I'm so glad you are back Mr. Murray-Smith!
cheers mate
Definitely glad to see you back Sir!
Your local birds are clearly as excited as you are with The Monster. 😊 Yes, I'm excited to see what you do with it. Surprise us do!
lol - they are nesting under the eaves right now
A vertical windturbine for the backyard!, printed with carbonfiber PC blend(don't forget to cover the printer with a reflective thermal blanket).
nice one mate
RMS back in the house! Looking well mate, nice to have you back on the screen. 👍
cheers mate
Glad to see you back. May the good Lord bless and keep you. How about a the largest T-Rex skull possible.
cheers mate - and nice one!
Nice to see you Robert doing what you love fella. Impressive machine to say the least.
cheers mate - and yes it is
A huge printer like this will be great for creating blanks for making the moulds for at home mass production for repeat casting and injection moulding.
yes it will
Extremely gratified to see you posting videos again.
cheers mate
I am fairly certain that the power connector is a standard IEC C19, as used on many high capacity UPS's. Long cables with UK plugs and IEC C19 connectors are easy to find on Amazon.
yeah i agree 100%. it's a C19 plug we have them on our UPS and PDUs
Yes, looked like a 16A connector to me.
cheers mate - i didn't know that - thanks for sharing
Elegoo sure has made the setup of this machine easy to understand and work with compared to other manufacturers. Looking forward to seeing what you decide to print.
I am glad that you explained about using a multimeter to double check the wire continuity... Thanks for the video review.
cheers mate
Nice job! How about printing a larger version of one of your wind turbine blade thingies
spot on mate
Now there is no stopping what you can make now
some exciting things for sure!
Omg. Life went on and i was not realising your loss. My condolences. I hope you find the strength to keep on going.
this is more a thought for elegoo than you.. but since a lot of heat is lost from the bed to the atmophere.. and I wonder if instead of enclosing the whole thing (Still a large volume to heat) if it could have a 'top' that rises with the extruder, and maybe accordion sides that rise with the z axis. basically creating the smallest volume to heat and retain heat while adding neat zero mass for the printer to work with.
would make bed heating faster and might work better with some materials like petg or abs. ;-)
if you have contacts, please pass it on!
i will do mate - though i have to tell you elegoo read these comments too
Putting on the ritz 😂❤️❤️👍🏼
lol
So good to see you back sharing your incredible energy again, I have always enjoyed absorbing your intellectual knowledge, Blessings to you and your family. I would love to see that awesome looking new large scale wind ball shaped turbine, image capturing/creating an entire homes worth of electricity with a few turbines on your rooftop.
Peace, Norman
Yay Robert, that printer looks awesome. You MUST print yourself now. I think its a rule somewhere. Rule #1 if you have a printer big enough to print yourself, you therefore MUST! Cheers from Canada. 😊
lol - well if it is a rule! lol
Wind turbine designs galore to be printed
in life size!
Glad to see how much your channel has grown over the years! Love the videos!
One of the things I use my 3d printer is to make molds to make carbon fiber pieces. My printer isn’t quite as large as yours 😂 so it takes several prints to make a sizable piece.
The plug is a standard higher current than the kettle type but same series. IEC320 C21
I came for the comment
cheers mate
👀Nice and big 3d printer, can’t wait to see what you print, must take 5 kg spools.
cheers mate and yes i am going to have to get some!
Lovely to hear your voice. Greatest sympathies sir. If you need an adventure to go on, I asked Way out West if he'd have you for a visit if you can make your way across St George Channel some time. You're one of the best parts of youtube and oddly enough I found you looking for an old physics professor Dr. Murray!
The build quality looks very sturdy,love how easy to use the interface is,thats a nice piece of machinery
yes i liked the interface
@@ThinkingandTinkering cant wait too see the projects that u get to do with it
I kind of want to see a wind generator with 2 sets of blades in opposing rotation, and compare the performance of the scale up from the previous prototype, if it behaves as expected, or has problems with scale or material strength. It's visually stunning. But anticipate flying blades, have a remote engagable brake or something to release or apply at will from a safe distance, pull string or remote servo, etc.
wow - i was thinking that!
Thak you for sharing this, i have few old printers and i think it is just relaxing to watch something get printed. This is a monster :) looking forward to see some prints!
Can't wait to see what's to come. Welcome back and thanks for sharing.
Good lord. The size of that thing! How exciting 😄
it truly is!
Make a life size statue of Robert Murray-Smith....🤪🤓
lol
Hello, it is good to see you back and with the same mood . You are an exemple to me and others. Sheers ! FM 🍀🐝🌞
Hat's off Robert.....very thorough Tutorial.
Cheers gov.🍻
cheers mate
Looks like a proper prototype making machine. Lots of scope to what you can do now. 👍
i agree mate
Glad to see you back... thanks for sharing :)
Thank you Robert! Love and peace to you. Just remember that Grief is love with no place to go,that's why it hurts so much. I am debilitated most days by complicated grief but your videos help,staying busy is important. Love to you sir
that is a really nice way to put that mate - cheers
Delighted to hear/see you. Keep making great content
thank you mate
I can see a stormtrooper helmet closely followed by the armour to go with it 🤣👍
Print the world, always handy to have a spare one.
It's great to have you back I have missed you but I do know about loss & I respect your decisions & I have been thinking about you.
thank you mate - it's baby steps for a while i think
Glad to see you back Robert. Too small for this printer but would love someone to upload specs for all those fridge door trays that crack way before the fridge is obsolescent. Create a print on demand with list of fridge trays available. Business idea for anyone?
@Robert Murray-Smith you are so lucky to have such a cool full size printer. Use it well, print big. Can't wait to see what you decide to print.
You will not forget her but time will ease the pain. God bless from NZ
What a nice machine Rob. It looks really well made and good value. watching this series with a lot of interest. Great to have you back as well. I dread to think what sort of sized wind turbine you could print on that 😂. There is a flying model airliner i have seen on RUclips and the print plans are about 50quid.. it uses lightweight filament. upscaled to fit your bed, it'd be an absolute monster model lol. i really want one of these printers. 😱
That's a 16A C19 plug - not proprietory. I wonder if they used that as the heated bed pulls more than the 10A rating of a normal IEC - the European Schuko plug that was fitted is rated for 16A - if it's over 10A it could be marginal for a 13A socket .
thank you mate - i didn't know that and that is good info - thanks for sharing - but a 16A rating is plenty it is double the draw - which is going to be at most 8A
Wind turbine blade designs to test efficiency of each blade design 👍 good to see you again Rob
Robert, I hope that you are having a great start to your week. Sheila Mink in New Mexico
Welcome back,build huge worm gear to plug on large generators,use one large solar panel ,to make big energy 😊
I have soo missed you very much. You just made my day soo much better.. Thank you for coming back..
wow - thank you mate
Great to see you back making videos.
cheers mate
Wow, that's what I call a 3-D printer!
it is a beast lol
can literally print a chair with that thing, actually awesome
glad to see you back, man that thing is big, you could print a life size baby in there
lol - yes you could lol
That is one big printer. I can see there are going to be some nice long prints, it would be cool to have a time lapse video.
You have truly becomes Tony Stark 😂
So great to see you back my friend I am getting equipped bit by bit nearly ready to do graphine
So looking forward to it
With your support
Speak soon 🥇👍🏻👀
Just going to say , Glad to see you!and wow that is huge!
cheers mate and yes it is!
a big intricate pigeon house!
nice one!
@@ThinkingandTinkering i imagine it modular, being ready for expansion or exchange. with a self cleaning tray, counterweight elevator and all sorts of safe chambers behind soft braided veils for the chicks... God speed!
Glad to see you back, Rob!!! This was a great video!!!!
cheers mate
This is cool, I can't wait to see you make with it. Thank you!
on it mate lol
This is the perfect printer to print vertical wind turbines in one go. It would also be good to print nicely sized fountains, a dog house, bench tops with trays for tools and parts, filament spool containers, big Tesla turbines, a bicycle, and so much more!
yes it is!
Nice work Rob, bloody huge beast , I am trying to think of useful things that can be built . PLA mold metal casting engine blocks?
that would be cool!
Oh this is awesome.. I can't wait to see your future projects with turbines etc!!
Great to see you back!! Can't wait to see what you print!! :-)
cheers mate
Good to see you back at it.👍 How about scaling up one of your wind turbines?
it is certainly something i was thinking about mate
I've built myself a very large printer a few years ago.. First thing i see:
is there a built plate you can take of? Use a printing surface? Something like a sheet of paper or plastic and clip it with decent clips onto the build plate..
if a print gets really stuck on the bed, you almost have to destroy the entire printer to get it of the (heated?) bed...
I had a very thin piece of plywood with blue painters tape on it, so you can take the entire print out, and as the panel bends, it's easy to release the print from the plate..
Hey Rob, you'll be able to 3d print yourself with that big boy😊...... welcome back mate👍😁
lol - yes i will lol - and cheers mate
Awesome. I am so glad to see you again. You promised to take it easy, remember?
Hi Robert yes that was certainly a monster 3D printer the scale of it is enormous compared to most I've seen. The only thought I had is if you've got underfloor heating certain types might make the bed uneven during heating process.
Glad to see you back Rob.
cheers mate
For a mad scientist, I must say your home looks quite in order. My first experience with 3 D printing was about 32 years ago, set up a convention for 3D printing . I wS amazed at what they could do one made ball bearing races out of a ceramic material, printing a wax in the voids , tap it on the table the wax fell out turned to dust at room temperature. All the parts for a small block Chevy engine , now that was tempting 1/10 scale . As a modeler I could see a tiny dragster ...take care . In my years of setting up such things I learned to wire in many nationalities ...what's life without a challenge?
I agree mate challenge is what you need!
looking forward to see what you use this giant printer for 👍
One huge benchy, or a thousand teeny tiny ones🤔 It's good to see you again, take care.
lol - cheers mate
This is way better than the Mecanno Set I grew up with :)
how things gave changed!
So good to see you publishing again. Robert steady as you go. Try 1/4 Speed until, you get your feet back under you. You have just been through a terrible storm. Calmer Seas ahead is my hope. One Day calm seas, and wind at your back.
you are right mate - i am going to do videos but not at the rate i used to for sure
Robert! I am so good that you are up and making videos again. We support you fully if you need anything! Concerning this monster of a 3D printer: Will you have to bundle up a fist full of those large glue sticks to help detach very large printed objects from this massive base?
cheers mate - and i was pondering that about the glue sticks - i am going to try without and see what happens if iget too many fails i might print a multistick holder
Yes, a monster 3D printer requires you to be "Puttin’ on the Ritz"! Possibly you could mix up some Elmers Glue to make a large stick or spray-on glue accessory for the printer.
Surely adjustable feet should not effect the levelling of the bed ???
is it accurate to say that if you scan yourself, and print as a hollow shell, you could have a full sized statue of you in 2 prints? maybe different versions for the garden.. the thinker.. the guy who just hit his thumb with a hammer... y'know, the classics. ;-D
yes you could - i was pondering a life size terracotta warrior for the garden
You gotta teach us 3d-printing-to-metal techniques ❤
i will have to have a think about it mate - cheers
@@ThinkingandTinkering a bit off topic but I gotta ask! Have you seen Bob Lazar's of interview "who's killing the hydrogen car" ? It's incredible, you got to see it, and hopefully cover it. Thanks for responding you are one of the best! 💜✨
I will go have a look now mate - cheers
@@ThinkingandTinkering Wow! I'm so curious to get your impression. I think it's an absolute gem. And a dream of mine to realize.
Personally I'd love to see a max print size generating omnidirectional wind ball. You know, the one that was made reverse engineering the grandchildren's toy, then upgraded to lift type.
Oooh can't wait to see what interesting things you will experiment with a bigger perspective.
I'm wondering if you plan to try some of your old wind turbines experiences with it .
Wouldn't it be fun to print a huge wall of vertical wall turbines ?
i do plan on revisiting a few things mate
That's a big beast!
In leveling the distance between the print head and the bed, it's just an old-fashioned feeler-gauge. Ah, sometimes the simple things are the best, eh?
yes it is - just a feeler guage - simplest is always best mate lol
The printer is sturdy enough that it should be level for quite some time. Of course, that's what you'd expect for industrial-grade machinery.
yes absolutely
Easy Peasy. Thank you.
the funniest thing to do would be to first print something really really really small...
😊
I worry about temperature fluctuations next to the window because it's a large metal contraption with a thermal coefficient of expansion. People with large CNC machines put them in temperature controlled rooms. Anyway, these Chines made products designed for export to the US have to meet certain electrical standards, hence the breaker switch and heavy gauge wires.
If the old thing but bigger is a vertical axis wind turbine blade, YES PLEASE
Welcome back! Thank you for the videos, they are very informative and will refer to them again as my Giga will be arriving in a month or so. By any chance did you have to update the firmware?
oh wow - you got one! awesome job mate and no i didn't have to update the firmware - yet!
What a great machine ❤😊
Yes
it is awesome
hopefully they'll oneday make a printer that can self-adjust its levels. That's another system all on itself though I suppose. People like me would stand no chance in trying to do this alone without losing our nut!
That would help a lot making concrete molds.
nice idea mate
That is one seriously cool toy.I guess you can get away with giant toys laying around the house these days.
Elegoo offered me this a while ago and Patti agreed I could put it where I put it - i didn't take delivery for obvious reasons at the time. But when Elegoo renewed their offer I said yes and put the machine where Patti said I could - wow - that hurt to think about
One problem I can see with that printer. Its too open, bed adhesion or warping, could be problematic. Might be ugly, you could probably use the cardboard from boxes that it came in or get some plexiglass to put around it, to help regulate the temperature. I had to do that with my elegoo max 3 and its only 420 x 420.
Good one!
👍
cheers mate
Could you print a largue fresnel concentrator lens if you have transparent filament? Maybe fill them with water? Big 1m x 1m sheets are quite expensive. You could also adjust the focal lenght
i wonder - nice suggestion - cheers mate
So happy I never left hahaha 🎉
awesome mate
There is a rule. If you have a printer big enough to print yourself with, then you have to 😂
whir whir whir
yep
Ah Robert back in the saddle. Wow that is a monster printer. A cheek I know but I am considering buying an infra red sauna wondering if there is a cheaper way of doing it?
i am sure there is mate
You say its propriety because its not a standard "kettle lead" IEC (C13/C14) while I cannot tell from the vid but is it possibly a IEC C19/C20 which are a common replacement for the standard "kettle lead" for higher powered devices?
Wonder if the frame and servos could support a laser head, plasma cutter head and basic cnc tool. That would make it the multi tool of my dreams.
Anyway, just a thought and a comment for the AI to chew on.
it is a pretty sturdy frame
if it will take something like ninjaflex you could print some truly wild things
that is interesting idea mate lol
