I love your no nonsense way of documenting each process ie. your mode of filming, subtitles and subtle humour. I am pleased you are being gifted 'toys' to improve your work shop. Wishing you and yours all the very best. 🎉
I have absolutely no idea of what you were explaining concerning your new tool(s). But, I could care less because the enjoyment watching you put it to use is light years ahead of any verbal or written explanation I would understand. People like you are the purpose of these innovations. Showcasing your talent and creativity using the product enables both manufacturer and you the ability to have what your mind imagines. You don’t owe anyone an explanation about the tools you receive and your response reflects the professional you are. The panda bear and boat creations for your girls along with Tiffany’s pink boot on the new patio reflects the caring father and husband you are and is so indicative of how all the girls in your house are so loved and cherished. I’m a 71yr old grandma living in the USA Chicago, IL and I thank you for taking the time to post these videos and so look forward to the next.
You should get the Bambu Lab A1 mini (smaller brother to the A1 in this video). It is only $200 US and is as easy to setup and use as what was shown in this video. Does everything the others do, just smaller print area. I cannot believe how many things I have found to print with it for my french cleat wall and tools. You will have a blast using it 🙂
Just set mine up this week😊 increadibly useful around a workshop, if i print out a dust shoe for my cnc it pays for the machine compared to buying one! my mate printed a replacement part for his electric shower and saved on buying a new one.i got the entry level a1 mini to see what i could do with it, looking forward to exploring possibilities, cheers
3D printing is by far the greatest addition to any profession /hobby /DIYer ever invented to date,, it's mindblowing what can be done with them, who knows what's coming
I'm warming up to Bambu, I'm very much a newb, as I only got my three printers a few months ago when I found them at the garbage disposal of my apartment complex. But I've hesitated to buy a Bambu because I've been told they're basically the Apple of 3D printers. But looking at this video really puts me on the edge of getting one.
OMG I love my X1Carbon printer, also my big Voron v2.4 They have immensely helped my create new ideas for projects and also one off or replacement car parts... love them
Thanks for showing some real useful reasons for having a 3d printer - too many channels seem to show how to print nothing but novelties and land fill. I can now see how they can be used as an adjunct to normal workshop machines - thank you.
you're really smart and gifted I didn't understand the workings of the machine but I loved watching it anyway .LOL well done and keep making these brilliant videos. xo
The grate is great. :) This type of grate is usually made of a UV-resistant material. So if you protect your grate with a UV resistant polyurethane paint / you will extend its life. Usually the cables/pipes/drainage/ sit in the ground surrounded or in a bed of sand (at least 15-20 cm thickness around them). The reason is: - sand has a high compression factor - because it flows and is soft, it protects the pipe from any other mechanical factor - filters everything that comes from the outside - water easily passes through it without affecting its volume - does not freeze in winter You can also use round ornamental stones on the top - it will also protect the pipes. Just a thought... Cheers.
How long to do reckon it'll be be beofre you've collected enough printer poop that you start designing a recycler to melt it down and extrude it back into filament?
There are a couple of videos on people making pellets out of the waste and then feeding the 3D printers with pellets instead of filament. I think the pellets are a 1/3 the cost of filament.
4:27 benefits of a structural enclosure. It's one of the first mods i did to my pet project Cr-10. Custom made extruded enclosure which allowed me to modify the software for mad speeds. You cannot beat a printer with a proper enclosure and more importantly a software that "understands" what it resides in (hence the whole calibration dance this one had at the start). All of my enclosed printers are so above the norm where they started, that the difference might as well be night and day. 7:00 get a shredder and filament extruder. Useful way to recycle filament drops. There's several out there now that are on part with a proper setup and you can also find DIY units, depending on what you fancy using. I've a DIY one from 2018ish, so a bit behind the times, but still makes good filament. Caveat, if you don't add your own pellets and more importantly keep your materials separated, you will have a very "peppered" filament. Some people don't like that. I myself find it really funny. Can't beat usefulness tho. For prototypes re-using plastic is top shelf 3D print cooking. If you can't find pellets locally and can't be bothered to import bags. You can always use a decent filament spool as a donor. Usually i do a ratio mix of 70% recycled filament and 30% new material for most types of filament (ABS, PLA etc). Specific types of filament (like wood, aluminium/brass etc) don't work as well and you need a really dedicated setup (hence my oldie). For those, i use either a titanium nozzle or a stainless one. Otherwise, you'll chew the nozzle running metalized filaments within 20~30 meters of it. PSA/protip: if you do decide to recycle, get a vacuum station and moisture absorbent pads. You're not in a factory setup and moisture will ruin this filament. -
They could not choose a better You Tube Channel to report on these bits of kit. You deserve the payback too for the superb and interesting projects you have shared with us.😀👍 On a technical note how do you ‘communicate’ the files with these machines (I gave up on PCs ten years ago) - can it all be done via an iPad/iPhone?
No mate. When you make the files yourself it's CAD, when you download them they need to be "sliced" in the relevant programme so that the printer recognises them, then you can put them on an SD card (micro) for the A1, or send them straight to the printer from a PC or phone if the file is from Makerworld as they're ready to go.
X1C combo is brilliant, my first printer and had it about two months. It's a proper tool, don't have to faff with it to make it work properly. It just does what it's told. Considering getting an other AMS when I move it to its final location.
I went and bought the A1 after watching your video. My 10 y/o 3D-printer was starting to get a little sloppy anyway, so the timing was perfect. I paid the same for my old printer 10 years ago, as the new A1, but so much have hapend in the 10 years. Filament swapping is so easy now. No more masking tape on the (unheated) printbed. Hardly any sound, though my old printer was quite quiet too (except when it hit resonance - then the whole table was shaking) Unfortunately I'm not able to connect the A1 to WI-FI as it only supports 2.6GHz, so I'm currently printing via Micro SD. Except from that I'm very happy with the printer.
Never was sold on the filament printers when they first emerged, but the resin caught my attention due to the fine finishes and detail they can achieve with little user intervention. Where as, filament printers can be challenging and frustrating. This demonstration highlights some of the innovation that makes filament more approachable and slightly more attractive. Thanks for showing the Bambu X1c system’s capabilities and streamlined features.
I've bought TWO of their printers (P1S and an A1 Mini) and didn't get a project/toy in EITHER of them. I also have 2 AMS' for the P1S and one AMS Lite for the A1 Mini, they are really spectacular printers and I would recommend them to ANYONE that wants to spend more time printing and less time tinkering with printers. (Mind you, I've also built a Voron Trident and I'm going to build a Voron 2.4, because I like printing AND tinkering). :)
I've been faffing about with a CR10s for years now. My buddy picked up a P1S and he's been so happy with it. I had a project that would've taken 2 whole weeks of nonstop printing on my CR10s. He printed it for me in PETG in 4 days running his printer on and off. I wish you had an affiliate link for the P1S!
Just need something that turns those little plastic "poops", scraps and offcuts back into something useful and useable, along with being able to re-use plastics that we get in general purchases like food packaging and such... :)
Russ, do you have a full-time (normal) job, freelance, or is RUclips your main gig? Sending all the best. Your work is simply the best, and your channel has been the favorite of all my subs for a long time. I’m always very glad when you put out a new video.
My lockdown project was building an open source Prusa clone, had so much enjoyment during and since. Never had much satisfaction with PLA and tend to use PETG exclusively.
Dit is een fantastische machine en het lijkt me leuk om er mee te werken en te ontwerpen. Maar er zitten ook nadelen aan. Al het materiaal is van kunststof en juist daarvan willen we af. Ook zag ik dat de machine zelf afval produceert, hoewel dat netjes opgevangen wordt door een zelf geprint bakje. Omdat 3 D printen nog in de kinderschoenen staat wil ik geen oordeel vellen. Ik wens je heel veel plezier ermee.
Waiting for payday so I could treat myself to a Bambu Lab printer. Was on the fence, but now you've posted this, the coincidence alone is enough justification. Can't afford the X series, but looking at the mid-range P1S. Like the A, but an enclosure would cut down on dusting.
That was a lot of fun and the versatility of the machines is great. Thanks for the updates on some of your previous projects. Looking forward to the rest of the back garden makeover. Thanks for sharing, Russ.
We got a bambu x1 carbon for research in our lab and I absolutely adore it. Having worked with several different brands, it definitely earns its hefty price tag. Thankfully the government paid for it 😂
3D printers are a toy if you can't 3D model and a tool if you can imo. I have fixed so many weird and wonderful things just by having some basic af Fusion 360 knowledge and an old Prusa MK2. Perfect example being a 4 unit tall petshop aquarium that had most of the access hinges snapped off; replicate the remaining good hinges in Fusion, print, install and bam! fixed fish tanks. Seeing someone actually USE the damn printer to do something other than print increasingly high speed benchies is always good to see!
I really had no idea what you were doing, but the end results are terrific! The panda and speedboat will, I am sure, be very popular and I loved all the bits and pieces you printed for the workshop. But as far as I’m concerned, computer 3D printing is a dark art!
Great video. At first I thought it was only "bathing ducks" and "small sailing ships" and was on my way away. But then there are solutions for/to "Collection of tools" "The Poop Machine" Update to the "dust collector" And finally grate for downpipes. I love it ;-)
Could you please show a little on the design input into the 3d printer machine. What does the interface look like, how is the software used?. Thanks great content!!
4:54 👀… ooo I can see a vintage vent-axia rangemaster/t-series controller = I assume you must have an equally vintage standard range/t-series fan connected to it in your workshop 😊
The description says: "The following are affilate links which I get paid a small commision with extra cost to you-" I think you meant NO extra cost? Great video as always, thanks for sharing!
A1 looks tasty. good shout. Liked the laserizer, probably better than my Ali Bla Bla via fleaBay - under a tenner - laser, duct-taped to the 3d printer assembly... Probably...
Both printers are great, but I agree with your conclusion that the A1 combo provides excellent value for money given what it's capable of. I've had two X1 Carbons for the coming-up for 2 years in my print-farm and they've performed well (but not entirely flawlessly). Lead-screw lubrication and carbon rod cleaning are the two important maintenance routines and you will notice a drop in print quality and dimensional accuracy before the machine detects the need and notifies you. Spares are inexpensive and I have entire hot-end and extruder assemblies ready to drop in when I've an extruder issue, and they're easily bench repairable. For me the X1C makes sense if your a business rather than hobbyist and a) you need a wider range of material types, especially ABS and Nylon and, b) you need the fastest print times to maintain production output. The A1 is very everyone else. Great video. K.
Yeah I was thinking the carbon rod could be an issue, I can't see what is used a bearing against it though, The A1 is definitely going to be more durable for a farm even though it isnt as quick it could make more sense long term for pla/petg, especially since you can have three of them for the price of one X1CC
X1c is hard to justify over the p1s. A lot of extra money for a higher fps camera and lidar of questionable usefulness. The diference in cost is better spend on an AMS
A man wearing many hats and all are Master level. What a talent.
I agree.
I love your no nonsense way of documenting each process ie. your mode of filming, subtitles and subtle humour. I am pleased you are being gifted 'toys' to improve your work shop. Wishing you and yours all the very best. 🎉

Agreed
"could care less" should be "couldn't care less".
Kind regards,
Grammar Nazi.
Making upgrades for your tools with those tools is a level of meta that really scratches an itch somehow. Just like improving your shop with the shop.
This has always been the essence of 3D printing. Print upgrades for the printer! :D
This is the first time I have seen 3D printing. I am amazed at what can be done with it.
You should get the Bambu Lab A1 mini (smaller brother to the A1 in this video). It is only $200 US and is as easy to setup and use as what was shown in this video.

3D printing is by far the greatest addition to any profession /hobby /DIYer ever invented to date,, it's mindblowing what can be done with them, who knows what's coming
I know what is coming: even more microplastics
Думаю,все эти механизмы вдохновляют и подвигают вас к покорению новых "вершин". Рада за вас!
Мне,даже наблюдать за вашей работой в удовольствие.

@@davidgreen3723 Marius hornberger also has a good video on 3d prints for a workshop
X1c innovations are a bit pricey compared to resin printers.
What a lovely world when people share templates.
Thank you very much for filming so many of your projects and giving us an insight into the skills you have been blessed with
you're really smart and gifted I didn't understand the workings of the machine but I loved watching it anyway .LOL well done and keep making these brilliant videos. xo
Love that you give credit for all of the prints that you use.
just FYI, the 2 textured tabs on the top front of the AMS can be rotated to hold the lid down and make a better seal
What would I do with a better 3D printer is always the question, and this answers that.
The grate is great. :)
This type of grate is usually made of a UV-resistant material.
So if you protect your grate with a UV resistant polyurethane paint / you will extend its life.

Your garden is going to look incredible
Brackets for the briquette press? Braquettes, surely ;)
Always nice to receive new toys and you certainly put them to good use.
X1C combo is brilliant, my first printer and had it about two months. It's a proper tool, don't have to faff with it to make it work properly. It just does what it's told. Considering getting an other AMS when I move it to its final location.
3d printing is an amazing tool for solving problems that are almost impossible to sort out otherwise! used it several times myself.
I've also just recently bought a Bambu A1 to go with my Ender3.. First couple of layers are a relaxed event. Then, as you say, it goes mental.. :-)
I’ve had one of these for a few months and I absolutely love it. Gave my Ender 3 to the kid.
i also just got this same printer 🤣 truly tuned in right outta the box. love it so far
I bought an X1 Carbon two weeks ago and I agree - they are AMAZING printers - a friend has the A1 and she loves it too.
I think you will need a bigger workshop soon than you think, great work at home by the way.
Phil from Sheffield
So glad I found your channel!

You’re brilliant sir! The A1 Carbon is by far the best printer I’ve owned. It just works and it’s fast.
Never a dull video, my son in law has the same printers
A nice little in between video from NYW to show what new toys he has. Can’t wait for the next garden video.
Yes, please finish your garden...!
Un plaisir de voir toute les vidéos 🤩🙏👏👍
Mind blown What an amazing piece of kit
Hope your girls enjoy the toys and someday you can show them how they are made.
Oh, how grateful, I am glad I took these printers. Nice video.
Certain tools in the right hands can be very useful. You have the "right hands," I enjoyed watching and marveling at everything you created!
Muy buena impresora. De mucha utilidades varias. Gracias por la demostraciòn.
Thanks for documenting all of this.
I've been faffing about with a CR10s for years now. My buddy picked up a P1S and he's been so happy with it. I had a project that would've taken 2 whole weeks of nonstop printing on my CR10s. He printed it for me in PETG in 4 days running his printer on and off. I wish you had an affiliate link for the P1S!
I always enjoy your videos (even a review one) thanks!
Thnx for new video 😊
Waiting for little garden series update 🙈
You have more patience than anybody else ever! Your videos are brilliant and your craftsmanship is wonderful. I wish you a million subscribers
Just need something that turns those little plastic "poops", scraps and offcuts back into something useful and useable, along with being able to re-use plastics that we get in general purchases like food packaging and such... :)
Russ, do you have a full-time (normal) job, freelance, or is RUclips your main gig? Sending all the best. Your work is simply the best, and your channel has been the favorite of all my subs for a long time. I’m always very glad when you put out a new video.
You can print desiccant boxes for those inner/rear ams holes too.
Omgoodness that’s the most amazing technology I’ve seen
Karen from Florida 🌴💕
Awesome 3d printers . I have two worth every cent
Ross….thinking you’re going to need a bigger workshop mate ! 😃
My lockdown project was building an open source Prusa clone, had so much enjoyment during and since. Never had much satisfaction with PLA and tend to use PETG exclusively.
By lad a could watch ya just make a good cup of Yorkshire tea & be happy!! Asay😉
Man who is good at making things trains robots to make things. Why am I not surprised? A 21st Century Master Craftsman right here.
I know you will make good use of them😊
Those 3D printers are really cool!
Got my A1 a few months ago- a lot better than th Ender 3 v2. Need the AMS now. Prints TPU really well.
Cheers for sharing
Сколько же всего необходимого, нужно напечатать, как только появляется принтер.😊
Nice to see you impoving your materiel !
Others may have said but you can redirect the poop to another small model / toy etc on the bed (that doesn’t mind being multi-coloured)
Wow, talk about a silk purse from a sow's ear. Nice job!
The first two things one does with a new 3d printer is make toys and accessories for the new 3d printer. 😂 great way to get started.
I have the Bambu Lab A1 and AMS and love it.
Dit is een fantastische machine en het lijkt me leuk om er mee te werken en te ontwerpen.
Maar er zitten ook nadelen aan.
Al het materiaal is van kunststof en juist daarvan willen we af. Ook zag ik dat de machine zelf afval produceert, hoewel dat netjes opgevangen wordt door een zelf geprint bakje.
Omdat 3 D printen nog in de kinderschoenen staat wil ik geen oordeel vellen.
Ik wens je heel veel plezier ermee.
Waiting for payday so I could treat myself to a Bambu Lab printer. Was on the fence, but now you've posted this, the coincidence alone is enough justification. Can't afford the X series, but looking at the mid-range P1S. Like the A, but an enclosure would cut down on dusting.
That was a lot of fun and the versatility of the machines is great. Thanks for the updates on some of your previous projects. Looking forward to the rest of the back garden makeover. Thanks for sharing, Russ.
It's always great to get one of your videos, I just wish it was once a week
We got a bambu x1 carbon for research in our lab and I absolutely adore it. Having worked with several different brands, it definitely earns its hefty price tag. Thankfully the government paid for it 😂
3D printers are a toy if you can't 3D model and a tool if you can imo. I have fixed so many weird and wonderful things just by having some basic af Fusion 360 knowledge and an old Prusa MK2. Perfect example being a 4 unit tall petshop aquarium that had most of the access hinges snapped off; replicate the remaining good hinges in Fusion, print, install and bam! fixed fish tanks.
Seeing someone actually USE the damn printer to do something other than print increasingly high speed benchies is always good to see!
These machines seem to be the best you can get for a fair price.
Every printer needs some attachments and tools printed for themselves.
Some pretty cool machinery there russ, I like the hetching one .
It’s Christmas in August. Great gifts 🎁
I really had no idea what you were doing, but the end results are terrific! The panda and speedboat will, I am sure, be very popular and I loved all the bits and pieces you printed for the workshop. But as far as I’m concerned, computer 3D printing is a dark art!
Once again, a very creative and great video. Thank you.
Always fasinating and top shelf work... best channel on RUclips
Bambi Labs know what they’re doing by sending their kit to the most inventive individual on RUclips.
Great video.
At first I thought it was only "bathing ducks" and "small sailing ships" and was on my way away.
But then there are solutions for/to
"Collection of tools"
"The Poop Machine"
Update to the "dust collector"
And finally grate for downpipes.
I love it ;-)
Could you please show a little on the design input into the 3d printer machine. What does the interface look like, how is the software used?. Thanks great content!!
It’s not the first time I’ve watched someone do 3d printing but that Panda! Once it started shaking like that I had my mouth wide open!!! Sorcery!!!
Epic work. Future business. Thank you.
4:54 👀… ooo I can see a vintage vent-axia rangemaster/t-series controller = I assume you must have an equally vintage standard range/t-series fan connected to it in your workshop 😊
Welcome to Bambu world 😉👍
The description says: "The following are affilate links which I get paid a small commision with extra cost to you-" I think you meant NO extra cost? Great video as always, thanks for sharing!
lol, thanks ive changed it!
A1 looks tasty. good shout. Liked the laserizer, probably better than my Ali Bla Bla via fleaBay - under a tenner - laser, duct-taped to the 3d printer assembly... Probably...
Why doesn't this channel have a billion subscribers?
Gran video un abrazo desde ESPAÑA😊😊
Well done Yorkie 👍
Brilliant as always...
Bambu is a good choice. Unfortunately, when problems arise, it is difficult - if not impossible - to get help.
If you think they are bad, try Anycubic lol.
Thanks, I've been 'Bambu Labs curious'
Magistral. Enhorabuena.
So Russell, to recap, you bought two new machines and a filament winder?
Very impressive.
Talking of poop, how's the dust extraction briquette pooping compressor thingy going?
is there any way of reusing the poop waste can it be recycled?
Both printers are great, but I agree with your conclusion that the A1 combo provides excellent value for money given what it's capable of. I've had two X1 Carbons for the coming-up for 2 years in my print-farm and they've performed well (but not entirely flawlessly). Lead-screw lubrication and carbon rod cleaning are the two important maintenance routines and you will notice a drop in print quality and dimensional accuracy before the machine detects the need and notifies you.
