absolutely love these, only thing that was a little annoying was removing the supports on the rings of the piston.

Looks good 👍🏼 and yes, unfortunately it is really time-consuming 🙈

great idea and great looking shelf. the support is tough to get out and the last pic shows where there is a deficiency in the print all in all, well done and thanks

In-fill is proving difficult to remove is some places, this was the longest print with my new X1C. There are some minor layering issues but once on the wall these will not be noticed but overall happy with the results.

@fabiri74

is possible to scale the print for A1 mini? thank you.

@user_4153517709

i believe is something you can do in Bambu studio, keep in mind predesigned holes will be scaled down accordingly but you can always make em bigger with either xy compensation or manually with a drill afterwards i suppose

@user_2250034865

Replying to @user_4153517709 :

Yes, in Bambu Studio, 1) click on the part you want to scale down, 2) select the Scale icon, 3) make sure uniform scale is checked, 4) reduce the size of one of the axis by either percentage or mm value. Repeat for the second bracket. Alternatively, I would delete one bracket then spin the object 45 degrees to see if I could print one at a time. But I'm not sure what the print plate size difference is between the X1C and A1 mini (new Bambu owner here :)). Hope it helps.

@frdemari76

Can you print without support? or whats the setting? what came out around the ring is impossible to remove nice design :)

@jmdirk

I haven't tried it without supports. To remove I used an exacto knife to score along the top and bottom of the ring grooves and the a pick to get it out. It is a bit tedious. You could also try a support interface material which should make it easier
