If you want to make it into a lamp I think you should print a few more of different sizes and hang them on the lights of one of those big floorlamps that has a bunch of adjustable arms! It'll look like an alien jungle flower! Maybe have something hanging out of them like pistils.
I don’t have a 3D-printer, I don’t Even understand How They work. But, I still love your vids, so Please Keep on doing What You are best at. (PS: plz make that green vase into a hat :p )
Thanks for the promo code i have been looking at this printer for a minute and was waiting for a deal and then your video pops up with promo code so i pulled the trigger on it
it looks like tevo payed attention to the build plate criticism cause i just ordered one and got it in the mail and it has a nice glass build plate that already had the test print on it for some reason that was nice to pull off only for me to print it again.
Keep your bed at 35-40c to remove parts! At room temps it's surely stick like crazy. Give it a try, it saved my PEI bed from "glued" ABS (buildtak is quite similar to PEI)
I started a print of the spool holder, that came with the printer, using PETG and it stuck fast. Increased the plate temperature to 40 Dec C, and with a little prying using the spatula that was supplied, and the print just pealed off. Now to find out why I got an Error 5 3hrs 40Min into a 10 Hr print.
Hey love the channel. I was wondering if you can unfold the secrets of the rubik's and how it is made and maybe 3d print your own in a personalised way. It would be amazing and so cool.
I just discovered your channel and i love your in depth look at things. And OMG those Phone cases are amazing. I'm looking to buy my first printer and i'm on a budget. I'm leaning towards the Tevo tornado. Any thoughts on the Anet E12? i'm headed to your website next. Thanks again.
I’ve been binge watching all your videos because I ordered my 3d pen yesterday and it’s coming tommrow so I’m getting ideas and learning👍 also great video dude🤗
Having watched this vid and seen the great quality of those prints, I hope I won't be disappointed with my first 3D printer when it arrives. Hehe, but I know I won't due to all the good reviews the Tarantula has received. edit Oh and I subbed 50% for the vid and 50% for the tiger!!
Nice review! I feel so spoiled having been 3d printing for about 3 years now and never having to level a bed on my Lulzbot mini, then again 3 years ago that set me back $1200 for small 6 inch cube build area. I want a cheaper and bigger printer as well, but I keep getting pulled in by fancy new features like all the cool stuff on the Prusas, that self leveling / centering and quad filament setup has me drooling so much!
Hey for your next vid would you consider reviewing the monoprice select v2? I received one as my first printer an would love to see a review of it from you, as what I've found online isn't all that helpful and I'm struggling just a teeny weeny bit. Or could you do a "beginners guide to 3D printing" type thing? Then you could make a more broad series regarding people who are new to printing, cause a channel such as yours probably attracts a lot of them (I mean this in a good way). If you read this, just know that I love your channel so much and that it is one of the main reasons I've gotten into 3D printing. Thank you!
did you change your intro music? Or is it just because I can actually hear it on my new headphones? Oh, and seriously, you should consider an acrylic build plate for pla or flexibles. Because it'll flex, it makes popping prints off really easy :)
Mine arrived about a week ago, had to order the EU plug one because the US plug code expired. Works just the same, even came with an EU to US adapter but I just ended up using an extra weird face plug to mains outlet adapter I had laying around. Took less than an hour to get my first print running. It prints TPU more reliably than my Wanhao I3. I did a 10 hour print using sainsmart tpu at 35mm/s with 0 issue at all, even accidentally didn't disable retraction and still worked. Great printer, I plan on replacing the stepper drivers with Trinamic 2130s to make silent.
Also the SD card that came with it was trash and some files would just make the printer restart because of it. Fixed it with a cheap 4 dollar SD card from frys.
Hello! Also became a lucky owner of the Tornado and several questions appeared at once: 1) How to change the filament from one color to another? 2) Is it possible to do this when printing? If possible, then how to move the extruder from the model, fill another filament color, return the extruder to the print position and continue printing?
Very interesting. Especially the last part where you used a piece of glass. My Flsun Delta's build plate broke trying to scrape off a project. Yea Broke. 3 plastic screws holding. I'm returning it. I leaning toward this tornado and I appreciate your video.
You could totally create a large ocean scene with some sort of sea creature attacking the tons and tons of benchy prints you've made, after all, you've gotta have quite a few at this point. Plus you already have a large whale model as well :)
Thx for the review. I've been looking at picking up the CR-10 or the Tornado and this review helps. I did have a question for you. Were you, did you, experience any salmon skin in your prints? In many places I see that this is happening often and most recommend installing smoothers. Any thoughts?
To agree with your comment on the bed, my Wanhao, with a 3mm (yes, 3.00mm) pei sheet, I practically need a hammer. Both on the old school 4 point manual level, and the newer able added.
Love the review! If you had to choose between this and the cr10 for printing things like polycarbonate, do you think this printer could do it out of the box?
I don't know if it'll work on that build surface, but when I want to remove particularly stubborn stuck prints on PEI, I spray a little bit of rubbing alcohol on the edges of the print. Doing this with PLA will have it almost instantly self release, and doing it with PETG makes the removal super easy, even on large surface area prints.
With a PEI print surface you can add a thin layer of glue stick to make removing prints much easier, also making sure the bed has properly cooled can make quite a difference. I think you should print another matching vase and you could turn them into earrings!
Wow that's a great website!! Especially the favorites section. Do you think you'll ever collab with a more comedy-based channel like Simone Giertz or William Osman? I loved the Bop It video.
How come the prints in your videos always look better than other reviews I see? Even reviews on the same printer... Are you using certain settings to make them look smoother? Prints always look super imperfect on other videos, like stripes all the way down the side of a print. Is it the plastic you use? The speed? Layer height? If anybody knows, please tell me!
Amazing video! Im trying to use this video to convince my dad we should get it. I already have a Monoprice MP Select mini V2, But, The build plate isnt really to my liking. It easily tears and then we have to replace it. But this tevo looks great. Thanks for the video!
I have owned a Tornado for a little over 3 months now, I have to say it does print well when it works but it suffers from being built with poor quality components and I have had several issues because of that. Some examples are: -The controller box knob was poorly made, had to be removed to properly use the rotary encoder -The bowden tube connector failed, rendering the printer unusuable - had to purchase replacement myself -The kapton tape used on the hot end pulled apart, leaving the hot end uninsulated - purchased aluminium tape to solve this -The controller box fan is failing already (grinding sound) -The 8 pin connector for the hot end harness pulled apart because of poor quality -Tevo made a revision (around november 2017) to their board using cloned stepper drivers component that no longer works with diode smoothers Some of these issues are minor, it just gives an overall impression of poor build quality. I've contacted Tevo regarding these issue and got no response (in over a month), therefor you can expect to purchase this "as is" with no support or warranty from the manufacture. The facebook group often speaks of their lack of support aswell. That being said, it's a great entry level printer and a good learning experience if you have the patience to troubleshoot and deal with quality related issues. It makes for a nice foundation for upgrades if you're willing to spend it's price equivalent on upgrades.
Thanks for the very comprehensive review. I haven't got a printer yet. Would this be a suitable choice for a first printer for someone with reasonable technical aptitude? Thanks again.
Thanks for the review; I found one of these on craigslist and searched for a review and found your video that way; very useful and actionable information. I have wanted a 3D printer for a good while now; but have been slow to pull the trigger since there is so many models out there; the one I found come with the following items for $350: Raspberry Pi with Octopi. Web cam. All required cables and connections. All original items shipped with Tevo included. Several rolls of filament. Case and 3.5 inch touch screen included with Raspberry Pi. Bed leveler attachment. What would you say; is fair market value? I am still trying to get smart in this area; I build and create a lot; and offen have to make my own parts or try to find something to modify to fit the need. I am also interested in the material used to make the parts, and what there tolerance is for heat, strength and weather. Any information is helpful .. thanks. Peace
What is your first layer height? AFAIK for all buildplate surface sheets like yours the first layer can not be lower than 0.2mm. I usually print at around 0.22-0.25 for the first layer depending on the surface area. Your logos might have needed 0.3 - 0.35mm.
How about doing another 3D printer review for 2019. Maybe, The top 5 printers of 2019. I am going to buy a 3D printer and your videos have helped me understand and I now have more knowledge of how they work. Is a £500~£600 a good budget for a mid range 3D printer ??
Something that I think is quite unfortunate about 3D printing is that most of the filaments are only available in really gaudy and over-the-top colors. Great video as always!
OH NO, the hair clipper! Don't tell Wayne's always faithful trusty companion, Garth. As we all remember from the first movie, Garth had some issues with hair cutting. Also, if you turn the vase, into a lamp, and get drunk, you can also use it as a hat later on! Just kidding. Thank you for your reviews.
What if you turned a smaller version of that blob vase into a camera flash diffuser for photography? I would imagine it would both diffuse the light nicely as well as possibly cast some cool shadows
Can you print using carbon fiber filament using the Tornado? Can you also print using a wood filament with the Tornado? If not what would you have to modify to do so?
Down to a Science i have a dremel 3d45, awesome printer only think is the bed is too small, I want one with a bigger volume, I don’t know if a cr-10 or the tornado but I do like the tornado’s color
At what speed we're you printing these prints? I print on my tevo tornado at 60 mm a sec, and just a small portion of the print had tons of ripples, and bumps, but the rest was perfect. Can you explain this?
Damn cool Devin, That´s my next Printer , coming Nov. (I hope) so I can finish my Johnny Five Project .. Oh and make a Lamp Shade that would look cool when you turn the Light off :-))
Have you tried using alcohol + water spray? I spray that stuff onto my glass surface and immediately I hear some cracking because the part is starting to come off the build plate.
Can you wait for the part to cool, then quickly turn the heated bed back on (heats up quickly I've heard) to get the part to release easily? I don't have a heated bed on my printer, but I saw someone recommend that once.
I am going to purchase a 3D printer but I have never even seen one except in several of these videos. I want to make some simple parts. The problem is I have no idea where to start after the purchase. I have thought of machining a part and then scan it then print it. I have tried to use CAD but did not get along with that program very well. Any ideas would be appreciated!
Hello! Just found this review of the Tornado. I'm looking into my first endeavor into 3D printing and wanted to ask you some advice/suggestions. I am really wanting an SLA resin printer kit in the 2k range like the peopley moai, for the resolution you can get. But I am thinking starting with FDM to get started now and more quickly due to cheaper costs, learn more about tuning, G-code, slicing ect and would an more affordable way to get this experience. Do you agree? or do you think SLA is an entirely different daemon, and if I want to go that route..just to wait a little while and start there? I consider my self software and tech capable so I consider these challanges ...part of the experience. I plan on using these printers mainly to print components for my other hobbies, Rc hobbies..planes/drones, shooting sports, miniatures, house hold DIY items ...nick nacks for the kids ect. What would you do if you had to choose a route?
I would agree that you can learn a lot from FDM before getting into SLA. Sure they have their differences but there's also a lot that you can transfer over. For the hobbies you mentioned you might actually find FDM more useful as I think it's more appropriate for functional parts
Make Anything . Thanks alot. although I think it would be great to make finely detailed minis, if I'm honest I primarily will be making functional items... tornado it is. thanks
Thank you 🙏💚🤘✌ I ask me to the 3D Printer world, but when I save up I do plan on buying this model (possibly threw Amazon). But either way, great video, I plan on making models myself and creating a career with it. Sending positive vibes✌
Do you know if it's possible to countersink the screws and mount the build plate it like it should have been mounted in the first place? Also if the layer height is .002 wouldn't you use a .002 feeler gauge and not a .007? How come you use .007, I think most use a .002?
I've never owned or used any 3D printer, would this make a good first buyer purchase? I've seen where there are a few mods that need to be made for it, like adding a cooling fan and some other minor stuff. But really no other real complaints about it.
It's definitely a solid choice out of several options. Like I mentioned, you can compare minor differences and decide what's best via makeanything.design/favorites
Can you put in a link for that little bump for the switch since I am not the greatest at doing those things I and I believe other people would prefer that then having to do it there selves and go through a while of stuff.
Great video, but why do you put glass on it knowing that it has a heated bed? The heated bed is useful only for specific filaments? Like, if i put the glass plate, i would have to relevel everything each time i take it (the glass plate) off to use a special filament? Someone answer please
LOVE to get one. If you could actually get the damn thing. Took my money almost a month ago and since it's been "so sorry, back ordered but next week for SURE", except for sure never happens. I'm trying to tough it out but irked they took my money with no product to deliver. I'd cancel but at this point I'm guessing it would take months to get a refund anyway.
Printers like this look good but I prefer big brands like creality and prusa Edit: if you are watching this in 2021 or later I just got the cr6 se 3 days ago and after fixing my slicer the prints are coming out great
So i may be upgrading to a bigger printer soon...torn between cr10 and tevo...which is best for the money..i want consistent reliable machine... thanks
Do you have any videos regarding that feeler gauge? I use paper, and the slide and grab method, but I never know how the paper should grab. Was that spray glue to hold the glass down, or to stick the print ( at the end)?
No feeler gauge video specifically, but it's pretty easy to use. You just take the gauge with the thickness you want (I used 0.076mm) and adjust the bed until it just barely slides under. The spray was hairspray which helps prints stick.
My 2 Tevo Tornados are still rocking prints! Bought them brand new in 2017. Truly a great machine.
Sorry about the shaky footage.. a vicious tiger somehow made it into my garage and was carefully stalking me. I was very nervous.
Haha

Thank you for all of the effort you put into your website and in your video!
Thank you for your comment, As far as I know, TEVO hot bed is 220V voltage can be heated quickly, but leakage is fatal to people
I removed the sheet and I now print on the pure glass and it workes perfectly
Keep your bed at 35-40c to remove parts! At room temps it's surely stick like crazy. Give it a try, it saved my PEI bed from "glued" ABS (buildtak is quite similar to PEI)
I started a print of the spool holder, that came with the printer, using PETG and it stuck fast.

Wow great job I was amazed by how well it works
Your website “favorites” tab is the thing I needed right now.
Hey love the channel. I was wondering if you can unfold the secrets of the rubik's and how it is made and maybe 3d print your own in a personalised way. It would be amazing and so cool.
I just discovered your channel and i love your in depth look at things. And OMG those Phone cases are amazing. I'm looking to buy my first printer and i'm on a budget. I'm leaning towards the Tevo tornado. Any thoughts on the Anet E12? i'm headed to your website next. Thanks again.
Thanks :)
I haven't tried the Anet E12 but I would say avoid it because the company is known to cut corners when it comes to safety!
I’ve been binge watching all your videos because I ordered my 3d pen yesterday and it’s coming tommrow so I’m getting ideas and learning👍 also great video dude🤗
Having watched this vid and seen the great quality of those prints, I hope I won't be disappointed with my first 3D printer when it arrives. Hehe, but I know I won't due to all the good reviews the Tarantula has received.

Oh and I subbed 50% for the vid and 50% for the tiger!!
I have never thought about a 3d printer b4. But after watching your fantastic videos I am thinking about buying one now thx your Welcome
Nice review! I feel so spoiled having been 3d printing for about 3 years now and never having to level a bed on my Lulzbot mini, then again 3 years ago that set me back $1200 for small 6 inch cube build area. I want a cheaper and bigger printer as well, but I keep getting pulled in by fancy new features like all the cool stuff on the Prusas, that self leveling / centering and quad filament setup has me drooling so much!
Lulbot mini is self-leveling, so why would you?
Hey for your next vid would you consider reviewing the monoprice select v2?

Hey Devon. How long did that bright green lamp shade thingy take to print? AWESOME video by the way.
Mine arrived about a week ago, had to order the EU plug one because the US plug code expired. Works just the same, even came with an EU to US adapter but I just ended up using an extra weird face plug to mains outlet adapter I had laying around. Took less than an hour to get my first print running. It prints TPU more reliably than my Wanhao I3. I did a 10 hour print using sainsmart tpu at 35mm/s with 0 issue at all, even accidentally didn't disable retraction and still worked. Great printer, I plan on replacing the stepper drivers with Trinamic 2130s to make silent.
Also the SD card that came with it was trash and some files would just make the printer restart because of it. Fixed it with a cheap 4 dollar SD card from frys.
That's awesome, I haven't printed TPU with it yet, but maybe I'll give it a shot!
Thanks, i've been looking around for 3d printers and your channel really helps out

Great review. Any safety issues with there being 110vac at the print bed? Also, was the discount supposed to last until Nov 30th? It's not working.
Very interesting. Especially the last part where you used a piece of glass. My Flsun Delta's build plate broke trying to scrape off a project. Yea Broke. 3 plastic screws holding. I'm returning it. I leaning toward this tornado and I appreciate your video.
You could totally create a large ocean scene with some sort of sea creature attacking the tons and tons of benchy prints you've made, after all, you've gotta have quite a few at this point. Plus you already have a large whale model as well :)
I do enjoy ocean themed pieces, dont I? :P
Thx for the review. I've been looking at picking up the CR-10 or the Tornado and this review helps. I did have a question for you. Were you, did you, experience any salmon skin in your prints? In many places I see that this is happening often and most recommend installing smoothers. Any thoughts?
+Mario Dongu I've heard the same but my prints have been fine.. I am printing pretty show though, 40mm/s
+Make Anything // 3D Printing Channel *slow
To agree with your comment on the bed, my Wanhao, with a 3mm (yes, 3.00mm) pei sheet, I practically need a hammer. Both on the old school 4 point manual level, and the newer able added.
So excited about the website!
First of all congrats on your channel. I want to know what did you apply to that glass pannel you used.
Love the review! If you had to choose between this and the cr10 for printing things like polycarbonate, do you think this printer could do it out of the box?
I've honestly never printed with PC, and I'm scared to heat up the nozzle to 300C haha
Never clicked a video so fast.
I don't know if it'll work on that build surface, but when I want to remove particularly stubborn stuck prints on PEI, I spray a little bit of rubbing alcohol on the edges of the print.

Haha those would rip some ears off! They might make nice earrings though, if they were much much smaller :P
Team earrings! My earlobes could hold em XD
I mean.... I'd never walk around wearing them, but for an editorial... haha
Wow that's a great website!! Especially the favorites section. Do you think you'll ever collab with a more comedy-based channel like Simone Giertz or William Osman? I loved the Bop It video.

I may get this from an upgrade for monoprice maker Select v2. It seems really good with zero print quality issues, with a few simple fixes
What is your first layer height? AFAIK for all buildplate surface sheets like yours the first layer can not be lower than 0.2mm. I usually print at around 0.22-0.25 for the first layer depending on the surface area. Your logos might have needed 0.3 - 0.35mm.

Your prints look amazing! Are you using simplify 3D? If so would you mind sharing your fff profile?
Nice review, thank you. Is there any chance you can share your slicer profiles? I’m interested to see what differs between yours and mine. Thanks 😊
OH NO, the hair clipper! Don't tell Wayne's always faithful trusty companion, Garth. As we all remember from the first movie, Garth had some issues with hair cutting. Also, if you turn the vase, into a lamp, and get drunk, you can also use it as a hat later on! Just kidding. Thank you for your reviews.
I love how you test printers by making vases. What do you even do with all these vases?
Definitely a lamp!
Can you make an adjustable spanner on one of your printers? One that actually functions?
Wow the hair clippers reminded me of discovering this channel and subscribing about a year ago
What if you turned a smaller version of that blob vase into a camera flash diffuser for photography? I would imagine it would both diffuse the light nicely as well as possibly cast some cool shadows
Excellent r3view! Would have bought this over the Tarantula in a heartbeat if it came out a year ago
What was it that you sprayed on the glass before putting it on the print bed?
Are you doing some type of video for the 3d printer fabric?
Yes! Most likely next week :)
Make Anything // 3D Printing Channel Yaay, can't wait! :D
IceManLT YEEESSSS I wanna see that too!!!
Can you print using carbon fiber filament using the Tornado? Can you also print using a wood filament with the Tornado? If not what would you have to modify to do so?
I think I like this better than the CR-10 for the green color. Like if you agree
Down to a Science i have a dremel 3d45, awesome printer only think is the bed is too small, I want one with a bigger volume, I don’t know if a cr-10 or the tornado but I do like the tornado’s color

I'm definitely planning to print some better custom clips ;)

Well print the glass plate too
I'm never going to buy a 3D printer but I love all your videos
Excuse me, can you tell me please wich software did you use for print in the tornado? thanks
At what speed we're you printing these prints? I print on my tevo tornado at 60 mm a sec, and just a small portion of the print had tons of ripples, and bumps, but the rest was perfect. Can you explain this?
How did you cut the glass? Is that a special tool or just a sharp xacto knife? Thank you
Damn cool Devin, That´s my next Printer , coming Nov. (I hope) so I can finish my Johnny Five Project .. Oh and make a Lamp Shade that would look cool when you turn the Light off :-))
Why does your Hotend assembly look bent? cool video tho :)
Have you tried using alcohol + water spray? I spray that stuff onto my glass surface and immediately I hear some cracking because the part is starting to come off the build plate.
Great idea to print a hair clipper guard. I really want to print some in between sizes.
Do you please have a link for the Vase at 9:04?
Thank u for the video, I decided at the end to add this huge print to my office :)
Hey Devin just a heads up all the images for that review chart are all broken and not showing up.
I’m thinking about getting the Monoprice Select 2 Mini, what do you think about that?
Can you wait for the part to cool, then quickly turn the heated bed back on (heats up quickly I've heard) to get the part to release easily? I don't have a heated bed on my printer, but I saw someone recommend that once.
Aye that seems pretty cool.
Can you try and review the form 2 printer. Their usa HQ is in my hometown and I got a free sample the part looks nice.
I am going to purchase a 3D printer but I have never even seen one except in several of these videos. I want to make some simple parts. The problem is I have no idea where to start after the purchase. I have thought of machining a part and then scan it then print it. I have tried to use CAD but did not get along with that program very well. Any ideas would be appreciated!
I think that it would just be a great decor peice on its own!
Hello! Just found this review of the Tornado. I'm looking into my first endeavor into 3D printing and wanted to ask you some advice/suggestions. I am really wanting an SLA resin printer kit in the 2k range like the peopley moai, for the resolution you can get. But I am thinking starting with FDM to get started now and more quickly due to cheaper costs, learn more about tuning, G-code, slicing ect and would an more affordable way to get this experience. Do you agree? or do you think SLA is an entirely different daemon, and if I want to go that route..just to wait a little while and start there? I consider my self software and tech capable so I consider these challanges ...part of the experience. I plan on using these printers mainly to print components for my other hobbies, Rc hobbies..planes/drones, shooting sports, miniatures, house hold DIY items ...nick nacks for the kids ect. What would you do if you had to choose a route?
I would agree that you can learn a lot from FDM before getting into SLA. Sure they have their differences but there's also a lot that you can transfer over. For the hobbies you mentioned you might actually find FDM more useful as I think it's more appropriate for functional parts
Make Anything . Thanks alot. although I think it would be great to make finely detailed minis, if I'm honest I primarily will be making functional items... tornado it is. thanks
Thank you 🙏💚🤘✌
I ask me to the 3D Printer world, but when I save up I do plan on buying this model (possibly threw Amazon). But either way, great video, I plan on making models myself and creating a career with it. Sending positive vibes✌
Have you tried the Ender-2? i'm curious what you think of it vs the Tevo Tarantula or the Anycubic Kossel
Sorry, I haven't
Thanks for replying! You have a great style. Keep up the good work.
Do you know if it's possible to countersink the screws and mount the build plate it like it should have been mounted in the first place? Also if the layer height is .002 wouldn't you use a .002 feeler gauge and not a .007? How come you use .007, I think most use a .002?
you should include some print times for printer reviews because that is a big factor for me
I've never owned or used any 3D printer, would this make a good first buyer purchase? I've seen where there are a few mods that need to be made for it, like adding a cooling fan and some other minor stuff. But really no other real complaints about it.
It's definitely a solid choice out of several options. Like I mentioned, you can compare minor differences and decide what's best via makeanything.design/favorites
Can you put in a link for that little bump for the switch since I am not the greatest at doing those things I and I believe other people would prefer that then having to do it there selves and go through a while of stuff.
Great video, but why do you put glass on it knowing that it has a heated bed?
The heated bed is useful only for specific filaments?
Like, if i put the glass plate, i would have to relevel everything each time i take it (the glass plate) off to use a special filament?
Someone answer please
Would you recommend me this as a first 3D printer? Or I should buy Anycubic Kossel Plus?
What measurement are you using with the feeler Gauges? Would 0.10 be suitable or 0.15? Great video and thank you.
(SUBBED).
It kind of depends on the printer but I like using half the layer height (so usually .1 mm)
LOVE to get one. If you could actually get the damn thing. Took my money almost a month ago and since it's been "so sorry, back ordered but next week for SURE", except for sure never happens. I'm trying to tough it out but irked they took my money with no product to deliver. I'd cancel but at this point I'm guessing it would take months to get a refund anyway.
Just increase the distance to the build plate if you think it sticks too well!
That heatbed actually saves a Bunch of my Prints because The nozzle was catching
Hello, nice video! Question: what is the base printing speed of the Tevo? Thanks!
It depends on how you tune it. I usually print at a nice but safe speed of 50mm/s
Are they actually called "feeler gauges" or is there a more technical term? That seems like a very helpful tool.
+Riley Hudson as far as I know that is the technical term. Very helpful indeed!

Thanks! I just got one on Amazon.
Printers like this look good but I prefer big brands like creality and prusa
Edit: if you are watching this in 2021 or later I just got the cr6 se 3 days ago and after fixing my slicer the prints are coming out great
haha the picture he showed for the cr-10 is actually the anet e12... shows how many printers look identical
So i may be upgrading to a bigger printer soon...torn between cr10 and tevo...which is best for the money..i want consistent reliable machine... thanks
For the vase I think it would make a beautiful hanging lamp
Do you have any videos regarding that feeler gauge? I use paper, and the slide and grab method, but I never know how the paper should grab. Was that spray glue to hold the glass down, or to stick the print ( at the end)?
No feeler gauge video specifically, but it's pretty easy to use. You just take the gauge with the thickness you want (I used 0.076mm) and adjust the bed until it just barely slides under. The spray was hairspray which helps prints stick.
Thank you.
Wow if I had the money I would defiantly buy it!
What filament would you recommend for a first transparent filament? Regarding price to be lower but not too cheap?
You should get the prusa mk3 when it’s released and review it
You should try and use the vase as a ceiling lamp
