    This printer is AMAZING!!! But I'd love to have an Ankermake 12 inch (310 mm) square bed. If it is available, I'll be first in line for it! I am a reel-to-reel recorder enthusiast, so my aim is to create 10 1/2" reels!

    That fan noise is the classic sound of a cheap fan bearing failure. Mine does the same until the bearing warms up - or at least that’s what I assume is happening due to the poor bearing friction. A good quality fluid or magnetic bearing fan will get rid of the sound.

    Thanks for this Mark. If I literally just want an entry into 3d printing for some ESP cases and maybe a little fun with the kids (9 and 7) is there a printer or brand that you'd recommend? Was thinking I might try and pick something up second hand, but perhaps I'm better off getting a budget newer gen based on your comments?

    • @MarkWattTech
      @MarkWattTech  Pƙed 5 měsĂ­ci +2

      Hey Simon. Personally I think this printer would tick all the boxes for what you are looking for. Its a simple plug and play and you will be printing in minutes. I would definitely wait for a sale though if you are thinking of this printer. I picked up an additional unit recently on sale and also got a choice of filaments with it.
      As this is a newer higher end budget printer it has lots of great features that will save you a lot of headaches you will get if you just opt for a ÂŁ150 printer.
      Next year AnkerMake are releasing the V6 Colour engine which is an addon for this printer that will give full multicolour printing capability so could also be a great upgrade.

    yes it's the Pom Wheels working into the v-channels, it will do that for a little while, but will get less and less dust, the more you use it..

  • @Uhleekuh80
    @Uhleekuh80 Pƙed 6 měsĂ­ci +4

    Hi! Great video! I'm just digging for M5C content because I am looking to get one for the holidays. Thanks for the content.
    As far as the dust from the wheels, that is normal. The wheels are just wearing in. You just have to adjust the pressure on them by turning the nut. There are videos showing how to adjust them on other printers, but the same method applies to the M5C. Again, I don't have a printer. I just know this from all the damn reading I've been doing...haha.
    Thanks again for the video!

    I had an Aquila C2 and wow I’m sure that was a horrible first impression for you. Was my first printer and while it worked well, that was when it worked and that was _very_ rare. Upgraded to a P1S only a few weeks ago and it’s night and day

    Hey man, recently was sent one myself and that horrible sound on start up has started happening to me. Apparently I've read it's the fan in the base! They do sell replacement fans on their site though.
    The notification noise was so annoying that I had to turn it off as just like you, the sound upset EVERYONE!

    Hi, I wanted to ask if there is a usb port to use a thumb drive? Or are you able to upload your own designs to print?
    Also I really appreciate this being a genuine review. All the other ones are obviously sponsored with people saying only good things about the printer and testing it out for a couple days. This is a 5 month review talking about the pros *and* the cons and that’s very valuable

    • @MarkWattTech
      @MarkWattTech  Pƙed 5 měsĂ­ci +1

      Heya. Thanks for the feedback.
      There is a USB C port on the side that will allow you to store and print files from a USB C thumb drive. You can also send files from your phone and PC.

    Somewhat informational BUT your pronounciation IS unbarable. PLEASE don't raise the tone of your voice at the end of every sentence as if you want to add something. Instead lower it to END your sentence accoustically as well. Drove me insane half way through and made me abort the video.
