A Bambu Lab A1, Projects, and Lots of Printing!
My Bambu Lab A1 has finally arrived! I had been wanting an Ender 5 for a long time, but now that I have this one, I was eager to see what it could do. After some adjustments and test prints, I quickly wanted to start creating my own models. Here are my first projects, designed to meet specific needs and help me get familiar with 3D modeling.
🃏 Altered Deck Box
I really enjoy Altered, a card game with an original mechanic and a fascinating universe. But, like most card games, storage quickly becomes an issue. The existing solutions didn’t quite suit me, so I thought: why not design my own box?
🔹 Why This Box?
- A format perfectly suited for Altered cards, even with sleeves.
- Optimized design for easy, support-free printing.
- Modular dividers to adjust the interior space based on the number of cards.
- A snug-fitting lid to prevent accidental openings.

The model is available on my MakerWorld profil.
🔧 Customizable Handle
Another everyday issue: broken or poorly fitted handles. Instead of searching for a pre-made model, I wanted to create a parametric design in OpenSCAD that I could adapt to any situation.
🔹 Why This Handle?
- Fully customizable: length, diameter, grip shape, hole size—everything can be adjusted.
- Support-free printing, simple and efficient.
- Suitable for various uses: replacing broken handles, improving grip ergonomics, customizing tools…

The model is available on MakerWorld and GitHub.
🚀 What’s Next?
These two projects are just the beginning! Now that my Bambu Lab A1 is running at full speed, I plan to keep experimenting and creating useful, practical, or just fun objects. I’ll share my future designs here, so stay tuned!
