A bold, playful sports-themed panel designed for high visibility and durability. The football is structurally anchored into the post for strength without requiring supports.
The Field Goal EmBlazeGuard Panel adds a fun, sports-inspired visual while still serving its primary purpose: clearly indicating that the printer door is open.
Designed to be both decorative and durable, this panel is well suited for home setups, shared spaces, and makerspaces where personality matters.
This panel is part of the EmBlazeGuard Door Holder system for Bambu Lab X1 & P1 series printers. For system overview and installation instructions, see: SimEyeSee.com/EmBlazeGuard
Back to TopThe seam on the football is intentionally placed on the rear, least-visible side, facing toward the goal post. From normal viewing angles, the seam is hidden, keeping the football clean and visually smooth.
In the included Bambu Studio 3MF, this seam placement is already configured. No manual seam adjustments are required if you print the file as provided.
If the seam painting is ever changed, removed, or not preserved, use Bambu Studio’s Seam Painting tool (optionally with Section View enabled) to move the seam back to the rear-facing side of the football.
At minimum, without using Section View, paint the seam onto the least-visible rear surface so it remains hidden from normal viewing angles.
Back to TopThe football is intentionally designed to be structurally anchored into the field goal post rather than simply resting on the surface.
Internal geometry allows the football to print into and through the post, forming a reinforced connection that significantly reduces the risk of breakage during handling or removal.
This panel is available in two versions: with a built-in brim around the football, and without. The football can occasionally lift off the build plate before it attaches to the goal post.
If your build plate is clean and adhesion is strong, the no-brim version is usually fine. If you want maximum reliability, use the brim version.

A SimEyeSee WarpShield is included with this panel so the auxiliary fan can be safely set to 70% for improved edges, surface quality, and fine detail—without fan-side warping. For more information, see the SimEyeSee WarpShield page.
The included 3MF is already configured using the settings described in the WarpShield Instructions.
⚠️ WARNING: If the WarpShield is not used, set the auxiliary fan to 0% to prevent fan-side warping or distortion.
The values below describe the total print (panel + WarpShield), and how much the WarpShield adds. Material breakdown distinguishes normal flush to the chute from purge redirected to the WarpShield instead of being discarded.
Note: For multi-color prints, most of the WarpShield is built from purge that would normally be flushed to the chute. The flush volume itself is unchanged; the difference is that some of that material is purge redirected into a useful object rather than being discarded as waste.
The brim and no-brim versions measure essentially the same for time and material; the differences are insignificant.
