I'm purely a hobbyist who became interested in 3D printing when a friend recommended the Bambu P1S. At the time I didn't know the P2S existed; I just bought what she recommended. I found out about the P2S when it went on sale, so now I have two printer (and yes, sometimes have both running at once). I bought a new 5-tier steel wire shelf just to display my 3D pieces. But I can quit any time I want. Yeah. yeah. That right... right?? ;D
What a brilliant design. It printed fast and easy. I ordered 2 lbs of desiccant from Amazon (which should last a lifetime), but until it arrives I sliced open several packets I had on-hand and filled this unit. It slipped right in place, no difficulty. What a neat idea!

What I like about this particular chute is that it's not super fancy and can be stretched in the slicer to whatever size you prefer. I was able to get the exact dimensions I wanted. Glued some small magnets to it (you can get magnets almost anywhere), put it on the back of my unit, done deal.

This is a very handy thing if you have a Bambu AMS unit and a cardboard spool. Cardboard tends to drag and cause the AMS unit to shut down. Two of these rings slip right onto the spool and greatly reduce friction, allowing a smooth turning of the spool. Friction-related stoppage eliminated! :D

A pretty design, but the de-supporting was tedious and very difficult. On this complex model I would have preferred to see a custom-support structure built into the model than having to rely on Bambu Studio's always-overly-aggressive support system. Just friendly feedback. : )

Very cute model, easy to de-support. I changed the "splash" design to better match my fridge (customizing this piece is part of the fun). The dragon is well-designed and the idea is fun. It's now part of my fridge decorations. The coloring on my dragon is red paint with a thin black wash. Let dry. I used a pink dry brush, allowed it to dry, and added a red dry brush over it to de-emphasize the color difference. Looks fairly real to the naked eye. :D

Easy to print, works well. Best made on an engineering plate, but it works regardless. Can always sharpen the edge with a sanding block and fine sandpaper.

These print easily, come off the base easily, and work great. This is a model I plan to keep on hand. Very useful.

I'm rating this 5 stars for overall quality, with the caveat that I did have some stringing occur on the lower left wing, causing a problem with a spine (which I fixed with Super Glue Gel). I don't know why because the rest of the model printed just fine. Don't know whether it was a design flaw or a printer glitch. But the model was fairly easy to de-support, so no real complaints. Looks great. : )

Hi all. Hey, has anyone considered making a DOUBLE OCARINA (3 octaves, two blow holes, lotta fingering holes). I would LOVE to see a good one or five appear here on Maker World. :D

The flute printed fine, first try. I'm not crazy about the way it plays. It's a nice display piece, but the last two finger holes (resembling recorder fingering) are easy to miss. The sound isn't especially rich. In my mind it's a "show flute". One CAN learn to play it well if you wish to take the time and effort. But the fingering is different than any other flute or recorder I've played.

Nice build. Be advised: there is an updated version of this with a much nicer sheath. I'd go with that one instead. The d10 holes are a bit narrow; my dice barely fit them. The other dice holes are fine. There isn't anything to clip the sheath in place, so there is some risk of it falling off and spilling your dice out. Once these two issues are fixed I'd give this a 5 star rating. 4 for now. : )

I had trouble with the first two prints of this. The binding was stiff and cracked regardless of extreme care. The third attempt I used PLA gold silk at SLOW speed (60 mm/s). Yeah it took 10+ hours to print, but better a long successful print than multiple failures, yup? : ) In all three prints there was a flaw on the inside back cover; it seems like the wall is too thin and "crinkles". But it doesn't affect the outside appearance or the function, so I figure "nothing is perfect, it's still a neat upload" and give it 5 stars anyway. I like the small portable size. The dice holder acts as a catcher when rolling dice (photo 3). (I used the middle "favorite" setup.)

I printed 2 of these, one for myself and one for my nephew. This is a very neat 3-D "Jigsaw puzzle". The creator even provides a cheat sheet to show where parts connect. The print produces two flat cars from which you carefully cut the pieces and fit them together. A fun project for kids of all ages... even old ones. ;D

This model is called "Year of the Horse". In my opinion it should be horse of the year. The design is amazing and beautiful. I scaled mine up to about 9 inches long and have printed three of them: white, gold silk and bone. All three are gorgeous. When you first print it the support tree looks terrifying. It's not bad. Just take your time and use a good pair of short nose pliers and patience, and the tree comes off without much problem. This is my favorite print to date, hands down.

This printed easily (as would be expected) and clamps on to your machine using neo magnets (you supply the magnets). My overall opinion: it's a nice build and works well, but far too large for most needs. If you have a lot of waste material and need a large bin though, this poop chute prints and works well. EDIT: Far too large is better than not large enough. I'm glad I printed this. ;D

This is a dandy little whistle. It is tiny. I scaled it up and it held tone, becoming far more rich in the process. (I definitely recommend scaling it up. The tone gain is fantastic.) I've tried every type of fingering I could think of but could only get one octave out of this. Within that octave though it plays very well, and is certainly an unusual instrument to add to one's collection.

I am split on this rating. Almost gave it a 5 because visually this is gorgeous when completed. But assembly-wise, it's a bear. One has to be VERY careful with removing supports. Some parts don't fit quite right and have to be both sanded and then carefully mallet-hammered into place. The instructions speak of a "blue ball" that goes on the rear top of the ship, but there was none to be found in the parts. (I rigged one myself). So while it is difficult to assemble, the finished job is quite impressive, especially if printed in Silver Silk (or gold if you want a fancy display piece).
