⚠️ Important Printing Recommendations

1. Clean build plate: Thoroughly degrease the print bed before printing. Perfect adhesion is absolutely crucial.
2. Filament choice and first layer: 
   1. Multicolor print: For the first 5 layers, I highly recommend using original Bambu Lab filament or another filament that is perfectly calibrated for your first layer.
   2. Single color print: The exact same rule (original or well-calibrated filament) applies to the entire model.
3. Model scale: Do not scale down the model. Keep the original size to maintain all mechanical functionality and details.

⚙️ Printing Steps

1. Flexible structure: Don't worry if you can't see the flexible joints in the preview. The flexible structure is generated and visible in the slicer only after pressing the "Slice" button. !!! PLEASE USE ONLY BAMBU STUDIO OR BAMBU APP FOR PRINTING !!! Prusa & Orca slicer files are available to download.
2. Print parameters: The print profile is tuned for Bambu Lab PLA Basic / Silk+ and Sunlu PLA Matte. You can adjust the print speed to your preference.

3. Check the start of the print: Carefully monitor the printing of the first 5 layers! It is essential to ensure that the layers print flawlessly, exactly as shown in the attached picture.
