Thanks so much!

Done and Done!

There’s really no excuse for young folks not know how not drive a standard transmission if the Queen of England did, so can you!!! Thanks for the list Jeffery!

200ah in the battery, and it ended up at about 65% after a full weekend of testing, that’s without adding back in with any solar, so yes for this size trailer it’s great. Keep an eye out for the next episode to see us testing everything out.

We do what we can, believe us he’s generally a pretty jarring person… thanks for watching

Wouldn’t have happened without you!

Thank you for sharing Steve & Ike. As Jeff E knows, the passion we all share for the Land Rover Heritage is only heightened with noteworthy moments in time like this. Thank you to all those luminaries - Mike Bishop, Nick Dimbleby and from our shores Jeff Aronson included - who ensure the Land Rover story is always cherished. Well done!

Thanks so much for watching! It’s true that seeing Linus “making magic happen” is the number 3 cause of blindness is the United States!

Ya you do…

Not that they aren’t available, just that they wear on the printer and don’t work with the AMS, it’s actually called the Carbon because the gantry rods are made of carbon fiber, something that Bambu Lab says is one of the reasons the printer is able to move so fast. Thanks for watching!

@@theunderpoweredhour9893they don’t work with AMS, that’s a fair hit against them.. but even if those filaments absolutely wrecked the machine in just a year you could easily replace the machine entirely, every year, for most of a decade before you spent the same amount as buying an ultimaker. Sure if you need one of the way, tiny handful of oddball filaments that needs a 320 degree+ hotend I guess it doesn’t work, but even industrial uses who’s doing that on a regular basis? Those are hyper specific needs that in almost all cases can be filled by easier filaments.

Ha! Well done. And yes, there’s no agreement that Geoff is the best! Thanks for watching!

Makes you wonder where those cars ended up…

They really are the triple threat of vintage Land Rover based comedy…

The mastery of navigation, driving and sailing terminology on offer here is truly impressive! Well done all.

Can’t wait for the next round!

Agreed, a truly industrial machine is SLS or SLA these days, and the S1 is also a great machine for under $1000! It’s really just a great time to be involved in 3D printing.

Great question, it’s not always necessary but it is good practice. If you lightly set the rivet you can inspect it and make sure it’s sitting flat on top and the dome looks good, it’s also easier to do a quick set if the part is in a tricky spot, once the part is held, then you can reposition your bucking bar, or even use a different bar to do the finish setting. But if you are doing simple and easy to access rivets that you feel good about driving home in a single shot, then by all means go to town!

I agree all the way around, Bamboo has done some incredible work, and those little machines are just fabulous. I would love to see a multi extruder machine or even a tool changer machine from them in the future… that would be very cool!

Hey there, that’s true, something like TPU and PETG at the same time won’t work because of how the AMS works, the best option right now is probably the Prusa XL, it can have up to 5 tool heads and you can add them as you need them. It’s expensive, but there are some build yourself options that can make it a bit more affordable. There are others out there but your mileage will vary depend who it’s being built by. The Prusa stuff is extremely good, and very reliable. Thanks for watching!

Thanks so much for listening! We love chatting with Nick, it definitely won’t be his last appearance on the show!

Just wait for the “special features” coming soon Bob. There’s some fantastic content on the way.

Thanks so much for listing!

An ocean of tiny bins! Thanks for watching.

Ya, we’ve been giving it a lot of thought and agree that the expedition livery is the way to go for sure, we’re going to replicate the dual tire carrier and the roof rack as well, perhaps we’ll even take it on a bit of an expedition once it’s done! Great to hear you’re also a 101 enthusiast, great car for sure, thanks for watching!

Glad it was helpful!

Ya, we’re still dialing it in. Lot’s of things to tighten up. We’ve also added some reinforcement to the tower and changed the feed from that spool, turns out that it’s too hard for the head to turn that heavy spool, we’ll post some updates soon. Thanks for watching!

You might want to check out some of our video content, instead of the podcast. There's loads of pictures there!

Indeed, in fact we've just packed the Ultimaker off to a new life elsewhere... Check out our latest video to see what we replaced it with.

It sure is, we'll be getting to work on it soon so mack sure you're subscribed so you don't miss it. It's going to be a great project.

Ha! That's amazing! We really love the Tomcat, really need to get one...

James is great! We have some highlights from his experience here on TH-cam too! Hope you catch that!

There's a really small selection of filament that requires a hotter hot end than the Bambu can take but you're right, the S5 has had it's day, check out our latest video and see what we've replaced it with.

I agree, the march of progress has passed the S5 by... check out our latest video and see what we've replaced it with... it's a pretty big deal...

Yep, you have to be into some pretty exotic stuff to really need the S5. We've recently replaced it with something new, check out our newest video and see what we ended up with.

That’s a great question, the transmission runs the power takeoff, that runs a hydraulic pump that in turn runs the winch. Thanks for watching!

Doesn't feel at all unreasonable to remove the door of the car just to take off the plastic air intake... just saying... but appreciate you doing it the right way! and thanks for watching!

That's a great idea for another video, I have to this new one anyways, we'll shoot and post it.

I'm sure the manual often instructs you to remove the door on your 80", it's just a much simpler process...

It is indeed...

We'll be there Bob, and our big boy pants are soaked in 90w gear oil...

@@theunderpoweredhour9893 We should all be proud to sport 90W. A badge of honor!

Five incredible women, with some amazing stories, we couldn't agree with you more! Thanks for watching!

Sure can, ABS and ASA are a little much for the filtering system that's in that machine so we wouldn't want to be sleeping in the room with it while it prints overnight but it will do it for sure. Nylon and PEKK are two other materials that we print often and they are hard in the case of Nylon and impossible in the case of PEKK but honestly, we could send those parts out, and still send up paying less overall than buying another Ultimaker, so when the S5 leaves this world that's likely what we'll be doing.

have you tried tpu

@@Speedgaming802 yes. prints great. just can't use in the multi material system

Agreed, we haven't stopped this little guy in almost 4 moths now, it's loaded with two spools of black and 2 spools of grey and just keeps sucking them down and auto switching, it's like a tiny single machine print farm. We've cocked one of the standard beads but sense moving to the textured PEI bed, zero issues.

Then use LAN-only mode and stop crying about it. If you're still paranoid, than turn off Wifi altogether and just slice and save to the SD card.

Indeed, we have all this internet connected stuff on our "Utility" network, away from anything important. I know some folks have decided to just use local file service because they are worried about this, so it's a something you have to decide for yourself.

Yep, that's one way to go. Thankfully we're not using it for anything secret or sensitive, but some people might want to lock it down local, up to them I guess.

There are a lot that the Bambu won't print, but the one big one that we print in the Ulitmaker all the time is Nylon, it's the worst material in the world to print... it warps like the starship enterprise as soon as it hits the bed and needs to be printed very hot (too hot for the X1) on a very hot bed (too hot for the X1) just to have a chance at working. The Ultimaker Material Handler also deals with Nylon, not sure if the AMS will, if it wasn't reenforced with anything probably. The other material we sometimes print is PEKK, that's PEEK's little brother and after annealing let's us make parts that will work in temperatures up to almost 500ºF, it's also not fun to print at all and requires the much hotter hot end that the Ultimaker has. BUT the X1 can do 90% of the printing jobs that we need to do, and if we didn't have the Ultimaker we could send out our Nylon and PEKK parts and be fine.

Agreed that printing high VOC materials with the X1 isn't a great idea, as Steve mentioned in the video that's one of the big advantages to the Ultimaker, it's ability to print more material types. I think the real point of the video is there's not really a better overall just a better for your needs, and I sounds like you have a pretty impressive setup! Thanks for watching!

Ha, yes indeed the printhead did catch fire... we were printing some questionable wood filled material a little too hot... anyway... Ya, I'm not sure what the Ultimaker folks are up to, I love the printer and the software but they are just too expensive to maintain when compared to others on the market with almost the same features.

They've changed their target market to commercial users and away from home 3d printers. I get it to some extent bc it is very hard to compete with Chinese company prices. In theory ultimakers should hopefully be much more reliable and have better service but I think that can only go so far. It can be hard to justify one ultimakers for reliability and customer service when you can buy 5 bambus for the same price that can do the same thing faster and possibly better quality too. I'm no where near defending Bambu and I try to avoid made in China as much as possible. I'm ok with paying a premium for non MIC products but not 5x. Get real. I worry Prusa will also go in this direction as ultimaker and lulzbot did. Less innovation, more expensive but a lot better service.

@@theunderpoweredhour9893 wow crazy it caught fire. But good thing it didnt burn the whole place down!

Indeed we have, the Ultimaker has printed tens of thousands of meters of filament and is able to deal with material that needs a hot end that goes to 400º but the little X1 sure is amazing for what you pay for it, but as I said, it's not really built for the insane amount of hours we've put into the Ultimaker so we'll see if it lasts but it's cool to see tech progress.

@@theunderpoweredhour9893for sure!
