Need someone to repair wife printer

THEY are not sold s 50w laser cutters.!!

I use a leadscrew cleaner to remove old grease and gunk, I then apply just a little grease at the bottom of the 2 front leadscrews and send the bed up in 3 stages and remove the excess and apply that further up the leadscrew in dabs, I remove any excess grease which is usually just a little and apply that to the back leadscrew along with a fresh dab and this is usually enough lubrication. This is the method I have used on my CNC milling machine for 30 years and my leadscrews are good!

Per another comment below where is a link to the tool you used. And tnx for the video. Something that is seemingly very simple no doubt I would completely make a mess of had I not seen your tutorial. Thanks again !

I am a new X1 Carbon owner after using an Ender. Like a dummy I cleaned my cool plate with acetone instead of alcohol and smudged the QR code boxes so the lidar couldn’t ten what plate was installed. When I got the printer I didn’t know what the extra two replacement mats were for (no I didn’t read the instructions) and when it finally dawned on me I figured it went right on top of the original surface and had a whole bunch of prints s not sticking to the build plate even with glue sticks (and a couple air bubbles). When I finally figured out I needed to remove the original one I peeled both off then off and replaced them with another one and voila! My prints stick now! For me, getting the right amount of glue on the plate has been a learning curve but I per much have it down now. I absolutely love this printer and have used the AMS a couple times with about a 95% success rate.

Where do I find the tool to align the replacement build plate surface? The link is not in the description.

So you bought a machine and pretty much rebuilt it? Wouldn't it havd been cheaper to just build it from scratch 😅 great video tho, lots of good quality advice and information 💯

Bambu Scraper - The blade must be pulled regularly over a sharpening stone. This will ensure that you don't get any scratches on the build plate. We use 8 scrapers

It's not so easy, half of the glue stick on the technically sheet. With glue remover i ruined the sheet Did you ever print PETG on the tech sheet or only pla with 35°C?

how many hours did you have on the first build plate?

What settings do you use on the x1 for these filaments ?

Where did you break the machine at?

Awesome video 😁 - normally there's only one way to learn, and there is no shame in showing mistakes. So many channels would've cut that out!

Thanks for the video!

There's a nice leadscrew cleaner on printables

Way too much grease.

Wait. Pause. I have to restore myself from the intro. The fact that the upper glass didn't break was not distensive enough. I felt quite shocked. I feel you, more properly since it's not my glass. But I sweated 2 drips, tbh.

Looks like you applied way too much grease to me.

I'd use an old toothbrush to do the initial clean of the lead screws. If you do this as you raise and lower the bed it's more likely to clean deeper into the screw thread

your printer comes with the correct lube to use no ? my P1s had it in the accessories box

I don't use antifreeze on my k40 even though it's in the room with no heat. I have a aquarium heater that's only 50 Watts. But to keep it from running all the time I have temperature control outlet that comes on when it drops below 50° f.

That line is part of the benchy not a fault

Good job & thanks 👍, Subbed 🙂

Semi useless video. Videos, like this, should be instructional - showing and describing what is done (materials used, machine settings, etc...) so people who are interested would be able to duplicate / replicate the item(s) being made.

"This machine is sold as a 50 Watt Laser Cutter (10:10 - 10:12)". What country do you live in? I have never seen a K40 Laser marketed or sold as a 50 Watt Laser. They are marketed & sold as a 40 Watt Laser, however, the maximum output power is 35 Watts at best, with the cheap Laser Tube it comes with.

Do you sell your brackets that you have used for you tube ?

Awesome video! I would really love to see you increase the work area! I've been searching everywhere for a tutorial or even some hints on how to do it. Or if it's possible at all... So anything on that would be amazing! Keep up the good work!

Hi just brought a omtech 40w what’s the first things I will need to get going?

By the way: The K40 Laser is supposed to be a 40W laser hence the tube is shorter. What you wanted is a K50. These machines are way bigger and more expensive.

Thank you very much for your video. Before viewing I wanted to buy a K40, then dismantled it to makes all the upgrades in one run. I realized that the remaining of the original K40 are probably just the enclosure, the guides and the perfectible mirrors and lens holders. I guess the cost of your mods are far above the K40's price tag. I heard you saying there's still a bunch of upgrades to do next. Thanks again because I realized building a whole 50w CO2 laser from the ground up, with the right components and the right build area would be less expensive. I guess also there might be a way to optimize a lot, for example the footprint and the fumes extraction. Of course tinkering a K40 is maybe a fun learning journey, but there's a lot of pros to skip the K40 step. I subscribe to follow you progression. Good luck 🙂

Great video! Man you did some terrific mods! You definitely have some skills. Subscribed. I will check out your othr videos.

Hi what do you call that yellow color tube Thanks

Great video! Where do you get the masking tape?

Nice upgrades, where did you get that size recoil hose please?

Great video, it was very informative. I wanted to know if you can provide links to the power supply and laser that you are using. I need to do this upgrade asap. And if or rather when find a way to extend the cutting area can you please made a vise with links to everything because I’d love to up grade everything on my k40. Thank again. Have you got an ig?

I've been using MeerK40t as an alternative to whisperer until I can afford an upgrade.

Hi d9uglas thanks for thus video iv just ordered a mini gerbil or grbl however its pronounced lol, so I can use lightburn I would love a video on using the mini with lightburn using it and power settings etc lots of people would appreciate this as not very many videos on the mini out here also maybe a install video on it would be great too as you explain things great Thanks 😊

how much money do you have in all these improvements total.

The one thing you didn't upgrade is the size of the cutting area! That would be a bigger improvement.

Thanks for the video. Question: Where did you get the yellow coil tubing?

Do you any info on the adjustable bed? I really want to add this to my stock case

Absolute brilliant mate great upgrades how much money was the total upgrades cheers

Hello. This video was very informative. I just got my k40 laser for Christmas and have been looking for somewhere to get the upgraded lenses and mirrors. I would like to purchase from your link, however, I'm not sure the diameter of the lense or mirror I should purchase. Woudl you mind to provide the size that you purchased as replacements? Thank you in advance!!

Thanks for the upload. How much do you charge to make these.

Was it easy to fit the switch endstops to the mini grbl

Nice one. Got to make some videos from my workshop when I get the time. Got lasering, vinyl cutting, printing and heat pressing going on in a garage🤣 Always appreciate the time and effort you guys put into making content. Have great Christmas mate 👍

instead of masking tape I use transfer tape (signwriting supplies, usually used for decals) so much easier and way cheaper if you use a lot. the one that actually looks like masking tape, not the clear one, hope this is useful for someone. Easy to find online. 100 metre Rolls in all sorts of widths.

Hey, nice vide. Does the antifreeze in the distilled water cause any problems? Is antifreeze conductive?
