Tired of Dodging Your A1's Moving Bed?

Hey A1 brothers!

After countless close calls with my A1’s moving bed during prints, I decided enough was enough. I looked at a couple related solutions on MakerWorld, but they didn’t go far enough. So, I spent over 1.75 kg of filament prototyping a solution and I’m excited to share the final result: a sleek front drawer that seamlessly integrates with the A1 printer.

Key Features:

  • Safety First: Access your tools without the risk of the print bed colliding with you.
  • Space Optimization: Utilizes the often-overlooked front area of the printer for storage.
  • Smart Design: Angled drawer bottom for easy retrieval of small items and a patterned option that saves ~15% filament (with a ~40% increase in build time).
  • Easy Installation: Snaps securely into place without any additional hardware.

I’m thrilled with how this upgrade has enhanced my printing experience, and I hope it can do the same for you. Would love to hear your thoughts and any suggestions for further improvements!

Happy printing!
