However, this project “Bambu Lab - Tools and Accessories Box”will continue to receive updates that it considers critical. The biggest updates will be available on Bambu Lab - Tools and Accessories Box (Revised).
That said, this is the last update at the time this project was made available to all. 06-09-2023.
Introduction
Clips
Some examples regarding fits and snapfits. (youtube link)
Print Instructions:
This exceptionally large project makes use of the X1C, P1P and P1S heatbead area, the correct position of the various parts is critical.
I think this is something that you could make, part-by-part during a period of time e several phases.
You can find a bambu lab Studio Project file with this name: Accessories and Tools Case.3mf
Information regarding the settings, is given in reference to the default slicer setting of Bambu lab Studio:
You don't need to print all at once.
this takes several hours to print, and the printer will not be available for other things in that time interval.
If you have a nozzle with a diameter greater than 0.4mm, make some checks before printing. I recall that the Bamboo Slicer, and other slicers, perform Boolean operations and this allows printing only portions of the parts; this is critical for testing functional zones "fits" and “snapFits”.
You can print the “snap_fit_tong” in PETG for more elasticity. And remember that PETG is more dimensionally stable than PLA. Some people have problems printing PETG with this machine, but I did not encounter any problem using this material.
Tree supports could help(some show very good results (processing in the current version of bambu studio 1.7.3.50 is very slow), but many people are saying that works great.
But my choice is to use PETG has a interface layer. Put the distance to 0mm, and perfection... That said, this is a large print, it takes a lot of time, this will increase the time considerably.
As you understand, I am not responsible for any damage or material loss that may arise from printing this project.
Extra material:
For the hinges, you will need 2x M4x30 CHC ISO 4762, or a FHC of the same size. If you don't have that you can print.
spacer_ silicon_sock.STEP - needed if you have a narrow silicon sock on the hotend (most people will need this)
If you are seeing this for the first time, there is no need to download the “nozzle_wiper_fix.step". If are having problem with nozzle wipers detaching from the case, please read change log (04-08-2023)
Change log:
(27-07-2023) First release;
Added a new STEP file; with bambu liquid glue and removed 2 complete hotends “left_internal_case_liquid_glue_.step”;
(28-07-2023) Correction on “right_internal_case_.step”; label should be “Filament Cutter”, and not “Nozzle Cutter”;
(29-07-2023) - change in “Latches.step”; I added a greater clearance on the latches to compensate for the lip/groove possible misalignment after print (retractions and other tensions on the material), IF and only if, you find that your latches are a bit loose, scale them on the slicer, on the longitudinal axis by 95%. (I've reduced their size a little bit on this change… (thank's to @featherz);
(30-07-2023) major change on the “complete hotend” slots. for what I understand now, and didn’t know, there are 2 kinds of silicone sock on the market, this solution now works with does 2. If you have a ”normal” narrow silicon sock you should use the one pair of spacer_ silicon_sock.step, for each complete hotend.
(04-08-2023) small change on the “right_internal_case_.step” . Better vertical support for the nozzle wipers. (For some members, they falloff when closing the case. If wiper's are falling; I've made a small part to fix that: “nozzle_wiper_fix.step”.
(07-08-2023) Small change to "Latches.step", make them even smaller in the y axis
