Bambu Lab just released their new A1 Mini, entry-level 3D printer. Many are excited, but probably even more are disappointed that they didn't release a bigger X1 XL. I had the opportunity to talk to their CEO Dr. Tao, and ask him why they didn't make a bigger printer and many other interesting questions! Sit back and enjoy this interesting conversation!
