SORRY, the sound was very low for some reason. Today we start with Day 1 of redoing my little basement workshop. It had become over grown with stuff. It was a catch all and I had nowhere to put stuff, so I decided to take it all out and start over. I should had some forethought and taken a before and after picture, but I didn't. So, join along and see the outcome. This is a long video, so fast ...

474 from hell that just needs a can motor
" I have to leave in a few minutes." Still starts to take it apart. 😂 I do the same thing and I feel better now.
I ended up being late!
I think that would be a bad seal in the cylinder
let's hope not!
What was the humidity at originally?
I believe it was just about 40f
Have you tryed z offset?
oh yeah, about a thousand times. There is something else going on, just have to figure it out.
@dougdoesstuff24 what temps you running and extrusion speed?
I was running 200, but with the sonic pad it was going FAST. I need to do more work on this thing. I really think the issue is the direct sprite extruder, that is when all the issues started with both printers.
@@dougdoesstuff24 I have the same extruder and was running 210°and 100% extrusion 50% speed
Tottaly off topic, but did you replace your engine mounts or these original? Mine looks different
I didn't, can't say if previous owner did or not
Bro, just get yourself an A1! Bambu labs is really done a good job. I’ve modded ender 3, 5’s I had my fun but now I’m having a lot more fun just printing what I want when I want without having to tinker as much.
I'm a stubborn old goat.... But I might get there sooner than later
@@dougdoesstuff24 I second @LarryBerg 10000% !! I used to tinker with an Ender3 style printer (Eryone ER20). Replacing the extruder with a highend one and flashing it with Klipper improved things quite a bit but still, always tinkering without ever getting anything completely clean and fast... I finally got an A1, and WOW !! It's just another world. Every print is clean, it prints fast (3h15 for a 8x8 plate), it's as close to automatic as it can be... you really should take the leap. Honestly, I nearly didn't ever print anything useful with my previous printer, because I feared how much I would have to tinker to get a good result. Now I can't stop printing, everything I find interesting and useful. I just download the file, check some general settings (usually defaults are OK), hit print, and use it. Bambu Lab did a wonderful job on this printer, especially at this price point of 350€.
Use a hot air gun to get rid of the strings and everything else on your finished parts. 73
I did read that elsewhere, but I want it to be good out of the gate :)
Doing the same 4 stack on my K1 Max and it's going to take 24hrs, and I thought that was too long lol. Still using my Creality CR10 as the "parts" printer, and it's doing 15hr prints at about the same speed as the Ender 3 Pro. The biggest thing about both these printers is the removeable spring steel built plate - it's a game changer for removing prints from the bed, even really small ones come off so easy.
It is a long print for sure, but it was coming out very nice. All the damn upgrades I did ended up being downgrades in quality. ugh
@@dougdoesstuff24 yeah quality is primary when you have things you see each and every day. At times I want to get another printer to get these jobs done quicker, but I might just have to dust off the old CR10-S5 and get it working on some of the items as well. I think I have 3 weeks of printing left just for the next multi board project, then I want to start on the tool storage
Does this affect the linearity/response curve of the stick?
It's been so long, I can't answer reliably, sorry.
If I was in your place. I would go ahead and bite the bullet and buy the $299 5M FlashForge 3D printer and be done with it. Way way faster print speeds and well worth the money. Buy once cry once. You only need to buy it once, and then you have something good to use from now on.
I'm in too deep at this point :(
@@dougdoesstuff24 I hear ya. You would be glad you did. But I understand. I'm printing a sheet of single, double, and quad 8mm screw mounts on my K1 max and a sheet of small threaded screw mounts on my ender 3 v2 neo as I'm typing. Got T bolts on file ready to start as soon as one of them is finished. I love the multiboard stuff. I was looking at the community build post a while ago for some shelf mount inspiration. Lol. I got so much planned out.
I ran 207 nozzle and 60 bed at 50 print speed and had great results. You can use a pocket torch after to take care of the stringing
Great to see this video! Congratulations on the new printer. Do you use Orca Slicer?
No, I use Cura. As I get into the hobby that might change
@@dougdoesstuff24 Nice! If you end up moving to Orca Slicer, OctoPrint, or have any questions please let me know I'm also newish to it but have compiled marlin after installing a direct drive Revo nozzle. Always happy to help maybe some of my failures could save you some time. I'm thinking about trying the multi board and appreciate you sharing
@RandoTechNerd will do. Got another video coming out tonight. I picked up a sonic pad and it's crazy fast
Have you tryed the 4 stack yet?
Yes, on my Ender 3 pro. I will get to it on the Neo eventually
@@dougdoesstuff24 mine said 3 days 21 hours
@@leroycline8849 Sounds about right if you didn't change any settings. Don't forget to make the walls 3 and infill 15
@@dougdoesstuff24 ok I will try that
Im getting a ender 3 v2 today and sole purpose was to make this. Did you come up with better settings?
I don't yet. Still tinkering
Your engine is equipped with hydraulic lifters. There is no valve lash adjustment.
this is a four stroke engine , why do you adjust both intake and exhaust valves on the same stroke?
I did not adjust on the same stroke. Sorry if that didn't come across in the video.
Great video. My 445 idles too high and sometimes after mowing sticks at full throttle. Any suggestions? Thanks
did you try lubricating the pivot points? Maybe it is just sticky?
The draft lift arms are probably not clocked in the right position. Very little movement up & down. Should be nearly 4" of travel. To adjust the deck height. It must be in the raised position. Turn the adjuster dial to raise or lower. Then lower the deck to see the actual cutting height.
2 days to print that is insane, I think my mostly stock sidewinder X2 could do that in 8 hours or so, I suggest you speed up the print head, get a 0.6mm nozzle which will let you set the layer height to 0.5mm which is awesome for churning out stuff like this
I'm new to the 3d printing realm. I'll have to dig in and see where I can speed it up. Thanks for the info
Careful with that advice-- first, the stacks are designed for 0.2mm layer height. The "gap" between layers is 0.2mm. Also, the recommended print is 3 walls, and about 15% infill. On my Bambu X1C, "mostly" default settings, a stack takes 11 hours. The first three layers have ironing enabled for top surfaces. Also, unusually on the multiboard, each hole (big and little) is threaded. This means you can thread in pegs, connectors, etc., but it also means that each hole is threaded, and I haven't tested how large layer heights work on multiboard.
@@johngelnaw1243 Hey there. Thanks for chiming in. I did see that about the .2 layer height. I have no intention of changing nozzles until I figure this thing out. Again, thank you!
Beer, pretzels and 3D printing. I like your style!
This is so underrated
I think step one should be buy a bambu machine
Gloves.
Get yourself a printer with a removable spring steel build plate. You’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner, I promise you.
better yet just get a Magnetic print surface for this printer
My print bed arrived warped, so I clipped on a treated glass plate to provide a flat surface. One day I'll replace the bed, but for now magnetic or spring steel build plates lead to unsustainable print failures for me.
Awesome! I am currently waiting on my first 3D printer to be delivered this weekend😊! I for sure could use these grids to organize some stuff!
Good luck and have fun! Which printer did you go with?
@@dougdoesstuff24 I got a Anycubuc 2 Kobe’s Neo. But with the Microsoft crash, it’s coming in later than normal.😢
My first Multiboard setup was a total of 12 8*8 squares, the second is 3*3, and the next one I'm printing now is 5*4, and may be 5*5 if it will fit :) They are so versatile
What is multiboard = the 3D printed organization system based off of others that have already existed that tries to take advantage of packages that make it easier to understand the system to make money, that sums it up in the nutshell, ohh and uses the license two stranglehold makers on what they can and cannot recreate lol..........................
so you're a gridfinity guy ;)
@@dougdoesstuff24 nope honeycomb storage wall cuz its free and remixable and the creator didnt create it to take advantage of people to make a buck and claim its FREE
@@NoMercyFtw Yeah, that $5 I paid for access to all the stack models nearly bankrupted me. Multiboard is also remixable, but you can't claim it's your own work. And you can't sell it (without a license). What a burden. I evaluated most of the available storage wall options-- and multiboard wins hands down, and by a country mile. It's pegboard compatible, it supports connectors, it holds a LOT more weight than HSW, and personal peeve, I don't have to put my snaps diagonally. I do think the starter package should be free, though.
@@johngelnaw1243 I didn't have to pay anything I made my own stack, I'm just not going to support a system that was built designs to take advantage of how easy something could be and then purposely making it difficult for the free version and then offering a paid package to explain it and offer it in a more understandable fashion
@@johngelnaw1243 oh and by the way thread boards is better than multiboard hands down if I would pay for any of them it would be that one, and honeycomb storage wall is the best period
Damn, do you usually have the printer printing right next to you as you work on the computer?? Or did you move it there just for the video?
I have 4 printers in my office what's wrong with that
I just moved it there for now because of how long it was going to take. BUT, since I did the motherboard upgrade on it, it is VERY quiet. I could tolerate it if I had to. The original motherboard was so loud and could be heard from anywhere.
Hey, I'm trying to print the multiboard, but the first layer won't stick since it try to print first the the inside of the diamons, could you help me with your print configuration. I have the Ender 3 S1
Hey there. I am using just the standard quality print with a change to the walls to 3 as noted on multiboard. If your first layer isn't sticking then several things: 1. Bed level, Nozzle too far, Bed Temp, Nozzle Temp, clean bed. Lots to rule out.
My .2MM layer height 40% infill profile can print this in under 22 hours on a bone stock Ender 3 pro. I highly encourage you to look into tuning your slicer profile by hand as the default settings are FAR too conservative. Though my profile prints over twice as fast, the prints are able to retain the majority of the strength compared to default.
That's good to know. What is your print speed? No mods?
print speed 60mm/s. But just changing your print speed will not make you print much faster
I've printed a few "scrapers" in PLA to remove prints and I find that they do a decent job without scratching the print bed. Yeah they aren't as durable, but its a quick print and you can just print a new one when needed. Its been over a month since I printed my first 2 and I haven't had to print more. Something to keep in mind. Ive looked into printing this system, thanks for the share.
@@elove8 second this! I printed one and it's been great won't scratch the bed
Get a A1 much better experience
I just print one at a time and all of them have nice PEI surface. Cool subsystem. I personally do love only the very first Ender 3. All other modifications have their downsides. Why Creality would not polish the very first model and call it Ender 3 DIY is a mystery for me. Prusa have printer KIT and as far as I know it have its popularity. And I already posted under the other video. The very first Ender 3 is very easy to maintain and upgrade, it really need some tuning, but after that it just prints. I am going to install POM Z nut so I will not need to grease it anymore. Needless to say in a two years I never greased it though = ) And it can print really fast, may be not so fast as a Bambu models, but 'cmon, its $100 printer which was created like 7 years ago or so. And Bambu printers are top notch and have quite a cost.
What? Twelve hours? Are you kidding? I have Ender 3, the very first one, which comes with bowden. I just installed BeMeGe (a printable BMG clone) and a simple direct extruder mod. Which is actually a very short bowden. It is 10cm length from gears to nozzle tip. Which is quite large for DD. Changed firmware. And 8x8 tile is printed under 4 hours(3:30 or something like that) and Bambu 'superduper' printer prints it in 2:30 as they say on multiboard site. Stock belts and motors have no trouble with 3000 mm/s2 accelerations and 150 mm/s speeds. I flatten the bed with hands, and what left I fill with sticky aluminum foil and checked with a metal ruler and a flashlight. So I do not use any probe to check bed level. I use bed tramming feature which recent Marlin firmware have, and a thin piece of paper, but I do this once in a couple of months, I usually do not change anything. And I use magnetic PEI, which is really convenient. And your bed is very slow in heating. I think this is because of that glass plate, and I bet you did not stick insulation from the bottom. My Ender 3 is ready to print in 2 minutes up to 255/70 which I use for PETG. (actually copied settings from Bambu slicer) I understand now, why people buy Bambu printers. What you showed int the video is a real pain. = ) And why do you print them in stack? I would understand if your printer would print one tile in 30 minutes. But for me, even one tile every 3-4 hour is not a big deal, and if I set it for a night it is only one tile yes, but not a big trouble. Also I would recommend add auto turn off mod too. It was actually the very first one which I installed. The printer can turn it self off by pressing a switch with printbed after the print. You are a really patient if you use this printer just like in the old days = )
Cool concept. Keep up thr work👌
Didnt realize how old this was till he said he got parts at radioshack... a barely remember those days lol
Can't believe that stick is still around and being used! 😁
Had the same problem but instead of taking apart the freezer I just disconnected the plug then opened the back plate in the back then cleared the tube it was all I needed to do it got done was way easier Thanks though for your video
Define leaky. What’s leaking? Air? Oil? Gas?
Air escaping through carb during leak down test
@@dougdoesstuff24 I'm a small engine tech. These kohlers have hydraulic lifters. You don't need to adjust the valves. That happens automatically. It sounds like you need to remove the head and lap the valves.
Adjust? You don't. Need head rebuild. Pull the head and re-seat the valve seats if needed with a peen-in, then re-lap the valves/grind the stems to fit again.
Looking at this rocker set up I noticed that there is a space between the rocker and the where the stud goes into the head , this might be like the old Chevy small blocks where the adjustment is in the rocker it self by tightening down the rocker stud nut till you have zero lash on the the push rod ,PS also known as a floating rocker design . Just google adjusting Chevy small block valves for reference .
Excellent video, thank you!
Nice. I have the 95 220 Horizon. What I did: Washed the boat, used a boat eraser to remove as much debris as possible, then hit the whole thing with Meguiars Compound on a rotary. After that, I went to Meguiars Polishing with a foam fine foam pad. Will be putting on ceramic coat for the final step. FYI: try using polishing compound on the rotary around 1500-2000 rpms rather than using that pad!
Great tip!
Thanks for the video. I’m in the same boat. Mine tested 120. Blowing lots of oil in the air filter.
Glad it can help. Definitely check those valve gaps and do a leakdown.
I think the white dots are imperfections in the gel coat, doesn’t mean you’ve burned through it. But I think more sanding/buffing will only make them more visible. Nice work, looks a lot better!
Lovew the sound of a stock flat twin purring along 👌
I have same problem with my 2024
Rings are probably shot
