I'm getting a consistent band on this particular piece. I tried the 3mf as well as my own slice. Also tried on 3 different printers; A1, A1 Mini, P1S. Any idea what may be causing this issue? Love the design!
Just updated the files for the tap light housing (both ball and socket and print in place versions). Let me know if the updated file prints better! I tested it on my A1 and that line is almost completely gone.
I see this line very faintly on a few of mine as well. Matte Charcoal PLA from Bambu Lab has had the best results for me so far. I've only printed these on an X1C so far but I'm doing some tests on an A1 with different settings to try to minimize that line.
This is a super common problem with models that have flat top surfaces with walls that continue up beyond them. It's the same problem as the benchy hull line.
Printing outer walls first can help, but the print in place mechanism didn't work as well. I'm testing increasing the speeds for internal bridges and top surfaces right now. Hopefully that helps but if anyone finds settings that work well, please let me know!
Hey there, just purchased this model but i cant seem to find the lights that you used. Amazon says they cant be shipped to my location but i found simillar ones online i dont know if they can fit. have attached their pictures below please advise me.
If you can send me a few that are available to you in Europe that I can also get in the US, I'll make another version that fits them! I didn't realize the ones I'm using weren't available for our European friends.
I'm also having problems with the swivel mechanism of the print in place holder breaking and not swivelling. After some looking around on the model. are the tolerances of 0.2 too small?
The design is fantastic, but I am having problems with the print-in-place lights breaking instead of swiveling when I twist them. I have tried several different settings, including the default 0.20mm Standard profile, but to no avail. For reference, I am printing on a Bambu A1 (with Bambu's white PLA Matte) using the Bambu slicer.
Hello Brian, is it possible for you to make the base and the extension a little shorter or divide them into several parts? Unfortunately, the Z height of an MK4 is only 220mm. That would be great!

Hi Brian, I would like to if this will work with the barrina growing lights? https://www.amazon.com/Barrina-Spectrum-Magnetic-Linkable-Dimmable/dp/B0DR2MLXCG/ref=sr_1_5_sspa?crid=2ZX5MVEIKJJCP&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.LyPaSqXdOmkyw0KyGDoy_uNYAqPwQZwFPPBe08vxSlLacXITQnUen6hIcCfLhP7ui8rq4nKQ3YVezjVbYU9bD4fV03WB4SoW8pL_-v5s7nxW11uY637CT8ILUm8cTp1kEcHEI8Zv1tvX4uOYpHHWJE5GTHMKMCA9uz9k1mrFfaVBWkwy07be1kKfCdDDR4LZcKsFmJaOo8c1EAyBp_Y5O7ripwfjPn1IGIUsMdMeQ0O7Kqzpx3BeRKohr0TBCQIQNTheJoGQ4xgnMqvkEk_Kt2OVforvWZF0Uq
I too would love if this would work!
Has anybody found somewhere which will sell identical lights into Europe?
If you can send me a few that are available to you in Europe that I can also get in the US, I'll make another version that fits them! I didn't realize the ones I'm using weren't available for our European friends.
what lights did you use? I was hoping to use these ones but they are slightly bigger. Would you be able to create a version based on these?
Hi Brian - Do you have plans to produce a version for The Rail or Horizontal Rail?
what the diameter of the lamps pole here? Could this be used on your other rails?
Am I able to mount the lamp on The Rail and where to but the lamps "DAZZY DOT Rechargeable Puck Lights" in Europe?
I'm also having problems with the swivel mechanism of the print in place holder breaking and not swivelling. After some looking around on the model. are the tolerances of 0.2 too small?
How do you recommend printing the ball point socket? Im having major issues of it failing midway and the threads not working with the set screw
Hello LoftedGoods,
Is it possible to make the file smaller so that it can be printed with an MK4? Unfortunately, the STLs are too high.
Thank you and greetings.

Thank you in advance.
Hey, are you able to list the dimensions of the lights you used? Trying to find something compatible locally! Thanks.
The original design the lights don't swivel they just break off if you twist them.
What settings did you use?
Have you tried a different filament? I am printing that piece right now, I will see how it comes out
