Description

and yet ANOTHER build plate holder..

 

but this time - in my style!

 

I'm not a fan of flimsy designs and prefer industrial furniture with exposed screws. 

No build-plate holder really caught my eye until I came across the one by SimplyModels

It was close to what I was looking for and ultimately became the main inspiration for my design

 

The design is easy to print: Front & Rear facing down, and Sides on their sides.

The holes are suited for 3x20mm hex-screws, but you can easily use shorter ones.

 

 

------------------------------

 

Classic = Capacity up to 5 plates

- V2 (Classic):

1.2mm spacing for each plate.

Fits all Standard (Engineering, Smooth, Textured, Cool) plates

 

- V2 (Classic) Extended: 

1.6mm spacing for each plate. 

Specifically made for the new Bambulabs 3D Effect Sheets which are much thicker 

(up to 1.10mm with 2 sheets applied). Shout-out to Carlex for providing me with this information! 

 

- V2 (Classic) Xtreme: 

2.0mm spacing for each plate. 

Should fit any plate, even the thickest.

 

 

Mammoth = Capacity up to 6 plates

- V3 (Mammoth):

1.2mm spacing for each plate.

Fits all Standard (Engineering, Smooth, Textured, Cool) plates

 

- V3 (Mammoth) Extended:

1.6mm spacing for each plate.

Fits Standard & Bambus new 3D Effect Plates.

 

- V3 (Mammoth) Xtreme:

2.0mm spacing for each plate. 

Should fit any plate, even the thickest.

 

 

 

------- Full Enclosure 3/3 ------- Now available!!  Only 3 steps to dust-proof your plates!

 

(1 of 3) Closed Rear Panel:

Your first step to fully enclose your build-plates and have them free of dust.

 

 

(2 of 3) Closed Top Cover: 

A simple top cover to further prevent dust collection.

Requires disabling the “Bed exclude area” (more info down below)

(Thx to @lucben for bringing this up!)

 

 

(3 of 3) Closed Front Panel: available for V2 (Classic) & V3 (Mammoth).

The final step to fully enclose your plates and put an end to dust buildup - Once & 4 All

⚠ Please read Important Info / Instructions below!

 

 

 

Instructions:

The Frame is mounted on top of the already existing front with the help of (4) M3 x 20 - 25mm Screws, of which (2) “the top ones” (III) should ideally be of steel - so that the magnets have something to attach to. *For optimal results - print Frame on Smooth plate 

 

When printing the Front Panel, the print will automatically stop at layer 32. Insert (2) 6x3mm magnets (I) and resume the print.

 

In case you don't want to use, or don't have any magnets on hand, just resume the print after being paused or delete the pause before printing. 

To use the Front Panel without magnets, just tighten the (2) M3 x 14 - 18mm hex screws (II) a little more - to create slight friction. 

 

 

 

 

------- Tool -------

Clearance Test:

If unsure which spacing best suits your plates, 

please print the "Clearance Test" first and select depending on your preference or need.

 

 

 

 

 

------- Add-Ons -------

P1S Stacker: 

To easily stack your P1 Build plate holder.

Requires disabling the “Bed exclude area” (more info down below)

 

 

Closed Top Tray: 

Simple Top cover (to avoid dust collecting on plates)

Requires disabling the “Bed exclude area” (more info down below)

 

 

Closed Top Comp. Tray: 

Various flat compartments and a rounded one for your Glue-stick (measurements in mm)

Requires disabling the “Bed exclude area” (more info down below)

 

 

A1M to P1S Stacker:

To easily stack the  “A1M Build plate holder” on top of your "P1S Build plate holder”

Requires disabling the “Bed exclude area” (more info down below)

 

 

WHY & HOW to disable the “Bed exclude area”:

The “Bed exclude area” is that white rectangular area at the front left corner of the build plate visible in BambuStudio. It blocks the coordinates in which the tool-head performs its filament cut. This area must be enabled to make full use of the build plate.

 

 

Edit: Follow my steps down below, or just visit this “Bambulabs Wiki” on how to do it properly. (Thx @Radish for pointing this out. :)

 

(1) Go to: “Printer settings” - Cut the coordinates “0x0, 18x0, 18x28, 0x28” and save this configuration to something you remember so you don't accidentally print other objects with it!!

 

(2) Zip-tie the springy arm at the front left corner of your P1P, P1S, X1C to the hinge of the door - if you have (or anywhere else) to prevent your tool-head from colliding with that arm when printing in that corner. 

 

(3) After initializing the print - Get the Prime-line off the plate - it will otherwise interfere with the print. 

 

(4) Erase the previously created "Printer setting" from step (1) and undo the Zip-tie from step (2).

 

 

------------------------------

 


If you like my design, I’d really appreciate your feedback!

It would mean the world to me. Thank you! 😊

it come out pretty good, i used the flat tray on the bottom and the parts tray on the top incase i change my mind on which side works best for my needs i think i'll make a glue in cover to seal up the rear. I do wonder if a flip down cover for the front might be an idea too. it could use existing two lower screws to attach and have pivot pin parts, with 2 magnets that line up to and attract to the top screws (if metal screws are used) for extra dust protection when some sheets arent used for an extended period of time. thanks for the print! :)

Hey @Bliv I already had some request regarding a back-plate and have 3 different designs for this. Sadly people request ideas but then don't reply/come back to it, and as I don't want to upload too many variants of everything, I asked what their preferred version would be. So here comes the question to you: V1: Would be a simple back-plate insert that can be squished into place (Pretty basic and not my style of doing things) V2: Would be a new Rear-frame with a chamfer, to make a nice fitting back-plate-insert similar in design like the "Stacker-frames" (making it a nicer experience with modularity) V3: Would be a closed back-plate as replacement for the Rear-frame. (Still modular due to screws, but not Plug&Play) In regards of a Front-cover, I had though of a magnetic cover, but many use stainless steel screws, of Phillips screws instead of hex and this eventually through me off. A cover for vertical placement would be easy.. but as I'm writing... I might have just come up with an idea. 💡

i think v3 would be easiest for you (less work) and people can choose which they prefer when theyre doing a new build. but as i've now glued the top and bottom trays in place i may just make a flat 2mm thick plate and glue it over the rear. not the tidiest look but its at the rear so nobody's going to notice and saves me remaking the entire thing.

I wonder what you're going to use this plate holder for, gluing it all together. My Top-cover fits so snug, I had trouble getting it out after the first test-fit ^^ I'll upload a V3 then. You're the only one who responded, so thanks a lot :)

Nice and sturdy. Feels a little over engineered but still awesome. I did have to sand down the edges a little for my dual side plates since they wouldn't go in but otherwise came out very nice. I really like that the plates go all the way in and are protected, unlike the others ive seen that are staggered.

Thx a lot for your feedback! I did enjoy the process of designing so much that I in fact over-engineered this project a little ^^ May I ask what build-plates you're using and what edges you had to adjust? If they are commonly used plates, or those new Effect-build-plates from Bambulabs (of which I don't own any) I'd be very interested in knowing how thick they are to provide a fitting version and add some information to my description. Many thx in advance and best regards

It was only the front cover that I had to sand down a little. I have the Bambu Lab 3D Effect combo plate that has a design sheet on each side. Guess that makes it thicker than normal plates. Also have an amazon plate with the same idea dual side and it was also tight. My regular PEI plates fit without a problem.

Okay... If your plates slide freely in both side-panels, they should just slide in as dimensions are the same, but I might adjust the height of the slots by 0.5mm to account for whatever build plate there might come in a future. Thanks for providing all this info! and especially for the booooost! :D

In all honesty I didn't see the cover. I have a wood workshop so it was no big deal to cut a small piece of hardboard.

If we’re all being so honest. If I had a wood workshop I’d probably make many things of wood too instead of printing. It much quicker wen having all at hand. But in case you’d like a matching cover - now you know there is one :P

Very nice build plate holder. Fits the plates with no problems and I like the mechanical design. Makes a great riser for my computer saving space on the work bench. Thanks for sharing.

Came out great!! The Idea Former plate is a little snug in it but I'm fine with it. I'm going to print more as my plate collection is growing.

Hey Buddatx, I really appreciate your feedback and hope those new Idea Former plates (which must be even thicker than the new Bambu textured plates) are not too snug.. I assume you're fine, thus the positive rating but I got a little nervous to be honest. If there is anything that needs adjusting (because new brands and plates launch every now and then) feel free to contact me and I'll see what I can do.

it's measuring right at 1.08mm for me but it's still snug. I've pushed it in and out a couple times, once it's in all the way it just feels like it's locked in whereas my glacier plate just slides out. if it gets damaged it's on me. I love the design and how responsive you are to everyone.

Replying to @bubbatx :
Thank you. I'm trying my best here :) Let's see... theoretically "if" your plate really measures 1.08mm - you should have a clearance of 0.52mm (which should be more than enough, to make up for any printing-related issue. The "Extended" versions gaps currently measure 1.60mm in height which I could increase by 0.2mm (or whatever necessary) and make a final version as I really don't think anyone will ever need more thickness to accommodate any build-plate then that and have them all covered. *But* just to be sure that there is nothing off here. please measure a normal 80g A4 printer paper with that same caliper to check accuracy (it should give you 0.10mm) and measure the plate again. please check your Build-plate-holder for any print inconsistency, blobs, or other print-issue that might have happened. (also check if the plate behaves the same in all slots, or just one). If your print is fine, I'd assume your calipers are off and the plate is much thinker than 1.08mm in which case I can offer you making an even wider version to accommodate your plates.

mine didn't turn out perfect, ran into an adhesion issue in one corner but still works as intended and not nearly as flimsy as I thought it was going to be. thanks!

Oh, I'm sorry to hear the print lifted. but glas it still works. Fitment is quite snug, so once put - it stays in place. To avoid this from happening in general, give your place a good wash with normal dish-soap. That should eliminate all remaining grease (if there is any). Alcohol or Iso does not always do the job good enough. Thank you so much for sharing the first cover. :D

On my P1S I have not yet experienced any warping, but on my 2 A1Ms several times. In my case it wasn't the part lifting off the plate, it was the entire plate lifting together with the part. ^^

Easily my favourite design on this site so far, and I'm happy to be mentioned in the description for the top cover that was supposed to be included from the get-go. This is the perfect modular print bed storage solution!

Thank you so much for coming back and boosting my design! Mentioning you is the least I could do. I was convinced I included a flat Top Cover, but nope.. I did not ^^ Your print looks awesome btw :D

Thanks! I've been struggling like crazy with my eSUN PLA Basic, so the white rails came out terrible. Luckily I could fix it with some sanding, but I'll definitely have to look into why this is the only filament I ever struggle with. I never knew how to use the whole bed, but with the Bambu guide and their spring arm holder design, it's as easy as 1-2-3.

Best build plate storage design I've seen on this site. 10/10. The only thing missing was a fully flat outside cover, which I quickly remixed myself. LOVE IT.

Hey @lucben thank you so much for the positive feedback!! I just had to edit my answer here - I was super convinced I uploaded a flat Top-Cover, but no.. I have not. Thank you so much for pointing this out! * about half an hour later - Update: I just added a flat Top/Side Cover for everyone to download. Thx a lot for bringing this up - I btw mentioned you in the description, hope that's fine for you - if not, pls let me know. Have a great day! :D
