I actually donated that mask to a local mardi gras krewe! the filament was over 41 kg and I want to leave these files of the Venetian mask I design here. I am not sponsored nor do I get paid yet to make videos and if you enjoy my content or want an awesome Venetian Keychain or mask, feel free to download here!:

I'm your 1,000th subscriber! Congrats. I bought a refurbished K2M, delivered a few days ago, can't get it printing right and suspect some hardware problems. Still waiting to hear back from Anycubic support. Fingers crossed, but seeing videos like this gives me hope that things could work out.
I truly thank you and everyone who watches, subscribers, or even just enjoys watching me ramble lmao! I believe in you and I hope your 3d printing journey kicks off to a great start! If you have any questions I love taking recommendations for videos so let me know!
Thank you for pushing me to take the step to get this printer I'm ordering it now
Nearly the same for me, but as I already have... some printers, I am watching for the next tempting offer. ;-)
Thanks man, I’ve been eyeing one of these for a while, good to know it’s just some small things that aren’t the greatest
Of course as soon as I posted the video, youtube recommended I watch a video about z binding which I think is the problem for the layer shifting! No worries! If you have questions, I'll try to answer them!
I was having trouble with lychee slicer supporting this printer. I am now trying prusa slicer but I am confused on where to put my settings
@lawrencehayes8233 do you have resin printers? Why would you use lychee slicer? I truly like anycubics slicer and I feel it help build a broader understanding on how 4d printing works, or read the instructions for uploading presets to prusa in the read me file they provided!
The kobra 2 max is terrible, please don't waste your money!!! I've had it for 8 weeks, and 6 of those weeks it's been down waiting on a replacement part from AnyCubic because it decided to destory itself while printing a test benchy. I just got the replacement part a couple days ago and guess what..it doesn't matter because the printer SUCKS BAHWLS! It's a decent frame of a printer, but the software, and the locked down nature of AnyCubic Kobra series, combined with how they cheaped out with a mobo that can't run it's stock configuration. It's not a bad template to start with, but the only way to make it "good" is to completely rebuild it into what it pretends to be - a klipper printer. Buuut, the stupid developors/management at AnyCubic wants to lock down an open source project they stole because moneys. Buy a bambu or build your own, this (and any AnyCubic afaic) is hot garbage.
@redeye8396 I think some of my layer shifting is actually happening because of the board overheating or just not being able to handle larger more complex stl files... I can't prove it but be on the look out!
I have an Elegoo Neptune 4 Max and many of the issues you describe with your K2M sound familiar. I suspect that those issues are common across most large format bedslingers. The layer shifting in particular seems endemic with these big build plates and is becoming very evident with this latest generation of fast klipper based machines. I've learned that printing big is a whole different beast than printing on a 220x220 plate. It's way more sensitive to tuning inputs and the issues seem magnified vs a smaller machine, like it's way less forgiving than the smaller machines. It's so much fun to print big.
I need to print 12x12" 3 mm thick squares will a used Kobra Max 1 work? or is it worth upgrading to Kobra Max 2
Erm, if you have your kobra 1 max set up well, I would stick with it! You might have to trouble shoot until you get the results you want!
this is a awesome review Thank you for taking time to show what this Printer can do . also I do have a Question before I purchase This Printer . Have you tried to use Cura to slice the Project for printing If not Will Cura work for this printer. If your not sure Since you do have this printer would you mind trying it before I spend the money . Thank you
Cura will work for this printer! You will have to manually set it up but there are instructions! I personally use anycubics slicer because it's great!
thank you very much for your time and your help 😊
I would love to have a dialed in .6mm and .8mm settings for PETG. I'm struggling with those myself
Let me get some nozzles and give it a try! I do mostly print larger items so it would be more efficient to have a larger nozzle!
I had a few minor issues as well getting started with my kobra 2 max but after some tweaking, tension adjustments on the belts and finding the rod supports had come loose on me but I seem to be in good shape now. Based on most of the research I've done fixing the various issues, very few issues are brand specific and mostly come down purely to user understanding. It's been very good so far.
The only thing really I would love to see is a hotend upgrade, the heatsink kinda hinders an all metal hot end upgrades!
@@OffThePathPrints I put in a bimetallic heat beak meant for the Vyper and it can now use standard volcano nozzles.
@petercallison5765 do you still have a small ptfe tube to guide the filament too the nozzle?
Benin kobra 2 max var amma ayarlarini tumunu bakdim bulamadim yardim etseniz cok gozel olurdu
Great video👍. How did you solve the z hop problem ? Always have a line about 3cm height.😢
I will make a video so soon!
Have you ever replaced the 0.4 nozzle with a 0.6 ???
Can you make a video showing you settings and tweaks? I like it but, ive had more failures than successful ones. What slicer do you use and settings? I use organic supports but, they're still hard to break off. Just looking for help for this printer. Thanks again!!
I sure will, I have a lot of personal stuff going on but I'll be back soon!
is it possible to control it from your pc ?
Could you please tell us what the "great tuning" was to fix these issues? Did the great tunings work after power recycles?
Thanks!
MY next video ima help you guys out sorry for not explaining I'm new to creating content but in time I'll be more efficient!
Just got the Kobra 2 max for my first printer and so far I love it, my only complaints are the directions for the printer are very lack luster I’ve been having trouble connecting the bracket cable that connects to the print head it won’t stay put and despite pushing on it harder like people have told me still nothing, reached out to customer service and they just sent me the wiring page out of the directions, so I guess I just have to hope the wire doesn’t give out because the bracket won’t work right
For the long gameplug that goes into the printhead, the first kobra 2 max I got the harness needed "convincing" to clip in and it never did, with my newer kobra 2 max, it does! One day I changed the printhead on the old printer.....the harness now clips in! Lol maybe check to see if the harness isn't in a bind!
@@OffThePathPrints if it’s not going to cause problems I’m probably just going to leave it I really really really don’t want to break it by trying to force it lol
Ive got this as my first printer 2 months, its amazing although I do print small. Issues I have is constantly having bad settings I try to lower the speed to 100mm/s different slicers, etc. Would you be able to post a video showcasing your settings if possible? Thanks for the awesome review!
I use PLA.
I sure will!
@@OffThePathPrintsthank you so much! I hope this video can come out as soon as possible I’ll stay put. 🎉
@@OffThePathPrintsI don’t mean to rush at all and I know it’s only been 4 days, but do you have an idea on when it’s possible that video can be released because I really struggle
Do you have issues with prints peeling off sfter long periods of time? If I do large long things like texture pallets for dry brushing, the corners will start to peel after 30 hours or so, like it cant sustain the temperature and still stick. Running default 60c
Does the temperature change in your house? Brims can help with those tight corners, but it sounds like the temperature in your house might be fluctuating??? What filament are you using? Let me know if that helps!
@@OffThePathPrints it's definitely possible the temperature fluctuated. I'm currently using SunLu PLA+ black. Now that I think about it I don't think I brimmed the texture pallet. I'll try that next time! Thanks
@Mobwalli how fast are you settings right now? Default? Around 200? 150? If it's a larger print unfortunately I would stick too slower speeds!
Could that blue ptfe tube be replaced with something more heat resistant
Chane the heat break.
could you post or send me your kobra 2 max settings because I had mine working wonderfully before it broke, I had to replace the entire wiring harness and now it wont print like before?
I sure will! I have a lot of personal things going on but I'll be back very soon!
Have you ad problems with the power loss print recuperation?
I have not attempted to use the power loss feature but I think that was added recently along with a few other things but I'll look into it! Are you having problems?
@@OffThePathPrints yes sadly the power loss resume option has not work in mi case there was no resume option after the power loss and i have the last firmware upgrade to date, ive check online and im not the only one the option seems to not be present despiste the manual saying it is there
*mentions Elegoo Orange Storm Giga*
“That one didn’t age quite so well”
You don't like the giga?
What settings do you use for max print speed?
For which filament? I will make a settings video very soon!
@@OffThePathPrints pla
@@OffThePathPrintspetg Ayari
Can you share your profiles? I cant make it work good for PETG
I've been having alot go on behind the scenes! I plan on making videos again very soon! Sorry yall!
is it good for abs filaments printing ?? ?
If you enclose it!
Quick question what’s the best 3d printer for $600 or less
Right now? I'd get an bambu a1!
Ok thanks
Please, make video about fixing the layer shifting. I have this issue with Kobra 2 max at my job and man I swear to God I'll get fired 😢
Slow down your Y axis acceleration and you'll be Gucci
i replaced my usb drive and it fixed it.
how is it for bobotics?
Like the Boba company? Can you explain more?
@@OffThePathPrints sorry there, I meant robotics.
@kirbyculp5448 I've 3d printed functional parts and not have had a problem! Just look for things like Elephant's Foot, warping!
@@OffThePathPrints groovy! Thank you
my fan quit working, replaced the head and still nothing.
Have you tried checking the gameplug that plug into the print head? Make sure there isn't a prong bent
