Hello. I am ThatChristianGuy_27. I am a God-loving Christian, and have been for around 5 years. If you don't agree with Christianity, then you probably won't like my models. I have a P1P, and I hope to own an H2C soon. God bless everyone who reads this.

The Scrubbler vs. the OG wiper
The Scrubbler vs. the OG wiper
Hey guys! I recently printed @AdamL's Scrubbler to replace my P1P's wiper. His instructions said to put the original wiper on the 3D printed wiper. Sadly, the way the model is designed, it raised the original wiper up to the height that it would hit the nozzle. Thankfully, I caught it before it hit. I did some tests to figure out which one is better. I tried to add a .pdf, but I don't know if there is a way that I didn't see or if you can't put a .pdf atall. Anyways, my report is down below. (sorry if it is hard to read). If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, leave them in the comment section down below. Thanks!   Scrubbler vs. OG nozzle wiper This experiment is to show which nozzle wiper cleans better: the Scrubbler (remixed by @AdamL), or the OG nozzle wiper (by Bambu Lab). This will walk you through what I did when testing this, with a results table at the end. The Materials:Bambu Lab PLAExtra scrubbing pads from the A1TimeEffort The Process: I first found this model here. Then, I printed it out in the PLA that Bambu Lab sent me when I bought my P1P. After I installed it, I ran the following tests: LoadingThe Bambu Lab PLA was already loaded in the printer.I clicked “Load” which heated up the nozzle, extruded filament, then wiped the nozzle. This was done with both the OG and the Scrubbler.After a), with the filament loaded, I then ran the printer through the unloading sequence:Heating up the nozzle, cutting the filament, extruding a little filament, then retracting the filament. This process was done with both wiperThen, I did a print test with both wipers:I printed a benchy, which ran the printer through the pre-printing process,(e.g. Heating the nozzle and buildplate, vibration compensation, etc.), and let it print a few layers before stopping it. Result Table:Note: the result table shows, when the nozzle was wiped, which was cleaner.Nozzle wiperOG wiperScrubblerLoading✔️❌Unloading❌✔️Printing❔❔ Result Table Notes:(cont. on next page)Loading: The OG wiper was cleaner because the debris merged with the purged filament, taking all debris away. Unloading: The Scrubbler was cleaner because, when using the OG wiper, the OG wiper flung bits of excess filament on the buildplate. Although, a little bit of filament from the purged filament got caught in the nubs. But then again, it is self-resolving, due to the multiple passes of the nozzle pushing it off of the wiper. Printing: I can’t really say which is better for printing. My advice and theory is, if you have a dirty object, would you rather use an abrasive object to clean off the dirt and debris, or would you rather use a smooth surface to clean off the dirt and debris? Going off of experience, the abrasive would work better than the smooth object. Conclusion: Going off of this experiment, the Scrubbler works better than the OG nozzle wiper. Now, there are flaws with it, such as you can’t install both wipers at the time, due to the Scrubbler raising the OG wiper up just enough that it is taller than the nozzle. (Thankfully, I caught it before the nozzle hit).
