Description

**CHECK OUT V2 HERE** https://makerworld.com/en/models/185439#profileId-204181

**ALSO CHECK OUT MY RISER DRAWER SYSTEM HERE**  https://makerworld.com/en/models/185440#profileId-204184

After many iterations I finally got something I am happy with. I used a led strip that is powered by USB and plugged it in the 5V plug behind the screen on my P1P/P1S. There are access holes on both sides to run cabling/led strip. Open pocket behind logo to stash some lights to illuminate it. Vents only on the sides with a sliding doors built in. Which are held down by the glass. Front logo is a seperate piece to save time and filament. Only two color changes this way opposed too many if it is part of the model. Picture was printed in Bambu Matte Black and Bambu Green. 3mf is set with slower outer walls to prevent bulging and poor overhangs at top of hexagons.

This is looking really nice. Which AMS Riser did you put on top? I like the combination of these two additions.

Thank you very much, the riser on top is the -Robust AMS Riser by blecheimer, has it set for PLA-CF, but I only had PETG-CF on hand, so that is what I used. Yeah, I really like both of them, and YES, makes the "Perfect" combination??

I used the riser by blecheimer and called the Robust AMS Riser, set for PLA-CF, but all I had on hand was PETG-CF and worked out well. Yes, the BOTH make the "perfect" combination!!

I've put led strip all the way around on the inside, it's so bright now that the light shines through the green.

Works with the X1C. Had to make a hole in the back split part to run the LED lights through.

Thanks.. Glad you like the model. Looks great in that color combo. Quick question, you're the second person who mentioned having to run their LED cable through the back. I was unaware the X1C didn't have the 5V plug up front like the P1P/P1S does. If I were to add a hole in one of the back pieces would it be more beneficial on the right or left corner. The only issue I see with doing that is then there will be a hole that is always open in the back, but i suppose it couldn't be any worse than what is lost through the poop chute.

Hi, Yes, X1Cs don't have a 5v plug in the front which was a little confusing for me, I thought P1P/P1S owners were splicing wires to connect the LEDs. As far as the location for the hole. I would say in the middle where the 2 back pieces meet so you can keep the hole to just the size of the USB cable and sandwich the 2 pieces together around the USB cable. I attached a pic of the crude hole I made lol.

Yeah, I didm't realize the X1C didn't have the pig up front either. I used your info in the V2 version. Unfortunately I was unable to modify the existing file. Had too much history and changes after I uploaded it. So I started from scratch. Wanted to make a couple other changes as well.

Thanks, glad you like it. Just FYI the bottom inner edge of the logo will sit better if you sand it down a little bit. I had the tolerance a bit tight on that section. Nice color combo.

Came out as a great print, I just scuffed the logo a bit. I would say it's worth the print to keep those chamber temps down, and just look awesome. I just can't find the LED's so if anyone could send the link that would be great.

Really well balanced design this. I looked at a good number of these risers before settling on this one. I like the simplicty of being able to open/close both sides independently and using a single slide motion. I keep the door shut and both vents open for PLA and for PETG, just one side of the vents open. Used in combination with an air purifier close by I feel like this has helped matters. Better yet, those annoying filament pullback errors due to the constrained bowden tube path are now a thing of the past, and have remained so for several months. As a bonus there's no more "snow" from the ptfe tube rubbinfg against the top glass! I drilled a hole in the back for which to route the power cable for the LED strip. This allowed me to cut into a 5M Tapo smart addressable LED strip and continue the run outside the printer along my office under a window sill. Now I can have bright white illumination inside the printer and some other stupid colours for "gaming mode" on our PCs ;-D I ended up with some slight scarring/defects around the vent holes, but that's likely to be my filament or printer calibration. Thanks for taking the time to design this so I didn't have to!

Thanks for the review. Glad you like my model. Another bonus I like is that you don't have to worry about storing the doors/sliders when not in use. Its all a self contained piece. Thanks again

fantastic work! love the look of this. were there drawers that fit under this? I thought I saw something about that or maybe your model was linked in the drawer someone else designed.

The drawers I have under my AMS are the BABO Duo drawers. Somebody else's design. They are available on maker world. The last I checked the designer added a whole bunch of other things along with them.

Thanks for your effort. Excellent model. It was easy to print (transparent PETG) and looks fantastic. I love the improved light. 5V for 4x 300mm LED strips are taken from USB A connector and switched by micro relais triggered by original light. I glued the parts with transparent epoxy to close minor gaps.

Did this today in pla. Good work. Thank you. The front plate needed a little sanding to fit in their position in the front frame, diameter of holes was a bit too big for the pins and I had to use the short ones, glue them in and also glued all 4 parts of the frame, now I’m waiting for the delivery of led stripes.

Thanks. glad you like it. There are 2 set of pins. one was left in by accident when I exported it. This was like the 5th iteration I made. I printed at least 7 before I settled on this. I ended up sanding the logo a bit. I sanded all mating surfaces flat on a flat surface. So i would have minimal gap between them. Thats also why i didn't go the dovetail route for joining them. way to difficult to get a nice flat surface to join together. not everyones printer is going to print exactly the same. Especially depending on the filament used. Pegs and holes and flat mating surfaces leave more room for adjustment during assembly. Then used glue to join them all so it would be good and solid. Thanks again
