Python 2 - Passively Dried Enclosure

Buy Python 2

I've teamed up with a few different stores around the world offering the printed parts and everything you need for the build so you won't need anything outside of the kit:

• VOXELPLA (United States)
• Veetec3D (EU)
• 3DCNCDesignServices (UK)

If you're interested in the panels only for the enclosure, you can buy them from LaserFoundry.

• LaserFoundry (United States)

Python 2 has a strict non-commercial license, it can only be sold with licensing through Hume Beam Engineering Solutions. 

Update October 3, 2025

Long time Hydra and Python Supporter Scott Marcy spotted that Bambu Lab have made a minor hardware adjustment to the AMS 2 Pro and let me know. We've worked together as I only have the older AMS 2 Pro units so he's been measuring and I've been drawing and adjusting and we're now happy. ;)

The changes we've found in the hardware was a small change to the inlet/outlet vents as well as new front rollers. For this design in particular, these are the new files to print:

• python-2-inlet-outlet-vent-front-print-1pc-100b.3mf
• python-2-inlet-outlet-vent-front-print-1pc-100b.3mf

The mounts are backwards compatible so they will fit both the old and new inlet/outlet vents.

Thanks Scott!

About

This is a Passively Dried Enclosure for Python 2. There is also an Actively Heated Enclosure available. The printed parts are actually the same, it's just the front and rear panels that are different but I prefer to keep them apart for different reasons.

It's a good idea to use the Python AMS - Silica Gel Boxes to maintain low humidity inside the box.

The size of the enclosure is 460.0 mm (width) x 390.5 mm (depth) x 293.0 mm (height).

BOM - Bill of Materials

You can print the enclosure in just about any filament you like but if you are using the built-in heaters of the AMS 2 PRO / Python 2 I recommend printing the enclosure in PETG or higher and Python 2 itself in ABS / ASA or higher.

Around 1 Kg of filament is required at the recommended print settings. 

I've printed most of the test builds in Prusament ASA and Prusament PC-CF.

Panels

• 3 mm Acrylic or PC panels cut according to the included DXF drawings.

Fasteners

The following M3 socket heads are required: 

• Top screw holes (with the edges): 16 x M3-12 mm
• Middle screw holes 8 x M3-10 mm
• Lower screw holes : 20 x M3-10 mm
• Bottom of the enclosure (dovetails): 8 x M3-25 mm
• Handle: 4 x M3-16 mm
• Attaching the bottom panel: 6 x M3-8 mm
• Optionally securing Python to the enclosure: 4 x M3-16 mm
• Front vent: 4 x M3-12 mm
• Rear vent: 4 x M3-12 mm

To summarize, the follow M3 socket heads are needed:

• 6 x M3-8 mm
• 28 x M3-10 mm
• 24 x M3-12 mm
• 8 x M3-16 mm
• 8 x M3-25 mm

If you don't have any at home it's best to grab the kit below, it will have everything you need for this build and more:

• 150 pcs M3 Hex Socket Head Kit

Magnets

8 pcs of round 6 x 3 mm Neodymium Magnets are required.

• 6 x 3 mm Neodymium Magnets

AMS hub cable (1500 mm)

As the enclosure is quite large I recommend using the longer hub cable that comes with the AMS hub, it can be bought individually as well:

• Bambu Bus Cable (select 6-pin, 1500 mm)

Print Settings

Notice! If using heated inserts, print the files in the heated-inserts-version instead.

All parts print without supports and I recommend using 3 walls and an infill of around 15%. Print all parts in the direction I have set them.

Print one of each part except for the M14 plugs (see section at the bottom).

The handle has the text “Python AMS” hidden in the first layer that you can paint with your AMS if you like, use the Paint Bucket Tool in Bambu Studio:

Assembly Guide

Please follow the assembly guide for the Python 2 - Actively Heated Enclosure, assembly is identical apart from the dryers.
