No multicolor garbage of the week, love it!
Anyway to mount to the build surface so the model doesn’t move in the image. Seems like it would be easier to tell if there is a problem.
Another great video, good tip about single wall on top face, didn't even know about that, thank you
Can you elaborate on “klipper picked this camera right up”?
I have the N4+, bought this camera, printed your bracket and I can’t get klipper to recognize the camera. Lots of garbage on Reddit about how to hack it in, but you didn’t make it sound that way.
Much appreciated!
Update the Software
Yes on the review! I'm looking at the plus and been holding off due to the issues.
Plus is great
Good job on the design and the print. It sure looks professional and very looks to be very strong as well. Nice work thanks for the video.
thx
Nice trick for ironing with the modifier cube. I’ll have to try that. Only other main use I’ve experimented with is ironing top layers to enable stacked prints with .2mm gaps. Seems to help allow them release, though with some degradation of the surface finish.
that's a great idea! thx for sharing
I just printed this and attached an Aliexpress webcam that looked similar and it is great.
Brilliant just printed it for my Neptune 4 plus and it works so well, I love it.
Great video.
If I may.... With a caliper you can find out: 2 diameters involved and the height separating them. Assuming it's a portion of a sphere/circle....
Please tell me if I missed something.
As always a nice project!
yes, please review Neptune. Also, did you hear about hacking bamboo?
What's this about hacking?
I did, and it looks like Bambu (so far) is embracing it, with guardrails
checkout "X1Plus" firmware. teaching tech did a great video on it
The mount is perfect but when I try to add camera on fluidd it shows nothing. What settings for camera also do i need another program?
The on criticism I have is that you could’ve easily avoided support if you made a large chamfer on the arm holding the camera, and then print the whole thing on its side. Great video though!
thx. I thought about it, but then I'd have to give up the sweet logo look on the top
Really nice print! Looks like it came from the factory. I've considered getting this same machine so I'd love to see a review. I'm on the fence between this on and waiting for what Bambu comes up with for a large format machine. Guessing Bambu won't have a build volume quite as big as this one though
I have the X1 and also a N4Max. I've been spoiled by how easy it is to print on the Bambu...unless you are in desperate need for the 420x420 build area, then wait for Bambu. If I'm a betting man it will be Prusa XL size of 360x360
i'll be dissapointed if it's only 360x360. as much as I hate the issues I've had with the N4Max, I wouldn't want smaller
thx! I always start by saying to myself "what would it look like if it came with it". that's usually overkill, but I can't help myself :)
I have the Neptune 3 Pro and haven't had any issues. I find it strange and unfortunate that this model has the firmware issues.
I'm also always glad to see not a Bambu! The space is flooded with them, like the $99 Enders.
it's true, the bambu's are all you see anymore, but there's a reason why . .
@@FunctionalPrintFriday I'm not saying they're bad, my biggest thing against them is how closed source they are. But they are good at getting good product into more people's homes.
Yeh, I would much rather they were open source, but I do like what I'm seeing from them so far regarding how they are handling the X1Plus firmware@@aetherguy881
been looking for a printer with a larger print bed. Disappointing you said these have problems.
it's still a great deal for the build size. bambu has just spoiled us with
10:55 could you invert it on a work bench then heat the strands up and then press them into the “upper” layers?
not without distorting the print. would take too much heat to get the layer underneath them hot enough to melt them together
@@FunctionalPrintFriday i was thinking about those little gas burners to heat the underside quick and then press with a pallet knife or parallel to smush the sticky hot filament. possibly it might just melt the strands away and allow you to sand it.
You missed the perfect opportunity to end the video by removing the Benchy from the build plate and IMMEDIATELY throwing it into the trash.
Great video. Thanks for the work on the mount. I happened to get a very similar camera off AliExpress for $5.59 (yeah, stupid price but its actually not bad and worked on the neptune 4 plus without a hitch). Good advice on the method for threading the screws... not many people know to do that. Thumbs up and a subscribe from me. Thank you!
Can you make for Beagle v2 ?
super vidéo merci
Did you consider rotating the camera 90 degrees (assuming Clipper can rotate the image by 90 degrees)? That might have given a better overall vertical view while still providing sufficient horizontal view to see enough of the bed.
Wondered the same thing. It's clearly got a wider view than it needs.
appreciate the suggestion, but you really only need to see the height at which you're printing. I find the horizontal view more valuable personally
Try ironing on all top layers. I find it works well - I set it to 10% extrusion in Cura.
Looks like that part should fit on the Neptune 3 series as well? We'll find out for sure tonight! I realize the base was removed for weight savings, but I might try to modify (drill a hole lol) for a standard 1/4"-20 screw.
Ha ha, your first benchy. I have printed a tonne with my MK3S+ and to this day I still have not printed a benchy.
I've been playing around with goosenecks and tripod mounts, this is definitely the way to go. I'm not going to use that webcam, but I'll try to adapt an action camera I have around to your bracket. Thanks for doing this.
Very nice project and attention to detail. I was wondering if threaded metal inserts would be good for the threaded screw holes?
Very nice project, great designing job. Thank you.
I downloaded and printed mount for my Neptune 4 max. Ordered the camera and assume you power it with your pc and not the printer? Also how do I access remotely to watch on my phone?
Plugs into the front of the printer. Access is via the klipper interface
Thank you and I assume just transfer print files through wifi correct?
Still does not work
