More around 1090 (had to look at the groups count) its a local 3D printing group stretched between 2 states. Micro center is our go to. When there is a sale we can wipe 90 percent of the stores stock. We all do use other brands but the majority is inland. Everyone owns at least one bambu iteration. And yes I have personally met everyone in our group. I am not the only one the admins have put on meets to get to know everyone and see where help is needed and who does this as a hobby and who’s a seller.
Ahh I see, I was thinking that you had like 1000 friends that all use microcenter. I don’t buy my normal PLA from inland but I get silk mostly from inland.
There is a wedge that you insert into the spool. It is printed with the Bambu Lab spool. This will prevent it from twisting off.
Ive got an RFID device that connects to an app on my phone that allows me to choose the filament type and colour etc and then write the information to a tag. This works flawlessly on my Creality K2, it also writes bambu tags, but, the ams wont read it. What happens is, you scan the tag you made and stuck on the spool, the app communicates with your printer, the next spool that is inserted into the AMS is associated with the tag you scanned.
