#3DPrinting #dune #starwars
I cant wait to get this rancor head painted & mounted! Let me know what I should print with this!
Red
ok.. now I want a small 3D printer from you uncle 😡😡😤
A huge Mario and Luigi statue
Full size Slimer from ghostbusters.
thats so awesome, make dark helmets helmet, you can probably do it all in one shot full size now!!!
You should print a Spaceballs Lord Helmet helmet...
😂
absolutely 🤣
SPACEBALLS: The reply
Yes!!! 😂
Terrible idea worst movie
As someone who backed the Elegoo Jupiter mostly based on Jesse's hype, and ended up with what's basically a beta test unit, I plead to those of you reading this- wait until the second revision at minimum.
The good news is they should hopefully have a firmware update available soon for me to test that will hopefully resolve some of the things I’ve called out here 🤞🤞
@@UncleJessy Would love to see a follow-up if that happens.
Add my Neptune 4 Max to that as well. Total POS.
Could you please elaborate on the major issue/s you had with it.
@hotshoestudios it's Great machine neptune 4 max. Mines been running 20 hours a day since January 15th and no major issues just occasional Littles ones like bed leveling when I haven't done it in over a week and sometimes having to change to a new nozzle gone through 2 nozzles so it's not that bad.
Should I buy an office chair or an Elegoo printer? Nah, I'll buy the Elegoo and then I can print myself a full sized chair!!
Heck yeah! I want to print my Escape Key stool I designed… but huge 😂
ESC key why not the whole keyboard. Ha
Elegoo printer is better option. Are you open to suggestions on your social media page?
Now you can actually go boating with the family in your benchy!
After my experience with the Neptune 4 series firmware, I don't have any desire to purchase any more of their printer products until they can demonstrate that they have better quality control and mastery over Klipper. Neptune 4 users have been depending on the efforts of a few individuals doing open source Klipper.
Print and Paint- Jaba The Hut
Nah pizza the hut
I've started the pre planning for a 3D printed life sized Master Chief followed by a life sized Arbiter so this could be huge if they ever get it working full up ...
A failed print would be DEVASTATING!
Oh man, any large print is anxiety inducing. I work with BigRep printers and prints running for 5-6 weeks is not uncommon... I don't sleep much when I have those running. 😂
Especially if it is a massive print that could consume tons of filament
That Rancor is outstanding! Crazy printing, can’t wait to see what else you try out!
That Dune print is great. Being able to print our own decorations around the house and for the kids will be awesome.
I'm waiting on the v2 or v3 of this printer after they worked on all the kinks, but man it does look pretty cool.
You're kidding, right? The NM4 is a piece of trash and you think they can perfect this monster.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yea like fakuma said , 3max > 4max
i hope you finaly finish that magneto statue! now you have perfect printer for that
👀🤘
I appreciate the transparency with mentioning that this isn't a review. Love your content thank you
Need to do Castle greyskull. That would be awesome.
Wow!! That's insanely huge!
Holy f... This is AMAZING. With a printbed that big you could make complete dirt bike plastics. or even atv/quad plastics. Making both custom ones, or just ones you cant buy anymore. AMAZING.
That is ridiculously huge. It's perfect for cosplay costuming and such. That monster head is awesome. It looks like a nightmare to adjust. Even just cleaning the bed plates, I'd have to worry about leveling again. It's such s cool novelty though.
Yeah the leveling was cumbersome and time consuming but man is the potential there to print some hugely awesome things. I will be having a lot of fun with this printer … until I break it 😂
I'm excited for when more companies start coming out with large-format 3D printers in the commercial market and further bringing the cost down. Seems to be an ambitious step in the right direction.
i can't help but laugh every time the banana for scale comes up on the screen, it's so silly yet funny
UncleJessy, thank you for being a creator and reviewer who prints a decent size print on the machines you’re reviewing, this thing is awesome.
That print save was amazing 🤌🏼🤌🏼
❤❤❤ This is the Update I have been waiting since November for, THANK YOU Uncle Jesse ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Peeps that backed it are going to have a lot of fun chewing through filament with this beast. Leveling was a bit cumbersome but man oh man am I loving being able to print just about anything on it
@@UncleJessy UPDATE: Got it delivered, and honestly got it up and running with no issues ❤. Your feedback along with many others made a huge difference because Elegoo listened 🤘!
It is exactly what I was hoping for when the kickstarter was announced. I wanted to thank you for your hard work 🫡 because I would have been very frustrated if they didn’t make those changes and they would not have if some Pro Print Masters didn’t get their hands on it first.
❤❤❤
I wonder if the beds are moving around until heat soaked like I discovered on the N4M. That could be why the values are changing.
Those prints are... Impressive. A few issues, but this honestly looks pretty good. Wouldn't be hard to add an enclosure either, though a bit expensive. I mean, cardboard is cheap though. Given it can print stuff the rest of the market simply can't, I'm especially thinking car parts and large household items or huge models like you showed, it could probably pay for itself pretty quickly. Good stuff!
I hope the Giga leads to more Klipper Core XY printers from Elegoo at a smaller size.
That would seem to be a trend in general. Ever since Bambu, more manufacturers have been making Core XY's, and it's only a matter of time before they all start integrating Klipper in some way.
@@ultra_phantomaj8300 Bambu just used what open source printers like RatRig and Voron had been doing for a while. Bambu just made it closed off and an appliance rather than a hobby in itself.
It's not core xy, you can see the x stepper moving on the y rail. My understanding is that core xy only scales to a point.
Let's just call it "non bed slinger" designs. Printers like this are easily enclosed, and their footprint isn't variable on the workbench. I like my 3 and 4 Plus printers, but so tired of dealing with adhesion issues due to bed movement and temperature variations.
@@eslmatt811 Correct. There is a motor on the X axis gantry controlling it's movement. At that size, I'm not sure belts would have worked in a typical CoreXY configuration.
This might be a use case where moving away from belts completely. Magnetic levitation linear motor system might be a great use case for these extremely large printers.
This thing is just waiting for an affordable pellet print head mod to hit the market.
Wow leveliing that "floor bed" is gonna be a nightmare! And backache is welcome too
Maybe try a USB extension cable so you can route it up top. This printer is WILD.
Ohhhh that’s not a bad idea as well!
Excited for when I get my giga, looking to print molds for carbon fiber composite bodywork on my formula cars and maybe designing fixtures for work... Maybe even a life-size formula sim rig for my spare bedroom..
I wait till they offer a max version of it in the double size😂
The Creality Kar size printer
This is amazing dude. Next freakin level. And I have all Elegoo Printers, and I am extremely happy with them. 🤘🤘
The one thing a 3D printer can do that other technologies struggle with, is print in place mechanisms. There must be a large scale mechanism that this could produce that would really demonstrate it's USP
Imagine how much time you can save being able to print larger cosplay props in one go…. That printer is wild!
This really should be a granulate based printhead instead of Filament. You would save a ton of money and could recycle your prints at the same time.
Hey Uncle Jessy, Castle Gray Skull. Lets Goooo!
can tell elegoo is using this as a testing platform for a core xy printer thats smaller and more a bambu killer esk type machine
I've never had an interest in printing large items... until now. After seeing that rancor head, I'd love to be able to print out a giant beholder with gaping mouth and crazy eye stalks.
Now they need to do this for the Jupiter 😆Great video as always Jessy! 🙌
A usb extension cable might be the way to go to relocate the port to a more practical location.
I recommend buying a bunch of small weights. You can embed them in prints or just put them inside the middle of things like the ornithopter. You'd be amazed how much being able to control the center of gravity can elevate prints without having to do really in-depth engineering of the models.
Man that would be awesome to use to print out the 3D topo maps.
Time to join the droid builders! You can print most the parts in one go with that massive printer
That cable length is short on purpose, i can imagine this thing is drawing significantly more power than a regular printer. Increase cable length increase amperage.
As long as the size of the conductors goes up, the resistance should stay the same.
@FunctionalPrintFriday which is why its short, bigger conductors bigger cost. I guarantee the longer one he got didnt have bigger conductors
that's actually a standard power cable for high amp power supplies. I think anything past 1KW uses that plug. It means the cable is thicker and can handle more power.
Correct, it is a standard plug, just not as common. Regularly used in commercial applications like my Eaton 5P 2200 UPS.
I understand that Klipper entered adaptive mesh bed( only on the print area) should be good for this printer and will save some time to start printing
Gotta love when people tell me about a kickstarter i can no longer back
Slightly better than knowing kickstarts that won't even ship to your country 😢
This is an absolute unit of a printer. Very cool you choose my Dune kit, seeing it at such a massive scale is just wild.
I was watching a video of a review of this machine and the Elegoo VP did say they are going to make another smaller model unit in the OrangeStorm line. He didn't say how much smaller though. Sounded like they were going to make a few of these in the entire line eventually. No time line given either. I'm guessing everything is based on how well the Giga sells.
How the first giant thing you printed on this wasn't Godzilla is beyond me. lol
Looks wild and I wish i could have got into the kicksterter pre-orders.
I have a couple critisisms:
Would love to see hookups for users to install their own shields for the front, back, top, and sides of the printer.
Would also like to see a dark mode for the touchscreen.
Use magnets to attach sides.
When they coming out with a 800 x 800 PEI plate? 😄
I just received my DoWell 1610-10 It is 1620 x 1020 x 1020 and it prints extremely precise. If you want BIG and precise, it is very hard to beat this printer.
I feel this is the perfect situation for a reverse bowden tube.
good lord!!!! I almost backed this BUT the room it needs... lol had to walk away but WOW so neat!
Yeah, that's a real problem. I wish the structure could be easily disassembled into flat subassemblies that could be stacked along a wall, for example. Then reassembled when needed.
yes yes yes, i love it!!! All i need now is a bigger desk...lol
I’ve been using one of the boxes as a standing desk 😂
@@UncleJessy lol
painting this masterpiece will be very enjoy
Imagine how big a Zaku can be made with this one
@@ulforcemegamon3094 interesting question， maybe can ask uncle Jessy have a test🤣
I am the same as this fella. I can no longer walk my groceries home in thin disposable plastic bags but I order PLA and PETG by tens of kilos. I find that very satisfying.
3d print grocery bags
I hope Elegoo starts making the tablet wireless capable and then it can be the ultimate tablet to control all your Elegoo printers.
I saw the thumbnail and immediately, i said out loud, "Oh sh%t, he got it!!!" LOL CONGRATS!!!
Wow…that is ridiculously HUGE! 🤣 But really cool at the same time. 👍🏽
You should print the Rancor’s hands or just the tips of the hands to make it a wall hanger with the appearance of it coming out of the wall. That would be badass!
Currently prototyping a cosplay chest-piece on my Ender 3... this makes me feel some type of way just knowing THIS exists and that I could probably print an entire SUIT on that one build plate.
Jesus. Even at this size, the filament bracket is still mounted on the back. USB port on the floor? Why do these companies do this to us? Is it on purpose?
Classic Elegoo lol
You may want to scrap the motherboard and install a Duet motherboard. With the expense of filament with such large prints, the quality of the motherboard will definitely matter. If your calibration sensor is infrared, the shiny surface of the build plate will mess with your calibration measurements. If it is a pressure sensor, then the plate may be too thin and cause surface changes due to uneven heating or flex during calibration. Hope this helps. May want to try a BL touch sensor to see if your measurements are consistent.
Whatever room you build this in, it’s not leaving. My RatRig 500 can go through doorways, but there is no way that this is going through any doorway while assembled.
Didn't realize the extruders weren't independent, that would have been so much cooler, but if I had one of those things would take one of those ultra detailed thrones they do for tabletop miniatures, cut it in half and have a full size one
the auto mesh calibration changes is because of the pressure point abl system. This is the same as the Elegoo neptune 3 machine I have, The value is always changing even though I changed nothing.
This printer is awesome! Please bring us the world’s largest 3DBenchy!!!
That print save was genius! 90 hours, though? That thing needs input shaping! Greenboy 3D’s direct pellet-to-print would be perfect for this to keep costs down.
I’m cautiously hopeful. The Neptune 3 Max is amazing out of the box, but the Neptune 4 Max is plagued with such problems. It looks like this Orangestorm is basically Neptune 4 firmware in a scaled up form factor.
great thing is more company start to take part in big size printing which is pushing the technology and slowly pacing the right price , sad thing is i cant buy this itss too late for the kickstart all perks all gone and not soon enought in elegoo site haha great video as always !
Good to see what you've been up to! I wonder if they could make a small upgrade kit available to move the spool to the front? I imagine they would only need a cable extender, and some zip ties. Maybe a $10 add on?
That rancor is insaaaaaane
Looks like, and if I’m right maybe send this to elegoo, that the screen doesn’t have a dark mode that a lot of people would love 14:00
Not sure if its available for this printer but I can confirm that on Elegoo's website the current version of their Cura for the Neptune printers is based on 5.6! I was super happy to not be forced to use 4.8 anymore if I wanted to use their fork.
So now you have to enclose it, run a chamber heater and push some HUGE ABS parts. Like a boat.
I hope this pushes other companies like Bambu and Creality to do a larger core XY. I am about to buy a Comgrow T500 because I REALLY need a massive build plate and this thing is out of my price range since I missed the Kickstarter (1500 was a crazy good deal) but I'd happily pay Creality or Bambu for a 500cube core XY.
1kg of filament on this printer looks like the 100g of filament that ender printers come with
I wonder why slicers based on Cura are always based on a really old version.
Honestly I have never printed anything even remotely that size but I have a rule I stick to when printing big and big for me is 300x300x320 max build volume and I just print a very small (benchy size) version first, I have saved myself many times now by doing this, that said awesome video and wow what a printer 👍.
!!!DAAAMMMMM !!! That printer its beautiful !!!!....
Perfect for beginners
I've been kicking around, the idea of getting a similar sized Tronxy printer, and I have to admit that, after seeing this video, I'm going to stick to my guns. Both printers are similarly priced, BUT, the Tronxy has a one piece print bed. The thought of having to align four print beds into a single mesh, to say the least, scares me.
You're going to need to buy filament by the ton to fill up this build volume.
I'd love to see a Terror Dog print from that beast.
The same bed leveling issue happens to the Neptune 4 series. I would strongly advised to avoid it since it cost so much and leveling the bed with a probe is the BASIC skill a printer needs to have. Or purchase a different probe for it. Also, purchase a USB extension cord to position it by the pad instead of the bottom. The filament. I would set something up that is mounted to the wall and goes out towards the middle of the printer instead of using the back of the printer. Or relocate to the front instead.
this so cool! so detailed. much filament though haha and waiting time
Seems like "adaptive cubic" infill would be a must on those huge prints. Looks good though.
A problem I can anticipate is the whip that will happen when the last wind of filament comes off the spool
Man I would love a giant printer like this that just worked 100% of the time without problems! I think for the time being it's still better to just slice large objects into sections and print simultaneously on multiple Bambus. Then if I get a failure or problem I'm just reprinting a small section instead of having to completely redo a massive print from zero.
Great first impressions and overall info!
At least there isn't a giant glass door to break
Wow, with all that stuff below I'd suggest a kick plate!!
I was actually thinking about a Kickplate for my doors 😂🤘
man - that is an amazing machine. Part of me wants it, but the other part of me can't justify how big it'll be and what i'd make with it.
It really really needs an enclosure to contain that bed heat (and the VOCs)
Im wondering, with such a long filament line between runout sensor and extruder, isn't it going to wrap around the axis and interfere with movement? maybe even touch the print, possibly catch onto something and cause fail?
Who knows how many prints failed before this one was shown
Glorious! I can't wait for mine to get here. Guess I don't be buying that BigRep after all :P
@Uncle Jessy - The power cord is a standard IEC power cable (can't recall the style number off of the top of my head at the moment) but one can easily buy the plug from a local electrical supply store (off-the-shelf component). That plug is required due to the higher input current requirements that the printer needs (power cord is probably on a 14 gauge wire setup... looks that way to me).
How much does the printer weigh??? Looks totally awesome otherwise. :)
I wonder if it would be feasible to have multiple heads printing at once, for these ultra large fdm printers
