Dual AMS (Original) Riser System

Boost MeIf you appreciate the time and effort I have put into designing this then please share your boost. Thank you for downloading and printing my system 👍🙏

 

This is the original DUAL AMS System for the X1C and P1S, designed to work with AMS Riser V2 by maCyo42. This system DOES NOT WORK with the BLV AMS Riser V4 by @benlevi . If you have already printed the BLV riser use Dual AMS PRO 2 Riser System.

 

NOTE: This is for the original AMS only. If you have an original AMS and AMS PRO 2 or have x2 AMS PRO 2 then check my other Dual AMS PRO 2 Riser System Dual AMS PRO 2 Riser System.

I wanted to mount my two AMS above the riser due to workspace limitations and the solutions available on Makerworld had their issues such as not securing the AMS's which were prone to vibration creep & danger of actually falling off!

 

This solution creates a tray that the two AMS sit within and so cannot fall off. The tray has square holes which nestle snuggly onto the top of each bracket (I decided against using 3 brackets to allow for a spool holder due to my concerns over structural stability - if you choose to omit the rear left bracket so as to mount a spool holder, I take no responsibility if the tray warps / breaks). With the tray secured snuggly onto the tops of the brackets the tray cannot move and therefore neither do your AMS's.

 

The tray is composed of 6 pieces (rear left, rear middle, rear right, front left, front middle and front right) which interlock with dovetail joints. These are quite snug (0.1mm allowance) which you can glue if you choose but this isn't necessary as these joints are not what holds this together. There are two plates each with 8 pegs which lock all the tray pieces together. Apply a little superglue (I used Gorilla Gel as it's easier to work with) at the base/edge of each peg then press the tray pieces onto these. These two plates are designed to accommodate the 2.5mm dip from the Risers top edge so that the tray's weight (and of course that of the 2 AMS's) is spread over the brackets, the Riser's edge lip and the Riser's main body (the central part of the top of the riser which is 2.5mm below the rim of the Riser). 

 

Finally, both to help secure all tray pieces together and also for aesthetics there are 6 clips which attach to the outside edge of the tray pieces. You can print these clips in whatever colour matches the theme of your setup (black n orange for me) or simply keep same colour as the tray & brackets. There are two clips with text on each “DUAL” and “AMS”. You can of course change these by changing the ‘Process’ settings in Bambu Studio from ‘global’ to ‘objects’, clicking on plate 8 with the two clips which will select the plate on the settings pane for you to alter. Right click on “AMS” or “DUAL” and select ‘edit text’. These clips fit in snug and do not need gluing, that way if you want to change text or colour you can easily replace these.

 

This is my first major upload so please be kind with your comments as I know I have a lot to learn so I welcome constructive advice so this project can improve and be of value to the community.

 

My print profile has been carefully tweaked for best balance between strength and filament use.

 

I have tested (this is version 6 already!) with both PLA & PETG HF and this system has been going strong with absolutely no concerns since Feb 2025 (current system I use is PLA).

 

Happy printing.
