Updated - March 22, 2024

Thank you for the feedback, I found out there are different revision of the AMS; either new or old - one has 5 sections and 3 sections. I will add a new model soon for the 5 sections. Your feedback is critical since there is no way for me to acquired different AMS models.

Release 1.1 for 3 Sections

1.1 model is to accommodate two versions of the 3 sections AMS. If the original 1.0 works for you, there is no need to reprint. Again, thank you for the feedback. Please let me know if there are any issues.
Long inner channel is tapered 1 degree, if the handle is loose - you can add masking tape or electrical tape in the channel to add thickness.

Beta 1.0 for 5 Sections

5 Section version is in Beta 1.0, please try to print one handle for test fit first.

AMS Versions

The newer model of the AMS will have 3 sections and the older model has the 5 sections. Please download the correct print profile.

Installation

Please make sure both handles are snugly fit into the AMS plastic ledge.
If not fit in properly, it will have an uneven surface.

Feedbacks

Please provide feedbacks if there are fitting issues; I will revise the model if any. Please also note that untuned filaments may cause fitting issues. Model in photo is printed with Bambu PLA Basic.

I just printed the 3 Section Version but sadly they don't fit. The Sections are to narrow to fit the Handle. There seems to be a different model of the AMS again. The Handles fit in between the gap but are at about 10mm to long to fit between the sections.

Thanks for the feedback, so many versions. Will the 5 section model works for you? That one can go in between the ribs, but I'm afraid it would not in the center anymore. Would be great if you can take a photo zoomed out.

@Basde

Replying to @kstudioca :

I will print the 5 section version today and see.👍🏻

@Basde

Replying to @kstudioca :

I just printed the 5 Section Version but it doesn't fit either. The slot is to narrow or the inner piece to wide. I can't push it inward without breaking the AMS case. I think I have a complete different version of the AMS.

@ChristianL

Passt bei mir leider auch nicht. Ist zu groß.

@kstudioca

Thanks, I'll soon make a new version for this model.

@kstudioca

@ChristianL I got an update 1.1 to fit alternative version of the AMS. The long channel slot is taper by 1 degree for easier fit, but it is too loose; you can put a masking tape in the channel. Google translate: Ich habe ein Update 1.1 erhalten, um die alternative Version des AMS anzupassen. Der lange Kanalschlitz ist zur einfacheren Passform um 1 Grad verjüngt, aber zu locker; Sie können ein Klebeband in den Kanal kleben.

Beta 1.0 for AMS 5 Sections

beta 1.0 (new AMS) fits perfectly snug @kstudioca do you think these could be adapted for the printer itself? I have a '24 P1S. I quite frequently need to move mine and there's no where to grab. Your handles feel real sturdy and comfortable.
