3D Printer | Homemade - Part 2

[@therealoldnewb1716]

Nicely done till now. But there is one big fault, nearly everyone makes: When you connect an AC powercord to anything ... be sure, that the longest wire is the PE! (yellow/green, earth, ground ... whatever you call it) Because then, it will be the last one getting ripped off at any kind of physical influence to the cable! Your PE is the shortest one :( Not good man. If the PE is ripped off, everything still works fine. But when it comes to an short ... you have no protection! Touching for example the casing could kill you instantly or even a few hours later! (If you thing that's a joke ... google it) Keep that in mind. Everybody out there! I'm serious about that.

[@Seedx]

Thanks for telling me this

[@matthewduggan6616]

Cheers dude. Good advice

[@charimuvilla8693]

Shit only now I realized these wires go directly to the outlet. Honestly I would consider this as incredibly dangerous even if he puts the long one to ground. Any power supply that doesn't have a built in extension for the outlet secured with plastic is a death trap.

[@LT72884]

Yeah, you got a point. If a wire shorts out in that 20 amp psu, then yeah, it could kill you. Best way to protect is to use a gfci outlet. They pop at 0.03 amps.

[@LT72884]

@@paulbyerlee2529 yeah, 0.03 amps haha. Not 0.3 haha. Thanks for the correction

[@c1rash77]

Optional if using mega as a USB COMM (i.e Printing from computer) then Diode near thumb Needs to be removed. IF not removed then it may burnout ur mega board. Note Only remove if connecting and comm with computer NOT with SD CARD Underneath the the X,Y Drivers

[@shanefoster5305]

Zip ties are wobbly... Add a little epoxy and it will be more solid and more accurate!

[@josephhiluharari406]

One question, where did you get the aluminum from the back of the acrylic so that the printer can be raised and lowered?

[@BrainSlugs83]

That is the most hilarious hot-end mount I've ever seen.

[@ninllot]

7:57 ESO, ese intimo detalle me faltaba para que funcionara, ya que los motores solo hacían ruido y no se movían, GRACIAS

[@ThisDaniYT]

I trowing all of my screws and brackets through my window! Zip it! haha, good job, dude. Hey, take care of those AC cables.

[@PK-nv4on]

Very neatly explained... Thank you for your concern... You could have used some other method to fix the bush bearings to the platforms, instead the tags, which may get loose due to heat and over a period, resulting in unwanted play. 2. For aluminium frames may get loose and distorted shape over a period Ike the partition panes and doors. Leading to error in shape of the item. Araldite may be used to fix the joints.

[@NikhilSaini38]

This design has lot of play in it, also i think some parts will come loose soon

[@gigawattproductions3993]

I'm trying to build a printer, and this video was so useful! I am uploading videos of its progress once a week just waiting for parts. First one publishing I think in a couple of weeks due to other projects.

[@sulaimanfirdaus5342]

Link?

[@andrewkasza7282]

I've been thinking about building a printer, thanks for sharing your experience.

[@nateschmitz9827]

You should print mounting brackets for the x ganrty poles

[@manindraadhikary]

Thanks RZtronics for inspiring me. Soon i will be designing my own 3d printer. By the way the dimensions of RZtronics is nearly 17inx17in or u can make it of 24inx24in. I am making 3d printer but with different dimensions and the video will be uploaded soon. If u r interested than you can watch it in future

[@architjakhmola9458]

For all those who were search ing dimensions you can take any but bigger than 20inch. Steps uploaded to Arduino are same and take care heat bed placement settings. The base should be minimum 20×20inch (From base I meant to say the area where heat bed is fixed.) And height should be roughly 25inch(min) . Acrylic sheet mount should be taken in respect of stepper motors. That's all rest you can check. In video. He night not wanted to reveal the lengths or he knew we can take any.

[@japnanang4132]

But he's selling that parts.

[@jmz8086]

@RZtronics Very interesting build! I like that you are fabricating the majority of your printer's parts. You may want to come up with a different method of attaching the bearings though, there seems to be a lot of play and wobble in the axes movement. But I think if you fix that issue it would be a viable low-cost machine. Great content!

[@sebastianboyero5877]

It is a really cool project. It can work with a doble extruder?

[@garvsalwan230]

bhai ne kundi vale holder me hotend de diya nice vai jugaad to h actually aacha h sachme

[@markpretorius6854]

Good job. After watching all your videos I'm inspired. Please keep up the good work. 1 question, I want to build my 3D printer a little bigger, where about in the sketch program will I have to modify in order to set a 600x600x600 work space?

[@rickrose2235]

Tye-raps to hold the linear bearings thats not rigid enough & will make the 3D-prints sloppy. You could have instead used some plastic or copper u-shaped pipe holders. Also the sheet metal screws that go into the thin wall square aluminum tubing will loosen up over time causing more precision problems.

[@strontvliegable]

Does the power supply need to give 20 amps? and 240 watts?

[@cloroxbleach7837]

12v x 20A mean 240 W , i think 240w power supply is fine for this printer .

[@GrandpawB]

Are there dimensions and details of the build available somewhere? That would be really helpful.

[@GaryMcKinnonUFO]

Great stuff, thanks for sharing. Do you have drawings ion your website for where the holes go in the plastic parts for screws etc ?

[@nicoprezio3696]

I think its a REALLY cool project, but I think you wont get perfekt results out of that, cause of all the cable binders! ?😉

[@RZtronics]

Thanks for the Comment!! I have Modified the Printer and replaced the cable binders with Dedicated Hardware parts.

[@king1234114]

RZtronics please upload the 3rd part

[@ELMO7TARAMQ8]

Brother you are a beast :) Great work

[@AbdulKarim-fs5iw]

Nico Prezio my thoughts exactly... Using some well placed epoxi or mseal should add rigidity

[@nicoprezio3696]

Abdulla Karim , exactly!😀

[@vlamirvlamir1970]

Hello friend! Very interesting project you've worked hard. I have a question for you? how is the movement in the Z-axis screw rod M5 . What is the nut on the rod is.

[@someshsivakumar4101]

vlamir vlamir , I have the same droughts did u get the solution

[@omagrawal4045]

Hi, I am om, I was amazed by your 3d printer. I was thinking of recreating it for a college project but I am confused about the measurement of the aluminium channel frame. To make it perfect I need to start with basic things can you please respond?

[@JPSkriP]

Why not use industrial strength epoxy or liquid metal/plastic with hardener to affix the rod bushing/bearings to bed and extruder/hotend plates instead of zip ties? It would be more consistent, and accurate on prints. Zip ties would allow flex, yielding inaccurate prints later. Hope first things your printed where new mounting bits to replace zip ties

[@burakbilgin2798]

can you please give the measurements

[@DRDAnayavloing]

Bhai is machine ko kaise mobile se chalayen

[@leandrogoethals6599]

u rly love those plastic wrappers don't u XD

[@AlienWacker]

Just a suggestion - those zip ties holding the bearings to the motor mounts look a little wobbly. You might want to 3D print yourself some holders... Otherwise looks great so far! Looking forward to part 3!

[@spykespace]

Awesome build. Hope you did not have any issues while customs clearing.

[@ushamanna7775]

[@ianjanusz4109]

it takes balls to use zip ties in the ways you have in this video

[@bagelbytes69420]

One time my friend's dirt bike's rear sprocket bolts backed out on him when we were off road, and all he had were zip ties. We loaded that bitch up with like 10 zip ties per bolt hole, and that shit was SOLID. Wouldnt do it myself, but they were great in a pinch! Zip ties are amazing. Just felt like I should share :P

[@michaelt126]

@@bagelbytes69420 Zip ties do save lives. The point still stands, they take balls sometimes.

z axis is awful. too many ties

[@franciscobates]

Im a mechanical engineering student, my knowledge on arduino is basically 0, but I was cringing every time he used a zip tie or when he used the wrong tool for the job. That said I think the video itself is great so you can start your 3D printer with your own design. I came here to learn how to make an arduino based 3D printer and it worked just fine

Does it matter if the power supply is dc or ac

they actually seem to be pretty decent hardware, even if nobody thinks that. I mean, its in the prusa MK3, which is a pretty good selled printer

[@martinpanev6651]

My guess is that this is a "repstrap", something you make crappily and quickly out of easy to find materials so that you can use it to print out the parts to create another printer.
