      ​@@scifimodelshop I 100% think you can have this opinion. However, take my 2 cents.
      Say this is your livelihood. Company A makes 2 printers. Company A sends you said printers. You take them into review, you leave an awful review publicly trashing it and say you should never buy from this company. Now imagine Company A turns around and their printer 3 is truly a good printer. They may no longer want to work with you despite having a good product. You lose out on a ton of money.
      On the other hand, you can leave a more balanced review, professionally point out the flaws, do not sensationalize the issues, give helpful feedback, and maintain a relationship with the company. Now when printer 3 comes out you can have a brand deal. It's a tough balance between how you want to present things and the relationships you want to maintain. This occurs between people too. Money or no money involved.

    As a V2.4 owner, I think anyone who wants to build one at this point should just get a Sovol SV08. Replace the ABL probe to one that isn't so heat-sensitive and throw on a different hotend. Sooo much of a V2.4 is already there that it doesn't really make sense to spend 2-3x the cost to get a box of parts and still have to 3D print most of the motion system.

  • @rcpilotjohn
    @rcpilotjohn หลายเดือนก่อน +23

    If you are not connected to the Sovol SV08 Facebook users group and the chat associated with it, one of the moderators Felix is designing a high end, high flow replacement hot end that will use easily available standard nozzles including hardened, the stock heater and temp sensor, and slide into the stock cooling fins. This solves the primary issue with that printer (and the upcoming tool changer).

      @@Duckferd It is possible to put any Voron toolhead on it, but you have to replace the toolhead board with an EBB36 and modify the printer.cfg
      The fix from Felix will be much easier for people that don't want to make such large changes to their machine.

    • @rcpilotjohn
      @rcpilotjohn หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      And the key is the tool changer that will use multiple stock toolheads to do multi color printing with minimal waste. While other toolheads may work in that, the docking mechanism will be designed for this one and the slip in hot end parts will make that robust. The design uses a far better linkage between the two parts than the soldered joint that is creating issues for some people.

    I'm about two weeks now into owning a Bambulab X1 Carbon with AMS. So far, it has been terrific. I hope I don't encounter the issues you did! This technology is jaw-dropping for me. I've only had one previous printer, a "Mendelmax 1.0", that I built from self-sourced parts 12 years ago. Compared to modern printers, that old bed-slinger feels like a horse-drawn wagon! I've printed PLA, PLA+, PETG, and ABS so far, all completely successful. This has made 3D printing fun again!

    Good Afternoon Jonathan, I see you're still running an Alpha build Positron, many of the issues you have outlined have been fixed in the latest revision. We can get you the parts needed to upgrade it as needed.
    For context; Bed Leveling has been fixed with a Z_Endstop that makes homing more reliable. The heating issue is caused by the original alpha clip not being tight enough against the hotend, this has been fixed in release. Additionally, the Z Belt has been re-designed to be more reliable as a whole.

    My first printer is a Neptune 4.
    Installed linear rails on all axis and that did bump up the performance when it came to that proverbial first layer.
    Unfortunately having issues incorporating an input shaper which I know would take this little bed slinger up a couple of notches.
    Now I also have a FLSUN V400 which I use an input shaper on.
    Yes, it is heads above any bed slinger BUT most do not like the round plate.
    Has advantages and disadvantages.
    With modified cooling on the extruder (5015 over the stock) allows me to peg out the cost effective Elegoo PLA+ that I use.
    Remember, to take advantage of all these speeds you will need to use higher priced high speed filament.
    The Neptune 4 is for prototyping.
    The V400 is for production. Also it is a dream when doing filament changes.
    Yes, should you need the fancy prints Bamboo has the printer.
    Should you be looking for that first printer and just maybe a second one IMHO the V400 with slight mods is a good choice and value.
    Cheers.

    Always liked 3d printing since a few friends got Ender 3s from Microcenter when they did their $99 deal. Would ask them to print stuff for me I used in some of my content. Then my brother-in-law who lives with me came home with a Ankermake M5 about a year ago. Really liked that printer, but it wasn't the easy-button of printing I was looking for, though it was VERY close. Between FT job, daily responsibilities, content creation, and other stuff that takes up my time...i really dont have time for tinkering on printers. Then the A1 came out and the rest is history. Even my brother in-law hopped on the Bambu Lab train and bought a X1 Carbon. So now my studio/office has an Ankermake M5, Bambu Lab A1, and X1 Carbon all lined up on one of the desks in there. Its awesome to see them all running. Brother-in-law also has an SV06 Plus he's hot rodded with mods, and added Klipper to, that his school provided (fabrication school, currently in the digital design courses).
    Ever play around with the Ankermake M5? Any thoughts? There doesnt seem to be alot of confidence in Anker's 3d printing business going forward since the cancellation of their multi-color thing. Comments of "Bambu Lab is what Ankermake was supposed to be" that I see has me feeling that Bambu Lab might buy their 3d printing business out...but thats just speculation. I think Anker is too big to let that happen lol.

    I bought a QIDI XMAX-3 which I saw flash by in the voron section in your video. Saw the comments below about why it wasn't included in your LTR. I think mine is fantastic, best performance of all my printers. I even have a MAKERBOT T.O.M. from 2010 (Sailfish and Replicator G USB connect) that still works and a MAKERFARM i3 12" (300mm Marlin with Slic3r and Pronterface for control USB connect) with an itty bitty dual flexstruder upgrade I put on myself. Both use 3mm filament and I have never used an SD card or USB to print a file. The QIDI is by far the easiest to use of my 5 printers and the highest quality, not to mention the speed and huge build volume. I print most of my objects with ABS so need the heated chamber. There are cool spots in the chamber but I just move the model around to avoid them. Klipper is great with the network connect. I especially like the "IRON" feature in the QIDI slicer version of slic3r. Have not noticed any maintenance issues yet - other than the fact that those 1.75mm reels seem to get eaten up quickly.

      I'd suggest looking into a print that changes where the filament loads into the ptfe tube, it's on the x,z normally but at the start of a print when the machine does its thing it'll pull some filament from the roll then go back down causing a tangle. Unless you got the ams lite then ignore all that lol

    It's interesting to me you've had so much success with your A1 minis. Mine has been a nonstop string of problems. Especally on AMS prints. Massive layer shifts on all axis, the AMS purging system is abysmal, the toolhead smacks things off the print bed constantly because the Z offset calibrates itself and then is too low... probably 20-25% of my prints fail on that machine. Especally multi color prints.
    My friend has a full sized A1 that works great, and now hearing about your X1 Carbon issues, I wonder if Bambu Labs just has really bad QC and sends out a lot of lemons.

    There are primarily resin channels - so I don't see why it wouldn't do well :D It is it's own area though :D
    What I see rarely with resin are functional prints. They print quite precises stuff but personally I have tons of issues with warping and breakage on resin prints. I'd love content that prints functional stuff in resin, that would normally be better on FDM. I have recently had a commission for airsoft parts - and my FDM was not yet in the office. So I ended up printing it in resin only to hear it broke while screwing together by the client.... I had to reprint that about 4 times by the end of it the profit was about 10 bucks before tax :D And had to do it on FDM. So it would be positively lovely to see functional prints in resin

    I gotta apologize, a few videos I had said I hadn't heard you be critical of products, especially provided products. It's clear my memory and perception was wrong. Of course it would be impossible for anyone to prove there is no influence because of free products and relationships, but I definitely underestimated the number of times you fairly criticized products.
    On a separate note, I am really interested in the slunaz ff1r filament joiner. It looks like besides making sure you can use remainders of filament, you can produce some really cool aesthetic effects. And the video coverage of that device is very limited.

They are not directly on top of each other but are slightly offset and separated by a 1mm wall. When I try to slice it I get a warning that there are floating areas and if I try to print it, it doesn't stick to the plate. If I enable supports it changes the object. It gets all kinds of stryations and puts supports underneath the object. What am I doing wrong and how do I correct this? I can send pics if neeced.

    For whatever it’s worth, in the industrial equipment world (like tractors, generators, etc), it’s typically thought of that 3,000 hours of run time is its effective life and the max that a lot of people will keep a piece of equipment. Past that and you should expect to rebuild engine, hydraulics, etc.
