Great video thanks

Thank you sir your video helped me a lot. I will subscribe to your channel.

I bought this 3d printer for myself as a Christmas gift for 145 dollars on the Facebook marketplace. For someone who knows squat about 3d printing. I was printing my first figure within 20 minutes after downloading the app on my phone. Best 145 dollars I have ever spent. Thank you Ankermake for making this easy to use 3d printer. Anyone can use it.

This is very helpful, i think this works great as a beginner printer because it is easy to set up and use but you still have to learn a bit about the software so it sets you up for your second printer

I have a brief thought here... What if a lithophane was printed on a delta printer? There is no bed movement & image/product quality could improved b/c there is no bed movement with a delta printer. What if a side by side comparison standard XYZ printer movement (standard printer) vs a Delta RIg. I suspect the Delta will have better quality of product output. Just a thought... Again, thank you for wat you are doing! John

Irv... your are a gentleman, kind & benevolent. I throughly enjoy you work here. Stay well and rest content that you making a positive difference in our crazy & caotic world. You remind me of Bob Ross, the painter from PBS who loved to paint "Happy Little Clouds." THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU DO FOR THOSE WHO ARE MAKERS!

Thanks for sharing, I learned a lot from this.

You did good to use Orca, I have fought Creality Slicers for way to long and over the years have come to the conclusion that the Creality software is JUNK starting with their slicer, to their app for your phone to the cloud service. Junk, junk and more junk.

This was so helpful for fixing my filament not going in. Thank you 🙏🏻

Website no longer works.

This was a wonderful lesson for me. Thanks for your clear description of how to make a cookie cutter.

How did you 3D print this with the overhangs? I really like the way you explain how to use FreeCAD, perhaps you can do some tutorials on the 1.0 version! Anyhow Subscribed and Liked :)

Hi, I got my ankermake mC5, but when I print something that isn`t from the app or when I download it from the printer app it doesn`t work at all . I mess up and gets only spaghetti. Could please help me . thanks

In case no one has already told you, converting from PNG to SVG does not make it a vector. SVG is a container file, like PDF. Converting PNG to SVG just gives you an SVG file that contains a PNG image. It's still a raster image and is not going to scale any better than the original PNG would have. :)

I just came across this video because our son wants a Resin printer for Christmas. After doing research we decided to get him the Mars 4 9k along with the mercury plus bundle. We hope he likes it and will use it. I am also saving this video to send him after he opens it as a starter after reading all the directions. I also am going to try using it as well for D&D miniatures and such. I am much older but got into playing the game again after my son and his friends started playing it. Its much more fun with pieces you can move around on a battle map. All the info in this video is great and it covered some things that i did not think to need or even get but now we might need them. Thanks. And just because of this video i subscribed to the channel

I use a Zebra Z grip click pen parts as my pen kit to make turned pens. Total cost to make a turned pen is less than $3. Have you tried this method?

Thank you, the quality of your videos are very good! very educational, I am sure these videos take time and effort and I appreciate them.

I really like your channel. Your level of detail can't be found anywhere else that I have found. Thanks for helping me understand these machines.

First class video, many thanks.

Im glad to find this video. Had a couple of vase prints fail due to error ID10T. Thank you Dr. VAX!

very good explanation. Thanks.

Custom design case for Raspberry pi 5 / 4 or PI zero 2 W, could you guide on this please

Cura 5 inexplicably removed "fill gaps between walls" and "fill tiny gaps". You will now need to set the "Minimum wall line width" to achieve solid parts, this parameter defaults to 85% of the nozzle width

Because its under built, a micro set screw is bs. Ripped mine out after a month, mine dripped and leaked and nozzle always loose till it finally stripped. I had a stock hotend for a year with no ptoblems and this pos lasted a month.

BEST VIDEO EVER

When I sell on Etsy the customer pays shipping.

Etsy is very hard to sell on these days, with all of the sellers who drop ship or have someone else make it for them.

Not laser printer, laser cutter / engraver.

It is easy to fix the ghosting on this machine. The wheels are of very poor quality and have play in them. When I replaced them many of them fell apart in my hands. New wheels removed all play from the bed and print unit and print quality improved very much. Nice review!

how to add offset to text???

i need the 0.0.6 firmware for Ender-3 with v4.2.7 motherboard to be customised for the Ender-3 v2 with v4.2.2 motherboard

I am intend to buy a FISun and have one specific question about the building volume: i need to know if the printer is able to print a diameter of 37mm at a height of 322mm ? Due to the delta config i was reading that 260mm is limited to around 275mm and from there the max moving to the center.

Do ya still have this printer or use that one

Systems similar to gcode have been around for at least 50 years. Robot arms used in the 80s had similar instruction languages. Before printers were plotters which evolved into vinyl cutters and they came from the 60s. New tech evolves from old tech. We all owe our forbears respect.

nice explanation but for the people that just wanna know the settings its may to long

I was just curious if it was still possible to add your own SVG to this cookie cutter machine. When you go to select the sample it says "no available options".

Nicely done. I'm a total 3D newbie and I purchased this printer roughly two weeks before this video was posted. I've been loving just about every minute of the experience, so thank you for affirming that I made a good choice. That said, I did not have nearly the positive experiences with Creality filament that you did. One roll snarled all over itself repeatedly (in spite of being properly mounted and monitored) ruining several prints, and another had no bed adhesion whatsoever . .both of which are issues I've not experienced with any other brand of PLA so far.

I'm looking at a second hand machine as a noob. Good choice? What should I be looking for when I go to pick it up? Also, he says I'm getting just the printer w no tools or manual. Should there be tools? Guessing I can find the manual on line.

I was having a hard time, whatever I did. Clean, level, glue stick,… Now, as soon as possible, I’ll tape the skirt down and/or tack a half dozen points with glue while it’s printing. Right after the first couple layers. Been 100% success since.

do you have the run out sensor .STL, i would like to print one

How do you load the slicer studo on the linux cant down load says😅 mac and windows no mention on linux please help😢 on the ankermake 5c cant download the ankermake slicer studo on the linux opertaing system changed windows to linux

I'm watching this video 5 years after it came out, it's still is extremely informative and helpful for a beginner like myself.

In my case the model has some area in the middle that are close to horizontal or even horizontal. They are considered by the Slicer (in my case I have tried Cura and Prusa) as a top layer and if I set top layer as zero they become zero too and missing, So the next layers will be printed on nothing. Is there a solution that I can set zero only for the topmost layers? I haven't found a solution yet. Right now I do it by giving it 6 top layers and deleting 6 layers from the end of the G-code manually.

About the last technique which I use I have a question. In my case the model has some area in the middle that are close to horizontal or even horizontal. They are considered by the Slicer (in my case I have tried Cura and Prusa) as a top layer and if I set top layer as zero they become zero too and missing, So the next layers will be printed on nothing. Is there a solution that I can set zero Top only for the topmost layers? I haven't found a solution yet. Right now I do it by giving like 6 top layers and deleting 6 layers from the end of the G-code manually.

Great, after that long time, you can help out someone with Blender modelling in Vase Mode without Vase Mode. Thanks a lot

Your delivery and knowledge is great. You're teaching facts from experience and examples without trying to be clever which for my old brain is how I can understand and learn. 5 ***** thank you.

I wonder why Creality didn’t just add some spring rewind to the filament holder, surely that is easy enough and a properly engineered way to deal with the spare filament issue. Good detailed explanations, you really are achieving your goal of making useful information available. Now about the units, 22:47 300m/s is approaching the speed of sound in air. That is some fast printing. What is your opinion on the bed x movement at high speeds when the print gets tall, this seems like a weak aspect for a bed slinger? After your tower test it seems that it’s not a problem but does this need to be tested? I see that excessive retraction print you showed at the end was also printed at the speed of sound, I very can’t believe it ever got up to that speed, even if you meant mm/s

Late to the game but this is the absolute best run down I've watched yet. If you see this, thank you so much 😊

HELP... I have a creality 5 pro. I purchased an s1 hot end but the cables are only a few inches long. Can someone direct me to where I can buy the extension cables. I really really don't want to cut and splice such fine wires. I'm old and my hands are unsteady, and I don't have connectors.

How do you drop an object to work plane?
