Foreword:

• Still worried about running out of print beds and having them sit idle?
• Still concerned that your flower pots or storage bins are just gathering dust, taking up valuable space?

• Or perhaps you’re dreaming of a versatile, multi‑functional desk lamp?

  Let Nothing Q1’s unparalleled expandability handle it all—once and for all.

This is a bold design—perhaps the very first model on any 3D modeling platform to redefine the print bed, adopting an all‑in‑one modular structure. If you love this approach, please show your support!

The lengthy, convoluted print guides and hardware lists have been tucked away in equally long assembly instructions—please refer to those for details.

Please note: the little cat featured in the cover image is not part of the model itself.

Currently available for download are:

• Lite Print Bed
• Standard Print Bed
• Part Storage Box
• Rotating Flower Pot

• Desk Lamp & Figure Stand

  More expansion modules are continuously being updated.

  Please note: do not use double‑sided decorated print beds with the AMS, AMS2 Pro, or AMS HT; while single‑sided decorated beds are not recommended for these printers, they pose no issues when used with the AMS Lite.

  Here’s a breakdown of the print plates required for each component:

• Lite Print Bed: (Print Plates 1, 2, and 3)

• Print Bed: (Print Plates 1, 2, 3, and 8; if you wish to apply double‑sided decoration, be sure to print Plate 9 as well.)

• Flower Pot: (Print Plates 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, and 8; if you’d like to add double‑sided decoration, print Plate 9 as well.)

• Part Storage Tray: (Print Plates 1, 2, 3, 6, and 8; print Plate 9 if you plan to apply double‑sided decoration.)

• Desk Lamp & Figure Stand: (Print Plates 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 8; print Plate 9 for double‑sided decoration). Note: when printing, be sure to swap the first plate for a semi‑transparent material—this step is crucial.

   

All optional components’ required parts are listed below—feel free to select based on your needs, as illustrated in the diagrams below.

Backstory:

On Nothing Island, a realm suspended between time and space, amidst the relentless pace of daily life, nearly everyone carries a multifunctional companion—the Nothing Q1.

Are these just two simple circles? Is it merely a print bed? Not at all—far from it.

Thanks to its intricate SPCB (Super PCB) architecture, the Nothing Q1 boasts powerful, multi‑faceted capabilities—and almost every living entity on Nothing Island has one.

The Nothing Q1 packs an astonishing degree of expandability, driven by its staggering number of SPCB terminals, which are compatible with virtually every major protocol.

Given the widespread adoption and near‑universal necessity of the Nothing Q1 across Nothing Island—almost everyone simply must have one—it’s no surprise that the Q1 has also found its way into the Life‑Form Cultivation Program. Of course, this feature isn’t mandatory yet—but it’s certainly gaining traction.

And now, the Nothing Q1 in your hands is a relic left behind by Acrab.

Each Nothing Q1 bears a unique surface pattern—after all, every life form on Nothing Island has its own distinct role to play. As a result, every Nothing Q1 features a different SPCB configuration—and within the grid of grayscale-filled workstations, the Nothing Q1 stands as the only object capable of subtly revealing a touch of personal character. Though strictly forbidden, nearly everyone has altered their SPCB in some way—even if only by etching a lucky charm or their own name onto it, or something similar.

Typically, the Nothing Q1 is sold as a finished product—but each unit is also available as a kit, complete with individual parts. Once the self‑locking mechanism is engaged, however, the Q1 becomes incredibly difficult to disassemble. What Acrab left behind was—of course, in accordance with Nothing Island’s “customary practices”—he engraved his own lucky charms and distinctive textures onto the device. Acrab cherished his Nothing Q1, but for reasons unknown, he never took it beyond the confines of Nothing Island. Some life forms speculate that Acrab may have imbued the Nothing Q1 with certain hidden energies, using its force field to breach the surrounding walls—but the only thing we know for sure is that Acrab once said this device was beautiful… though there was one flaw: no one truly knows what “beauty” means. He did say he had infused the Nothing Q1 with something new, something unique—but still, it wasn’t quite enough.

Yet this Nothing Q1 does possess a unique force field, one that seems to elude even the firmest grasp. And while its expandability appears limitless—though this isn’t something that can be achieved simply by adding more ports—these remain nothing more than speculation. No life form dares—or even could—tamper with the inner workings of this Nothing Q1.

Hold the Nothing Q1 aloft, gaze into the center of the concentric circles, where light spills forth from beyond the outer walls.
