Bambu Lab informed me their filament is NOT made by Sunlu. It turns out this was a rumor from user groups on Facebook, Discord, and Reddit, that started when a number of filament orders arrived in Sunlu-branded shipping cartons. A warehouse probably ran out of Bambu-branded boxes and used Sunlu ones instead of ordering more. The two filament companies have no relation.
thanks for letting us know. now get back to railroading devices :P i meen reviewing.

WinMX my dude.. miss it
i hate lowering and raising my standing desk i just bought a bar stool that way i can just stand when i want and sit my ass down when i want no buttons needed... some time low tech really is the best solution
Whips the Llama's ass, Shirley?
Thank you for your high praise of the FlexiSpot E7.
Wow it's the real flexispot
did you expect this when you sent him the desk
I just bought a motorised standing desk from a company called OmniDesk here in Australia which looks to be absolutely identical to the desks you're selling, including all the different tabletop materials you offer. Every single aspect of the design is the same, down to the ridges on the little plastic circular feet on the bottom of the legs. The accessories are also the same, although by the look of it you offer a few extra accessories they don't.
The one thing that's different is the aesthetic design of the controller, which I imagine the OEM offers as a customisable option to resellers who buy these things in bulk.
To be clear, this desk is amazing, worth every cent I paid and more. I would buy it again in a heartbeat, and would recommend it to anyone who was thinking of getting a standing desk. So don't take this as a criticism, I'm just curious about the way these companies work and how the products themselves are actually developed and made.
This seems passive aggressive.
Interesting.. I am in the market for a height-adjustable desk after buying a treadmill without handholds and realizing my balance is non-existent
quick tip for those manual crank benches. Grab an H10 bit and use an electric drill. This makes adjusting a breeze. Been doing this for the last year with great success.
Mount an under desk 3d printed drill holster next to the crank hole and always be ready for the change up!
that's so badass
I do that with the cheap car jacks that go up like a scissor lift. It's awesome and I'd do it if I had a crank desk too.
dont use a drill use an impact driver, just in case ;)
Did this: couldn’t find a bit and got stubborn about ordering so I cut the end off and Allen wrench
To add some context to the first item you reviewed, I have seen an E-bike like that used for a Japanese drunk driver service. They ride a similar vehicle to where the customer is drunk with their vehicle. They fold the bike up in and place it into the customers vehicle. They then drive them back to their home so that the customer and vehicle are both where they need to be. The service unpacks the bike and rides to their next job.
A lot of bars in Japan have cards for these services so if you know you are too drunk to drive, you can call and travel safely.
thats actually really smart, Japan seems like the place where even the smallest issues get solutions
@@bored588 well, yes and no, they have problems of their own just like any other country
The thing that I think companies like FLSun forget when trying to capitalize off a community of makers is that... we are a community of makers. We want to be able to create without restrictions and use a product to its full potential. Unnecessary restrictions, usually added for the purpose of financial gain, are likely going to backfire on the company. It's quite frustrating as a maker as well, especially when such restrictions are not made clear up front.
Or the fact that they are selling stuff that came about due to the community of makers inventing it or developing it beyond its original.
monetize,monetize mmmmmmmone
🎉BINGO🎉
we have a winner
My first printer was an XYZtech DaVinci Minimaker. My poor, unknowledgeable family got it for me for christmas. Actually very interesting, the hotend is just one giant nozzle. The issue? All spools were tagged. It would only run XYZprint, AND XYZprint would refuse to print if the on-spool NFC was missing or "empty." That meant you could only ever use their brand of filament. XYZ went out of business a while back, so until I nut up and hack it, It's a 300$ paperweight. Came with a spool of translucent blue "PLA" that printed just like PETG.
I've been using this thing for months now and it's more reliable that the three bedslingers I have. I'd have to say based on my personal experience, and that includes swapping a heater block due to my own mistake, the criticism here feels anemic.
Also, the pad with the FLSun is not meant to be a speeder pad. It's not useful to give a product a negative for it not doing something it wasn't sold to do.
That bike looks like a waay oversized version of those small and portable mini-bikes that were all over when I was a kid. Seeing it at 4:38 threw my brain for a loop, I can't help but think Zack is about 2'3" riding on one of those small fellas 🤣
Now you know his secret
Coincidentally i just recently bought a much more sensible version of the same concept, lyfco e-fold specifically (god knows if that's available outside sweden but you can look it up to see what a sensible execution of "foldable e-bike" looks like).
@@swedneck oh hey, i'm swedish
But i got a trike....
I do, indeed, have a low bar for entertainment. But you surpass it every time. Thanks for keeping us smiling all the way through!
I love watching new gadget reviews and struggle watching to the end due to actor’s ability to convince me that they genuinely endorse the product they are showing. Even more so when it’s overhyped with bad acting and over emphasized hand and facial expressions to try and convince the viewer that this is the greatest thing ever and need to order now before its sold out. But you had me captivated with every syllable and your ability to be brutally honest and not concerned about how many likes you’ll get. And most times you can tell when they are reading from a script as they struggle with reading and believing what is written and trying to figure out how to make me believe “i need one of those!’ You have been the most analytical and knowledgeable about what is being reviewed i have ever seen and applaud your dedication to the process of a honest review without concerns of ( as you put it) burning bridges in the process. And im sure a lot of people have problems keeping up with you and processing what your saying so quickly. unless they to have ADHD and can process multiple things at once. I even watched you ramble off the names without skipping a beat and screwing up a single name all the way to the end. Bravo! I look forward to your next segment of an honest review. Sincerely Steve
Heck yeah Winamp reference! Love these kinds of videos and love your presentation style! Glad to see the lab is back up and doin' stuff!
Winamp really whips the Llamas ass. at maximum volume :)
I was happy to hear this. I don't think I've ever heard anyone reference it before.
@@stevencurtis7157 There are dozens of us.
@@Poison333 DOZENS
since it doesn't exist anymore... well, audacious is an exact copy drop in replacement based on different code, yet supporting all the themes and skins, yet with support for new codecs.
I really liked your advice towards Bambu Labs. I think it would be an impressive show of good faith to open-source the RFID tags.
To play Devil's Advocate: Maybe the encryption is to prevent people counterfeiting their products. But then it would make more sense to use an open standard for the RFID and cryptographic signature.
If authenticating genuine goods is the goal, there are better ways to go about it. Bambu could just register their tags' UUIDs during the production process, and when an AMS loads the filament, it would send the serial number to Bambu's servers to look it up. If it's not on the list, the printer could ask the user whether to trust the encoded settings, or prefer the G-code.
@@ZackFreedman then they'd have people making knockoffs by cloning UUIDs, forces an always online requirement for confirming, and adds a manufacturer dependency that will fail if their servers stop replying for whatever reason. I'm not approving of junk lockin, but encrypted RFID is at least offline and fail safe
@@A-wy5zm I'm not saying their filament is especially good, just that DRM comes in varying levels of suck
I'm going to sound like a conspiracy theorist. Sounds to me like they're boiling the frog.
Push back now or you'll be paying a subscription for pay to print. No different to HP ink printers.
Really appreciate the review of the v400 and I think it should be spread around more. Many youtubers that reviewed it don't have the knowledge you have to be able to fully evaluate it and tended very positive without fully understanding the product.
I purchased one and have been happy with it but wish I was informed with what you said before deciding. I have had some troubles with the silicone cover. Also the heat block getting bent while printing.
Funny but unrelated thing to mention is that with it being 3 ft tall I have to run it on the ground as otherwise I would need some sort of step stool to insert the filament into the top. Had to rewire the screen to come out of the top to avoid having to sit fully on the ground to use it.
Just finding your channel & I love it! You’re so genuinely funny & have great thorough reviews!
Zack, I just wanted to say, you do such an amazing job capturing the cyberpunk side of the maker zeitgeist. Your humor and references are top notch, your energy is endearing, and your passion is awesome!
When I think of the archetypal cyberpunk content creator, it is you! You deserve all of the success coming your way and more!
I really like these sorts of videos. Zack and I have similar hobbies, but he’s MUCH more experienced / knowledgeable. So it’s actually pretty helpful seeing stuff I might stumble upon and think would be cool to try but not be experienced enough to know what the differences are, or why something doesn’t seem to work since it could always be me.
40:46 honestly for something like that the locked-down part is pretty nice. Not having to take many precautions and just knowing it will always just do what you want it to is a good peace of mind.
Bambu really out reminding us that they are the benevolent, for the moment, overlords of this niche of our neoliberal hellscape.
The Bambu AMS does actually track remaining filament, but in a great way.
Under the Hexagon Icon, you can select "Update Remaining Capacity" and it will let you know if you have enough filament left to complete a job or not. People seem to not know this. However, I believe it seems to keep a log even if not checked because a spool I had placed before I enabled it was halfway empty and when enabled, it recognized it.
They have also considered opening the RFID tag system as well, apparently.
Considered and then decided against it?
@@SianaGearz I don’t believe they have made decision so far. From what I have been from my industrial contact, they want to make sure that if they open the RFID system, filament manufacturers maintain the standard Bambu wants.
Their tags not only measure filament, but change the calibration data. It seems to work well
when enabling it it does not pull up a log but spins the spool 1 full rotation by spinning it until the RFID drops signal then comes back in range. It measures how many mm of filament were passed through the gears then uses a circle circumference to radius calculator to estimate the radius of the edge of the filament wound on the spool thus giving capacity
My most charitable interpretation of Bambu's RFID lockdown is that it's a measure against knock-off filament being sold under their brand, but that does feel like going out of my way to assume the best.
I have a V400, and in its stock form, I agree to everything you say. HOWEVER, since I have flashed official Klipper on it and tuned input shaper, I love it. The thing flies at 300mm/s and 12k acceleration easily, and at around 200 print hours it seems to be really reliable so far.
So I would not really shy away from it, if someone thought about buying it.
I enjoy reviews like this. I also enjoyed seeing the rec center I grew up going to.
I built my own sit stand desk with a sit stand frame (£190) and an Ikea kitchen counter top (£45 - £70, I went for the fancy chopping block style) and it costed me roughly 350 dollars for my own measured size, it's just as simple! Only issue is that if you want to get your specific size (for me it was 186cm) you have to cut the table yourself, but the rest is so explanatory you don't need to have a predrilled counter top, once you line the frame up and measured all sides to be centered, you just tap the holes before screwing them in!
Would recommend this, it feels great to make your own desk :) I've had it for 2 weeks and I've been loving it.
I went to a home improvement store and they cut me a 63.5cm deep (IKEA countertop depth/height) countertop piece to size at millimetre precision. Didn't even charge me anything, first cut being included in the price of material.
Recommend a brand for a good frame manufacturer?
Hell yeah dude. If you have the tools and the time, building stuff yourself is awesome. I just built myself a new bed frame a little over a week ago when my old one broke. Spent about the same amount as a decent one costs, but it'll probably last longer than me, and I know I'll be able to fix it cheaply if it does break
34:48 I find them neat for projects that are "fundamentally primitive" on their own (like it ends up just switching a relay or reading a sensor or something, making even an Arduino feel bored), but do benefit from some sort of complex display output (sensor read-outs, long text messages, plots), since you just talk to it over serial. The touchscreen versions are particularly handy, you can basically implement the whole GUI *in the display* - I turned one into a simple internet radio control panel (which yes, ended up being served by a full computer, but its single display output was already busy doing something else).
Anyway, great video, I found myself reaching for the like button a dozen times throughout, love your delivery!
Really enjoying these compilations
The jokes in this video are of such high quality that my brain of foreign language makes me burst of laughter ~ 3 seconds after you make them. Love it. Makes me have to rewind every now and then to recap what actually happened afterwards.
Bambu could easily open up that NFC spool tag system so that other filament manufacturers could support it (or people could custom-program tags for other spools to have them plug and play the same way). And other printer manufacturers would be able to implement it too, like how Bambu has built on open designs others have made.
Unfortunately from what I've heard they don't seem that interested in supporting the open source community themselves in any way.
Saying that they don't want to support OSS is overstatement. They released Bambu Slicer, which then got forked to Orca Slicer which is an amazing slicer.
@@armLocalhost And how much "want" is there exactly? Given you have to release slicer binaries, so that people can actually run and use the bloody thing, it would take someone all of 4 minutes to figure out what that was forked from. And that came with Affero GPL 3.0 obligations attached to it.
@@SianaGearz I didn't understand your point. They added improvements to the form and released it.
Regarding of licenses no one cares about them until they are enforced.
Marlin is also GPLv3 and looks like Bambu used a modified version of it but they didn't release anything.
@@armLocalhost and I will never support a company that does that sort of stuff.
@@FAB1150 you probably already do unintentionally but whatever. Being a radical open source fanatic is like to being a millionaire and claiming to be communist.
I don't think I've ever laughed more during a review of anything. This whole video was a treat.
Zack,
Great video. Thank you for sharing these products and giving honest grades. In the Creationspace electric screwdriver section, you mentioned it came with tools, a magnetizing thing and a useless bit. I may be wrong as they were shown quickly, I believe the magnet thing is used to show magnetic fields. Put it on a magnet and it shows patterns. The bit looks to be an extension for longer reach. Hopefully, if that's what they are, they actually work lol. Anyway, thanks again. Keep up the great work, you've earned a subscriber.
Andrew
A WinAmp joke 🤣 you made my day Zach
I was looking to see if anyone had caught the joke prior to just this moment. You did. A winrar is you.
44:15 - that adapter allows you to use the mini-bits in a regular sized bit holder. They also exist in the iFixIt-kits.
I laughed so hard at the e-bike review. Subbed!
Great! I already track the cycle but I love the idea of automatically decreasing the number of dishwasher pods and automatically adding detergent to the shopping list- will build this as well!
The electric screwdriver looks suspiciously like the "wowstick" one i got from aliexpress years back. I quite liked it. Its not a replacement for a regular one but great when tinkering with M3s in projects. I ended up liking the slippery nature as it made it possible to torque control my screws by varying me grip preassure.
Also, worst comes to worst and he hates the slippery nature, I imagine some double sided tape and a not too rough sandpaper, or maybe rubber. Get you all the grip you'd need.
@@NEEDbacon You know that most of his 3D printers can print TPU? And like a cylinder with a little bit of smaller cylinders subtracted is easily whipped up.
Double sided tape with anything is an open invitation for the covering to unwrap wherever the seam is.
Lazy mode and yet good is just heatshrink. You get adhesive lined as well, extra hold. I'm sure he has a ton of it.
I just purchased a Wowstick last year and I thought the same thing. Same shape, color, head design. The only difference is this one is 150% scale and has some fancy additional buttons.
gonna be honest i hated using mine, compared to my thicc boi electric torque driver and my dollar store drill its kinda useless. (plus torque drivers sound wayyyyy more satisfying)
Super excited we got another episode. Your videos are helping me figure out deciding on a printer too.
Pin 35 input only will be engraved on my brain for years. It solved a bug in my project of the week. Thank You
Encrypted filament sounds totally wrong.
Finally a new video ! I don't know how you did it, but you've become my favourite tech maker youtuber in just about a month. I am a technical artist by trade but damn making electronics, soldering and 3d printing seems like heaps of fun. I can't wait to have the time to start my own little project
Great videos, Zack. I noticed while you were talking about your standing desk that you have a 3D Connexion Spacemouse in the middle of your split keyboard. Is it separate or did you combine them somehow? Very curious about that setup. Thanks.
There are dozens of us who have the 3D spacemouse, DOZENS!
@@orinn777 I guess 13 is more than a dozen :D so DOZENS!
@@orinn777 Im definitely stealing this
@@orinn777 I've been looking for a FOSS alternative to that thing for so long...
I got one of those as well. My friend and I call them "Spaceballs" after the movie, haha.
😂 the commentary is the internet I didn’t know I need to day, literally cried laughing during the m6 segment 😂😂
Love the fact that your funny face pulled in the thumbnail looks almost exactly like one of the guys from Viva La Dirt League when he pulls a funny face.
I have a "Dremel GO" electric screwdriver and it has a little torque selector knob on the back of it, the lowest setting of which behaves similar to how I imagine the CreationSpace driver does.
But, turn it up to max... and the thing will spin right out of your hand when the screw stops turning. It's a powerful little tool. I've put together WAY more IKEA flatpaks than I ever wanted to in my life, and it certainly saved me from the carpal tunnel
Surprisingly I find these videos not only entertaining but great information sources. Things like that pocket screw driver is tbh something I may save to buy
The Polarna M-6 has got to be a relatively long distance commuter bike for those blessed with safe paths.
More videos!!!! I want Zack working 20 hour days creating very entertaining videos so I can have 15-30 minutes of entertainment a couple of times a week. I demand this.
I'm... pretty sure I'm working at a Flexispot right now, ironically. It looks a lot like the standing desks at my school's computer lab.
Just so you know, they break pretty easily, and if you have something underneath it (like a particle board for life drawing easels) it can very easily get crushed. half the ones at my school don't work anymore.
This bike looks VERY VERY similar to my ENGWE EP-2 also a folding bike. Have you tried putting it into mode 5, where the throttle actually works? Keep pressing the + button.
You reach for an electric screwdriver and regret it. I reach for an impact driver and reget it. We are not the same.
7:10 nice njb/strong towns reference 👍
I think it would help for the “last miles” and leave it in your car trunk. Park in one spot in town and bike to all the in-town stuff you want
they sell cat converters at shady scrap yards. it's become more difficult recently but it's still possible.
The best part of the meteor screen is how the box says "LCD display". Since the "D" in "LCD" IS THE WORD "display".
Liquid Crystal Display Display.
Beautiful.
There's nothing wrong with this even though it triggers grammar Nazis
The adapter allows you to put the reduced-shank H4 bits in a standard 1/4" driver. You probably wouldn't do that with a T6 because you'd already have a good one. But for stuff like security bits where the bit is more important than the driver, it's super helpful.
the bike sounds like something you don't necessarily want to keep. mine was stolen not long ago. if you wish to free the space occupied by said bike, I'm willing to sacrifice my own space just to be of service to yourself
That was a fun variety of "smart" devices. The face sensor was definitely my favorite. Doubt I'd ever have a use for that but it really was smarter than it has any right to be for its price point.
"Where do meth-heads actually sell all the catalytic converters and balls of wires and sh*t? Methmaster-Carr?"
And the worst part is that the prices would be more affordable than the real place 😆
Superbly entertaining as always. Now i want a sonic scredriver but will settle for the little electric one as I find myself doing assembly/disassembly more often than solving time/dimension problems
Those adjustable workspaces and desks are tempting! Zack, do you use an air purifier in your space with all of the 3D printers?
The fact that the badging is optional on the touch screen is amazing.
Wow I’m glad you talked about the miniware es-121. I’ve been wanting to get one for ages. They all list torque output but it’s hard to know what’s a meaningful difference / amount without owning one.
There's a newer model since like 1.5 years, ES15. That thing has been torque AF for me.
You never fail to make me laugh. Good work, dude.
this is definitely not where i expected to see you, but i suppose considering all the sick USBs you print i shouldnt be surprised!
Up is the direction this monitor is ducked... love it 😂
Top notch writing as usual. Great video!
I love these videos. hearing you rip on the stuff every other youtuber reviewed is awesome. Despite the fact that you are inherently compromised by the video format, I still appreciate your assessment of the products.
Been using a v400 for 8 months now, very happy with it. It works great out of the box and I've done more printing with it in 9 months than I've done in 5 years. Wouldn't swap it for the world!
I'm like where is this going.... from the Gekko. Lmao. Thank you
You should definitely give this all away at rocky mountain rep rap fest!
Omg I agree, our house is full lol. I'll mention this to Zack when he wakes up
Styropyro gave the Flexispot desk a good review as well. If two smart guys say something works well, I trust them 😅
I think nilered made endorsement to So yeah sounds like a solid Desk. The desk in the Office i work cost 250€ and would certanly break if i jumper on them like shown in the Video, (normal desk, no smarts)
Zack Freedman - You're reviews are straight up, stone cold savage. Subscribed.
I did not stop laughing and learning at the same time. Amazing
Zack, as much as we love the RGB-infused thingy behind you in the new lab, we miss the parts rainbow! Bring back the bins please!
They'll be back. This is actually not the room we're supposed to be filming in, pretty sure next vid will be in the main lab with the parts rainbow back in action!
The bike's site says 5 levels of assist and 8 gears. Are you sure you used all the gears and not just the 5 levels of assist? It seems odd the lowest speed is 15mph.
The motor is a hub motor, it doesn't run through the gears - they only affect the speed and torque on the pedals.
41:20 I own a Wowstick electric screwdriver since 2019 and a second one since 2020, they're suspiciously similar to this CreationSpace (huh?) and they work wonderfully. Plenty of torque for that first/last half-turn, although sometimes you have to aid them a little in un-sticking particularly stuck screws.
I started using them for everything, then I realized that they're perfect for large amounts of screwing (heh), but too much of a hassle (find device, find the right bit between dozens of them, maybe replace/charge battery) for a 10-screw job. Some of the bits are pretty weird and I just have the Wowstick ones, so they've saved me a few times. All in all, I'd buy another if these ones should fail.
what kind of monitor was the 19 inch touch screen one in the desk part of this?
I've been printing with pet from ultrafuse and I've had no warping. It's been great and it's recyclable. Atleast they say it's not a composite, but I'm storing it and gonna do more research. Seems really promising
His commentary will forever be internet gold. Holy crap. 😂so good
Hey Zack, I loved the video! I just wanted to let you know that there seems to be a high pitched whine in a lot of recording which I could hear when listening with my headphones.
Weird question, but could I ask how old you are? I didn't hear anything of the sort, but I'm old and it might be too high-pitched for me to hear.
@@ZackFreedman I'm just over 18 lol, I also checked with other audio sources from my computer and they didn't cause the noise.
By the way, Ultimaker has been doing this for years where they put a RFID into their filament spools. It does track usage, and lets you know when it isn't compatible with the loaded printhead.
Zack the only youtuber sponsored segment that I *_dont_* skip🖖
I gotta recomend the Vman electric precision screwdriver as a cheaper alternative to the one in the vid. $25, and not round (so its easier to grip), but it also doesnt come with a microchuck. Cant say if it has more torque or not, but I still use it all the time so I guess its got enough juice.
I just use a electric ratchet from milwaukee with a 1/4" quick disconnect on it and hex bits for anything I need. Its like 35FT/lbs of torque. It is a lot bigger but the right angle part usually keeps it out of the way. its even super handy for Ikea furniture.
The pacing on the video/editing is great!
I have the Yamee Fat Bear which is this bike practically identically and you can easily access the programming menu to adjust the power to any resolution you desire. Also has soft start selections etc. Also, I love my Creality Sonic Pad and while I pined for the v400 as my next printer, you are the only one I have seen that exposed serious and valid turn offs to the thing. It's gorgeous table candy, but if I can't blow my Ender 3 into a Goodwill clearance bin with it, then why would I drop a grand on it?
So.... I'd just like to reach out and say that I love your videos and prosaic pronunciation and conveyance of your topics! I have a horrible habit of watching UA-cam at 1.5-2x speed and you're one the few channels that I like to watch wholeheartedly at normal speed. Thanks for your contribution. I'm sorry I can't participate more, but rest assured you're the reason for my limited funds to go to 3d printing and more importantly, the efficentization of my effective habitat and general peace of mind!
That's not a horrible habit, dude. Most youtubers seem to speak obnoxiously slow.
7:02 That thing looks like it weighs as much as my dirtbike lmao
The one patron who just plugged their business at the end of the video is a marketing genius.
But can the Person Sensor detect dark skin tones? Most of these facial recognition sensors have issues with that. They're racist.
WinAmp! It really whips the llama's ass!
What are the products at 9:20 please. The arm and monitors are EXACTLY what I’m looking for in a setup. Please reply.
Do you have a video on that keyboard you are currently using?
You bring joy to otherwise lame product reviews. Thanks for your time you put into your videos and narration and jokes :)
Dude, u r one hilarious person out there . Love your humor a lot! Regards from far Ukraine!
I put your profile pic in the video
44:53 I use a set of hex-socket drillbits in a screwdriver for soft plastics. It's so much better than a drill in many cases. Also the cone-expanding type of drillbits with hex-socket, in a handtool you get precision you won't find in a drill.
So when does the Voron build star, which Voron and will it be live? I fall asleep watching other people build their and I think you might be entertaining enough to keep me awake lol
The electric screwdriver I use that is a Craftsman, cost $40 and it has enough torque to drive 3" screws into wood. It has a gyro to adjust speed by turning your hand while pressing the button, and it's rubberized. One of the best purchases I made for electronics. I use a 3/8 to 1/4 adapter for smaller projects, and I have never torqued something down too hard by accident.
So something that would be bad for small electronics, got it
The rfid tags for the spools are pretty slick, I hate having to adjust temps and settings when I change them. Every printer should have that and spools should come with them
25:39 😂 I take apart most things I buy just to see what's in them, lol
Yes I got the llama comment. I was a huge fan of winamp. Also after listening to your every type of filament video and the way you can word things and talk in the way you do like a constant tounge twister I subscribed. Which is very rare as I think I have only ever done that about 3 times. Thank you. As a side note have you done one on the most conductive filament yet? Should I search for it? I would love the option to be able to print tracks into my models etc for motors I can just use an alligator clip on lol
Pretty sure that screw driver is just a re-cased generic micro driver. I have one that is nearly identical from Kaiweets. I was going to return it, but I took some heatshrink and put a couple layers on either side of the buttons and its a whole lot easier to hold on to.
Zack my team and I at PTZOptics are always watching your videos, what a treat. I would love to see a 3D printer throwdown.
"Speeds between dead halt and call-my-lawyer" - laughed out loud and woke people up.
You the man, how's the new place coming along?
Love not only the review of weird gadgets, but the interesting look behind the curtain at the kind of offers UA-camrs get. Now all you need to do is review all the garbage mobile games I'm sure you've gotten sponsorship offers for XD
