Your channel is becoming my 3D print encyclopedia. I appreciate your analytical approach to solving common concerns. Looks like I'm going to be visiting Amazon to pick up a filtr an air quality sensor. Thank you sir for the excellent video.
Working on building an irising exhaust system for my enclosed printer before I begin working with ABS. Glad I watched this, as I was just going to go straight carbon filter to the outside of my garage. Time to bust out that old Arduino air quality project and do some tests!
Thanks for your insightful video. I've just decided to buy an AirGradient DIY Kit which I was already thinking about. Your video made it clear to me that I needed to at least check the air quality in my home office room which usually has a Prusa MK3S+ printer running. I choose the AirGradient kit because it's a fun soldering project and it allows me to read the sensor readings via software to dashboarding software like Grafana. Recently I've discovered your channel and it's really interesting to see your 3d printer farm adventures, keep up the good work!
Very interesting video. Really enjoying the technical side of your videos. In your day in the life of video, you showed yourself removing supports. I'd really be interested in seeing not only how you remove the supports, but what settings you might use to generate supports in the first place. Keep up the great work!
I snort all of the UFP dust to clog every square centimeter of my lungs and respiratory track, this ensures that any new UFP dust will not get to the other parts of the body through the other UFP dust while also strengthening the coat.
Great video as always! I'd love to see a video talking about business insurance and taxes. I've started a small 3d Printing business and these are my two biggest concerns right now. :)
I am currently running 3 3d printers maybe 8 hours a day, 3-5 days a week each in a small extra bedroom. Should I do something like this or just get an exhaust system setup to pull air out of the window?
@@FilamentFeed It depends on the cost and complexity of the exhaust system, and the actual dimensions of the room. My first farm had 15 printers in a 12 x 12 x 8 spare bedroom, and the intake filter for the A/C and house fan was close to the door. I just created a cross-current (it had 2 doors) to move the air to the filter. That worked really well for farm 1.0.
Please be aware that the HEPA filters used in these sort of units are not truly HEPA (they have HEPA media though) but the frame design does not allow for true HEPA filtration.
It's interesting that vaping would cause such a big issue. Either vaping is way worse than we all thought, or the VFAs in printing aren't that bad after all...
Right? It's also interesting, though, how quickly the meters clear after being spiked. I think the vape cloud is much heavier than air, and it just falls out of solution.
I might just go get that cert just so I can self certify: tinyurl.com/35abamch It doesn't look terribly difficult to pass, and all I need is an engineering degree (have one) and their study guide ($125.00).
@@3DPrintedDebris 👍 I’m just an architect, not an engineer. But if it were me, I would partition the admin and post processing apart from the production area for real peace of mind... add a small wall unit for Hvac.
Great video. People argue the toss over air filtration but one thing is for absolute sure, none of the stuff your 3d printer puts out is in any way shape or form, good for you - so if it isn't good for you it must be bad for you, right? Exactly how bad - now this is where the arguments start. I've gone for waaaay more medical grade filtration than I need just for my 3d printers in the house as frankly 500 bucks on an air filter is cheap compared to the price of a pair of lungs or coughing up blood for the rest of your life!!!
The more things we have, the more maintenance. There’s a risk that things to be repair, replaced … taking time away from the business. I’m curious about what would be the tipping point to a centralized something. Knowing is half the battle. Is it new or you have enough data yet (cost/maintenance/quality)?
@@b_meunier I've had the one unit for about 2 years, the other I added last month as I wasn't happy with the plots. It's basically just a box, a fan, and a air quality sensor. With a replacement cost of $166, I'm not too concerned about it. Also, the filter change was only about 5 minutes. 40 minutes per year is in the noise at this scale.
@@3DPrintedDebris I’ll buy the air quality monitor and build a ruclips.net/video/OVVGExTGCl8/видео.html and see. The noise, I forgot about the noise. Tks again mate.
Just please make sure you have the True HEPA medical grade filters in the units. The standard filters are better than nothing, but in for a penny......

Trust your nose. If you can smell the styrene, it needs to be addressed.
I look forward to all your videos, so much great information. Thank you for making these.

Phenomenal video!!! How have I not seen your channel before? Subscribing and recommending to all my friends.
Thank you for your support!!

Awesome vid, Big fan of your process videos!
Glad you like them! More to come!

Glad it was helpful!
Are you sure your discription link is correct for the hepatitis medical grade filters. On the screen shot it shows hepa h13
Out of interest what beds do you run on your ender 3's? Been binge watching your content its super addictive, great job!!!!
I've been using Wham Bam PEX for a couple of years now, and I like them so much I just bought 26 more to cover all of my Prusa MK3S.
@@3DPrintedDebris Thanks for the reply, ill keep my eyes out when they come back in stock, thanks a lot!!!!
@@3DPrintedDebris trank you for your help! How is your experience with wham bam pex and ABS/ASA and PETG? Best wishes for you!
@@eds3dshop29 I don't use ASA or ABS. PETG I normally use the FYSETC textured PEI plates.
Would you say the air filter machine is quiet or noisey? Thanks
It's actually really quiet!
It would be interesting to know what an industrial hygienist would have to report about a) the air quality and b) the ppe or mitigation required.

Am I just blind? Where's a link to the storefront? I'd love to see the customer facing side of this operation.
Google "3D Printed Debris"
I don't advertise my wares on this channel as it is devoted to large(ish) scale 3D print farming. You're not blind, it's deliberate. :)

What shelving do you use for your 3D printers and do they have any vibration issues?
I use ULINE industrial racks, 72 x 96 x 18 for the MK3s, and 72 x 72 x 12 for the Minis.
Do you have an EU alternative for the air quality monitor in that price range? All I seem to find are co2 based not pm.
No, sorry, can't help you there!
Lol i own all those air purifiers for my farm
Cool!
Just please make sure you have the True HEPA medical grade filters in the units. The standard filters are better than nothing, but in for a penny......
