Maker of the v slot cable clip here and have been a fan for a while :) you inspired the desk, I made my own plans and stuff based on it and completed it a few weeks ago. Its a bit bigger then yours, but you were a big inspiration. Also mounted my PC to v slots after your PC case video, though I screwed mine under my desk. Needed a new desk right when you uploaded your first desk video, so I also immediately jumped into fusion and made plans for my own. Currently still looking for nice ways to utilize the v slot. Working on a headset hanger type thing currently. So far I mounted my mic arm on a custom 3d printed bracket for v slots, though its not at a good enough point to upload currently. Thanks for featuring me.
@@DommoDommo wanted to start uploading about my personal projects, diy stuff, makerworld uploads and stuff like that for a while now, but you know… time and creativity is sparse when you have school and work.
Yo!!! I was hoping you'd see this vid. That's so awesome to hear 🤩 Well done on following through with the inspiration and making your own desk, it's looking great. Nice job on adding standing desk legs too. I did notice a lot of other 3D printed parts, the spool holders are a cool touch. Hopefully I see your headset hanger pop up on Maker World, I've been thinking of making one too but now that I've added that piece of metal to make the corflute look good, I've lost front edge mounting. Excited to see how your desk evolves through the pictures in file uploads. If you even share pics elsewhere, let me know here (RUclips block direct links, so just say what platform and what handle).
@@camshand Update: posted some pics on my Reddit account about the pc and how it’s put on the desk, will follow up with something more detailed probably later today, especially about the cable management.
For general cable management, my best bet is using a slotted PVC channel (those used for electrical). It's cheap, comes in big sizes and you can route cables through basically any hole
It's a great tip to know! I used to manage thousands of computers at a university, and that is how I reduced the risk of a student cutting their hand when reaching behind a PC 💡
Yeees, I've just been binging the entire desk playlist and was thinking how some L-connectors for your implemented devices would clean it up nicely - and then you're bringing it up, very nice! I'm excited to see what you'll do next :)
Hey mate. Sparky here, i love how the desk turned out, but i seriously hope those blue points (screw connectors) didn't have 230v going through them. Having only single insulation, and parts that can be touched is a no-no. Also with the wire heating up, the safety switch should trip on the board before it'll heat up the wires, coiling them like you did will produce more heat (it's basically making a small copper electromagnet), but unlikely enough to worry about. And screened cables that are earthed on the sensitive stuff will cut out interference.
Another 3d printable cable management solution I've been looking into is the Underware by Hands On Katie, it uses multiboard screwed in under the desk and allows you to print all kinds of attachments for it
I saw that pop up when searching for different mounts. Very interesting! It's like the wall mount grids and draw grid systems but flipped upside down. If you couldn't have a rear panel like I have then that's be great for tucking cables up under the desktop. But it'd be a lot less effort to mount a metal panel across the back.
I've enjoyed my Bambu P1S, glad you had a good experience with the A1. One day soon i'll pull my finger out and sort the calibration for TPU flow to re-print the speak stands! Desk is looking super clean man... loving it's progression.
I may have just got my hands on a X1C too, and reprinting the speaker stands with Bambu Labs own TPU is on my list, with hopes to get better quality and also have repeatable settings to share. I'll keep you posted once I dial in bambu lab settings.
With the printer that's how haha 😉 I put off doing the cable management as I was like, what a boring subject haha, but such an integral part of the build. Glad you found it interesting!
Hey Cam, if you're concerned about power strips overheating, pay attention to the wire gauge. If its a semi-permanent installation and you know roughly the amp draw you are expecting, air cooling is not something you need to be concerned about if the gauge is low enough. Alternatively, you can just have your higher amp draw components like your PC psu on a separate strip with thicker cables.
Yes it's good to calculate loads! I've done what you suggested already, put my PC on a separate outlet. The main concern I raised was I've seen people tightly wrap power boards or extension leads in desk set-ups. Since these can be close to max load without tripping overload they'll get hot. Best to be on the safe side! 👍
if you have extra length of power cables, don't roll it up, put it in a zigzag. rolling it up essentially forms a coil which increases impedance (a form of resistance) causing your wires to heat up more than they normally would. zigzagging a wire does the opposite while still saving space
For the Bambulab Printers i recommend using the Orca slicer tho. its basically the Bambulab slicer on steroids. More functions, better supports and finer Prints (at least on my P1s)
it cracked me up how much messing around you must do to make these videos, bro broke out his microscope, his slider and probably like 5 different mounts for his lights and camera. It's extra in the best way possible lol
Brilliant, and compelling. I have an old anycubic vyper that I just stopped using 'cause it's so unreliable I just assume "the next print" will fail. That makes me forget how to setup my potato running octopi that manages it ... and man I wouldn't mind having it all be as easy as what you just illustrated. Also my desk's wiring is a disaster but I am very good at ignoring it.
Dude this bambu labs A1 seriously impressed me with the automation. Watching it shake itself through varying frequencies to find motor speeds to avoid resonance is breathtaking as a nerd 🤓 I didn't even watch the first layer for majority of the prints either, just hit go and got back to the next job. Wild stuff Compared to "the old days"
@@camshand that is such a rad feature. So smart! I've been wondering what it would take to get 3D printers into a more set it and forget it level. Stuff like that, I suppose - which I didn't even think of as an issue! So cool
Haha yeah blew my mind when I first discovered it. Only other person I've spoken too that uses it was a guy that does 3D scanning of models for movies, he uses it as it's super sticky but he never knew it was reusable, blew his mind 😆
@@camshand I've only been able to reuse the gecko tape up to three times, then it becomes unusable. Wonder if soaking the tape in alcohol/IPA could refresh it when it's full of dirt... (or ultrasonic cleaner) Also, you might like to use magnets for the metal server rack panel, like LTT's magnet arches (or 3D print some).
Magic! 🪄 for real though, I have a iFootage Shark Slider Nano. Doesn't work well with heavy cameras, so I use my small Sony ZV1 on it, but it's phenomenal for 2 axis movements, that why it looks extra niiiiice 🤙
Good to see you in the comments Matt! Hope your 3D printing projects have been going good. Haha yeah I hate sharp zip ties so I thought it's essential to put the tip at the start of the vid so no one else has to suffer any longer 😂 Also the AMS fact I had to add as I've seen so many comments online wondering if they can support anything. So glad I could confirm 3rd party support 👍

Finally someone tells people how to properly cut a ziptie! I’ve cut myself numerous times on these sharp ends.
It's a great tip to know! I used to manage thousands of computers at a university, and that is how I reduced the risk of a student cutting their hand when reaching behind a PC 💡
@@camshand I build professional electrical cabinets and this was one of the first things they taught me 😂
I could not tell you the amount of times i have cut my hands or arms on a poorly cut cable tie

Production quality so high i forget how underrated you are

And now I need to buy one of these printer combos. Good job.

Im happy to see how far this has come
Nail clippers work super good for close, clean zip tie cuts.
Ooooh I've never thought of that but it makes sense!

why do i see my comment twice? RUclips whats going on?
bro i wanna see your setup irl its so clean
You should look at the new stream deck studio Elgato just dropped. might be something for your desk
Instead of using the velcro ties that are pre-made I buy a cheap roll of double-sided velcro and cut to length. It is much cheaper.
it cracked me up how much messing around you must do to make these videos, bro broke out his microscope, his slider and probably like 5 different mounts for his lights and camera. It's extra in the best way possible lol
haha dude I actually want that microscope now, that looks fun and educational. It's .. for the kids I swear
great video man!

Anyone wanna play a guessing game to what he will add? I personally think it'll be a screen to show him info about his PC
Oooooh screen with data is on the right path... but the type of screen is the fun part 😜
Best video I've seen today 💪
what mouse do you have, it looks awesome!
7:50 No way we have “Just Add Water” tape now

can, when your setup is over, you tell us how many it cost you (with detail of each) ?
why am i even watching this video?💀
the only thing i have is a broke laptop, not even a mouse
que buen video
Not related to this video, buuuuuuut did you see the Elgato stream deck studio 👀
YES I DID! Rockmount too, literally made for a custom dashboard setup 💕
The amount of times I have cut myself on scissor cut zip ties is crazy. Also glad to see Bambu allows third party spools for the AMS.
Good to see you in the comments Matt! Hope your 3D printing projects have been going good.
