Custom tool that was supposed to have been removed under pressure from a 3D printer maker is republished by a nonprofit

A nonprofit founded by right-to-repair advocates republished a 3D printer tool after Bambu Lab threatened legal action.

The developer had removed the GitHub repo, but the FULU Foundation restored the code and support features on its own account.

The foundation framed the move as a defense of user ownership, repair rights, and open-source access.

The case underscores tensions between independent tools for owned devices and company efforts to limit them through legal pressure.
