Thanks @Darren! 🤯🤯 You can print your own Nozzle Wiper replacements! I love you, beautiful makers! www.printables.com/model/359226-bambu-lab-nozzle-wiper Bambu Lab Printer for yourself bit.ly/BambuLabUJ
Are you on telegram? Bc I got a message from you saying you were sending me something so i zelle transfered it & “you” said that zelle is closed & to send again. I tried messaging you on fb I think someone is scamming under your name.
I've been 3D printing for years, I've worked with many printers from many different manufacturers including Creality and Prusa and FLSun, and I stand firmly by the statement that these are the best non-industrial-scale 3D printers out there. Nothing else comes close. They print more quickly and more cleanly than any other printer I've used that's not a Voron. The company is indeed fantastic at incorporating community feedback and building out customer tools for resolving failed prints. And yet there's this outright venom and hostility from the 3D printing community toward Bambu devices. I've been called a shill, they've alleged that Bambu pays everyone who says good things about them, and they swear up and down that "there's no such thing as a turnkey / plug-and-play 3D printer." There's this odd stubbornness to detach from the cheap-and-mediocre 3D printers that require excessive adjustment and prayers at the altar to print right. It's bizarre and frustrating gatekeeping, as if they refuse to add anyone to their "trusted manufacturers" list after Creality and Prusa dominated the market.
My X1C with 2 AMS are amazing. Sure growing pains, but considering the variables and complications of the tasks we ask of it, it’s just better than any other printers I’ve owned. Plus the support people have given me caring personal responses. A+ in my book.
If the black dust is actually coming from carbon rods, it might not be to good on the lungs. Carbon nanotubes (not the same) result in similar lung damage as asbestos in studies. Any hard to break down fibres with similar dimension as asbestos can cause similar damage… Just felt the urge to mention it. ✌️
I think something to also note is i have had ALMOST NO ISSUES with silk on the x1 carbon ams. On my elegoos i'd have constant issues with perfection but these seem to print them perfect almost always which blows my mind.
Fantastic video as always! Definitely along for the ride with this one. I have 1 X1CC and 2 P1P and there's definitely growing pains but that's what you get with a gen 1 product. given all the problems I've previously dealt with on past printers this isn't something out of the normal. I'm glad to see they're taking all the feedback as seriously as they are and I'm excited to see how it all evolves.
I’ll tell you from my two weeks of experience printing. Long story short, I put in an order for X1C, and forgot about it. Wife got me a neo for Christmas. Iv spent over 24+ hours leveling the Ender. I’m 5 days of having the X1 set up, I have leveled it, zero times. One fail due to me forgetting glue, everything else has been absolutely flawless.
I continue to weigh my options, which do you prefer between the x1c and p1p? If I get the p1p I’d order the ams with it, or I’d get the x1c and ams somewhere down the line.
@@i3lvlvvs after now owing these for a while I wish I had ordered 2 P1P instead of the 1 X1CC. it really comes down that what your needs and use case will be but the P1P is a mighty machine that can do most of what the X1C can do.
My biggest issues are with the AMS. However I love the prints coming off of this. I did not know they made it that I can send prints to the SD card now. That makes me happy.
Been printing on the cool plate and had no extra adherence issues when using 3DLAC plus. Never liked glue stick so bought some of that on a whim and it’s been incredible! £9.99 and lasted me close to 400 hrs on a single build plate sticker!
I can sing to the high heavens for 3dlac. felt I had a bit too much adhesion at times on an E3max glass bed but by god would I trust it to hold my first born while it printed
Its more cheap use Strong Hair spray (thats have pvva , and can bybcleaned with just water), here in Chile, 3d lacs is very expensive (20 uss compare to 3 uss) compare to hair spray, 3d lacs dobthe job , but hair spray is the same ,but cheaper
The cool plate has worked well for me. Way superior to the glass bed on my retired Robo3D R1+. I have over 400 hours of PLA printing on the original sticker and it’s still going strong. I use Windex as the release agent, but I don’t use it before every print and I wash the plate with soap and water from time to time and then reapply the Windex.
Regarding loading the filament, you only need to hit the button to extrude once until it grips the filament. When a job starts, it extrudes enough to get it flowing from the nozzle just fine. When loading filament for a replacement mid-print, though, I did have to purge out some filament myself as the printer didn’t do that itself.
Thank you for the update! Just one thing... I haven't found review or update of anyone who's printed a duo-tone (or two color) print and weighed the purge strings and the purge tower, along with the printed object (including the supports), to get a ratio of waste to product. I know supports are considered waste material but we would get the same amount of support waste on other machines. Eventually we could work our way down to what type of support delivers the best benefit to cost ratio later on. As we move forward with being a more "green" society, we in the printing community need to be aware of our waste, too. But then again, the more people we have looking into this, and as Bambu Lab as been really responsive so far with making changes and updates, we - and Bambu Lab - could be on the forefront of recognizing and mitigation waste before it has time to become a problem. And whatever gains we make here could be shared with other printer companies. Thanks again for the update.
I just got my first X1C with AMS and I'm in love. I have 5 other printers (3 work) and I think I need to look into donating those to someone starting out. This thing is just a JUGGERNAUT like you said.
Just dealt with the main board fan issue myself. Contacted support for another one, but a temp fix is just pull out the fan, and push the fan blades into the housing more, as I think their bearings go bad.
Thank you for bringing up the switching of filaments, such a basic feature, i was scratching my head trying to figure it out, i thought for sure i was missing something.
Hola Tio Jessy! Excellent video, my dear amigo!!!!! Muchas gracias for your support and for giving a chance to our models. Its a honor to have you in the community and cheers for many many more prints, my dude! Happy printing and stay Wicked!!!! Mucho mucho love for you!
I've been loving my X1 since the Kickstarter finished. Thanks for your thoughts Jessy. I switched to the high temp pei sheets and have never looked back. The only real issue I have with BambuLabs' build plates is those stickers like to bubble when your prints stick a little too well. Easy to fix with a plastic scraper and a few minutes of time, but I still get angry every time I have to get rid of the bubbles.
That stuff looks awesome, people that are negative to others usually are just mad that they can't figure out how to get their machine to work even with help. I love the Facebook groups they are all very supportive.
I haven’t got mine yet but I wish they had advertised more adequately how the nozzle change works… Since I’m not new to printing I made sure to order extra heaters and thermistors and took advantage of the free shipping by also ordering some nozzles. I like that I don’t have to deal with hot tightening with this machine and I thought I might be able to do a pretty fast nozzle swap by having alt nozzles pre set with a heater/thermistor but I now see that the hot end fan is attached to the nozzle assy… If I had known I would’ve ordered some extra fans and doing so now I have no idea when I’ll get them.
2:10 you mentioned the hum. That could be from the power supply since it has to pull power for running of course. If anything, a sleep mode would be nice just to give that supply a break while not fully operating. That would also kinda "shut down" everything, and like most computers and such in sleep mode, a quick tap on the screen would wake it up in a second.
I love your videos dude! Every time I click one of your thumbnails, I get ready to push my chair back away from my screen and say "HEY EVERYONE" with you 😆
If carbon rods produce a large amount of dust or wear off, then this doesn't sound too good to me. Will they last long? Not to mention any health issues. Gotta dig into that.
8:48 I have a weird nostalgia for MakerBot even though I never owned one. I've been following the 3d print scene since the late 2000s and MakerBot printers always had such a strong presence in the 2009-2016 timeframe. Even to this day I catch myself asking "I wonder what MakerBot is up to these days" before I remember they are basically dead. So sad. Well at least we still have Thingiverse hanging around.
I must have a miracle machine, I have not had any of these problems and the hair spray on the cold Plate has never had a print come loose or impossible to get off.
I so much appreciate your vid's, and updates, on how things are going with these printers. Have been wanting to get a P1P, as there is no way I'll be getting the X1 Carbon, mainly because of the price point. I will be waiting for some time though, to make sure the bugs, you and others have found,are taken care of, before making my purchase. Thanks Again
I don't have a bambu yet but I hope To get one soon, and I had a question and emailed them and got a reply about 35 minutes later which is really promising and exciting!
Awesome video! Haven't visited your channel before, but definitely subscribed. I recently got my P1P about 3 weeks ago, and I have already put over 300 hours on it :x
Heck yeah! I’m really really hoping some usability updates come to the p1p soon. Prints are looking great. Working with the machine can be a bit wonky at times. Also… wow! That’s a lot of printing!
Fantastic video. I was actually waiting for something like this since there are just too many "look what a great printer this is" videos. We all need input like this. Kudos to Bambu labs for their great level of support. I was going to build my own multi extruder/material printer but I am almost ready to pre-order the X1-Carbon+AMS bundle. There is just one little thing ... In the latest (Christmas gift) blog I read something about "communication with the cloud" and "print history from the cloud" and I am wondering what that cloud is being used for ? I am kind of expecting that this printer is able to be used without any cloud interaction and just send data from my local PC directly to my (local) printer without the the need to copy this through the internet. Is this "cloud" stuff only used for the mobile app or is the PC app also using the cloud when modeling/slicing/printing ?
I've been fantasizing about this printer and thinking it would be so hassle free and do amazing prints. I want, as makers muse said, to use it as a tool and not as a hobby. I have a vyper, it mostly works, but something that I can just feed prints to and make projects with is what i've wanted, these issues and silly hassles are going to make me hold on to my money until they fix them.
Great review! Hairspray works for me on the cool plate, I HATE gluestick. That said, I switched to textured on both my X1C and P1P and only use the cool plate if I have some really finicky item that ABSOLUTELY needs max adherence. Never had one stick so hard I could not get it off. I also vote for a 'load' button - I hear an update is coming soon, so please Bambu add this!
I'm actually in the market for a new 3D printer, and this looks very impressive. Though I'm giving a side eye to things like the strange way to load filament and the print surface looking the way it does. Reminds me of BuildTak sheets on the cold bed. Prints stick too well and you end up wrestling with getting the model off the plate. I'm surprised they didn't use a removable glass surface
Have you given a g10 build plate a shot? I have yet to have a print that wasn't 100 released from the build plate once it cooled. for me G10 works the way people describe PEI working. Add in the fact that it holds it's shape so it can compensate for slightly warped beds. Lightspeed has some pretty hig quality ones.
No shade, but other than a single clog (which I believe was my fault) my X1C with Ams has been flawless. I use both the textured pei and cool plate and no issues even with larger prints.
My x1 wont print with the abs in the ams. I dried it 8 hours at 80 degrees. Put it in the ams. Then when I select the 3d print after I get to choose the filament to use. Abs is there but its not a clickable option. Do you know why?
I recommend printing with Bambu filament for best results. I have found their filament to be much more reliable! Also I haven't really had any issues with the cool plate, perfect adhesion for me on all 3 of my X1 carbon printers. Great printers for sure! However, one of my printers has the buzzing fan issue though.
You may want to reach out to support regarding the fan issue. I sent in a support ticket for my fan yesterday and they offered to send me a $20 coupon to purchase a replacement from their store.
Why the need for whambam when the engineering plate is smooth? RE: Hairspray, I've tried them all and there is something magical about Suave Max Hold, highly recommended.
@Uncle Jessy Thanks for the update! It helps for owners to be aware. Have you noticed VFA issues on your prints and any advice how to address them on the X1C? People think the caused by a number of things, such as to slicer settings, smooth idler pulleys instead of toothed ones, extruder gear runout, belt tension, belts that are too short with too much tension, and belt quality (non-Gates belt). So far there doesn’t seem to be a fix - some people say print slower or faster but the issue is still apparent.
Oh wow I thought that was just my dirty machine. I have been noticing that more and more with some of my smooth prints where there is almost a slight texture to the prints
@@UncleJessy Yup, you’re not the only one. Following BambuLab’s maintenance guide helps a tiny bit but the VFA is still there. People might be ignoring the issue or it goes unnoticed on prints because some filaments hide it better. If you compare your first to most recent prints, do you see quality degrade? I hope people will be more vocal about it so the topic gains traction so either community fixes or BambuLab prioritizes a fix.
I have been enjoying my X1 with the AMS ! 200hrs. Yes ! the PEI build plate should come with every Bambu printer. So far ZYLTech filament has been running great for me. I do have one complaint, my printer seems to lose wifi connection alot, I have to reboot it a few times a week and when it loses connection you cannot monitor the printer with the app.
I had a major issue with the wifi on one of my machines then one of the recent updates seemed to fully resolve it for me. Hopefully a future update makes it more stable for you
I havent heard any humming from my printer. It might just be something that is wearing out on the machine and hopefully can be easily replaced. As for nozzle cleaner that keeps breaking for you there are actually some that you can print on Printables, some even claim to have made them better than the original, also the white part is apprently just PTFE tubing and there is also someone on Printables that made a jig so you can cut the PTFE tube the correct size. So rather than buying more you can potentially just print them. If you do please let us know how they work out since you use these printers so much you probably will be able to test them much better than the average person 😁
Hi Uncle Jesse can you please help me i need your help. I'm trying to print quite tall cylinder shapes on my elegoo saturn and the prints are saying 6hrs but the print is taking 22hrs?? i can't find anyhting on how to setup chitubox for faster printing and i know the Bottom lift speed and lifting speed have a big part to play but i'm to afraid to change these. can you please do a video showing in depth what we can do with these setting for chitubox V1.9.4. thank you so much
Uncle Jessy, I’ve been watching lots of your videos and reading a lot as I consider my first 3D printer. I was set on the Bambu Lab X1C and then I saw your short video on the Neptune 3 Max. The Neptune mainly interests me because of the massive build volume. I was wondering how you feel about the quality and capabilities compared to the X1C?
Hi ... I would LOOOOOVE to know more about the accuracy of this printer. For me accuracy is the most important thing, rather than speed. But I couldn't find ANY videos about the accuracy. I mean is like 1cm diameter in hte CAD program = 1cm printed? Or like 0.1mm = 0.1mm printed? You know what I mean? This is holding me back to buy one of theses machines right now. Thank you so much.
i was running out of filament on a print and i waited till the last of it was inside the tube and i then put in the new filament and pushed it in as the other kept going and my print printed fine lol. on a p1p too. Also when loading filament i push it all the way in and slightly give it an extra push once it stops so it extrudes. lol
So bout to pull the trigger I think on some Bambu stuff. I know in the past you have always preferred the .6 Nozzle. Do you recommend the .6 over the .4 on this printer. I know you liked it when you switched. Just curious. I am debating between the X1C and the P1S.
Wow.... these updates are enough to trigger me to go ahead and buy one. Not that I am unhappy with my Max Neo, but these seem to be light years ahead. Now to decide on X1C or X1.
Honestly can say you will love it. The x1 carbon printers I bought have been amazing. I would recommend the x1c over the standard x1 just for the extras like the camera / LiDAR etc
I have an X1 and I also have several Prusa machines and a Voron 2.4. The X1 is my new favorite hands down. It prints faster and nicer with much less effort than any printer I have used. So far I absolutely love it and it's been a great addition to my business. With that said, I got the X1 with the AMS and it has not worked from day one and getting issues like that solved with Bambu has been anything but seamless. I explained very clearly what was going on and they want video and a error file from the printer. Which I would normally understand but I was easily able to tell them the error code and the video does not show any better what's going on than how I can explain it since you can't see the issue but I can feel it when manually pushing the filament in and out of the unit. So jumping through run around hoops in my opinion. The AMS unit is still sitting collecting dust. I highly recommend the printer but the AMS is not ready for consumers IMHO. Look around, I'm not the only one complaining about the reliability of the AMS. But I will say it again, the printer is outstanding and I highly recommend it. Very impressive unit.
Do you know if there is a way to get one of the P1P to Mexico ???? I'm really frustrated because I can't find a way to get it. Thanks for this amazing video.
So odd you had issues on the cool plate. I have about 1400hrs on the cool plate and still on my original sticker.(PLA printing) and I used nano miner polymer as a release interface with no issues. I have the PEI sheet too and used it for about 2 weeks to add texture to some of my prints.
Would you recommend the x1c for quality . I'm looking for a printer with the best quality you can get from a printer. I have the ender 3 s1 pro and it does pretty decent but I can't get rid of the ringing or z banding .
Hey, i think i meant to say, your volume play back seems higher that average content. otherwise it sounds really good. very clear and very lil noise. :)
My ams unit gets lines in it and so multi color prints do not work for me. Support says it's normal but I don't think it is because my prusa mmu does not do it and my enraged rabbit feeder on my v400 does not do it ether. I have not had my purge wipe break but glad to know it's a possibility it could.
It is a great printer! Only negative is that you will have lots more waste materials in bad prints. Not because it fails more othen than other printers, but because it is just so damn fast! By the time you catch the error it has already printed a lot of material! At least that is what I noticed...
Great video as always. Glad to see that you’ve had better experience with the printers after the pre-production unit. Where can I find the articulated boo? I can’t seem to find it.
Great video, i have seen you use many many printers, can you make a video comparing the different multicolor/multimaterial options that you habe tested?. I know of the prusa mmu, the ams from bamboo labs, and the palette from mosaic, i am guessing you have tried them all, can you make a recomendation on what option would be best to get as i am planning to get a second printer with a multicolor option, i supose the go to would be bamboo labs, but my budget for replacement parts would be tiht after getting the new printer, what of the multico,or options you have tested is the most reliable one?
Hey Uncle Jessy, I am a bit torn with printers and need some solid feedback. I started my 3d printing journey with a Prusa mini and have been wanting to upgrade in the near future. I’ve been wondering whether I should go with the Prusa MK4 or go even higher on my budget and get the X1CC. I’ve never really printed a lot of multi color prints but the thought of having that capability sounds cool to me. So in your opinion where should I lean towards getting the X1CC or just X1C or the MK4?

Carbon nanotubes (not the same) result in similar lung damage as asbestos in studies.
Any hard to break down fibres with similar dimension as asbestos can cause similar damage…
Just felt the urge to mention it. ✌️
Thanks! Doing a big wipe down this evening / cleanup of all the loose bits
@@UncleJessy Use IPA or something to keep it wet while you do so, you're likely to kick up a bunch of it when cleaning.
It's probably ABS or CF-PLA dust.
do you know the difference between tubes and rods? scared me a little there
so its dangerous?
Ahhh I have a video coming out tomorrow that was gonna "reveal" a few of these things, but good job ;) You beat me to it lol
I think something to also note is i have had ALMOST NO ISSUES with silk on the x1 carbon ams. On my elegoos i'd have constant issues with perfection but these seem to print them perfect almost always which blows my mind.
Nice! For my x1 I ended up slowing down the external wall speeds which seems to help the glossy silk prints pop more
@@UncleJessy Yeah I definitely felt the need to make a separate silk preset to slow things down a bit. What speed did you settle on for some gloss?

Hey @Uncle Jessy, quick tip for extremely stuck prints. Drop a little bit of acetone on the build plate then pry off with metal spatula
Trying that today thanks! Those red prints I showed are not budging
I’m 600 hours in on my x1 carbon . I absolutely love it .
I just got my first X1C with AMS and I'm in love. I have 5 other printers (3 work) and I think I need to look into donating those to someone starting out. This thing is just a JUGGERNAUT like you said.

My modification to the cool plate is to sand it down with 80 grit and then use glue stick makes it easy to remove and sticks good still too.
For silk filament at those speeds you gotta have a hot nozzle. Maybe upping the temp 5 or 10 degrees could help
My P1P arrives this week. So excited.
Congrats! I have my complaints but the good news is it prints stupidly fast and the prints look awesome

I haven’t got mine yet but I wish they had advertised more adequately how the nozzle change works… Since I’m not new to printing I made sure to order extra heaters and thermistors and took advantage of the free shipping by also ordering some nozzles. I like that I don’t have to deal with hot tightening with this machine and I thought I might be able to do a pretty fast nozzle swap by having alt nozzles pre set with a heater/thermistor but I now see that the hot end fan is attached to the nozzle assy… If I had known I would’ve ordered some extra fans and doing so now I have no idea when I’ll get them.
2:10 you mentioned the hum. That could be from the power supply since it has to pull power for running of course. If anything, a sleep mode would be nice just to give that supply a break while not fully operating. That would also kinda "shut down" everything, and like most computers and such in sleep mode, a quick tap on the screen would wake it up in a second.
I love your videos dude! Every time I click one of your thumbnails, I get ready to push my chair back away from my screen and say "HEY EVERYONE" with you 😆
😂🤣 thanks… you should hear my boys making fun of me while I edit in the kitchen
@UncleJessy 😆😄😀🔥 seriously though you're the reason I now own a resin printer and it's been a blast. I have so much fun with it
Ive been dealing the ripple issues since day 1. I really wanted to love my x1c so I hope they offer a replacement
If carbon rods produce a large amount of dust or wear off, then this doesn't sound too good to me. Will they last long? Not to mention any health issues. Gotta dig into that.
I had the hum too. They are sending me a new main board fan. They said the one that will be in stock on January 30th should fix the issue.
Oh fantastic. Mine is now significantly louder since recording. I will reachout to support
8:48 I have a weird nostalgia for MakerBot even though I never owned one. I've been following the 3d print scene since the late 2000s and MakerBot printers always had such a strong presence in the 2009-2016 timeframe. Even to this day I catch myself asking "I wonder what MakerBot is up to these days" before I remember they are basically dead. So sad. Well at least we still have Thingiverse hanging around.
I spray windex, lightly wipe off leaving a light residue thats smooth. and everything comes off very easily when it cools.
I must have a miracle machine, I have not had any of these problems and the hair spray on the cold Plate has never had a print come loose or impossible to get off.
That Juggernaut wall art is crazy!
Heck yeah man! Now wishing I printed it larger 😂🤣 gotta try and paint it up a bit
What is the full list of spare parts you would recommend to pick up when ordering your first X1 ?
I so much appreciate your vid's, and updates, on how things are going with these printers. Have been wanting to get a P1P, as there is no way I'll be getting the X1 Carbon, mainly because of the price point. I will be waiting for some time though, to make sure the bugs, you and others have found,are taken care of, before making my purchase. Thanks Again
Just ordered a carbon with AMS. Thanks for the video.
I don't have a bambu yet but I hope To get one soon, and I had a question and emailed them and got a reply about 35 minutes later which is really promising and exciting!
Awesome video! Haven't visited your channel before, but definitely subscribed. I recently got my P1P about 3 weeks ago, and I have already put over 300 hours on it :x
Heck yeah! I’m really really hoping some usability updates come to the p1p soon. Prints are looking great. Working with the machine can be a bit wonky at times. Also… wow! That’s a lot of printing!
@@UncleJessy cosplay crunch time 👀👀👀👀
Fantastic video. I was actually waiting for something like this since there are just too many "look what a great printer this is" videos.
We all need input like this. Kudos to Bambu labs for their great level of support. I was going to build my own multi extruder/material printer but I am almost ready to pre-order the X1-Carbon+AMS bundle. There is just one little thing ... In the latest (Christmas gift) blog I read something about "communication with the cloud" and "print history from the cloud" and I am wondering what that cloud is being used for ? I am kind of expecting that this printer is able to be used without any cloud interaction and just send data from my local PC directly to my (local) printer without the the need to copy this through the internet. Is this "cloud" stuff only used for the mobile app or is the PC app also using the cloud when modeling/slicing/printing ?
I haven’t noticed any humming noises outside of printing on my carbon, but I do have an occasional weird electrical hum from my p1p
Yeah unfortunately my oldest x1 is now even louder than when I recorded this
I've been fantasizing about this printer and thinking it would be so hassle free and do amazing prints. I want, as makers muse said, to use it as a tool and not as a hobby. I have a vyper, it mostly works, but something that I can just feed prints to and make projects with is what i've wanted, these issues and silly hassles are going to make me hold on to my money until they fix them.
Great review! Hairspray works for me on the cool plate, I HATE gluestick. That said, I switched to textured on both my X1C and P1P and only use the cool plate if I have some really finicky item that ABSOLUTELY needs max adherence. Never had one stick so hard I could not get it off. I also vote for a 'load' button - I hear an update is coming soon, so please Bambu add this!
I'm actually in the market for a new 3D printer, and this looks very impressive. Though I'm giving a side eye to things like the strange way to load filament and the print surface looking the way it does. Reminds me of BuildTak sheets on the cold bed. Prints stick too well and you end up wrestling with getting the model off the plate.
I'm surprised they didn't use a removable glass surface
glass is less popular since it can't flex, and some filament will bond to it.
@@IrocZIV very true and even waiting for the plate to cool might not make it easy to remove the print
A few folks in the comments have suggestions I’m going to be trying out with the standard buildplate/sheets to see if I can make them last longer
I'm also checking the specs and I WISH I could print Nylon filament for things like helmets
its your motherboard fan put a noc in it.that helmet fits great aswell plus you can print the nozzle wipes now from printables
1. Will have to look up the fan thing as I have zero idea
2. WHAT!?! Nozzle Wipes now on printables!?!
Noctua fans aren't good they have reduced airflow bambu lab is updating the fans to be ball bearing so they won't fail
@@Condamine123456 I HATE when companies skimp on good fans, it drives me nuts. I’ll spend the extra five dollars to have fans that last lol.
For the cold plate you can get a hot plate sticker and slap that on. It is smooth pei sheet and has been fantastic. No glue or hairspray needed.
Have you given a g10 build plate a shot? I have yet to have a print that wasn't 100 released from the build plate once it cooled. for me G10 works the way people describe PEI working. Add in the fact that it holds it's shape so it can compensate for slightly warped beds. Lightspeed has some pretty hig quality ones.
No shade, but other than a single clog (which I believe was my fault) my X1C with Ams has been flawless. I use both the textured pei and cool plate and no issues even with larger prints.
Heck yeah that is awesome to hear. I’ve had more issues with the ams that anything but I still want to potentially get a 2nd ams unit
Did you try printing the muffler?? I put one on my machine and it did reduce the sound a bit.
I do dislike it makes noise when it's left idle too
Ohhh wil look into that thanks!
My x1 wont print with the abs in the ams. I dried it 8 hours at 80 degrees. Put it in the ams. Then when I select the 3d print after I get to choose the filament to use. Abs is there but its not a clickable option. Do you know why?
i think now a days they do include the textured build plate with the x1 carbon not shure myself yet wating on myne to show up
I recommend printing with Bambu filament for best results. I have found their filament to be much more reliable! Also I haven't really had any issues with the cool plate, perfect adhesion for me on all 3 of my X1 carbon printers. Great printers for sure! However, one of my printers has the buzzing fan issue though.
I have use a few of their rolls and agree the prints are near flawless. They really did calibrate the machines extremely well to those spools
You may want to reach out to support regarding the fan issue. I sent in a support ticket for my fan yesterday and they offered to send me a $20 coupon to purchase a replacement from their store.
If they're bearing type fans, can't they be upgraded to a nonbearing fan? That should resolve the humming issue and increase lifespan.
I love the review it's exactly what I was looking to know before I considered getting one I am very interested and excited to see the p1p review.
With the standard bed I run the bed at 55deg for PLA and they stick well and release well…
Why the need for whambam when the engineering plate is smooth? RE: Hairspray, I've tried them all and there is something magical about Suave Max Hold, highly recommended.
Oh I didn’t even think of trying PLA on the opposite side 😂🤣
Awesome overview. I SO don't need another printer but man has it been tempting to snag one of these.🙃
@Uncle Jessy Thanks for the update! It helps for owners to be aware. Have you noticed VFA issues on your prints and any advice how to address them on the X1C? People think the caused by a number of things, such as to slicer settings, smooth idler pulleys instead of toothed ones, extruder gear runout, belt tension, belts that are too short with too much tension, and belt quality (non-Gates belt). So far there doesn’t seem to be a fix - some people say print slower or faster but the issue is still apparent.
Oh wow I thought that was just my dirty machine. I have been noticing that more and more with some of my smooth prints where there is almost a slight texture to the prints
@@UncleJessy Yup, you’re not the only one. Following BambuLab’s maintenance guide helps a tiny bit but the VFA is still there. People might be ignoring the issue or it goes unnoticed on prints because some filaments hide it better. If you compare your first to most recent prints, do you see quality degrade? I hope people will be more vocal about it so the topic gains traction so either community fixes or BambuLab prioritizes a fix.
Definitely want to get one of these some day!
I am definitely interested in this, but I think I might wait for v2 of the X1CC.
13:43 Printing thing while talking about printing things
🖐️ I think you are the only one that noticed that 😂🤣🤘
I have been enjoying my X1 with the AMS ! 200hrs. Yes ! the PEI build plate should come with every Bambu printer. So far ZYLTech filament has been running great for me. I do have one complaint, my printer seems to lose wifi connection alot, I have to reboot it a few times a week and when it loses connection you cannot monitor the printer with the app.
I had a major issue with the wifi on one of my machines then one of the recent updates seemed to fully resolve it for me. Hopefully a future update makes it more stable for you
@@UncleJessy it’s most likely a issue that can be resolved with a update 🤞
@@RCPhotosVideos also running a lot of Zyltech PLA as well and prints like a charm
How do you work up new profiles for filaments that are not Bamboo labs filaments?
You can start with a default profile they provide, tweak settings as needed and then SAVE As your own profile.
I havent heard any humming from my printer. It might just be something that is wearing out on the machine and hopefully can be easily replaced.
As for nozzle cleaner that keeps breaking for you there are actually some that you can print on Printables, some even claim to have made them better than the original, also the white part is apprently just PTFE tubing and there is also someone on Printables that made a jig so you can cut the PTFE tube the correct size.
So rather than buying more you can potentially just print them. If you do please let us know how they work out since you use these printers so much you probably will be able to test them much better than the average person 😁
when are we likely to see a new version of the x1?
Hi Uncle Jesse can you please help me i need your help. I'm trying to print quite tall cylinder shapes on my elegoo saturn and the prints are saying 6hrs but the print is taking 22hrs?? i can't find anyhting on how to setup chitubox for faster printing and i know the Bottom lift speed and lifting speed have a big part to play but i'm to afraid to change these. can you please do a video showing in depth what we can do with these setting for chitubox V1.9.4. thank you so much
Any update on the top layers of a rounded print? Has it been improved?
The P1P has an unload/load option though? 5:35
Uncle Jessy, I’ve been watching lots of your videos and reading a lot as I consider my first 3D printer. I was set on the Bambu Lab X1C and then I saw your short video on the Neptune 3 Max.
The Neptune mainly interests me because of the massive build volume. I was wondering how you feel about the quality and capabilities compared to the X1C?
Hi ... I would LOOOOOVE to know more about the accuracy of this printer. For me accuracy is the most important thing, rather than speed. But I couldn't find ANY videos about the accuracy. I mean is like 1cm diameter in hte CAD program = 1cm printed? Or like 0.1mm = 0.1mm printed? You know what I mean? This is holding me back to buy one of theses machines right now. Thank you so much.
13:52 "...past handful of months" I see what you did there.
Can the printer be put in a low power low noise standby mode where you can wake it up by initiating a 3D print over WiFi?
really hope they release a XL version of X1C that is 350x350x350
Did they improve the noise level in general? Maybe shut down the fan when not printing?
i was running out of filament on a print and i waited till the last of it was inside the tube and i then put in the new filament and pushed it in as the other kept going and my print printed fine lol. on a p1p too. Also when loading filament i push it all the way in and slightly give it an extra push once it stops so it extrudes. lol
So bout to pull the trigger I think on some Bambu stuff. I know in the past you have always preferred the .6 Nozzle. Do you recommend the .6 over the .4 on this printer. I know you liked it when you switched. Just curious. I am debating between the X1C and the P1S.
I noticed that you didn't talk about the purge. Can you made a video regarding your settings in this matter?
i have 4 but i need more money for more i love thi insane bambu printer
I have issues with the p1p but debating on buying a 2nd just so I can have 4 bambu printers I can run jobs on. Jelly of that setup
@Uncle Jessy that why I bought carbonx1 less issues than p1p
Wow.... these updates are enough to trigger me to go ahead and buy one.
Not that I am unhappy with my Max Neo, but these seem to be light years ahead.
Now to decide on X1C or X1.
Honestly can say you will love it. The x1 carbon printers I bought have been amazing. I would recommend the x1c over the standard x1 just for the extras like the camera / LiDAR etc
@Uncle Jessy thanks for the advice. I know how busy your are, so the response is much appreciated.
@@graphguy what’s funny is the x1 machines & my AnkerMake have made me more excited about fdm printing again. Really fun to print witb
@Uncle Jessy ok now you throw in another option, M5! The only issue I see with it is that it maxes out at 260C.
@@graphguy also remember that the anker is around 2x slower in speed, 6x slower in accels, and has around half the volumetric flow.
I have an X1 and I also have several Prusa machines and a Voron 2.4. The X1 is my new favorite hands down. It prints faster and nicer with much less effort than any printer I have used. So far I absolutely love it and it's been a great addition to my business. With that said, I got the X1 with the AMS and it has not worked from day one and getting issues like that solved with Bambu has been anything but seamless. I explained very clearly what was going on and they want video and a error file from the printer. Which I would normally understand but I was easily able to tell them the error code and the video does not show any better what's going on than how I can explain it since you can't see the issue but I can feel it when manually pushing the filament in and out of the unit. So jumping through run around hoops in my opinion. The AMS unit is still sitting collecting dust. I highly recommend the printer but the AMS is not ready for consumers IMHO. Look around, I'm not the only one complaining about the reliability of the AMS. But I will say it again, the printer is outstanding and I highly recommend it. Very impressive unit.
Do you know if there is a way to get one of the P1P to Mexico ???? I'm really frustrated because I can't find a way to get it. Thanks for this amazing video.
Will you be making a video on the Neptune Max? Been waiting for it so I can decide between that and the plus.
Jesse, do you have any coverage on printing TPU on a X1 Carbon ?
So odd you had issues on the cool plate. I have about 1400hrs on the cool plate and still on my original sticker.(PLA printing) and I used nano miner polymer as a release interface with no issues. I have the PEI sheet too and used it for about 2 weeks to add texture to some of my prints.
Wow really!! I’ve gone through a handful. Definitely going to be trying some other adhesive/residue options for it
Would you recommend the x1c for quality . I'm looking for a printer with the best quality you can get from a printer. I have the ender 3 s1 pro and it does pretty decent but I can't get rid of the ringing or z banding .
13:53 "...over the past handful of months". Iseewhatyoudidthere
Hey, i think i meant to say, your volume play back seems higher that average content.
otherwise it sounds really good. very clear and very lil noise. :)
My ams unit gets lines in it and so multi color prints do not work for me. Support says it's normal but I don't think it is because my prusa mmu does not do it and my enraged rabbit feeder on my v400 does not do it ether. I have not had my purge wipe break but glad to know it's a possibility it could.
Lines like I was showing in my magneto helmet print? That’s the only time I’ve had it print a completely wrong color for 2 layers
@@UncleJessy ya. Like it's just a line that's a color it shouldn't be but it's through most of the print. If I could upload photos here I would.
I have adhesion problem with textured ln P1P . I don t use glue . I came from prusa where on the pei sheet everything go perfect .
does getting a smooth surface depends on the filament or the printer?
how to turn off bambo X1 carbon, or is there idle option? :D
It is a great printer! Only negative is that you will have lots more waste materials in bad prints. Not because it fails more othen than other printers, but because it is just so damn fast! By the time you catch the error it has already printed a lot of material!
At least that is what I noticed...
Great video as always. Glad to see that you’ve had better experience with the printers after the pre-production unit.
Where can I find the articulated boo? I can’t seem to find it.
Great video, i have seen you use many many printers, can you make a video comparing the different multicolor/multimaterial options that you habe tested?. I know of the prusa mmu, the ams from bamboo labs, and the palette from mosaic, i am guessing you have tried them all, can you make a recomendation on what option would be best to get as i am planning to get a second printer with a multicolor option, i supose the go to would be bamboo labs, but my budget for replacement parts would be tiht after getting the new printer, what of the multico,or options you have tested is the most reliable one?
Hey Uncle Jessy, I am a bit torn with printers and need some solid feedback. I started my 3d printing journey with a Prusa mini and have been wanting to upgrade in the near future. I’ve been wondering whether I should go with the Prusa MK4 or go even higher on my budget and get the X1CC. I’ve never really printed a lot of multi color prints but the thought of having that capability sounds cool to me. So in your opinion where should I lean towards getting the X1CC or just X1C or the MK4?
what is the name of the software you are using at 1:29
