This was a really nice, well planned project. I did notice one thing that needs to be slightly modified. When you put your printer(s) on the Husky knee pads, because they compress under weight, they are restricting airflow to the underside of your printers. Air needs to be able to flow under your printer, to keep it happy. All you really need to do is, cut a piece of 1/2 inch plywood that is the same size as the knee pad, place it on top of the knee pad, and then put your printer on top of the plywood. You're still eliminating noise caused by vibrations, and your printer can breathe. GREAT PROJECT & GREAT VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!
Great tip thanks!
your attention to detail is always so great to watch,
Thank you! Cheers!
Really looks great and highly functional. Thanks for sharing and pointing out all of the printed things that can be done to use around a woodshop. - Chris
Thanks Chris!
I really like this whole idea, I just wish I had the dedicated spot for it! I did get an AnkerMake M5C based on your recommendation, and I love it. I have since donated my old Ender 3 with all its mods, as the M5C runs circles around it in quality and speed. Your filament storage is clever, and I’ll be adopting that modularity concept. Now I just have to finish my height adjustable table project so I can start this one!! Keep up the great work - I really enjoy your vids. Cheers, brother
Awesome Dfoley! Thanks so much! Yeah, this thing is cranking out stuff left and right I just printed 40 Milwaukee packout cleats in ABS for my ultimate trailer build and a bunch of wall battery mounts today. Let me know how the table comes out!
Great build it turned out great looks very nice.
Thanks Jim!
Great video - I really appreciate your common sense knowledge and the usefullness of your designs. I definitely agree with your comment about how today's 3D printers are SO much easier to use and the print quality is SO much better, than just 5 years ago. I bought my first 3D printer in 2018 - a FlashForge Creator Pro - and with the tedious bed leveling and the lack of 3d designs and the slicer programs that were available then, I stopped using it after about 10 prints. But, I just bought a Bambu Labs X1-Carbon 3D printer with the AMS color system during their Black Friday deals and WOW - what a difference a few years can make. This thing is FUN to use and I even look forward to learning CAD design in the near future. Not bad for an old 69 year old retired concrete mixer driver !! Thanks for the ideas on the DeWalt planer parts and this French cleat prints as well. Charlie in Central Ohio
Thanks Charlie! Yea it is amazing how much better they are! Hey keep learning never too old!
Good video! It actually inspires me to build something for my own as well. This AnkerMake printer is something I should try.
Cool! Yea I’m very happy with the ankermake, been easy to use fast and prints well
Purchased the AnkerMake after watching your video. Love it.
Awesome! Yea it’s fun!
Great idea! and it seems AnkerMake's 3D printer works very well. I plan to buy one for my husband as a gift
Very cool! Yea I have had a lot of fun with it for things in the shop as well as with the kids (seeing a friend tomorrow with two little boys so just printed them both light sabres) so it’s a fun gift maker too!
Since your review video of the AnkerMake I've been seriously considering buying one but my shop is in my un air conditioned garage in South Florida so I have been concerned with the humidity. I was considering building something just like this. Thanks for another great video
Thanks! Yea this will do the trick I have been impressed that the little unit gets it in the 20% range. It took about five or six days before it got down to that level, when I first put it in I figured by the next day I would see a huge drop and I didn’t. The key is keeping the cabinet closed all the time unless you’re working on the unit. At most I keep the doors open for 15 minutes to maintain that humidity in there.
nice work man.
Appreciate it!
Got to say that is one well thought out cabinet. Obviously, your talent shows your quality of work. Im looking for an enclosure to build and i find the Lack enclosure is really cheap wood. I don't need one as big as yours but the information you provided gives a lot of take aways to apply to other builds. Thanks for sharing and i subscribed.
Thanks very much! 😂ironically I think I might be ripping it apart and rebuilding, I want to fit an xl size printer in there and it won’t fit 😅
Great video. I have wanted to try a 3D printer. I was a network engineer and repaired many computers but this was before affordable 3D for the hobbist. Thanks for all you informative videos.
Thanks! You should watch the wood vs 3d video I’m giving away an Ankermake M5c to a viewer, entry ends tomorrow!
Looks fancy. My shop is roughly 80sqft I've been trying to find a spot to shove a 3d printer especially now the prices have come down and the user interface has greatly improved
someone in one of my corner organization videos mentioned they put their 3d printer in the corner and I thought that was a great idea. I did go big but a small enclosure in the corner would be a great spot for one.
I've been using foam Yoga matts on the base of all my printers for about 5 years now, they work great, stops the noise and vibrations traveling through my ceiling into the room below.
I never liked the idea of concrete slabs, I don't find they would help any better for my setup.
Yeah, this matt definitely feels like the same material as a yoga mat just thicker, I think it’s done really well!
great video by the way, @@BitnerBuilt I'm very impressed by the efficiency and quality at EVERY level, loving the modular abilities to.
i wonder if those knee pads will suffocate the cooling system underneath
So on my ankermake there’s a rear vent, for my
Bamboo I place a piece of plywood on to before the printer sits on top
nice video, will be making an enclosure for my printers based on your design, the link for the tool rail system is incorrect , it shows a bottle holder 😁
Sorry about that just corrected it www.printables.com/model/51067-modular-tool-rail-system
Good stuff! What was the CAD program you used?
Tinker cad is ultra basic beginner, and free online! There are solid shapes, and then there are clear shapes that will subtract from the solid shape when you highlight both, and then click the merge button up at the top. So I made my square out of a solid shape, and then I placed the cylinder as a clear shape, and then when I put them together, it deleted the circle out of the middle. 👍
@@BitnerBuilt Thanks! I’m try to print a spur gear for an oscillating tower fan. I hope you don’t mind another question, in Slicer can I pint multiple copies of an item in one print session?
@@mitchellbernstein42 yea I do all the time. The only risk is if one of your parts detached during the print it might mess everything else up, but I was printing six things at a time yesterday.
Does the the printer sink into/ compress the pad? My printer has a fan on the bottom. I’m afraid the weight of the printer would push down into the pad, blocking the air flow.
No like I said it is weird, it’s very firm but also squishey. The ankermake has a fan on the bottom as well and it’s not obstructing it. It’s Home Depot so you can always try it and return it
I bought the M5C after watching your first video and haven’t used it yet. Is the cabinet a must or just better performance? I only have PLA filament right now.
oh definitely not a must. I built it to keep the saw dust off of it. Where an enclosure comes in handy is some of the more complicated filaments, like ABS. That one likes constant heat or it cracks and it produces doc's when printing so it not goo to breath that in. Using it with plastic and many others is safe to do inside the house no enclosure
I have my M5C without an enclosure in our craft room, which has the AC register closed off to keep drafts off the machine. I works fantastic for PLA+ filament. I have not tried ABS or PETG on it yet but will be soon. I do think an enclosure for those will improve the odds for success dramatically.
What thickness of plexiglass did you get and where?
Only 1/8th inch from Home Depot. You would be surprised at the sound dampening for so thin. Some people do a double pane of the same with leaving a small air gap between them as the sound deadening agent
just got my M5C and looking to build something for it. I'm limited on space, so I'm looking to build something as small as possible. Do you know what the minimum depth would be for something similar??
I’m I’m on vacation right now but when I built it for my M5c I believe 24 in depth was what I had, just came sure you move the bed all the way back and forward and give a little gap in the back for the cable so it isn’t pinched
@@BitnerBuilt That's what I was measuring, and got about 22" I think. Anways, thanks for the idea and have a great vacation.
Does your printer sinker into the pad?
Does it do what?
