🚀 Quick start
Follow the steps below to customize your chain, or start with one of the preset models.
- Customize your chain
Adjust parameters like the scale and number of links for your chain as well as the style for your links. - Preview the design
Visualize your chain layout using built-in debug tools. For a closed loop, adjust the Chain Link and Plate parameters. - Export the model
Export your customized chain as an 3MF or STL file and import it into Bambu Studio or your preferred slicer. - Print your chain
Use the provided printing profile or make your own. Configure variable layer heights for your model for optimal print quality.
🛠️ Adhesion Tips
The bottom surface area of the chain links may not be very large, which can sometimes cause adhesion issues. If you’re experiencing this, try the following:
- Enable the Outer Brim in your slicer to increase surface area.
- Clean the build plate before printing for better results.
- For maximum adhesion, consider using a specialized build plate like the SuperTack.
