Easy High Temp 3D Printer Filament Dryer
Video Repost: Combined the two filament dryer videos into one and fixed some copyrighted music issues.
We continue adding to the 4-color Frankenprinter with a new filament dryer which can feed four spools at once to the printer. It can reach temps suitable for drying PETg and ASA filament for 3D printing, too!

DIY Silicone Brushes for 3D Printers

    Great video! DIY really is the way to go most of the time for me. I got 2 questions- first, did you manage to evenly-dehydrate the filaments? I assume that the spools won't move unless ur printing, so it might dry more the part thats closer to the heater than the other sides. Second, did you try other materials like nylon? Which I read need around 80+ celcius

    • @mightystudiosvids

    So the My Arcade game you show with the two buttons included is actually a Bubble Bobble. Since Bubble Bobble is not among the 6 games chooseable for the Pac-Man unit, I suppose it belongs to a different set of games included in those units. Could you find out which games are in that set? It looks like the My Arcade unit uses NES games which of course have been around for a long time, while the Tiny Arcade units have their own, less capable hardware with newly programmed ports, which you can tell by the fact that the games have a lower resolution and framerate (does that hardware support sprites at all?) and don't look that arcade-accurate generally.

    this is a really smart solution for parked heads! question for you- how are you handling purging on the chimeras? normal IDEX printing doesn't need a purge since you have two independent extruders, but since you're mixing two in each nozzle I imagine you're purging. Are you purging between every color change no matter what or are do you have a way of specifying a purge between A->B and C->D, but not any of the other swaps (AC, AD, BC, and BD)?

    • @mightystudiosvids
      @mightystudiosvids 7 місяців тому

      They are 4 independent nozzles with their own hot ends, so it's ok to let one print while it's partner is idle. A change to Marlin firmware was needed to make sure changes like A->B wait for A to cool sufficiently before B can begin printing. Changes like A->C can be more immediate since A will go park. Overall, prints take longer if there is a lot of cooling pauses needed, but no purging is required. At some point, I'd like to try and optimize the slicing so I can avoid the cooldown needed by preferring to change from one IDEX side to the other over changes between nozzles on the same side.

    Do you have any options if you don't have a 3d printer? Looking around it is hard to find material like you suggested when dealing with heat.

      Sorry, no. You'd have to find something to place the heat element in that was safe for the snake and your tub.

    How did you fix the silicone pad into place, did you use specialty silicone'glue? ..cause no other glue works on silicone

      I just used more of the same red silicone. It will adhere to itself and to the plastic tray I hold it in.

    Awesome job Greg! I just bought the Pro Version - Got it cheap myself! I may just try this too... I'm also considering a y-axis upgrade - not sure if you've had issues with bed wobble and how JGMaker suggests one fix it... Doesn't exactly instill confidence in the long term durability of the stock y-axis. I'm thinking dual linear rails instead of the extrusion with wheels... Anyway, I will also tackle your lead screw video as well. Thanks for sharing!!

      I wasn't aware of y-axis wobble issues, but I'm going to watch out for it now. Thanks!

      Greg, have you attempted ABL with this printer? Their new version includes ABL but I was told they're using a different board. They said the stock board isn't compatible with ABL. I did some research on the stock board and it does have 3d Touch connections, thinking it may be a Marlin / dual extruder issue... I'm considering Klipper via a PC to run it instead. What are your thoughts?@@mightystudiosvids

      For the 4-nozzle design, I had to switch to a new board from BigTreeTech (the Octopus v1.1) it supports ABL connections but I have not tried to use them yet. The original board on my Artist-D was an MKS Robin Pro v1.0 which has support for a BLTouch sensor. In theory, it should be possible to enable it's use in Marlin or Klipper with the correct settings.@@jamespatrickbales

      Hey Greg! I received all of my parts for the IPEX conversion - I've been watching for more videos on your channel! Hoping to get an update with print examples... The one worry I have (other than all the re-wiring) is whether or not you get much leakage during prints from the adjacent nozzle. Are you getting clean prints? Would you do it again or do you have regrets?@@mightystudiosvids

    • @mightystudiosvids
      @mightystudiosvids 9 місяців тому

      If your standby temperature is too high, then the adjacent nozzle will leak onto the print. This can also happen if the adjacent nozzle is told to preheat up to print temperature too early while still moving over the bed. I've been tweaking Marlin source code to help combat this, but some slicers might let you adjust this as well. I don't have regrets because this is a very fun project to tinker on for me. If Bambu were to lower prices significantly, I think that would be a good alternative to building your own multicolor printer. @@jamespatrickbales

    Now forgive my ignorance but was the board/speaker/button assembly soldered for connection?

    • @smanhaa029

      Or simply just a breadboard inside with direct power to outlet? Also what gauge of wire was used?

    • @mightystudiosvids
      @mightystudiosvids 10 місяців тому

      soldered. I believe I used 22 awg hookup wire for all the connections.
