Having an idea for a simple, parametric spool adapter, writing the code in #OpenSCAD, generating the 3MF file for the slicer, sending it to the #BambuLab #A1mini printer and having it printed. All in less than an hour. I like!

(the OpenSCAD code is in the ALT text of the first picture, in case you want to use it :)

The #A1mini is "just" a tool, unlike all the other #3Dprinter in my collection, going back to 2012. All printers before were projects (but also more open). Every printer a diva in its own way. But the #BambuLab JustPrints(tm), so I can focus on other things. That's truly a big change, allowing me to do things like this. Design, print, iterate. That's the way it should be, IMHO. I never thought a 3D printer could be boring and that that would be a good thing :)

@jwildeboer nice, I feel like that’s been the promise of every new 3D printer for a decade now, finally come true.

@jwildeboer Don't write such things like "just prints". I might be tempted to get one (and replace my Anycubic Mega S which is gathering dust due to a messed up hotbed) and that wouldn't make my significant other happy... 😬
