Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

I will check when I get home from work to see if the file can be modified for your 3dJake plate, and will also find the link to another RUclipsr who has already done a great video on manually calibrating the Saturn 4 Ultra

@@makerscorner93 Thank you very very much cause I was also wondering about the foreign object sensor detecting the plate...maybe the gcode might solve that....

Apologies for the delayed response. I have looked at the script and it looks like it should be easy enough to modify as long as you know the thickness of your 3dJake plate using an application like "notepad++".

@@makerscorner93 which line of script has to be modified?

@@makerscorner93 hey ok so if I run the gcode (3djake flexiplate is 2.6 so I am going ot use FBSR gcode) I don't need to print a spacer correct?

Definitely not that quiet. This is easily the loudest printer I have ever owned. Even without the fans on, the linear motors make a lot of noise just by themselves

I think there is a way by modifying the "End Gcode" section in the slicer setting, but I'm not 100% sure exactly how to do it. Would be best to ask on one of the Facebook groups for someone a little more knowledgeable about those kinds of things.

It is slowly turning into a decent printer. Many people have reported having really good success converting the machine to use beacon instead of the load cell. The extruder on the other hand is still a bit of a mixed bag. Some people are getting extruders that work great, and others have one like mine which just doesn't work good at all. I know Peopoly has made a few changes to the entire tool head so it might be better now, but I don't have one of the new ones for testing yet. If you are ok with doing some tinkering, the printer does go on sale for $1599 quite often, so it might still be a viable option. I plan on making an update video eventually once I install my upgrade kit. Just haven't had time lately to mess with it

Considering how cheaply made adventurer 5m pro can work such reliably magneto x allready failed to take this market share

Thanks for the sub! I really appreciate it! It definitely is an interesting machine and I have a couple of fun projects I'm getting ready to use it for very soon. I saw your video printing my PTFE riser. Hope you like it! I'm not sure if the stock PTFE tube is long enough for it, but as long as you aren't using the full 400mm you should be fine (I replaced mine immediately as the early units came with a very low quality one). How well is your extruder working? Looks like you have one of the new ones. Looks completely different from mine which is one of the very early pre-order units.

My pleasure. That's for watching!

I find most of the people who say to stay away from flex plates are entitled elitists who believe that using such products are only for armatures who don't know what they are doing. The reality of it is there are plenty of use cases for flexible build plates on resin printers. Even for those of us who are very experienced. Moral of the story, people are close minded, crazy, and weird. So do what you want to do, and be happy with it! haha

@@makerscorner93 agreed, lol... I love a flex plate... dont have to worry about scratching the plate or cutting up my thumb when my scraper slips...

@@makerscorner93 1 last thing... you should really edit this video and recreate how to download and install the whambam code so that people can use a flex plate... im still finding zero vids and almost nothing about it other then a reddit post... this videos views would explode... add in links ect...

Wouldn't this void your Warranty?

@@zakspop for the most part no... but if you put in the wrong info in and the plate crashes through and wrecks the screen... then it probably will... but installing a flex plate won't void the warranty

I realized that right after I hit upload. I will try to add an annotation in the video to check the description for the link to the files. Good catch! I assume you have one on your printer? If so how do you like it?

yep... I used a knock off version but still used wham bams code edit... strongly recommend to those who use a knock off version to verify your plates thickness is the same as a wham bam tho

@@makerscorner93 Great video tho

Have you tried reaching out on the discord? I know the engineers are pretty active there. Might be worth trying if you haven't already. Believe me I know first hand how stressful this printer can be, but I have to give credit where credit is due and say that I have had great support from them. At least when going through discord. I have heard from a few people who tried emailing them with zero success until they tried going through discord. This is clearly something they need to work on!

Give it a bit of time. I am confident Peopoly will fix all the issues. From what I understand , most of the new units being sold now are working much better! Mine is finally working pretty well now too. I am planning on making a follow up video soon to share how my printer has been doing lately. Also as a side note, the Magneto X goes on sale quite often!

I'm sure you saw all the "Bambu bros" jump in to defend their beloved company. Haha.. It boggles my mind how people are so willing to just blindly defend a company that doesn't care about them at all, just their money. Don't get me wrong I do like and use Bambu Lab products, but I don't trust the company at all. People need to realize you can like and respect a product, without being a drone for the company that makes it.

I have spoken to a few people recently who have been getting good printers from them now with less issues than most of the pre-order units. That being said, they go on sale quite often it seems, so I would probably wait another few months. Peopoly is actively working on changes and upgrades. I actually just received my upgrade kit last week. Just haven't had time to install it yet.

Agreed. I am excited to see where they take the technology moving forward in their next attempt (assuming they even decide to make another FDM printer)

I can bet they will sell motion systems to all brand after they realise that cheap adventurer 5m pro can print that well, and creality k2 should be with chamber heater

Some people have had relatively good luck fixing the belt tension, but spend enough time in various forums and you will find that most people have a very difficult time with it. The instructions Bambu Lab provides tends to give very mixed results. My P1P is almost always printing 24/7 so I have had to do it a few times already. It really is a very hit or miss process. That being said they are very good printers that I personally recommend to most people when they ask me what to buy for their first printer

Thanks!

Really happy for you that you got a good one. I finally had mine working pretty good and was getting ready to make a follow up video, but unfortunately I had a new problem pop up with my 24v psu. It's working again, but I absolutely do not trust this machine to operate unattended anymore.

Yeah you have the most cursed one! Definitely worse than mine. Been following most of your struggles on the discord.. Peopoly should really just send you a new one at this point!

I bet they all wok pretty good! haha

@@makerscorner93 yes they do

I wouldn't say it's horrible, but I also wouldn't call it good. It is solidly just "meh"... I can usually get 28 to 34mm/s of volumetric flow with the standard melt zone (which is way better than most other printers on the market), but it struggles to actually get the flow started. Peopoly is working on a new revision so I'm curious to see how well that one performs. On top of that there are multiple groups within the community that are working on custom solutions to replace the extrusion system on the Magneto X. I can't really give many details on either one just yet as I'm not sure how much I'm allowed to share, but what I can say is while these things usually take a bit of time, there are a lot of really smart and talented people working on it and they are actually making some pretty solid progress so far.

@@makerscorner93 so the new machined which will drop soon will be updated?

Unfortunately not enough footage of the machine actually working yet lol. I have my machine finally in a mostly functional state now (after a long 2 months of troubleshooting) so I plan on doing a follow up video with a lot more footage of the actual machine. I mainly wanted to get some information out there since Peopoly is now selling to the general public and I wanted people to be able to make an informed decision whether or not to purchase it.

If I remember correctly, they had originally started showing it off back in August 2023. It was supposed to have been released sometime in November or early December but they quickly realized that they had a lot more work to do than they had initially thought. That's why we really didn't hear much from them after September. I think the main problem just came down to Peopoly not having the required experience in FDM to produce something as complex as the Magneto X. The overall building blocks of a good printer are there, it just needs a lot of little tweaks to get everything working as it should. Given how complex the Magneto is, I think Peopoly did an overall decent job, but they really should have done more internal testing rather than dump that job on the pre-order customers. Thanks for watching!

@@makerscorner93 I agree its not ready and with the high price tag that tends to leave a bad taste in peoples mouth. This might have been good 10 years ago when tinkering to get printers working was ok but know the standard is 15 minute setup and producing quality prints quickly. They have a lot of work to do.

Glad to be one of those "suckers" so others don't have to be! lol.. Honestly Peopoly jumped the gun on this one. They really needed more time to smooth out all the rough edges. Hopefully this will be a learning experience for them, as much as it is for us. Thanks for watching!

@@makerscorner93 When this this is finally complete it will be a beast. Thank you for your service. 🪖lol

Just saying, they're not a multi million dollar company. I think there's about 6 employees aside from people doing the assembly, and even then I think that's only 4ish more people. It's a small team that doesn't have a ton of profit, especially as currently they are sending out upgrade/replacement parts free to current magneto owners, which is really great of them, but they're no prusa or bambu in scale

we didn't pay $2k on preorder

​@@infowolfe Whether it is 2k or 1.4k does it even matter at this point? Do you have a fully functional product for what you paid?

I really appreciate the compliment. I haven't done any video work in a long time and was a bit all over the place during recording and editing. Definitely not "like riding a bike" haha. The Magneto X is in a bad place now, but the community is making improvements almost everyday! Even Bambu Lab had a few hiccups when they first launched (although admittedly not as bad as Peopoly). Give us a few months and I'm sure this printer will be worth it! Thanks again for the support!

Yes there are other options however SD card is a pain in the butt and means no remote starting of a print, LAN only mode as I had mentioned in the video is not as secure as most people think as Bambu Lab has been caught in the past still scrapping data from people using that option, and while FTP is an option, it is not one that many people are even aware of. I used to use FTP but found it to be slow and generally unstable. Don't get me wrong, I love my P1S but I will never blindly overlook obvious flaws just because I like a particular machine or company.

@@makerscorner93 I have to disagree. When the printer is in LAN only mode it does NOT leak/send out data. I have run checks both at the router level as well as wireshark. You can check it yourself. Heck if you are extra paranoid you can disable net access from any modern router at the client level. I dont blindly believe any company or any person who hasn't shown proof of their assertions, so I ran my own tests. Whether you are on a Vlan, normal router or one that is completely disconnected you can run Lan only mode. I frequently do it at local trade shows with a pocket router with no net access. There was a ytuber saying much of the things you mention and he was incorrect but he did it on a site that knew he was nowhere near an authority on the subject. and he could not answer let alone prove anything as network traffic can be at the very least monitored even if you cant view its contents. Even the crew behind x1+ who had access to far more of the inner workings confirmed what I already knew. You can run the printers without Net access, it does not send out data unless the user initiates it, and you dont need the cloud for it to work.

You are speaking into the void. that cloud thing has circled the globe and back several times and even after evidence showing it is 💩 people double down on false info.

It has been a painful and expensive journey being a "paying beta tester", but hopefully in the end it will be worth it!

If I remember correctly, the last blog post said they almost had everything sorted. Hopefully you won't be waiting too much longer!

Unfortunately I doubt that will ever happen. They are a printer manufacturer, not a hardware manufacturer

@@makerscorner93 sorry to break it to you, but they just did

It's odd that creators are still trotting out that lie even to this day when it has been debunked for a couple of years. AWS is in the states but even then you can use it fully offline or lan only.

I normally don't like doing the whole early adopter thing, but I wanted a larger format printer, and couldn't resist the pre-order price. I feel sure within a year the Magneto X will be in a much better place. Considering Peopoly has never made an FDM printer before, the problems we have been having so far are a bit expected. Working on this printer has brought up old nightmares of dealing with my Tevo Tornado! Not a pleasant experience to be reliving!

Seriously, the X1C is the only FDM printer I've had that worked perfectly out of the box, and I also waited a year after release to buy it. I'm afraid that by the time the Magneto gets the kinks ironed out, a new large format printer with tool changer will be available. Hopefully Bambu's upcoming XL printer will have linear rails and a tool changer....

Some people had asked if they would consider selling just the motors. The response they all got was the very corporate "we will take your suggestion into advisement". Translation, probably not gonna happen.

@@makerscorner93 Do you see any markings or other insight into another manufacturer?

They were a little too ambitious considering this is there first attempt at making an FDM printer. I feel confident that they will solve most of the problems over time

You are correct, there wasn't much showing the actual machine. I've had this printer for a few months now and unfortunately don't have much footage of the printer actually working. For that matter, there isn't much footage from anyone of the printer working due to all the issues we have been having with it. Peopoly recently opened up sales to the general public and I just wanted to get some actual information out there for people to be able to make an informed decision if they decide to purchase a Magneto X. I have two more videos planned for the Magneto X in the coming weeks which will have much more footage of the actual printer.

Peopoly has actually been pretty good at making changes in a very quick manner. It would not surprise me if they did manage to make changes and push them out that quickly. I did not have any clicking from the extruder in the beginning. It happens over time from the vibrations causing the set screw to come loose. They may have already started adding thread lock to the set screws before your printer shipped out to you.

This link worked for me peopoly.net/blogs/news/join-peopoly-discord-community

The foundation of a good printer is there. It just needs a bit more polish. Thankfully the problems are slowly but surely being solved. I'm hopeful that between Peopoly and the community working together we will have Magneto working beautifully soon!

This dude needs to drop his talking points and actually give accurate info. Cloud has always been an OPTION but never required to print.

@@AwwwSnapperz I should have worded that better. It is true you aren't forced into using the cloud, but the majority of the people using those printers aren't aware of that. The overwhelming majority of people are very basic users who might not realize there are other ways to start a print. I will be more careful in my wording next time.

I agree 100% it may take a bit of time, but we will definitely get there!

Yep I'm that guy! Haha. I am hoping to print and test my "V2" design tonight. If all goes well, I will post links to where you can download the files. The .cfg video will most likely be coming out next Friday. Want to make a few more tweaks to mine before recording that video. QA on the Magneto X has been super hit or miss. I agree there are a few lucky ones that got printers with zero problems, but the majority of us were not as lucky. Heck I'm thankful that my problems are on the easy side of things! There are some people who have had to completely disassemble their printers multiple times already!

I also have my screws clamped down, as that's what the instructions (still) say.

Yeah you definitely have enough knowledge to fix some of the problems we have been experiencing. Weird seeing you outside the Discord haha 😂

Glad to help. This is the first time I have ever tried to make a review video so I apologize for any lack of quality or weirdness in it. I am not super comfortable in front of the camera! haha.. Thanks for watching!

Way better than my videos.

That's a pretty good idea. Maybe even hide some wireless phone chargers in it too? Thanks for the suggestion! I haven't been active in creating new content for quite a while now but I am getting ready to start up again soon. Already have my camera equipment out and setup for a few videos coming soon!

@@makerscorner93 I like woodworking and things like your channel this video just popped up in my suggested feed and I watched it you could possibly recreate some of your og creations now that you have had more experience. I have wanted to get into this to get money I can't find a job right now but in my area there is not a lot of people who would pay for things like this or other woodworking

I wanted to have a review video out a few weeks ago, but there have been issues with my unit. Took a while to troubleshoot, but it is finally printing reliability now. Need a little more time to get some prints completed, so expect a review video within the next 7 days.

Review video is officially out! Feel free to watch it whenever you have time

Thank you. This was my first time attempting anything like this so I'm pretty happy with how it all came out
