that intro showing how to scale for a head scan model is always appreciated. I have to start doing this lol
Just got my P1S 😊 This video arrived just in time! Thanks UJ for the awesome content as always!
My P1P is coming Thursday. So I’m excited to see any video about it and it’s software. Thanks for the video
I have the last big piece of the Ironman MK2 printing on my P1P right now. Loving my machine. Thanks for the tips!
This is awesome. When I do helmets, in Modo, I draw a contour around a mannequin head that I scanned and using a constraint, I can measure my exact head circumference (which is 24in). And my helmets will ALWAYS fit
Would love to see an indepth tutorial on using the bambu x1 slicer!
Perfect, Great information here!
Nikko is insane. I love it.
I literally told him the same thing 😂🤣
I really appreciate you showing failed prints and unideal scaling. Cosplay props are the worst for those kinds of things
Ordered my x1 on friday, can't wait! Thanks Tax Return!
Nice one. I love the Tree Support Slim on my X1...so good.
Thanks for the 1 wall dome tip!
Great info just wish I saw it 4 hours ago before I started this 12 hour print :)
Currently working on a 90% size F-35 helmet for my son and printing the main shell now out of black PLA to do a test fit but if it works I won't reprint it. This is gonna be a big project though with the X1C handling the larger items and my coming soon Anycubic Photon M7 handling the smaller bits, flexible parts like the oxygen mask and the clear front face shields. Tossed those into the Anycubic Photon Workshop and the fronts will just fit on the resin printer so I'll use some clear resin to print those. Got some hydrodip carbon fiber patterns coming as well to match the real helmet shell patterns. Gonna be epic when it's complete!
Curious if you've ever used armorsmith for resizing prints? I grabbed a copy a few months ago and it's been great! I don't have an iPhone though nor did I have access to your calliper file back then 😂
Bambu needs to get a 350x350x350 or a 400x400x400 unit out there with a few more improvements to the machine and slicer. If that happens with a sub-$1000 price, they will own the FDM market.
Already wish my x1c had a bigger build volume :'(. I still have a cr10 around if I need it but it just don't compare in speed or quality.
This is the one thing giving me pause to hitting 'add to cart' for this. I really hope they come out with something.
@@jet613If they do make a bigger volume printer the speed will definitely not be as fast as the X1 or P1. But the fact it could do multiple colors it would be worth it! I hope they come out with one but I can’t imagine how much it’ll cost for something that size.
Im hoping to buy the P1S in a couple days. Gonna make some money off the prints because people keep asking me for multiple colored prints. 🤷🏻♂️
@@boddlookthey have explicitly stated that this generation of printers will not but it is in the pipeline.
@@LordNerfherder Can’t wait for it
Love the content! Please upload more frequently.! :)
Thanks! Working on it! 4 more vids planned 🤞 before end of the month
@@UncleJessy saw your new video. Great vid!!
Thank you so much for these awesome tips! I've never printed a helmet before so this will definitely speed things up!
Random question; do you ever use PETG for your helmet prints?
Leave space to install padding. It will also slow the heat build up. Find a way to have air vents. Which filament could offer the best (impact or blow) protection? or survive a party atmosphere?
Need a 350mm Bambu X2
Would you please please please do a video on how to print helmets like this on the Elegoo Neptune Pro?? I’m a newbie and kinda lost lol. THanks for all the great videos!👍
Great video. Gunna give it a go when I have free printer time.
Thanks for the video. I was planning on getting a k1 Max for the large build plate but I can’t get of BL’s AMS since I like to print toys out for my kids and nieces/nephews. I can’t decide lol.
Hey man thank you very much for the Video! :) Out of curiosity, where can I find this awesome monster-skull helmet?
Great video iam looking at printing my first helmet just wondering what filament are you using?
sweet~ first lol also, the amount of times run off and print it comes into my head now because of your vids is wild haha
Thank you very much for the Video! :) Where can I find this awesome monster-skull helmet?
Nice, What support interface setting do you use ? Looks like a nice gap there.
Hi uncle jessy, may i ask what will be the layer height and print speed for such size of print, thank you!
Just ordered a P1P, pretty pumped! Going to take some getting used to that smaller bed vs my trusty old, but HUGE, Chiron. Any suggestions for an Android based Scanner?
What are you printer settings that you use on helmets since you’ve made so many
How affected is the lidar sensor and calibration with the textured build plate, i saw that Bambu had some Cons with regards to using a textured build plate on there site. Is it worth the trade offs ?
Thanks 👍🏾
Are you printing with a .4mm nozzle? or have you swapped to a .6mm? Love the content btw, keep it up!
X1 + ams I have a .4 nozzle, my p1p is a .4 nozzle, my 3rd x1 i have a .6 nozzle on there. Honestly with the X1 I havent noticed a massive time savings from going to the .4 to .6. However the prints are a lot thicker/durable
Woah, nine and a half hour to print a full size helmet? That's impressive.
I think it's safe to say Uncle Jessy is a Marvel Fan 😄 Amazing video, keep up the great work.
🤣
Haha I do love Batman & Spawn. Oh I think Nikko has a spawn helmet 🤘😬
Do you have any suggestions on how to slice up a model but make it organic?
Just started watching your videos. Would be interested in your opinion on purchasing a Bambu Lab X1 now or if you think it's worth waiting another 6 months for them to further fine tune? Maybe I'll find a Bar next to Bambu Labs Headquarters and buy the right talkative employee a few drinks.....
@uncle Jessy
Please mention what filament maker and material you use for this prints,even if you don't mention or add a link.I am order a X1C and I know some Filaments perform poorly on that printer.Thanks.
One of the things I didn't like about my X1C with the AMS was when doing multi material prints I noticed the filament was ramming through the PTFE tubing
It wasn't causing any issues but I did swap out the PTFE that came stock from the AMS all the way to the extruder for Capricorn tubing
Smooooooooth as silk now and although I can't say with 100% certainty that it helped with the filament purging between colors since I swapped out the tubing I've been able to reduce my flushing volumes with no color bleeding what so ever
I also noticed since the swap that my 24 minute benchy does not have the little zits in the back
I wanted to know why the bottom of the hull on the benchy looked shiny compared to the upper half so I printed it in clear PLA
That is simply the infill on the bottom half giving that effect and it looks to be at around 5% infill
I'm happy you are enjoying your Bambulab printer, the first one you got was a dud and that sucked
I also added LED lights under my AMS which lights up the build area very bright but I leave it off during the calibration process so the lidar doesn't give a false reading
What length did you end up needing?
@@austinouellette I ordered 2 meters which is obviously wayyyy more than enough lol
The AMS has 4 short lengths, then from the AMS to the hub and then the hub to the back of the printer and finally from the back of the printer to the extruder
I cut all lengths to the exact same length as factory so I can measure them up when I get home from work and give you a total length if you like ?
@@austinouellette well my estimations for how much I used were a bit off 🤦♂️
I change the PTFE on all of my machines including one reverse bowden printer I run
That being said I always have at least 4 meters of Capricorn tubing on hand
I measured up what I used and it's over 2 meters
82.64 inches in total if that helps
I thought it was less than that 🤷♂️
Im sold. Just placed my order
This couldn’t be more timely. I bought this printer because of your review. And all I want to do is print the waksbda forever black panther mask lol
I have a pre order for the Prusa XL 5 head. But after seeing your videos and others on issues I’m strongly considering cancelling my order and getting the X1C. I’m wanting to print full size helmets and I’m a big guy (6’7”). Would you recommend this printer or keep my preorder for the XL? Really wanting quality, and consistency as well as longevity.
My helmets inside dome always have string loops with and without supports on X1C
Can you do a video on how to fix it, please?
How to get rid of swirls on the bottom surface of your prints? Not the touching the plate but the surface touching the supports. Thank you.
Would love to know how you get these speeds. I feel like all of my p1p prints take way too long.
What filament do you recommend for helmets on the P1P, PLA or PETG?
hello Jessy dear, what is the program you use to adjust all the details
Hi Uncle Jesse can you please help me i need your help. I'm trying to print quite tall cylinder shapes on my elegoo saturn and the prints are saying 6hrs but the print is taking 22hrs?? i can't find anyhting on how to setup chitubox for faster printing and i know the Bottom lift speed and lifting speed have a big part to play but i'm to afraid to change these. can you please do a video showing in depth what we can do with these setting for chitubox V1.9.4. thank you so much
Wish they made a larger version.
Do you actually wear them at conventions? If yes, you have some "filling" inside to make it more comfortable to wear?
So if you are using your scan of your head why not just scale it to a bigger size and use your head scan to cut the inside of the helmet for a perfect fit?
Are those the new beta only slim tree supports?
Any suggestions on how to get a decent scan of someone's head if they don't have help?
If you just get the front / side that might be good enough for rough scaling. Or you could map to another head scan online
I've got to do this :P I have both the printer and the subscription lol
What is that scanning app you use? I couldn't make out what you said.
I want to get the P1P but can you also print full size helmets like the power ranger ones with it? Thanks!
Depending on the size a helmet like a power ranger will probably fit! You can also download Bambu studio/orca slicer & bring in a helmet file to see how well it would fit
Thank you@@UncleJessy . I actually end up picking up the P1P. Just brought in the helmet file, the top and forehead won't fit at 100% scale, what scale do you recommend?
Out of curiosity for those speeds what layer height/nozzle are you using?
His Bambu Studio settings show he's using the 'standard' 0.4mm nozzle with the 0.2mm layer height profile.
any one know how to get that support blocker column in bambu studio?
what speed do you used for the prints?
i think these will be best 10 coins spent for a long time
What app do you use on iPhone to Scan?
What is the print of the skull helmet? I searched. Nikko and can’t find it
Now all i need is a new head small enough for the X1.
Hey Uncle Jessy, quick question. I’m looking to print RC semi truck bodies in 1/14 for projects. I’m looking between the X1C for fan or the Elegoo Jupiter for resin. I like the idea of how smooth the resin printer will print but have read that resin prints aren’t very strong. What would you recommend between the 2 for rc bodies
I.
WANT.
ONE.
I just looked at this because I wanted to print helmets in a 256mm³ build area, for.... reasons... Where I get stuck with this guide, is that I have a fat head :(
Gotta ask, is that skull helmet Kurgan from highlander?
Indeed! Have wanted one forever and just saw it on Nikkos site
First thing that came to my mind from the thumbnail was ... "There can be only one!" 🤪
Been looking for that helm for ages! Now I know where I need to go find it. Thanks
impressive on a 256mm pritner too
the best i can do on comparable builds is 12 hours. how does it do it in 6?
So I use my DSLR to take pictures. There is an android app that works pretty good. I think they have a free version but I paid $5. And you can either use the phone app, but I just upload the pictures from a computer browser. So if you don't have a cell phone you can just do that.
Do you know what the Andriod app is called?
I want a x1 😂😂
what slicer are you using?
bambu slicer. its the default for those printers
The green helmet that didn't print with nice detail, you can always paint it and use the defects to give it a wartorn look. Just saying
Also helps to have a smaller head hahaha!!
HOW DID U GET IT TO 9 HOURS MY PRINTER SAYS 13 HOURS
who needs ears hay lol ..smash and bash
super video who would of thought helmets
Print it larger and add expanded polystyrene to it like a real helmet.
Those visible layers on the top of the helmet is not ringing, that is not the correct term. Ringing is a a ghosted afterimage of some detail in the print.
To be fair, I'd have a big head if I had an X1C😂
Yes. But how can you make the prints go faster. I love your channel and prints but too slow 🐌 😪 😴 😢
But I have a huge head :/
To Summarize the video. Bambu Lab X1C, P1P, P1S isn't enough for helmets. Who wants to print in 2 separate object, bind them and sand? too much time wasted
advertisement. this whole video is a long and stupid advertisement.
