Would love to see an indepth tutorial on using the bambu x1 slicer!
Ordered my x1 on friday, can't wait! Thanks Tax Return!
Bambu needs to get a 350x350x350 or a 400x400x400 unit out there with a few more improvements to the machine and slicer. If that happens with a sub-$1000 price, they will own the FDM market.
Already wish my x1c had a bigger build volume :'(. I still have a cr10 around if I need it but it just don't compare in speed or quality.
This is the one thing giving me pause to hitting 'add to cart' for this. I really hope they come out with something.
@@jet613If they do make a bigger volume printer the speed will definitely not be as fast as the X1 or P1. But the fact it could do multiple colors it would be worth it! I hope they come out with one but I can’t imagine how much it’ll cost for something that size.
Im hoping to buy the P1S in a couple days. Gonna make some money off the prints because people keep asking me for multiple colored prints. 🤷🏻♂️
@@boddlookthey have explicitly stated that this generation of printers will not but it is in the pipeline.
@@LordNerfherder Can’t wait for it
I really appreciate you showing failed prints and unideal scaling. Cosplay props are the worst for those kinds of things
This is awesome. When I do helmets, in Modo, I draw a contour around a mannequin head that I scanned and using a constraint, I can measure my exact head circumference (which is 24in). And my helmets will ALWAYS fit
Need a 350mm Bambu X2
Perfect, Great information here!
that intro showing how to scale for a head scan model is always appreciated. I have to start doing this lol
Are you printing with a .4mm nozzle? or have you swapped to a .6mm? Love the content btw, keep it up!
X1 + ams I have a .4 nozzle, my p1p is a .4 nozzle, my 3rd x1 i have a .6 nozzle on there. Honestly with the X1 I havent noticed a massive time savings from going to the .4 to .6. However the prints are a lot thicker/durable
sweet~ first lol also, the amount of times run off and print it comes into my head now because of your vids is wild haha
I think it's safe to say Uncle Jessy is a Marvel Fan 😄 Amazing video, keep up the great work.
🤣
Haha I do love Batman & Spawn. Oh I think Nikko has a spawn helmet 🤘😬
Curious if you've ever used armorsmith for resizing prints? I grabbed a copy a few months ago and it's been great! I don't have an iPhone though nor did I have access to your calliper file back then 😂
My helmets inside dome always have string loops with and without supports on X1C
Can you do a video on how to fix it, please?
HOW DID U GET IT TO 9 HOURS MY PRINTER SAYS 13 HOURS
My P1P is coming Thursday. So I’m excited to see any video about it and it’s software. Thanks for the video
Woah, nine and a half hour to print a full size helmet? That's impressive.
I have the last big piece of the Ironman MK2 printing on my P1P right now. Loving my machine. Thanks for the tips!
Any suggestions on how to get a decent scan of someone's head if they don't have help?
If you just get the front / side that might be good enough for rough scaling. Or you could map to another head scan online
What is a recommended amount of wall loops for helmets?
@@ac_drawing6442 I typically do 2. Maybe 3 or 4 if I want it to be more durable or if it’s really thin. But 90% of the time I do 2 walls, 5 top, 3 bottom
I just looked at this because I wanted to print helmets in a 256mm³ build area, for.... reasons... Where I get stuck with this guide, is that I have a fat head :(
Hi Uncle Jesse can you please help me i need your help. I'm trying to print quite tall cylinder shapes on my elegoo saturn and the prints are saying 6hrs but the print is taking 22hrs?? i can't find anyhting on how to setup chitubox for faster printing and i know the Bottom lift speed and lifting speed have a big part to play but i'm to afraid to change these. can you please do a video showing in depth what we can do with these setting for chitubox V1.9.4. thank you so much
The green helmet that didn't print with nice detail, you can always paint it and use the defects to give it a wartorn look. Just saying
Hi uncle jessy, may i ask what will be the layer height and print speed for such size of print, thank you!
I want to get the P1P but can you also print full size helmets like the power ranger ones with it? Thanks!
Depending on the size a helmet like a power ranger will probably fit! You can also download Bambu studio/orca slicer & bring in a helmet file to see how well it would fit
Thank you@@UncleJessy . I actually end up picking up the P1P. Just brought in the helmet file, the top and forehead won't fit at 100% scale, what scale do you recommend?
What are you printer settings that you use on helmets since you’ve made so many
To Summarize the video. Bambu Lab X1C, P1P, P1S isn't enough for helmets. Who wants to print in 2 separate object, bind them and sand? too much time wasted
So if you are using your scan of your head why not just scale it to a bigger size and use your head scan to cut the inside of the helmet for a perfect fit?
One of the things I didn't like about my X1C with the AMS was when doing multi material prints I noticed the filament was ramming through the PTFE tubing
It wasn't causing any issues but I did swap out the PTFE that came stock from the AMS all the way to the extruder for Capricorn tubing
Smooooooooth as silk now and although I can't say with 100% certainty that it helped with the filament purging between colors since I swapped out the tubing I've been able to reduce my flushing volumes with no color bleeding what so ever
I also noticed since the swap that my 24 minute benchy does not have the little zits in the back
I wanted to know why the bottom of the hull on the benchy looked shiny compared to the upper half so I printed it in clear PLA
That is simply the infill on the bottom half giving that effect and it looks to be at around 5% infill
I'm happy you are enjoying your Bambulab printer, the first one you got was a dud and that sucked
I also added LED lights under my AMS which lights up the build area very bright but I leave it off during the calibration process so the lidar doesn't give a false reading
What length did you end up needing?
@@austinouellette I ordered 2 meters which is obviously wayyyy more than enough lol
The AMS has 4 short lengths, then from the AMS to the hub and then the hub to the back of the printer and finally from the back of the printer to the extruder
I cut all lengths to the exact same length as factory so I can measure them up when I get home from work and give you a total length if you like ?
@@austinouellette well my estimations for how much I used were a bit off 🤦♂️
I change the PTFE on all of my machines including one reverse bowden printer I run
That being said I always have at least 4 meters of Capricorn tubing on hand
I measured up what I used and it's over 2 meters
82.64 inches in total if that helps
I thought it was less than that 🤷♂️
Anyone know the name of that bone helmet??? That’s shits fireeee
Do you actually wear them at conventions? If yes, you have some "filling" inside to make it more comfortable to wear?
Nikko is insane. I love it.
I literally told him the same thing 😂🤣
I want a x1 😂😂
I've yet to find one helmet I can print on my X1C in one piece. I have an enormous head though. :(
the best i can do on comparable builds is 12 hours. how does it do it in 6?
Thank you so much for these awesome tips! I've never printed a helmet before so this will definitely speed things up!
Random question; do you ever use PETG for your helmet prints?
Thanks for the video. I was planning on getting a k1 Max for the large build plate but I can’t get of BL’s AMS since I like to print toys out for my kids and nieces/nephews. I can’t decide lol.
Also helps to have a smaller head hahaha!!
hello Jessy dear, what is the program you use to adjust all the details
Love the content! Please upload more frequently.! :)
Thanks! Working on it! 4 more vids planned 🤞 before end of the month
@@UncleJessy saw your new video. Great vid!!
I have a pre order for the Prusa XL 5 head. But after seeing your videos and others on issues I’m strongly considering cancelling my order and getting the X1C. I’m wanting to print full size helmets and I’m a big guy (6’7”). Would you recommend this printer or keep my preorder for the XL? Really wanting quality, and consistency as well as longevity.
Great info just wish I saw it 4 hours ago before I started this 12 hour print :)
Currently working on a 90% size F-35 helmet for my son and printing the main shell now out of black PLA to do a test fit but if it works I won't reprint it. This is gonna be a big project though with the X1C handling the larger items and my coming soon Anycubic Photon M7 handling the smaller bits, flexible parts like the oxygen mask and the clear front face shields. Tossed those into the Anycubic Photon Workshop and the fronts will just fit on the resin printer so I'll use some clear resin to print those. Got some hydrodip carbon fiber patterns coming as well to match the real helmet shell patterns. Gonna be epic when it's complete!
Hey man thank you very much for the Video! :) Out of curiosity, where can I find this awesome monster-skull helmet?
Just started watching your videos. Would be interested in your opinion on purchasing a Bambu Lab X1 now or if you think it's worth waiting another 6 months for them to further fine tune? Maybe I'll find a Bar next to Bambu Labs Headquarters and buy the right talkative employee a few drinks.....
Out of curiosity for those speeds what layer height/nozzle are you using?
His Bambu Studio settings show he's using the 'standard' 0.4mm nozzle with the 0.2mm layer height profile.
Thank you very much for the Video! :) Where can I find this awesome monster-skull helmet?
@uncle Jessy
Please mention what filament maker and material you use for this prints,even if you don't mention or add a link.I am order a X1C and I know some Filaments perform poorly on that printer.Thanks.
So I use my DSLR to take pictures. There is an android app that works pretty good. I think they have a free version but I paid $5. And you can either use the phone app, but I just upload the pictures from a computer browser. So if you don't have a cell phone you can just do that.
Do you know what the Andriod app is called?
Would you please please please do a video on how to print helmets like this on the Elegoo Neptune Pro?? I’m a newbie and kinda lost lol. THanks for all the great videos!👍
impressive on a 256mm pritner too
This couldn’t be more timely. I bought this printer because of your review. And all I want to do is print the waksbda forever black panther mask lol
How to get rid of swirls on the bottom surface of your prints? Not the touching the plate but the surface touching the supports. Thank you.
You should also add room for soft pads or foam material inside. You don't want to wear plastic on your head for more than 2 minutes.
What is that scanning app you use? I couldn't make out what you said.
What filament do you recommend for helmets on the P1P, PLA or PETG?
What is the print of the skull helmet? I searched. Nikko and can’t find it
Those visible layers on the top of the helmet is not ringing, that is not the correct term. Ringing is a a ghosted afterimage of some detail in the print.
any one know how to get that support blocker column in bambu studio?
who needs ears hay lol ..smash and bash
super video who would of thought helmets
Just ordered a P1P, pretty pumped! Going to take some getting used to that smaller bed vs my trusty old, but HUGE, Chiron. Any suggestions for an Android based Scanner?
Gotta ask, is that skull helmet Kurgan from highlander?
Indeed! Have wanted one forever and just saw it on Nikkos site
First thing that came to my mind from the thumbnail was ... "There can be only one!" 🤪
Been looking for that helm for ages! Now I know where I need to go find it. Thanks
Leave space to install padding. It will also slow the heat build up. Find a way to have air vents. Which filament could offer the best (impact or blow) protection? or survive a party atmosphere?
Do you have any suggestions on how to slice up a model but make it organic?
Would love to know how you get these speeds. I feel like all of my p1p prints take way too long.
I've got to do this :P I have both the printer and the subscription lol
Great video iam looking at printing my first helmet just wondering what filament are you using?
How affected is the lidar sensor and calibration with the textured build plate, i saw that Bambu had some Cons with regards to using a textured build plate on there site. Is it worth the trade offs ?
Thanks 👍🏾
Print it larger and add expanded polystyrene to it like a real helmet.
i think these will be best 10 coins spent for a long time
Now all i need is a new head small enough for the X1.
Great video. Gunna give it a go when I have free printer time.
To be fair, I'd have a big head if I had an X1C😂
Are those the new beta only slim tree supports?
Just got my P1S 😊 This video arrived just in time! Thanks UJ for the awesome content as always!
What app do you use on iPhone to Scan?
what speed do you used for the prints?
Im sold. Just placed my order
Wish they made a larger version.
But I have a huge head :/
I.
WANT.
ONE.
Nice one. I love the Tree Support Slim on my X1...so good.
Thanks for the 1 wall dome tip!
what slicer are you using?
bambu slicer. its the default for those printers
Yes. But how can you make the prints go faster. I love your channel and prints but too slow 🐌 😪 😴 😢
advertisement. this whole video is a long and stupid advertisement.
Hey Uncle Jessy, quick question. I’m looking to print RC semi truck bodies in 1/14 for projects. I’m looking between the X1C for fan or the Elegoo Jupiter for resin. I like the idea of how smooth the resin printer will print but have read that resin prints aren’t very strong. What would you recommend between the 2 for rc bodies
Nice, What support interface setting do you use ? Looks like a nice gap there.
