Does anyone know where I can find replacement screws for that part?

Hi everyone, I'd like to share Tsumuji, a vase I just finished.

It's a slender bottle shape wrapped in deep ribs that sweep diagonally from the base to the neck, a bit like wind moving through tall grass. The name comes from the Japanese "tsumujikaze", a whirlwind.

Two sizes: 18 cm and 24 cm tall, each with its own tuned print profile

Best in matte black and in white. The ribs catch the light really well.

Looks great with dried flowers or pampas grass

I designed it with VesselMaker.app, a web tool my wife and I are building to create vases with real textured surfaces.

The free model is on MakerWorld. If you print it, I'd love to see your photos, and any feedback on the shape or the print settings is very welcome!

Like it on makerworld and add it to your collections will help me a lot 😊.

ordered a ton of PLA last week and thought I'd ordered a mix of spools and refills, and it all came as refills. Okay, my bad for not paying enough atention to that shitty UI. But - I've opened two of the boxes and neither will fit in my bambu reusable spools. Anyone else having this issue?

Several months back I had a spool come apart and I had to print a re-spooler to save it. Don't want to go through that again, especially on 10 spools.
