Hey Ivan, if you are not going to be moving this printer much, you might think about securing it to the wall or floor with bracing, that would instantly increase the rigidity of the frame quite a bit. Nice job on the new printer!!! Been missing some Ivan Miranda content, hope the next video is coming sooner that later, as you do a great job with all your projects!!!! 😀
@@saxplayingcompnerd Very true, my Prusa sometimes resonates through my desk, but Ivan has a concrete floor and at least one concrete block wall I can see, so no worries of vibration there.
@@saxplayingcompnerd I don´t think thats going to be an issue as long as the wall is a brick wall. Also the frequencies are probably much different compared to small 3d Printers. I just have a big concrete slab under my printer with an enclosure and vibrations are not a problem any more
Great work! Consider using Rivet Nuts on such thin aluminium walls. They are way stronger than simple thread i.n 2mm wall. And quite efficient on assembly
I couldn't imagine printing all of this out. I get halfway through a small project and my printer starts giving me fits and I give up for months at a time. This would never get finished if I was doing it. I applaud you sir.
The costs of things is hard. Aluminum can be harder to source in some places and much easier in others. He could have spent say $1000 USD on his but it would cost you $2000 USD and me $800 USD. Time to print and build time though would be interesting.
I have a bambulabs x1cc, printing one corner is 11 hours.. So i'm calculating 1 month with 24x7 running this one printer. Ordered another one by now to speed it up
Ivan, your engineering is awesome!! Thank you! There are at least a dozen little details (materials, part numbers, manufacturers, vendors, design decisions, etc.) in your build that could use a video each to discuss. I hope you consider doing so.
I’m so obsessed with these videos, and just the idea of setting into a big project like this. I can’t wait to have my dream workshop and be able to spend my days tinkering and creating.
hey Ivan, You might want to consider looking at a way to use a pellet extruder in one of these awsome printers!, WAY higher threwput so would be realy nice for very larg prints! Another youtuber named Doctor D flow uses one and the prints come out realy fast!
have you thought of a print head that has a xy head, like regular sized printer that moves on a different xy head to get away from that the bigger you go the bigger the moving mass, you'd just slowly move the other xy around to move the xy that actually can do fast movements(but is limited in travel to 20x20 or whatever)? so you could still do local moves at 120mm/s or whatever with regular drivers, while that contraption then would be moved around slower while it's doing it's thing
I thought about doing something like this several years ago but with a Delta for the secondary. The problem with any sort of sub-tool assembly like these is that the person designing it will have to figure out how the kinematics interact and tell that to the firmware, as well as telling the firmware how to prioritize one set of kinematics over the other.
@@claws61821 yea there's different ways to do the kinematics, but that there isn't a pre-existing firmware definitely is a barrier, like with just more axis on a board and gcode pre-processor - let the existing look ahead and max speeds per axis and acceleration per axis routines just do as they already do and leave the firmware with not messed with(messes with fw pressure advance when moving them same time, but otherwise it's pretty much okay if a fw doesn't really know where the head is as long as the axis just move whatever they're told). I think early reprap morgans used this if i remember right and some early other alternative kinematics just used this preprocess the gcode method and run the printer as far as the printer knew as a normal xy printer. works fine enough for tinkering. not that it still would make writing the preprocessor simple, but performance wouldn't matter as it's not handled realtime. - or do it on the fly(hardest I'd think) with look ahead to see where to move the slower head while printing with with the fast one - basically same as the first one. - or a bunch of scripts and slice in 20x20 (or how much the head can move) segments and print the segments sequentally, interleave the gcode one segments one layer at a time and add the move to the next segment and then move the printhead just to the next segment area(simplest mathematics to figure out), and once all of the grid of segments is finished, raise z and go around again. simplest because you wouldn't be moving the heads at the same time, making everything conceptually much easier - at the same time it would be the jankiest of these 3. although this would make it simplest to run 2 of the printing heads idex style(or more). but yea you can't just chop off an ultimaker top end and glue it to this printer and call it a day, a LOT of the development time would go into the supporting software.
Now, lets make a 20m x 20m version, and lets print a small school in vase mode 🤪 You work is INSANELY cool, the builds are AMAZING, your video edits are so fascinating, I just love this !
Your methodical building workflow is genius. Taping the larger piece of aluminum to the smaller piece to assemble the frame is absolutely genius and i’m stealing it.
Truly AWE inspiring, not only your engineering skills but the perfection of how you produced the video, just the right amount of info, scene changes, increased speed without missing any pertinant info. This is so kind of you to share this with us. How many hours should a person with basic engineering and good electronic skiils estimate the hours needed to build?
Your projects are truly exceptional and serve as a great source of inspiration! Thank you for generously sharing your work with the entire 3D printing community. ❤
to me, this device must use a 1mm nozzle, just as you chose. maybe even larger. and since this printer is so large, a filament extruder or a direct pellet extruder might be a cost saving method. the prints will be hardly below 15kg, so even a small print costs quite a lot (don't get me started on recycling of failed prints). suggestion for a first print: a benchie that can carry a person and has an electro motor.
I subscribed many years ago to watch a Spanish madman do his thing and to this day you don't disappoint. What a beautiful monster! Can't wait to see the next part :)
looking at all these parts got me exited, i got a project I've been wanting to make an oversized printer for to be able to print mold negatives, and this is about the correct size, just the wrong angle but its so modular that it can easily be rotated, so with very little modification I think this solves the whole issue itself of even thinking about it, leaving me with only the filament production side to deal with, which is already mostly solved on its own, and perhaps it would also be something you might run into, filament prices and limited spool sizes as they may be, where as the size and weight issue of a hopper feed head come in, so hopper feed into spool creation then that spool into the printer and boom, now a giant hopper can feed the printer from right next to it without having effect on the weight of the head
Talk about why the old printer wasn't good...that would be super interesting! I mean we are here because we are interested in printers, why they are good and why they are not.
4:20 По поводу резьбовых соединений. Лучше использовать гайки и шайбы, а не нарезать резьбу в алюминиевом профиле. Для этого отверстие делается сквозным. Шайба и гайка вставляется через большее отверстие. Потом можно закрыть пластиковой заглушкой. Жёсткость профиля не пострадает. Зато сила крепления в разы надёжнее и обеспечит жёсткость.
Ivan; you should consider putting some deployable workbench caster wheels on this so you can move it around easier with less risk of warping the frame. They sell sets of four that stow and deploy on cam levers.
I would make the feet separate from the printer, on their own square and reinforced X frame, with needle adjusters for height and cups on the 3D printer. Gives more rigidity and stability, because the feet aren't separate, rather one large foot, that happens to allow for adjustment of the thing on top. This is how i did my largest lathe, because the floor of my barn isn't the right thickness. It sits on a large box frame support with needles made from cups with balls inside. The balls aren't allowed to move about (like say in an anti earthquake setup), they're captive between the two cups, but the bottom cups are adjustable with screws. It's extraordinarily stable and easy to adjust.
cool printer, little list of suggestion,: -Goliath hotend, maybe partner up with mellow and vez from the vzbot team -remote cooling -AWD setup (2x and 2 y motors)
Hey Ivan, at the end of this printer build series could we also have a zip file with all the models for easy of printing? Maybe like update the link? Idk but I did comb through f360 for them! I can’t wait to rewatch the videos to build this. Thank you for all of your hard work and the entertainment! ❤️😁
Due to the size of the frame, I's suggest you consider adding some Diagonal Bracing to stiffen the structure. This would help to keep the frame stable during printing
Have you ever think to design a 5 axis 3d printer or a cnc mill?? It will be amazing to see a creation of yours on this kind of machines, all your videos are amazing never missed one since I watch one of your big 3d printers.
Ivan this right here is why anytime you want to have residency at Boko you'd be welcome - in fact I'll build one of these and document because you are so awesome.
I sat through most of the frame assembly thinking "this should be welded. Doesn't retract from how cool this project is and hope it's a long lasting printer
This is amazing I have never seen anything like this done in a garage You are going to need a lot of flow in order for it to be usable and not take weeks to print, even a cutting edge consumer hotend made for a desktop printer is probably not going to work since the limit is about 40 mm^3/s. (you probably already know) You should consider making a scaled up custom hotend with something like a 2-3mm nozzle using the 5kg 3mm filament spools so you don't have to constantly change them that would make this project much more usable
Thank you for marking the Onshape bit as sponsored! I've seen them on so many channels lately and none of them have even mentioned that they're doing paid promotion. I kinda feel like Onshape is specifically telling people not to mention the sponsorship and just talk about the service, which would be super shady.
I love your camera work, choreography and content. Your videos are way better than any long drawn out TV efforts I have seen. Thank you. edit - P.S. and accent😊
I wonder if a printer could be made that prints on a spinning platform, from the inside out, the head would only move up down, and in out, as the table spins in one direction, you'd have to start from the middle on the table and would produce something that looked like a tree log in structure.
I should get a head start on building this.
It opens a world of possibilities, BIG ones!

Impressive ❤😊
If he doesn’t plan on moving it he could get rid of the feet part and mount it upside down onto the roof
Has to be big enough to print a fully articulated iron Man armor in one shot😊
That would be really cool
It is 😁
Ivan size armour or normal human 😅
What kind of filaments do you need for the arc reactor?
I mean, it needs to WORK, right? And that means a power source.
This is probably a dumb question, but how the nozzle move downward to print?
Great work!

LOVED that little red rod guide bit you made for the interior of the extruded aluminum. That was a brilliant solution to that known issue.
The amount of preparation and thought that went into this is insane

This is gonna be great! I can't wait to see the finished project! (And maybe a full-size Benchy?) 😃
Great build Ivan! Curious if you used your usual Polymaker Red PLA, or if you went with ABS for this one?
Incredible works in one video.
*Do know that some people made BUILDINGS with large (ACTUALLY LARGE) 3D printers they built?*
Looks amazing love to know what your first print will be 😊
And how many months the print time will be!
