🚀 Quick start

Follow the steps below to customize your chain, or start with one of the preset models.

  1. Customize your chain
    Adjust parameters like the scale and number of links for your chain as well as the style for your links.
  2. Preview the design
    Visualize your chain layout using built-in debug tools. For a closed loop, adjust the Chain Link and Plate parameters.
  3. Export the model
    Export your customized chain as an 3MF or STL file and import it into Bambu Studio or your preferred slicer.
  4. 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.
