    I'm so happy it worked well for you! Thank you for such a great review. I could definitely add that mesh pattern under the eyes as well if you think it would be helpful!

    • @benwitten5656

      Omfg that is absolutely brilliant! So much less wasted filament! I 100% support this

    • @willpage06
      @willpage06 Год назад +9

      It would be really useful across all your amazing helmets to help save filament and prints!

    • @davedixon2167
      @davedixon2167 Год назад +1

      WOW this is such an amazing idea, GA - I'm trying to work on a stylized model based on Mega Man and even test prints have eaten up so much time and filament, largely because of that damn widow's peak. Definitely going to try modeling something like that support mesh in Fusion myself.

    • @markmorgan8378

    • @Nicholas_H

      Yes, please add this type of built in support on your helmets- it would make it so helpful!!

  • @RyoHazuki224
    @RyoHazuki224 10 месяцев назад +7

    That would be amazing if some slicers could just generate a thin support wall or pattern in overhangs like this, like just define from one section to another. I would work for so, so many types of prints that have odd overhangs but you may just need like a small angled support structure, instead of making the support stretch alllll the way to the build plate!

    @4:00 Jessy, as far as the helmet sizing ring goes. When you load a new helmet, just stop the printer after 5-10 layers and remove the ring and check. been doing that for years

  • @Balrog132

  • @shanematthews1985

  • @colinfielder6695

  • @ThatWillWilkins
    @ThatWillWilkins Год назад

    I printed my first helmet for Halloween. I used your sizing guide method to make sure I had a good fit. Saved so much time and filament!

  • @JimmieZ89
    @JimmieZ89 Год назад +20

    This is something I had to to myself when printing helmets with overhangs like that. I's nice that Galactic Armory is doing this now but I really wish slicers would give you this option to place them yourself just like this example for areas like that.

    • @MB-rh3vo
      @MB-rh3vo Год назад

      IIRC you actually can by including a free defined object defined as a support.

    More creators should be adding in built in supports. I'm printing a R5 Droid and Michael Baddeley has some ingenious methods for his built in supports.

  • @AstrocyteCosplay
    @AstrocyteCosplay Год назад +1

    Such an awesome idea! Way less filament and saves that nose piece failing. Even though I had supported mine well it wobbled and I had to tap it to allow it to finish. Have a layer shift that I will need to fix but at least it still printed. This is a much better idea!

  • @hybrispsycho1

    Wheres your elegoo neptune 4 plus video o and profiles?

  • @claws61821
    @claws61821 Год назад

    There used to be some makers on RUclips who offered amazing tutorials on modeling print in place custom supports that went into detail on how to determine where they were needed, how to minimize material, the best gaps to use to maximize support and minimize adhesion (so that you could just peel them off or out as easily as a raft)...

  • @labiq1896
    @labiq1896 Год назад +1

    Weakness is if you scale it up/down, the integrated support too will scale along with it but its just some minor waste so no problem (unless you have a bad cooling settings when printing the small hexagon parts)

  • @Pyromancers
    @Pyromancers Год назад +2

    I feel like the top of the helmet would turn out better and require less filling to clean up with a bit of adaptive layering. Starting to do .1mm layer height as it gets to top and finish on .05mm layer height at very top where the stepping becomes very noticable. I think I will be doing that in my future helmets. nice work and thanks for putting this honeycomb inbuilt support concept on our radar. I like Galactic Armory, but I really am loving Pew Pew Crafts helmets. Should give 'em a look if you haven't already.

  • @3DJapan

  • @thomashutter5499
    @thomashutter5499 Год назад

    Why I have never thought of that. Just Slice the helmet and check if it fits 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ I wanted badly to print a helmet for fun, but always thinking if it will fit on the Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro. Now I just can tray in 20min.
    Thank you …

  • @jasonjulian1
    @jasonjulian1 Год назад +3

    it’s a brilliant addition to the file that solves a common problem.
    but couldn’t you take the same helmet file and import it into a resin slicer like Chitubox or lychee, manually add resin supports, thicknesses and diamete adjusted to be compatible with FDM nozzle sizes, and then just save and export that supported file as a new STL?

    • @Suzukirider

  • @MMsPropShop
    @MMsPropShop Год назад +14

    It was pretty disappointing to see Galactic Armory take credit for this idea after ChamanleonFX and other designers had been working on perfecting the concept for a while now. I hope in a future video appropriate credit can be given to the original makers of this excellent idea.
    It’s also not just a case of unknowingly coming up with a similar idea. There have been multiple mentions of shady business practices behind the scenes from other creators. Has definitely deterred me from ever wanting to promote GA’s work on my channel again.

    • @GalacticArmory
      @GalacticArmory 9 месяцев назад

      It's kind of funny to read comments like these, that are all secondhand rumor and gossip so far from the truth. It comes with the territory of success though so I'll do my best to ease your concerns!
      I had to actually go back and look up Josh's work to find what you were referring to. Finally found it on page 7 of his Sabine helmet! Yes it looks like we had similar ideas on how to solve a common problem 4 months apart. Coincidences do happen of course and I think it's pretty obvious to see they are totally different approaches. As far as the "other creators" go, I'm not sure what they said but have always run GA as honestly as I could! If they have problems with me they're always able to message me directly about it, but I think it's telling that I have no idea who you're referring to.
      It seems like you've already made up your mind about me based on conversations with others but my DMs are always open if you want to chat about any concerns you have directly to me!

  • @TheNextDecade
    @TheNextDecade Год назад +3

    I haven’t had a chance to print the new file yet, but that looks absolutely amazing. It would be really cool if more and more slicers could have some thing like this, where these a grid that we can place in certain areas as support instead of just using their basic supports. Galactic Armory is really cool I love those guys. Theyre onto something great there.

Should I sell it and by the max 4 I bought it from ElGoo and just got stuck with not having a space for it now I have a space for it and now I’m not sure I even want to open the box maybe make it to someone else’s thing. Also as always thank you for the video I’m not sure a helmet I could print on my bambu X1C Will fit my fat head but after its current print I’ll see about printing that sizing thing and maybe I’ll make one this weekend. I have over $600 in my shopping cart on Bambu Website because I’m getting a new AMS so I can do eight colors and I’m getting extra parts and a bunch of LED for the lanterns I’m selling.

      It’s basically an unspoken agreement for cosplay. Disney won’t go after cosplayers because it’s advertising for the IP. But it’s not legal. So Disney can and will shut down people at anytime. But it’s not likely so long as you don’t get greedy and start mass producing these.

    This is something that's been happening for a while now where the author will build in supports MechG for example make some very nice rockets that are 3D printable and he builds in supports that work amazingly well
    Now the novel idea of creating a hexagon matrix to make that support is pretty darn cool as well and looks like it's very easy to remove and also big one here produces very little waste this is especially nice when you're using expensive filaments :-) Wear waste just makes you cry
    Also be careful what finger you're using when you point to stuff on screen some could take quite offense to that :-) hehehe
