- 3D Printer - S02 E01 - The Prusa i3 MK2
A new Chapter in the NERDVille 3D printer world.
We introduce a serious piece of kit that the CZcams world has raved about. But is it all made out to be what the reviews tell us?... stick around and get a true view of a non-sponsored and HONEST opinion of how this printers was to built, calibrated and print with....

Hey Nerdville,
You are building so many wonderful things but the best of them are the relationships. The 'things' will be gone in 50 years but the way you honor your children will bear fruit for generations.
Go Nerdlings, go!
That is so true and I feel very humbled by your kind words. Thank you so much and I hope I can continue this for as long as I can.
Awesome video , I am so proud of my nerdlings and their dad who is a amazing father and role model. Truly blessed . 😘
I really love these stopmotion scenes! The affort you put in to your videos is wonderfull. Keep it up!
It was more fun than effort. The NERDLings love the whole process and seeing the final edit at the end is always awesome. Glad we could share this with CZcams.
THAT HANDS DOWN. WAS THE BEST UNBOXING VIDEO I HAVE EVER SEEN !!!!!
I am laying in the Hospital sick as a dog. I needed this today!! Was so cute and so much fun! Thanks all 3 of you guys!!! God Bless
Your most welcome and I pray you make a speedy recovery brother.
Thats a really well done unboxing :) Best i have seen
hehe thanks we had fun
I agree with him. Awesome work man
THAT WAS AN AWESOME UNBOXING!!! WHY DOESN'T THIS CHANNEL HAVE MORE SUBS?
Your children are quite adorable. I'd say you were lucky but I'm sure that being an excellent father and encouraging your kids to take part in your hobbies is far more responsible for that than 'luck.' Cheers and can't wait for your next video! Your production values continue to impress.
that's what I'm talking about. !! Fantastic ~Russ
LOL thank you it was a pleasure sharing this experience. BUT you by far have the best delta I have seen anywhere and I wish I had the tool shop and time to do what you do so incredibly well.
I love the way youve empowered your lads, Engineers of our future I reckon.
another very entertaining video. Thank you
The unboxing stop motion needed more time than building I think :) Awesome!
LOL the animation too around 3 hours and 2 hours to edit, could have built half a Prusa in the time hehe
That was an absolutley great unboxing video! I really liked the intro very much! :D
Coolest unboxing EVER!!!
+1 for showmanship mate, must have took a lot of editing this 1, looks like an epic new toy as well :)
Took a few hours in the evenings and weekends. I like to spend it with the kids in the NERDCave instead of glued to the TV or games machine LOL
I loved the stop motion unboxing, very neat! Keep up the awesome videos!
Best unboxing I've watched ever🤘🤘 very entertaining thank you!! Still waiting on my MK2 to arrive! I hope I get the same enjoyment as you've shown! 😎🤠
That stop-motion unboxing was awesome, I'm sure it took a long time to do, but the results are beautiful to watch.
I agree, with you on the build, It was an absolute dream to do. Luckily for me, my MK2 only took 3 days to arrive.
My other printers were built for learning too, but the MK2 is in a class of it's own.
I'm glad you agree. There comes a time where a DIY printer needs to stop being a tinkering toy and start being a full fledged tool. Very glad to have got the Prusa it means I can send a print knowing it is dimensionaly accurate and just get on with my other projects at last.
Love the stop motion and time-laps in this video. Well done!
Am also thinking about getting one myself, because I am a true starter in the 3D printing theme and don't want to tinker around with the cheap ones where it looks like you have to tinker a LOT until they really work. And it seems nearly everyone is hyped about the mk2 :)
Honestly, this is not a paid review of any kind. I strongly recommend this printer. I have been able to print CAD models with a 0.1mm +/- tolerance and parts have just snapped together like they were machine molded. AMAZING. Not say that things won't go wrong and they do but this will be covered in the Final part The ONLY Review
You sir are amazing, thank you for this excitment, joy and fun :)
Really looking forward for the full review, thought of getting me one of these kits for myself!. Keep up the good work!
hopefully this will follow with my own recommendations on how to make the install simpler for anyone wanting to build this kit.
Just found your channel. Love the way you present it and include your children. Keep up the great work. (Subbed)
Fantastic UNBOXING! loved it.
What a brilliant Dad you are mate ;-)
That's why we have kids......... Awesome!
I love this. Nerdling V1.. lol
yeah, I finally figured out why I have seen any new videos.
great video! I am jealous of your kids, you guys look like you have lots of fun together. :) my dad is great, but I'm all grown up now and we don't do fun stuff anymore, lol
LOL kids allow me to be a kid again. Just be the Dad/Uncle you wanted when you were a kid. that's my only advice
I am waiting to my own Prusa i3 MK2. Tomorrow it will come and I hope I will have same fun like you :-)
Vladislav Haltof you'll have great fun. Just take your time and read each instruction carefully. Probably better to download the PDF manual as you can zoom into the pictures. Be aware of the squareness of the y travel frame. And run the calibrations first. Msg me if you get stuck
Thanks!
What is your name "Nerd"? I cant find it :-)
I was realy funny weekend. Printer was working perfectly after first power on. My 2,5 year son try to help me, but you probably had more fun with your older sons.
I am proud for our citizen Josef Pruša.
Fantastic Unboxing ! video Enjoy the printing . I had ordered prusa i3 mk2 still waiting for the shipment. unable to control my excitement
hang in there it will be worth it. Make sure you run calibration before anything else
Great channel.. nice to have a fellow nerd in the UK
NERD4LIFE!!
Awesome unboxing👍 how long did that take to make?
"Invested in another printer". Whatever you have to tell yourself man :D :D :D
Subscribed :D
Very nice video. The stop-motion stuff is great! Seems you've used Drylin bearings right from the beginning, right? If so, what type did you use exactly? RJ4JP? Great work, keep going!
Thank you my friend! All will be revealed in the follow up episode
An error made with assembly of the printer: One can see the Z-xis metal support rods are extending far above the orange brackets on both sides. They should only be barely protruding from these top brackets. Have a look at Prusa's website and compare it. This could possibly be affecting stability or prints. I noticed when Tom assembled his printer in that epic 13.5 hour video, he also put the rod in to find it didn't go away the way down, but realized this was wrong and changed something slightly and the rod went all the way down.
awsome realy cool video
That was great to watch. I am just about to order mine on a 7 week delivery :( I noticed you ordered lots more print media. In you experience would you share what you ordered so I can also order the correct materials for general 3D printing? thanks in advance.
Im currently planning on working in making a enclosure for my mk2. should i?
Nice job guys, I am starting to make videos and that must have took a very long time to film, loved the effect with the moving boxes. I was wanting to get a 3d printer. Is this a good buy, I was also looking at the Wanhoa
For a near hassle free high performance and accurate printer for this kind of money its worth every cent/penny
Funniest unboxing I ever saw.
hey I also got the ctc and then afterwards the prusa i3 mk2
its a small world. LOL
3 black guys with an british accent!! Definetly gonna subscribe hahah. Thumbs up!
I really like the stop motion :)
thanks your welcome.
NERDVille you're*
suraj bhawal he takes the time to reply to all comments, its not a big deal that he made a mistake
Nikola Nikolov it was a joke.
suraj bhawal I don't know what it was. Just saying
That was unreal, how do you do that stuff? BTY HBpowerwall is about to send the 18650 Most Awesomist Battery Charging Thingy off to it's next destination. I think what you guys are doing is an epic adventure. I would love just to be able to touch it! :-)))
Very nice! Subbed.
I am watching cause I want to get a 3d before the end of the year.
do it! just DO IT! you don't know what your missing...
I also got a Prusa i3 MK2 and it is a great printer for the money.
I can not find an i3 MK2 I can find MK8 and some others
old time engineer you need to go to the prusa web site. shop.prusa3d.com
oh thanks did not think of that
cool unboxing man now can you just keep it going throughout the build....lol
LOL thanks man
VERY creative unboxing! Bravo! How did you get the boxes to hang at angles on the corners?
well you'll be shocked to learn that I held the boxes by hand and those frames where I was in the shot I photoshopped myself out of the frame using a previous frame. Hard, labourious and time consuming but the results speak for themselves... i hope
I hope I haven't ruined the magic of this footage lol
Two questions. What filament did you use for the dino skull and where did you get the dino skull model from? Thanks! Great video!
That's your bog standard boring white cheap PLA
I noticed that you didn't go with the kit linear bearings and looks like you went with the ingus drylin bearings. Was there any significant noise difference on those versus the kit bearings ?
Hey, Felix.
It's hard to say as I did not use the standard LM8UU bearings and take a dB reading then moved over to a the Drylin bearings. If anyone has a Prusa on their stock bearing and has an iphone 6s to measure the dB I can do the same my end maybe that would be comparable enough.
Although I feel the noise this machine produces is acceptable and there are other parts you can print from Thingiverse which does make a major impact on the noise levels.
Also, I would never use the quiet mode as the current sent to the stepper motors is much reduced and so it takes the smallest of interference for this nozzle it missed a step in the layer and throwing out the print. ALL of my failed prints were because of this and since then I have had zero miss stepped prints since changing the mode to normal mode.
A great video. Can we get more details on what you thought of the printer itself. Will you get some sides for it?
yes hopefully three more parts to come
in talks with Prusa regarding changes to their machine as well further calibration procedures which I hope to share with you guys. So far prints have been amazing, the best i've seen but there are some small gremlins.
I was so tempted to pick one of these up, was gutted when they put their prices up because of exchange rates :-(
Really? i didn't know that. I must have just beaten that price increase. Although still a worthy printer. How much did they increase it by?
It was a good £50 or £60 i'm sure. I have to say though i'm getting some good results with my CTC now and quite happy with it now i've gotten things dialed in a little.
Colin Hickey I've not given up on my CTC but was just tired of using lame slicer for it. Also I was finding myself tinkering more with that printer than actually getting work done.
Yeah that was my first lesson in that with something like the CTC it's rarely set and forget although i must say i've not had to level it for a while and using PLA i'm getting very reproducible results. I've went back to painters tape on the glass for now and fixed a major skipping issue which was wiring and it freezing/crashing which was a lack of grounding so much happier with it.
I was expecting to hear what you thought about the print quality.
Hi That's hopefully in part three which won't be disappointing.
I noticed the practical electronics for inventors book which I am considering purchasing. Are you happy to share your thouhgts on the book or perhaps do a review? Great videos please keep them rolling.
Its a BIG book but it starts from the very basic and end with the very advanced. For anyone like myself trying to get into elctronics it is a very good book to begin with but you would need some knowledge of basic principles of how electricity work.
Thanks, sounds like what I need.
entertaining and informative!
I realize this is a bit late, but you may want to consider coming visiting us over at the Prusa MK2 google hangout (hangouts.google.com/group/GTKX99ZQ76y4zVOu2) and checking out the build diagram we've developed: github.com/PrusaMK2Users/MK2_Tips_and_Tricks/blob/master/Prusa%20i3-MK2%20Dimensions.png
If you follow the build diagram, it is highly recommended you have a 8 inch (200mm) or larger calipers handy.
Thanks Aaron will most certainly look into this and the audience most definitely will appreciate this advice you have given. These comments are read by most and so it won't go unheard. You the best!
Also you realise that the Prusa i3 is a RepRap printer right? In that you can print all of the plastic parts yourself (legally and actually), and that all of the other bits are available from China, cut to length even, for incredibly cheap? With a lead time of about 3 weeks. Yes even the RAMPS and Arduino guts of it :D Oh and you can use an old PSU from a dead or obsolete computer to run the darn thing ^-^
how long did the build take?
It seems to be taking most people 6-10 hours on average.
If you check my channel out I streamed the whole process and between assembly and talking to people in chat it took approx 11-12 hours all together.
Its a relatively easy kit to assemble but there are a few parts that take a little time and care to do properly. Overall I'd highly recommend the Mk2.
Yep thats about right although we did it over two relaxed days. I'm seriously considering buying another one just cos it was that good of an experience for me.
You've printed "Triceratops Skull" from ordinary PLA? How is your experience to remove all the support material?
Hey Heiko
It actually came on the SD card with the Prusa. I've had a look on thingiverse and couldn't find one. Sorry I could not help on this occasion
Yes, i know where the model is from. I see only in timelapse that you removed some support with the cutter eg.
Was that easy or not?
Dude the HTA3D P3STEEL is better
hi
and what about you acrilic hood for ctc bizzer ? Any progress ?
can you contact me on prv ?
Hi will do sorry just been a little manic, I want to still make time for those changes and will do so soon.
ok
i'm waiting
it's a reprap mendal it's worth about £200 inparts it's all open source only has 3 bearing rails
and a very unflat build platform very cheap .... oh well that's what u get with capitalism..... open source is the future
