Rarely, do I make any comments on people's videos. I will say, the tips you pointed out were really fantastic.
1) AMS Disconnector
2) Y Splitter;
3) Z-Axis covers;
4) Feeder Improvement; and lastly
5) Disconnect tool for Hot end removal.
Appreciate the time you put into making this video and clearly explaining the reasons.

By far the most useful mods for Bambu printers that I've seen. So many of the others aren't specific to Bambu or personally I have not found a use for. Almost all of these will help improve my printing experience.

I think people add the logo for one of a few reasons:
1) They really enjoy the bambu brand and want to celebrate / be part of it
2) It enhances the idea of manufacturing "real" parts yourself. By putting branding on it, its more like a professional product
3) Similar to 2, it makes it seem like the parts are part of the official product and people want to maintain the aesthetic

Find some clear plastic cereal containers for filament storage and place some desiccant inside with the spool. This works great for 1kg spools and I’m sure there are some containers out there that would fit 5kg spools as well

[LukisD]

hey man thanks for the timelapse mod, I definitely have to try that out!
For the splitter, I highly recommend the one from Bambulab. Also consider to upgrade the nozzle wiper if you print something like PETG since it has a tendency to not get wiped properly. (although i also get this problem with PLA sometimes). The nozzle wiper from Svenkrause works amazingly well, and you’re in Germany so you can just easily buy it from them👍🏼

me personally them printing the logo on stuff is a OCD thing and makes it look sharp

[CannonQuacks]

First and amazing vid keep up the good work 🔥

[AgentHurt]

can’t wait to print a few of these ideas. found the desiccant holders in another video, and am also using pull out trays for the ams packet holder. getting ready to tear apart my ams because i’ve had spool 3 feeding issues. i’ve seen recommendations to replace tubes and make sure there wasn’t any clogging, so i’ll be putting on the bambu splitter and some of those quick connects

I wouldn't throw away the 5kg spool filament just yet unless its UV damaged. Chuck that thing inside the X1C with the bed hot and leave it in until dry.

[Gekkc]

Can you tell me please what is the model of this workbench under your printer? Im looking for something similar.

[juliannielsen]

Instead of the Y splitter there is a bambu 4x splitter you can actually get from them for $5.99

[NJM]

Ziplock bags night not work but garbage bags might. Just toss a hand full of descant in there with it and close it the best you can.

[lepreseanaz]

Don't throw out the 5kg spool, dry it on the heat bed

[BuiltByTim]

Really nice video. Especially the timelapse mod seems interesting for me. Do you recommend to place the printer on a workshop trolley? I am currently searching for something similar to securely place my printer but haven't decided yet. Currently its on the floor which is not that nice ;)

[ohwowryanwtf]

Couldnt you just 3D print another plate, would that suffice or am i missing something?

[todhold]

1:32 ew dude.. Why did your hands leave behind so much moisture?

[vinc]

Sometimes bamboo makes some contest and people put their logo there I'm guessing to have more chances to win even though it doesn't even change anything.
