Master 3D Printing in a Single Day & Take Home Your Own Advanced, Multicolor Printer!

Ever had a great idea for a custom part, a unique gift, or a solution to a problem around the house, but didn't know how to make it? In this intensive, hands-on bootcamp, you'll go from zero experience to a confident 3D printer operator in just one day. Led by expert Matthew Jones, co-founder of Jonesing For 3D, this workshop is designed to give you all the essential skills you need for at-home success. Forget weeks of frustrating trial-and-error; leave with the knowledge, the skills, and the machine to bring your ideas to life.

Why This Bootcamp is Different

This isn't just a class; it's a complete launchpad into the world of 3D printing. We focus on what matters most: practical skills and your long-term success.

  • You Keep the Printer: You will unbox, assemble, and learn on a brand new Bambu Lab A1 Mini Combo, which is yours to take home. This state-of-the-art machine prints in multiple colors and is the perfect tool for any maker.

  • Personalized Attention: With class sizes strictly limited to 3-4 attendees, you get direct, one-on-one guidance from an expert, ensuring all your questions are answered.

  • Benefit-Focused Learning: We skip the fluff and focus on the skills that empower you to print successfully on your own, from finding models to troubleshooting common issues.

Key Skills You'll Master:

  • Hardware & Assembly: Confidently assemble and understand the anatomy of your A1 Mini Combo and its AMS Lite multicolor system.

  • Finding & Evaluating Files: Learn where to find millions of free 3D models online (MakerWorld, etc.) and how to spot a good, printable file.

  • The Slicer Software: Master the essentials of Bambu Studio to prepare any model for printing. You'll learn to control layer height, infill for strength, and when to use supports for complex shapes.

  • Perfecting Your Prints: Understand the secrets to a perfect first layer, including how to use common tools like hairspray for ideal bed adhesion.

  • Troubleshooting: Learn to diagnose and fix the most common print failures so you never feel stuck.

  • Essential Maintenance: Keep your machine running like new with simple, effective maintenance routines.

What's Included in Your Registration:

  • One brand new Bambu Lab A1 Mini Combo 3D Printer with AMS Lite (a $459 value) to take home. The maximum print size for the A1 Mini is 180 mm³.

  • A full day of expert, hands-on instruction (9 AM - 3 PM).

  • All necessary supplies for the day, including a spool of PLA filament, flush cutters (pliers), and hairspray.

  • A complete set of reference handouts, including the "Anatomy of the A1 Mini Combo," "The Slicer's Big Three," and the "3D Print Doctor" troubleshooting guide.

  • Your first successful prints: a "Benchy" benchmark, a useful "purge bin" for your printer, and a custom 1-2 hour print of your choosing.

  • An official "Jonesing For 3D Certified Operator" certificate.
