+# Fred's 3D Print Farm
+
+**3D printing business configs, printer profiles, and production-ready files**
+
+## What's Here
+
+- **printer-profiles/** - Slicer profiles and printer configs (PrusaSlicer, Bambu Studio, Cura)
+- **production-ready/** - Tested and approved 3MF/STL files ready for printing
+- **designs/** - Work-in-progress designs and customer orders
+- **docs/** - Documentation, workflow guides, and business info
+
+## Printers
+
+- **Bambu Lab A1** - Primary printer
+  - Needs: Spare hotends, feed tubes (see shopping list)
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. **Design** - Fusion 360, Blender, or AI-generated
+2. **Slice** - Bambu Studio or PrusaSlicer
+3. **Test** - Print sample, verify quality
+4. **Production** - Move to `production-ready/`
+5. **Track** - Update inventory and orders
+
+## File Organization
+
+```
+production-ready/
+  widget-v2.3mf           (latest version)
+  bracket-final.3mf       (approved for production)
+  custom-part-tested.stl  (customer order ready)
+
+printer-profiles/
+  bambu-a1-pla.json       (PLA profile)
+  bambu-a1-petg.json      (PETG profile)
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+- Store only TESTED files in `production-ready/`
+- Keep design iterations in `designs/work-in-progress/`
+- Document settings and lessons learned in `docs/`

+# Getting Started with 3D Print Farm
+
+## Printer Setup: Bambu Lab A1
+
+### Initial Configuration
+- Calibrate bed (auto-leveling)
+- Load PLA filament
+- Set up Bambu Studio connection
+
+### Recommended Settings (PLA)
+- Nozzle temp: 200-210°C
+- Bed temp: 60°C
+- Print speed: 50-100mm/s
+- Layer height: 0.2mm (balanced quality/speed)
+
+### Maintenance Schedule
+- **Daily:** Check first layer adhesion
+- **Weekly:** Clean build plate, check nozzle
+- **Monthly:** Lubricate rails, check belts
+
+## Shopping List
+
+### Spare Parts Needed
+- [ ] Spare hotend (Bambu A1 compatible)
+- [ ] Extra feed tubes
+- [ ] Nozzles (0.4mm, 0.6mm)
+- [ ] Build plates (smooth PEI)
+
+### Filament Inventory
+- [ ] PLA: Black, White, Gray (1kg spools)
+- [ ] PETG: (for functional parts)
+- [ ] TPU: (for flexible parts - optional)
+
+## Workflow Tips
+
+1. **Test every new design** - Print one sample before production
+2. **Document settings** - Save successful profiles
+3. **Keep it organized** - Version control everything
+4. **Quality over speed** - Better to deliver great prints
