Bambu Lab X1 Carbon 3D Printer in 2024. 🏆 6 Months Later Review.

[@kevin_delong]

Love the “raw” takes when reviewing filaments and the app section :)

[@Nickc582]

I just got one and OMG such an amazing machine just load the stl and it does everything hands down one of the best 3d printer for everyone

[@Nickc582]

And ya my last printer was the creality cr10s pro v2 with so many upgrades and the x1 carbon does everything no more tinkering to get the bed level

[@Nickc582]

And you can actually get 16 different colors if you get the hub and 3 more ams

[@RobertGlazier]

I've been using the Bambu Lab A1 Combo for 7 months now. I love it. I don't have a moister problem with my filament, because I live in Southern Arizona, 10-20% humidity. Thanks.

[@pirobot668beta]

20% Rh? Nice! Up here in Washington, we have a fair amount of rain and many bodies of water. A 'dry' day up here is 40-60% Rh. Fortunately, food dehydrators are cheap and mine can hold 8 rolls of filament. It runs hot enough to dry out silica-gel packs...or fuse an entire roll of PLA into a solid lump. Oopsie.

[@philiprowney]

🤣 [ never thought about such climates in England ] Bonus!

[@justinjohnson4920]

Your filament is more than likely brittle because of moisture. You need to dry your pla. Also I'd recommend sunlu pla. I've been using it this past year and it's great. It's much cheaper. Also you can use the bambu pla settings instead of generic and it's just faster and works great.

[@keithclark8030]

I am looking at this printer. Thanks for the review. I also would like to know about 3-D software as well.

[@miketollefson7536]

It is an amazing printer. However, as you mentioned in the video, you can not use 5 filaments at one time. You can only use the AMS by itself, or the external spool by itself.

[@irishrose89775]

You can do up to 16 colors at a time. You just need to add 1 or 2 more ams units!

[@benj4586]

Very nice review! I enjoyed the unedited filament section lol

[@dronecamps]

Thats how you know I'm not Ai! 😆

[@DinoByteSize]

The cuts were amazing

[@MEDiumInc]

And I mentioned before that it also has an app for live viewing and it records the videos down to the sd card on the computer cut GD-it Jeez. 19:40 Great Video. Loved the continuity error ;)

[@kyrkas2008]

Great review!

[@cloudyview]

And you kinda covered it, but I'm guessing the filament issue was mostly due to water in it.

[@AceKing8906]

I just bought one. I can't wait to get it!

[@becandscott]

@@AceKing8906 curious what your thoughts are?

[@owenauer3406]

If I have a power outage will the printer restart where it left off?

[@MajorTendonitis]

Great review . I think if I get into 3D printing,now is the time . Certainly looks like a great machine . Liked and Subbed

[@jimsdroneing]

great review justin just purchased x1c i want to sell 3d prints any idea where i can get 3d designs that are sellable not copyright

[@justinjohnson4920]

I'd recommend looking into pla cf. It's not very good. Plain ol pla is better for strength.

[@vixanis]

Hey man, I’m a studying dental technician and am hoping for a filament printer that is accurate enough to print dental models. I’m wanting a printer for home to study for my certification. Is this X1C the most accurate FDM printer I’ll find? I use a resin printer at work and would like to avoid the mess. Obviously the accuracy is awesome though. Let me know your thoughts :) Thanks

[@dronecamps]

I think for this price range yes. Resin is best for that. But home use this printer is the only one I need.

[@Fidebililah]

Can you use PET filament?

[@dronecamps]

Yes

[@cloudyview]

X1C has hardened steel for hot end and extruder gear - you can basically print anything, but gf/cf can't go in the AMS, since that's just plastic gears.

[@PhilHaddon]

At the beginning of the video I had a suspicion he didn't really know much about printing. Then he got the glue stick out ..... Confirmed!

[@dronecamps]

Lol. Confirmed! It's insane how many printers I have had in the past 8 years on this channel. Ive reviewed most of the Creality ones. Bambu makes nice stuff though.

[@sylvaingirard]

I think there's some editing missing :D

[@redshiftz8520]

Hmmm i got 5 of these and i have 4 voron siboors. the Voron Siboors are way more reliable, way more consistent good results. I dont rate the bamboo the best. If i were to start over again i would have just gone for all vorons. But the build time of the vorons is a lot. but they are so much more versatile, reliable and infinitely customizable, they also move with the times. My older vorons have been updated to the newer specs. So you never have to throw them away, you just upgrade them.

[@johntetreault]

For the love of God, stop smearing your build surface with glue. It's completely unnecessary.... The only reason you may need glue is as a release agent when printing PETG on the smooth Pro build plate. Otherwise...NO GLUE NECESSARY. I don't even own a glue stick.

[@TheTAEclub]

U let your 10 year old listen to taylor swift?

[@unit586]

Question brother, will there be a new X1 Carbon releasing? And should I hold off for a new model? Awesome review 😂 thanks bro!

[@dronecamps]

Not that I know of. I’ll email them

[@markdothething]

@@dronecamps did they respond?

[@cloudyview]

I don't think there will be any change to their existing printers. The next release will likely be larger build volume, multi-tool, multi-head, or some combination of those three. They've already handily covered entry through upper mid tier, but all at smaller volumes. The only thing that makes sense is larger, and/or multi-tool 👍

[@user-jh1mq2ih2u]

Sounds like end user errors
