Release Notes

A1 Mini Release

A1 Mini support is available. The shared tolerance downloads are the same as the A1 release, and the unlocked generator carries the Mini Revision M toolchange path.

Printing order

Start with the shared A1/A1 mini tolerance ZIP. The A1 mini-specific top bar and Revision M G-code will be online before the shared mechanism parts finish printing.

A1 mini notes

  • Keep the Revision M toolchange macro aligned with the measured Mini slot row.
  • Validate toolhead upward docking into the slot bank without changing the core crown-gear geometry.
  • Confirm the A1 Mini slot map against the generated macro before running a real print.
  • Confirm the first release slot count and PTFE routing notes for 8-slot use.
  • Run load, unload, and change-slot generator output on the A1 Mini before long unattended prints.
  • Record Z-height loss, toolhead mass impact, and any printer-specific mounting changes.
  • Capture proof media showing the mechanism, successful swaps, and the finished print.

Download package

  • Use the same tolerance ZIPs as the A1 release for the shared parts.
  • A1 mini-specific top bar file is published separately online.
  • Generator preset tied to the measured Mini slot coordinates.
  • Updated BOM and PTFE routing notes for the smaller bed.
  • Known limitations and compatibility notes.
