Because of you, I bought a 3D printer and found out I like to do model boats now 😅 crazy thing is now it’s a family event. My parents, wife and I hang out around the printer making RC boats

[tiago]

never got a video recommended under 1 minute, this crazy

As a cosplayer, I’ve only ever done things with wood, cardboard, metal, etc. I recently wanted to get a 3d printer, and this video helped so much! Thank you!

Note: if you don't have a big budget don't be scared to get the smaller printers. It's very possible to print big stuff on these things just know its going to take some more time to finish your props! Me and allot of other builders have build full Ironman suits on the small printers and they are amazing to!
Yes big is nice but if you can't afford it don't be scared to buy buy small :)

I'm an educator and I love our 3D printers for my students and now I'm moving slowly towards models and my own cosplay. Thanks for this video.

I have the ender 5 plus and it’s fantastic for printing larger stuff. Full size helmets is a breeze. Ive done many mods to mine to try to make it more versatile and more reliable. Magnetic bed, direct feed instead of Bowden tube, higher temp hot end which requires swapping out the screen for the th3d screen that’s compatible and updating the firmware. Its like its a different printer now. Much quieter and printing tpu is now not an issue with jamming in the Bowden tube. Higher temps allows for printing higher strength materials like carbon fiber polycarbonate without having layer adhesion issues. Had to go through a massive learning curve to get where I am today. Your channel has helped and more importantly inspired ambition and sparked my imagination. I like this channel and Makers Muse a lot. Very different channels but both spark that imagination nerve in the brain. Lol Making stuff is fun. 😊

I purchased the FLSUN V400 (1st printer) because of your Video about it and I'm really happy about it 😊 still learning day by day about better settings

[MrBrokenwrenches]

I bought the Neptune 3 plus based on this video. Now I'm printing a life size rancor head from galactic armory. Absolutely love your vedos and recommendations. Thanks!

[riikuun]

In case you all want one, as of RIGHT NOW... the Elegoo Neptune 3 Plus IS in fact available on their website for US and EU shipping! I bought mine yesterday right as they went up and am excited to get it set up, good luck everyone!

[SLICER.]

This is fantastic, sir. Thank you so much for all the information. I feel very informed watching your videos, and hopefully, this year, I will be able to get a printer and start seeing what I might be able to do! Very excited!

[ManMonkey]

Love watching these videos even if I’m not looking for a another printer currently thanks Frank 👍

[santosvidesjr.]

Good work on the video! Worth the time to watch it through

[James-glph]

This video should be rated as a community service, , , what a blessed great video, ,, you won a subscriber for life., .. Thank you, bro

[gabrielreisinger]

I'm glas elegoo kept the names simple. Just pro, plus, and max. Simple, unlike a company who decided on max neo, neo, max, and sl1. What the heck are those soposed to mean.

[TheOmegaFighter]

I just got a Neptune X for Christmas, and I'm still getting used too it, hopefully soon I'll be able to really get into these bigger stuff

[DarthHyrum]

This is really helping me know what 3D printer I want to get. :)

[Dinkleberggaming]

I got the elegoo Neptune 3 plus and it’s perfect what I was looking for, thank you 3:50

[deadlyapollo]

I just got my Elegoo Neptune 3 Plus, and it is an absolute monster/game changer. It's stupidly simple to use, and the "nanny" aids like mesh leveling make printing headache free.

[kyleware]

ha, I literally messaged you a few days ago about your recommendation on a larger base plate printer!

Great video, I'll be grabbing a Neptune as soon as I can find one available!

My first printer was a cr10 mini and I started with small things then where I work I started getting requests for items and I used that money to get a regular cr10 that ended up being 4 more I had a business going and then I decided to go big and the cobra max was my choice and when I say everything paid for itself it did and the max had a few bugs but they were an easy fix. I have a small resin printer and now I’m looking for a large format resin printer. My coworkers over a thousand of them know I’m the go-to guy for unique things especially around Christmas time I usually have all my printers going full throttle around the holidays.
Love your channel and keep the great tips coming.
I’ve only been printing for four years now and I’m busy every day.
