    I would like to see some time lapse for the A1. I'm trying to decided if I want to purchase the A1 and was wondering how well the camera does time lapse.

    • @BV3D
      @BV3D  5 місяців тому

      In my initial A1 video, I have a time lapse of a 3D Benchy at about the 4 minute, 22 second mark (ua-cam.com/video/cbHtZtyXxY4/v-deo.htmlsi=Z3UHvhBcWtlwKlH0&t=262). In the video, the time lapse is sped up slightly to fit, but using the smooth time lapse setting in Bambu Studio will produce a decent time lapse. Good lighting helps. The camera looks to the left side of the printer, and has a wide angle lens, so it also helps to have either a wall there, or some kind of backdrop.

    • @BV3D
      @BV3D  6 місяців тому +4

      I don't think Cura has something like this built in, but there *might* be a plug-in that will do it.
      Or, you could do it in PrusaSlicer, and then export it as an STL. Import the STL into Cura and then slice & print.

    First of all, I'll let you know that it has nothing to do with the channel, it's just a rant about the world of 3D printing.
    Today, I bring a different perspective on 3D printers, based on the research I carried out.
    I came to a conclusion that I would like to share.
    I have a comment about the world of 3D printing, which, contrary to what some say about accessibility, is still a world for few. Despite the criticism I may receive for this, I believe that although printers have become more affordable, there is still a long way to go before they become an achievable dream for many people, including myself.
    It's not just the initial cost of the printer that must be considered. An often overlooked point is the ongoing cost of the filament. Just like in the early days of inkjet printers, where the price of ink was an obstacle, today we face similar challenges with filament. Even though printers have become a little cheaper, filament remains a considerable investment.
    It is notable that over the years we have not seen a significant reduction in filament prices. There appears to be a lack of real competition, resulting in companies setting prices almost like a monopoly. Filament quality is also a concern, with reports of poor quality not justifying the investment.
    Another aspect that is rarely addressed is the amount of material wasted due to unsuccessful prints, especially for beginners. Even though errors decrease over time, they do not disappear completely. This is a relevant point to consider, as it contributes to additional costs and not to mention environmental issues.
    That's why I say it and I repeat, cast the first stone if anyone who has never been through this, even with vast experience, still continues to print with errors and has to do it all over again, no matter the printer or your knowledge, there will be errors and as a result waste of material and input costs. what do we need and start thinking about this issue, well the filament should be cheaper, it would help the person who bought it and nature thanks you.
    antes de qualquer coisa ja aviso que não tem nada a ver com o canal é apenas um desabafo sobre o mudo das impressões 3d
    Hoje, trago uma perspectiva diferente sobre impressoras 3D, baseada nas pesquisas que realizei.
    Cheguei a uma conclusão que gostaria de compartilhar.
    Tenho um comentário sobre o universo da impressão 3D, que, ao contrário do que alguns afirmam sobre a acessibilidade, ainda é um mundo para poucos. Apesar das críticas que posso receber por isso, acredito que, embora as impressoras tenham se tornado mais acessíveis, ainda há um longo caminho para que se tornem um sonho alcançável para muitas pessoas, incluindo eu mesmo.
    Não é apenas o custo inicial da impressora que deve ser considerado. Um ponto muitas vezes negligenciado é o custo contínuo do filamento. Assim como no início das impressoras a jato de tinta, onde o preço da tinta era um obstáculo, hoje enfrentamos desafios semelhantes com o filamento. Mesmo que as impressoras tenham ficado um pouco mais baratas, o filamento continua sendo um investimento considerável.
    É notável que, ao longo dos anos, não tenhamos visto uma redução significativa nos preços do filamento. Parece haver uma falta de concorrência real, resultando em empresas que estabelecem preços quase como um monopólio. A qualidade do filamento também é uma preocupação, com relatos de baixa qualidade que não justificam o investimento.
    Outro aspecto pouco abordado é a quantidade de material desperdiçado devido a impressões mal sucedidas, especialmente para iniciantes. Mesmo que os erros diminuam com o tempo, não desaparecem completamente. Este é um ponto relevante a considerar, pois contribui para custos adicionais e sem falar das questões ambientais.
    por isso falo e repito , atire a primeira pedra quem nunca passou por isso ,mesmo com uma vasta experiência, ainda continua imprimindo com falhas e teve que fazer tudo de novo , não importa a impressora ou seu conhecimento , vai haver erros e como consequência desperdício de material e gastos com insumos. o que precisamos e começar a pensar sobre esta questão , poxa bem que o filamento deveria ser mais barato , ajudaria a pessoa que comprou e a natureza agradece.

      @@m.samsungj3392 Low poly models have a reduced polygon count, making them lighter and easier to print. This characteristic is relevant to the use of the filament. I want to say that the model presented in the video involves the use of filament. However, not everything is rosy; Errors may still occur during the printing process, resulting in loss of material and, consequently, additional expenses with inputs, as is the case with this model.
      The point I'm making is that many people seem to passively accept filament waste and the costs associated with it (like high-speed printers). My intention is not to criticize the channel or any person in particular, but rather to alert people to deeper reflection on this aspect.
      It is crucial to consider how we can minimize filament waste, both in terms of printing efficiency and in choosing models that can contribute to a more conscious use of resources. This reflection is an invitation for people to think and, if possible, act in a more sustainable way in relation to the use of materials in 3D printing
      Modelos low poly têm uma contagem reduzida de polígonos, tornando-os mais leves e mais fáceis de imprimir. Essa característica é relevante para o uso do filamento. Quero dizer que o modelo apresentado no vídeo implica o uso de filamento. No entanto, nem tudo são flores; ainda podem ocorrer erros durante o processo de impressão, resultando em perda de material e, consequentemente, gastos adicionais com insumos, como é o caso deste modelo.
      O ponto que estou enfatizando é que muitas pessoas parecem aceitar passivamente o desperdício de filamento e os custos associados a ele (como as impressoras de alta velocidade). Minha intenção não é criticar o canal ou qualquer pessoa em particular, mas sim alertar para uma reflexão mais profunda sobre esse aspecto.
      É crucial considerar como podemos minimizar o desperdício de filamento, tanto em termos de eficiência na impressão quanto na escolha de modelos que possam contribuir para uma utilização mais consciente dos recursos. Esta reflexão é um convite para que as pessoas pensem e, se possível, ajam de maneira mais sustentável em relação ao uso de materiais na impressão 3D
