    @afkar7 ahh rats, I forgot about the size limitations… I’m a bit spoiled with the H2C compared to some of the printers I’ve owned over the years

    I should have just went with the A1 to start. I get bitter when I want to print something that doesn't work on the mini. lol

    Same! I'm waiting for the A2L to show up as refurbed on my local distributer's Shopee/Lazada page and I'm going to upgrade to that ASAP.

    My A1mini was "refurbed" but I can't see how. Every thread was brand new. The only limitation was that the 1 year warranty can't be transferred onto whoever I sell/gift it to.

      I asked AI, and you can add it later for the same price I pulled the trigger on the Bambu A1mini. I found this case to print. https://makerworld.com/en/models/2048540-snaplock-storage-box-3ml-vials?from=search#profileId-2210716

      @Stevepep Great choice. That's a great printer for a beginner. Its what I would have recommended for a ~$200 budget.

            Do share. I have the Apache 1800 as well. I’m currently using the foam inserts it came with, just pulling out squares, but I’m quickly running out of space.

            Well... the one I thought would work, I misread the description, it's for 2ml vials and saw a note that it was frequently returned.

            I have a plan though.. lol going to pick up some EVA high density foam, make a 3 layer system, should fit 140 - 160 vials if I do it right 🤓

            Cool find if you have the Apache 1800. I’ll make a separate post, but while on the subject.
            Stores 140 vials, near perfect fit.

            If you get 2 of these, take the insert out and stack two of them in the 1800. I’ll use the boxes for other supplies.

              @snake-pepskin I like this idea! I will be abandoning the EVA foam idea, it ended up being cost-prohibitive.

                I would love to buy a 3d printer. But I tried to work in that TinkerCad and couldn’t figure it out…

                  @Commander I use Sharpr3d it takes a bit to learn but it’s super easy once you get it. You can get started by just downloading stuff people already created on makers world. I have designed and printed a bunch of stuff. It’s a very cool hobby but time consuming and you start looking at things completely differently.

                    Bow complicated is it just to print files people already created? I read there is a lot of settings and different nozzles a d stuff like that.

                      @Commander If this were 4 years ago I would say it were more of a concern. Nowadays with a <$250 printer from BambuLabs its almost painlessly simple.

                      A lot of the Bambu stuff if you just see it from the phone app, you can print directly from there, and they encourage creators to pre-slice the files for you

                        @Commander it’s super easy pick something on makers world and it will open it in Bambu labs. Hit print and that it. Designing stuff can get complicated but I am living Sharpr3d

                                One think I just realized… I have a stupid Mac computer. So these programs run on Max or Windows? I also have a windows computer laying around if I need to use it

                                      @Commander Only if you want to directly connect. The Bambu ones use WiFi

                                        So how do you “print” the file? Is it a program?
