Description

3D Printing is tough stuff. Learning to use your printer, is only half the battle. There is also complex software to be learned.

3D Printing, requires the use of a program, known as a "Slicer", to convert an STL file, into a file that can be read by a 3D Printer. This file, is a set of instructions, the printer follows, to print your model. This file, is known as a "GCODE" file.

Bambu Studio is the Official Bambu Lab Slicer, for printing on the P1P and X1C 3D Printer. We will be working with Bambu Studio, to teach you everything you need, to download an STL, and print it properly

Slicing an STL file, into a working Project File, that will print successfully, is complicated, and can become extremely frustrating. I will walk you through the most important functions of Bambu Studio, in small, easy to follow lectures. Each lecture, will teach you a vital component, of working with STL files, in Bambu Studio, to help you understand how prepare a GCODE file, for printing success.

**This course is still in development, and you will gain access to ALL past, present, and future Updates**

This course, is tought in a slow, detailed, plain language manner. New users should be able to follow along, to learn from scratch, while current users, should expect to improve their current knowledge.

Who this course is for:

NEW Bambu Printer users, looking to learn from scratch
Current 3D Printer users, looking to improve their results
CURA Users, looking to move to Bambu Studio
