I also like this about Zac, though with the sponsorship from Bambu Labs, it is probably a requirement, a way of getting people to buy a Bambu printer. I am in the process of deciding what printer to purchase as well. We have 2 carbon x1s at work and if they didn't squirrel away the password for it i would just use them there, but would have to find out their schedule since they do print stuff overnight sometimes.

[@ZacBuilds]

I definitely believe others can do these projects. I'm just a dude with a love to tinker and no formal training haha.

[@ZacBuilds]

@@Ez-sk8ig For clarity, I was under no requirement to share the files as part of my contract. I just recently found out about Makerworld (im out of the loop, clearly) so I wanted to try it out and show it as an option for anyone looking to find 3d print files online. All Bambu asked for was that I talk about the printer for 1 min and then show it being used for 2 mins. They gave me 0 notes on this video and asked for 0 changes from my initial draft.

What's even more interesting about the PlayStation's history is that Sony really didn't want to make it. After the falling out with Nintendo, the board pretty much washed their hands of home consoles, and for them, that was that. If I remember correctly, Ken Kutaragi worked on the prototype in secret (with support from his boss) and was eventually able to convince the board to make the product. It's definitely interesting as you don't usually think of a Japanese salaryman as "being rogue" like that as the work culture normally pushes the idea of falling in line.

[@NavneetRao]

That reminded me of the story of how the blue LED was invented! Another Japanese salaryman going rogue with support from his boss (well, his first boss at least). I think Veritasium did a story on this.

I believe the gameboy was also a secret project that Nintendo's higher ups didn't really have much interest in or support for

You will be surprised to see how many japanese salarymen go behind the top brass's back to develop a project they are passionate about. Japanese are passionate people, and don't abandon stuff easily if they are interested in it.

[@BrunodeSouzaLino]

And this is also one of the reasons why the PS1 was build to be as cheap as possible. Even the use of CDs was more so it could play VCDs and Music CDs. You see a similar thing with the PS2 being able to play DVDs and even having a dedicated remote for that.

[@dylanevans5644]

It's worth noting that 12v was removed from the USB power delivery spec after 1. So if the wall adapter only supports PD 2/3 then it won't output 12v, it shouldn't cause any harm and will just default down to 5v, but it's caught me out before when using those USBC triggers. Also - I'm sure you know this, but the wires you are using to go to you ESP32 controller are way WAY thicker than they need to be.

[@CyanoTex]

Better thick than thin?

[@ZacBuilds]

Was it removed or is it just optional? Ive found 12v support to be spotty from adapter to adapter with no real rhyme or reason to it and that's why I include the link to the one I know works whenever I mention it. And yes haha I know, but that was the only gauge i had in many different colors

[@ZacBuilds]

@@CyanoTex Yes. Definitely.

[@dylanevans5644]

​@@ZacBuilds you are correct, 'optional' is the right word to use, saying it was removed was incorrect. Who knows why, 12v is such a useful voltage and so common.

You should also mention that with PPS it was technically added back in. Since PPS allows any Voltage between 3 and 20V.

Let him finish the contract. Then he can cut them off.

[@timderks5960]

​@@Keasbeysknight Honestly? I can't blame them. My work has a pretty large part of customer service in it, and the stupidity of humans is simply unfathomable, so that means that Bambu support is probably busy diagnosing issues caused by undisclosed mods or 3rd party software A LOT. The main benefit of a closed system is that you have limited possibilities for issue sources, which saves a lot of time. Thinking they will control what filament can be used is laughably stupid honestly. Nobody in their right mind would ever think that's a good idea, not even Apple would be that arrogant, and that says a LOT. My guess is that Bambu is doing this temporarily, because they notice they simply can't keep up with support. Instead of investing in more support staff, they simply decided to reduce the amount of incoming support tickets this way. Also, just because Bambu turned more towards closed source doesn't mean AT ALL that they're gonna fail. Apple has the most idiotic limitations and is more securely closed up than gitmo, yet so many people absolutely love it. I am personally disgusted by Apple because of their arrogance (doesn't make their products bad though), but for my 3D printer I'm perfectly fine with having it closed source, as long as it works well. I don't need to mod my printer to have a fancy screen, if I wanted that I would've bought an X1. I don't need to mod it to be faster, it's fast enough. My printer is a tool, not a project. As long as it does its job, I'm good with that. And finally: If Bambu goes down the route of closing everything down, it's just a matter of time before they get opened up by hackers and you can mod them just as much as you'd mod an Ender machine.

[@ZacBuilds]

I was initially disappointed by the breaking news about Bambu (even though it would have zero affect on my own personal workflow), but it seems as if they are already responding to community feedback and making changes. Obviously I'm biased, but I think it's worth reading this blog post: blog.bambulab.com/updates-and-third-party-integration-with-bambu-connect/ It adds a lot of clarity as well context around this controversial update. I'm optimistic that support for 3rd party slicers and mods will find a way to flourish despite these security updates. Also, I selfishly want to make a video about modding my X1C to the limit, so I'm very much vested in 3rd parties being able to develop both software and hardware for Bambu Printers.

[@mjd3879]

Zac I hope you tackle the Sega Saturn. I know it's not as popular as a console and I think that would make it fun, as well as put eyes on it. I just bought my first one from Japan for $80 and my ODE was only $110, so $190 for a barebones entry into the world of Saturn's awesome games for fellow hobbyists would be awesome to shine a light on. Plus the saturn really benefits from a lot of mods to offset its various issues: aging power supplies, FMV capture mods, several interesting ways to go about the ODE, internal clock battery mod, etc.

[@ZacBuilds]

Id love to do a Saturn but I am slightly worried that because it wasn't as popular of a system the viewership wouldnt be as good. I do have a soft spot in my heart for Sega though, so stay tuned.

for future reference when not sponsored, if printing PLA, use PETG as the support interface, or do it the other way around. PLA and PETG do not fully bond to eachother and cost way less than support spools. For ABS use HIPS as that is what bambu abs support is anyways.

Kinda looks like your just heating up the factory unleaded solder to remove it. But you will have a much easier time with removing components if you add leaded solder and flux to what your trying to remove it will lower the melting point of the leaded solder and the flux helps protect the board and helps keep the solder from bridging.

[@subg9165]

unleaded? i would've thought most things would still be using leaded solder back in the 1990s, over a decade before unleaded became a legal requirement

There's a small issue with the short history segment at the beginning of the video: Sony also tried to pull a fast one on Nintendo.

As you said, Sony didn't just want to manufacture console hardware, they wanted to seriously enter the market.

A technique for smoothing out the surface of your 3d prints is to put it into an enclosed container with a small cup of acetone. Then introduce a little heat to vaporize the acetone & it will smooth out the surfaces. But you have to keep a close eye on it. Try it first with print failures to time the best results.

Hey man, appreciate the work done. This is 5th video I am watching you doing various upgrades, but I see that soldering skills haven't gone that far. There is a flux that can be used to decrease the melting temperature and to have better soldering for the components, also there are lots of more professional soldering irons that can be used to better control the melting temperature. During the upgrade, I saw the metal overheated or underheated causing it to look like a big spot instead of a shining ball.

The only way it could be better is if you kept the CD drive and allowed it to rip the discs itself.
