Thanks for NOT hiding the failures and the drops. My heart broke to see Batman's demise. Mainly failures has been my experience until I sorted out a list to remember when using my Saturn 1 printer. 1. Make sure the supports are well done and dont' believe it when they say their supports work when you buy their models! Learn to do it your yourself. 2. When you rescale you have to redo the supports. You CANNOT rescale a model that is already supported! 3. Make sure you level correctly and 4. TIGHTEN those screws! If the build plate ios wobbnly your figures will have very long members. But just as I got good with that I bought Saturn 4 Ultra and I need to calibrate it now to start. Can you do the settings for miniatures both 18mm and 28mm? As well as larger models for your viewers? Ihave subscribed. I appreciate the effort you put in.

6:09 that particular bed level test print (grid ?) for the Neptune 4 Plus, where did you get it from ? I've looked everywhere and cannot find it. I am setting up my new Neptune 4 Plus today.

batman was a OH FUCK ! moment.....bummer

Thank you would you care to divulge the settings that you have sellted upon, or make a vidio on how you arrive at them

Your luck you got a mo th i got less than three weeks befor lcd death doing only moderate printing. Elegoos support has gone down hill. Can not recomed this printer in any way shape or form

After posting about the Nepturne 4 plus, I took a look at some of your other posts. _Good on you._ Yea, Sht happens! And always when others are watching. Resin printing is great for those ultra fine detail jobs, but I like the FDM printing whenever possible because there is a much larger range of plastics. And those resins are quite toxic. *Having said that,* here's something to consider _(if you haven't already thought about it)._ WITH GLOVES AND EYE PROTECTION GEAR ON, and a well ventilated area _(safety first)_ it is possible to manually paint on, *or dip FDM prints into a vat with resin in it.* Then with a portable, hand held UV light cure it. Do that as many times as you want. I have found this is a very good way to smooth out layer lines, and add structural strength to PLA prints. By "playing" with deviations on that idea, pigments can be introduced. Or simply paint the now smoothed FDM print. (watch out for drips on the job.) *BTW;* The economics of this work out well PLA per Kg is about $18AUD (bulk buy) and Resin (last time I got some) was about $35AUD/Kg _(These are in Australian dollars)_ Peace.

*Thanks for the info.* I have 2 Ender 3s, a Flashforge Guider II, and now 2 Elegoo Neptune 4 plus's. The first Neptune was purchased 2023-2024 Christmas and I got the second a few months later, they have been running almost 24/7. They are great machines with a decent build area _(320x320x385mm)._ After the usual firmware updates, the only issues I get are the occasional hot end blocking, and from time to time the carriages need tightening (as with most 3D printers). I print a lot of TPU and PLA (+/silk) with some PETG and _(Easy)_ ABS. I've been involved in the CAD industry for over 25 years as a professional software developer/drafts person, and now I love the idea that my ideas can become physically real with machines that are affordable and at hand. These machines are a great start, particularly since new engineering filaments are being developed all the time. _Like all technologies there will be a learning curve for the newcomers, _*_mainly in the drafting area if you want to design your own "stuff"._* (Otherwise "thingiverse" is a great free resource - but of course you are limited to other peoples designs.) _Peace._ *PS;* _Reading the other comments, I noticed they were having issues with the hot end. That is true after about 3 months continuous use for me, and it is a bit daunting to pull the head apart and fix. But is can be done. A simple hot-end/nozzle replacement will often fix the issue. But sometimes with TPU it can get wrapped around the internal gears or bunched up internally. That can also be cleaned out. Just don't lose the "micro" screws when fixing the problem, and have good lighting near by._

Hard to take your seriously when you look like a desk in detention

Excellent Video, thank you!

I wonder if they left the terrible ai cam the way it is to update it later and fix it little by little. I hope so

11:50 - If the Elegoo rook is offset from the center when curing, the bottom will be cured as well. There's a UV light strip on the bottom, but it doesn't reach all the way to the center of the rotating platen.

Ouch!

The 3 Ultra has a bigger build volume 🤷🏻‍♂️

Sorry to see your Batman go a-tumble. Might I suggest you try the Sunlu ABS-like? I use it as standard on my Saturn 3 Ultra, and it rarely fails. But more importantly, it's rock hard, and even falls like that will survive. When my current machine finally dies, I will be looking at the Saturn 4 Ultra. My only gripe is that vat looks like a bitch to clean.

I have a Neptune 3 Plus and its been a real pain. Printed so inconsistently. Printed great one day and you have to spend the next pissing about with either software or mechanical issue, let alone corrupt slicer settings. Now I do expect trouble (as a novice printer guy) but when looking at the Elegoo forums out there none are comforting as there are so many post by people who also state the inability of Elegoo printers to perform for more than a day or so without some failure that is not related to off set or bloody bed cleaning is just too common. I've two Elegoo printer bed plates, same size and same thickness yet if I swap them out between prints the Z off set is different the whole bed requires a re-level (0.17 on one and 1.65 on the other). I removed the two screws and stand offs, that hold the bed to the bed gantry in the middle, put in stronger and bigger springs and used nyloc nuts and not only did it solve the issue I got damn near perfect numbers when auto leveling. For the first time I have gone 4 days printing great prints without having to do anything but clean the bed and swap filament. I know they are entry level printers but that is no excuse for such inconsistency in performance. Christ I've had $500 cars get me around for 12 months before playing up.

just wait...I got good prints for a few months, then the nozzle started clogging every print. I have been thru 3 extruders and 2 additional hotends and haven't had a successful print in 5 months. I spent all day getting the thing set up in and then it clogs within the first few layers

Auto is the way to go

Wow man loved the video ❤

Amazing video dude, production quality has improved immensely! I want some cool 3D printed stuff! That skull looks siiiiiiiiccccccckkkkkkk!

Did bro actually kill his friend

Great video, have you bought any more wigs from the website?

I love these designs!

I'm not sure you should be trusted with power tools - NEVER put anything you wish to keep whole in the path of a saw blade. 😉 That said, I love the design of your shelf. I'm currently building a spray booth and I've been looking for a functional design for easy access to my paints. I do model trains mostly, but it's hard to ignore a few classic cars, spacecraft, etc. BTW, I also like your RGB keyboard, and love your ink!

"Painting it black,.....because of..... OF COURSE!" 🤣😂

Yes! Keep posting videos guys! You inspire us to do more crafty things around the house!

This looks incredible!! 😍😍😍

Love watching these videos each week 🥰

Dude, it looks fantastic!

Love a good clean up transformation! Great to see the speaker still works 😂
