I 3D Printed a LIFE Size Space Marine Helmet in Resin...It was Dumb. (Apexmaker X1)

Grab an APEXMAKER X1 and print MASSIVE! bitly.ws/WXPQ #ad
Apexmaker sent me a HUGE Resin 3D printer to play with. What else other than to print something huge and dumb with it like a wearable helmet, in resin? Everyone told me it was a bad idea and I did it anyway.
This is a paid overview, not a review of the machine.

Wargamer Resin by Who?

[@devildogwargaming7594]

I've been running one of these for the past couple of months. It's the gift that just keeps on giving.
The thing that I like the most, is the fact that you can experiment with printing angles, and know if you've done it right within an hour.

[@HellstormWargaming]

The speed is honestly pretty insane. Blown away by it

[@BaffledOrange]

Sizing seems perfect for padding it with foam and adding lights so it sits comfy and looks sick

[@HellstormWargaming]

Yeah! ExererCosplay recommended car sponges for padding too!

[@NatesMiniatures]

Awesome project! will have to look at something like this in the future. It would be a pain on the Elegoo Saturn 4k though XD

[@cloud-blade-ball]

I really don't get how you can make pristine models by dunking plastic into whatever that grey water is

[@NALDUS]

pretty much there is a precise led lights at the bottom of the resin the lights light up layer by layer hardening it and plate goes higher and higher as the layers build up to make ur print

[@Scott_A]

Doesn't using uv resin to join the parts mean that there is uncured resin in the middle of the joint where the light didn't reach, even when lighting from both sides (it is an awesome print, i was just wondering)

[@psychwithmike7852]

Hey, did you ever finish this helmet and video it? I was trying to find it but do not see it.

[@sircarter2428]

dude i clicked on your channel from another video and i thought you were just straight up weshammer lmao. keep up the good work.

[@HellstormWargaming]

I’m very not american

[@Skott62]

Wouldn't a helmet of same size printed by a fdm printer be heavier? I've heard resin prints are lighter than fdm style prints but I have no experience with resin printers so unsure.

[@RocketPunchHero1]

Did you hollow out the model on the helmet? That might have cut down on the weight? You can also mix additives like tiny glass spheres as a filler.

[@HellstormWargaming]

I did hollow the back sides but i didnt want the helmet plates to be hollow, just the larger portions (as I mentioned in the video! :) )

[@MercenaryQ]

Super fascinating video. Loved it as always

[@HellstormWargaming]

Glad you enjoyed it xxx

[@freeRadioArmageddon]

If it's going on shelf, why bother with back pieces 😅 there's bits on the front to fill out still.. led lights too

[@HellstormWargaming]

But it WOULD be good to finish it…

[@dpm911]

I printed the same helmet and im looking for a good solution for the eyes. Those LED helmet cosplay ones dont fit

[@handznet]

5 bottles? Oh my, definitely not a good idea haha:)

[@geoffhowell450]

Mega impressed

[@HellstormWargaming]

Cheers Geoffers! :)

[@wilduu]

to make it cost effective, use it to cast a high quality silicone mold!
then you can replicate helmets out of cheaper and lighter materials like a real prop pro!

[@HellstormWargaming]

casting faster than an actual forgeworld

[@forgefartherloki6585]

Im drooling rn

[@HellstormWargaming]

It’s very fun piece of kit

[@i_am_not_a_pro_but_lets_try]

did you ever finish the helmet?

[@ThePaintingCoach]

Nice vid!

[@lyken4]

Thanos is not a pointer stick!! 😆😆

[@tombackhouse7271]

Just checked the price. A bit out of my range I think😂 but what a beast

[@enderlain]

"It's a really nice print!"
Bruh. There's giant layer separation cracks, and messy, crooked edges all over that piece. Are you okay?

[@ArhainHainar]

My thats a big one

[@HellstormWargaming]

Love a big helmet on my face :)

[@miteruno]

im worried about your health, no safety measures at all and that space looks very non ventilated
