- In this episode I make the frame and mechanics of a giant 3D printer from scratch, why? because I need to print something really big for an incoming project. It is a Prusa clone and I'm pretty happy how it is looking right now. I will do all the wiring and programming next and hopefully It'll be back on this channel soon.
The profiles I used on this episode were gifted to me by a friend and I really liked them, these can hold M4 nuts on the channels so here goes the free plug:

I’ve always envisioned making one 800x800mm, I drew up the plans in CAD and everything, and now I’m able to financially support the project, and this video reminded me and encouraged me, I’ll be ordering the parts soon, hopefully I can make it work as good as yours looks it works
How did the project go?
Would also love to know!
How much is it to build it?
me tooo, but I'm just school student so won't be able to support it financially though
@@varunahlawat9013 same I’m building a 10 ft rocket and submarine so a big printer would be useful
That looks alright Ivan, look forward in seeing how it serves you over time.
Hands down one of my favorite channels!
Your projects are always really awesome and your enthusiasm makes it that much more fun!!
Stunning work. I'm impressed. Love the 3D printed parts - very well designed. Already curious for the next episode.
I'm thousands of miles away from my 3D printer right now since I'm currently deployed in Kuwait, but your videos are making want to go back for bigger, better designs and prints! Love your work! So inspiring! Also your happiness is contagious! Love from Puerto Rico🇵🇷
I'd recommend adding a support across the middle of the bottom of the mirror. I feel like that much unsupported glass could cause the mirror to bend slightly and could result in an uneven surface. Love the design though!!!
You know this guy is a pro, when he can drill perfectly straight holes with a hand drill. Way too advanced for me lol.
Drill press
No, it means the opposite. An experienced amateur, but an amateur nonetheless.
Forget the drilling, the two bits I don't like are the tapping and filing. He needs to get the tap squarer to the hole to ensure the threads come out square to the end.
As for filing, he needs to lift on the back stroke to get a flatter surface
yeah you just cant drill square without press
I'm so proud of your, Ivan. Since I started watching you building a, for then "giant" 3D printer, that took you more than a month in your tiny compacted workbench. Now you're a grown maker and you do incredible things, but the quality is always been supreme. Thanks for your happiness and the love you put in your work and that you send us across the screen
That was really wholesome
This is so well documented and it’s like everything you need to make it is right in front of you, except I personally could not get those drilling skills overnight lol. Awesome content!
The best part about this design is that it can be scaled up or down fairly easily once it’s finished
You're a brilliant man and engineer, your videos only increase in quality and you inspire thousands, myself included. Thank you.
Your laugh at 9:32 says it all! Love this project and it is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for sharing!
For a bed this size it might make sense to move the gantry back and forth instead of the bed.
That mirror has to weigh a zillion pounds (that’s about half a zillion kilos)!
"Make sense" is an extremely ambiguous term. The mirror weighs a zillion pounds though, you nailed it.
exactly what I was thinking, that mirror + the weight of the print, is massive. tahts a lot of weight moving around especially on belts, would have been better having the mirror on z with a couple of ball screws, and nozzle on x and y. That's what I'm currently building but 400x400 although will take a while, buying a couple of things a month. Titan aqua is expensive. also cant decide what board at the moment, do love the duets interface over marlin, but they are expensive.
@@GlaucusBlue For board options Id look into the SKR v1.3 and potentially running klipper off a rpi with it
I also think he needs bigger stepper motors for the y carriage to achieve reasonable printing speed
it wont be fast thats for sure but if hes is printing with a 1 mm (or even more) thats not as bad
Sir id just like to tell u ur my absolute favorite person on earth
Dude, that is crazy even as a concept! Can't wait to see this beast in use
just found your channel and I'm already addicted! hoping to put this extra motivation into my own CNC and large scale printer projects!
WOAH! Now I must build that 19" 3D printer that had been bouncing around in my brain for over a year ... no more excuses! Excellent video as always. Thank you for sharing! Cheers! JM
Go go go!
Looking great!! Cant wait to see some massive parts!
You will! Thanks!
That is crazy, cant wait to see how accurate it prints out!!
Your original large printer build is what brought me to your channel. Seems nostalgic to see you build another one!
This is a dream? Ooohhh my.... I want one that in my room!!! Congrats for this job! Success and waiting for the next video to see this beauty melting plastic
Thanks!
Love this design and build as usuall cant wait to see the finished job
Thanks!
@@ivanmirandawastaken will there be a full instruction manual on how to cut the profiles and assemble the whole thing in the end?
this would be soo great ofcourse i would pay for it
KR
Dude. That’s awesome. Can’t wait to see it in action. And more interestingly what you make with it!
You are mad! In a great way. I can't wait to see that giant tank running. You've inspired me to build my own giant-scale printer. I'm going to your patron page just to enable this madness - it's awesome.
Awesome video. This printer is looking really sturdy even though it's so large. It'll be really useful for all your big projects.
I hope so yes. Thanks!
time to print the ultimate benchy!
Dude, you are insane :)
Making such an intricate instrument from scratch is very impressive
REALLY tempting to follow you and build one that size too especially since you made it look so easy
You never cease to amaze us Ivan. Keep it up.
You definitely need an E3D Supervolcano for this.
In the mail
FDM printer time is dependent on volume, which is third power of printed object height (=not really scalable). Resin printers on the other hand take time proportional only to object height itself (=lineary scalable)... The printing time of "Radon transform 3D printers" is (theoreticaly) not related to the object size at all (=very scalable). So i guess for very big prints we will need to change the technology (as long as we're not willing to go with huge nozzles, eg. like they did in concrete casting 3D printers)
@@harviecz large volume SLA machines have existed for quite a long time, I've personally had some entire gearbox casings SLA printed... The issue isn't scalability, the issue is material properties - SLA resins produce nice smooth surfaces but they're incredibly brittle and have terrible thermal properties. FDM carries a fairly huge advantage in the diverse range of materials that can be printed.
Ivan Miranda how do I get ahold of the fusion files for this?
Yes
I am definitely downloading the fusion files for this could come in handy someday
Jebidiah_Crumps where do you find the fusion files for this?
Following
Did you download them? The link seems broken at this point? Would you be willing to send me a copy?
@@CS-ec7gl oh yeah I did they have been sitting in my fusion account all this time somehow I never saw these comments asking for them how would you like them sent to you?
Ivan, you are insane...insanely awesome build!
This is awesome. Keep up the good work. Can't wait to see this monster print
Is this in preparation for a plane that you can fit in and fly. Great video. 🤣🤣
😂😂 thanks!
@@ivanmirandawastaken ok, once the tank is done, sounds like a new multi-year plane project is in order.
That looks amazing!!
Thanks!
You do so much in each video, truly impressive.
Great build so far, iv'e already printed off your x axis parts for one of my old ender 3's. Can't wait to see the finished product. Awesome job as usual..
You sir are a mad man!
As always: Huge and brilliant project, couldn't be done better by anyone other :) keep up the good work! greetings from austria
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and creativity.
I was searching something like this on CZcams for while now thank you a lot
You might want to put a cross-brace in the middle of your "mirror-carrier" so it wouldn't bow in the middle over time. Maybe also upgrade the belts to 9 or 12mm. The bed weights a lot probably and you've done well by using 2 motors to drive it. However, the belts (given they are the standard 6mm belts) will stretch a lot faster by slinging that weight :P So bigger belts can resist the higher torque, resulting in less slack over time, and better prints! Nice job however :D Already looking forward to the next 5 videos!
You can print a full size doghouse on a single run with this! Great engineering skills!
unfortunately that's quite poor engineering skills. Most important in engineering to know where to compromise. This heavy moving bed is very bad idea.
Crazy and amazing project!😀😄 Thanks for sharing.🙏
Beautiful job there ! Thank you for sharing ... 🇬🇧
im so going to make one of theses
Wait for me to finish it...
This printer will forever be known as the "Crazy Ivan" and nothing can sway me from this point of view.
Great job milling the rail with a router. It was a fantastic idea!
Wow....this, was, SO EPIC!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! My favorite video and am now subscribing thank you.
4:20 Great Idea! I'm going to try this at home :D
i tried 420 at my home and now i'm baked
not gonna lie, i cried a little when i saw you cut the threads :D
Wonderful, can not wait to see how it works.
¡Cómo siempre, excelente trabajo! Gracias.
everyday i turn on my computer praying the part 2 will be out
me and you both brother.
Came back today to look.
@@jake360flip same
Hey.
Can you write all the parts you used for this printer and the installation step by step? Love my friend 😘
Amazing build, good job as always
Glad to see you making a new printer again. I first became a subscriber with the old printer builds.
NICE!!! looks like a CR 10000 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍😍😍
Amazing video! Thanks for sharing! However, I wonder if, for such a huge and impressive printer like this one, wouldn't it be better to use a Core XY instead? Additionally, what kind of mirror glass are you using? Regular? Is the surface too brittle? I love your videos! Please keep it up! :)
now that is not only cool but showing your skills as a true builder/engineer! good for you.
clean design to build it in any size. thanks for sharing
This is an interesting build. I've been debating building my own large-form printer. I'm curious how far you can scale this without it causing warping/weight issues? Also, I've always wondered why nobody ever seems to use linear rails for these builds?
congratulation on building such a awesome printer! I have question - where are the measurements for installing Z frame i.e. how much space to from back/front of frame etc.? I am in middle of building one and need to understand measurement for this printer. waiting for reply, thanks :)
also do you happen to have the bill of materials (BOM)?
Wow! Well done man! 💪.. I love the design and I can't wait to part two 😍
Thanks!
@@ivanmirandawastaken my pleasure
I seen a lot of big printers made I still think yours is the best. I always wanted to print an adult size big wheel.
That better be some thick mirror, even glass is going to sage at that size when heated. Keeping this thing flat and level will be a nightmare.
Curious as to why you drilled through the extrusion instead of using T nuts and angle brackets for the frame.
That's what I was thinking and most likely why the bottom frame was flimsy and needed a bunch of extra material to strengthen it.
much better alignment and rigidity in a square frame that way
@@cda32 depends a lot on how they cut the profile
Using t-slot compatible brackets would have been much stronger and easier to square up and make adjustments. And probably would have only added a few dollars to the build.
T-nuts are a royal pain in the tookus..
Shout out to all who watched all 33 episodes of Ivan's first big 3D printer.
Ivan, It's amazing not only to watch you building these things but to see your skills improve over time.
Great job! I look forward to see the next video!
Thanks!
Mark1, Mark2, Mark3, Mark4, Mark Ruffalo
BTW. You've got a lot faster since the "big" 3d printer back then.
I may get there sometime...
Love the music, it's like Baby Driver building a 3d printer.
Nice one.
I like the built. Simple and effective. And cheap, for this size.
can't wait for next part
Awsome Ivan
It look great
If anybody actually needs a stupid-size-printer, it's Ivan Miranda!
if anybody needs stupid coments, its Andreas Klostermann ... I have 5 printers ENDER 3, they are for me as working horses with nonstop printing .. BUT for lot of my projects is not to enought bed with size 330x330 ... so I am bulding CUBE printers by myself ... now I am working on printer for printing BIG SCALE RC TANKS with 900x350x250mm dimensions ... in building progress is next printer with dual printing head that print 2x dimension in X axis in same time ... dimensions 2x 400x300x250mm ... one driver to X axis with 2 motors (1 LEFT / 1 RIGHT) no needs tension for belt on X axis ... one driver for 2 extruder motors ...
note: about HEATBED ... I am not using heatbeds on all my printers, heatbeds are DISABLED and wires are out from beds, I ma printing on cold borosilicate 4mm glass sheets only with spray adhezion tool (3DLak) and no problems printing everythink what I want/need ...
I am printing PLA, ASA275 and sometimes PETG ... no ABS, TPU etc. materials ... and for BIG bed sizes bigger than 330x330 is 0.6 nozzle right choice ... same layer with bigger nozzle = same result with shorter printing time about 20% ... with same quality
so thats is reaction to your comment ... who can build printer as DIY project at home, never build 220x220x220 ... for this size is ENDER 3 straight to buy from Aliexpress ...
Like, fav y subs.
Just wondering how I’ll print those red parts before having the 3D printer hahah ;)
Two questions: how much does it cost? and what about the software?
U can ask someone else with a printer to print them for you?
If you didn't do it until now tho...
Great video, Ivan! One of my all time favs!
Thanks!
incredible work, loved this video, thanks
I kind of want him to stream or time lapse a print on that thing.
Ivan, can you please talk about costs the next time?
it's really so smooth man, I like it
that was a clever use of the v-slot wheels for the bed movement
man if only you had access to a 3d metal printer, you would be a one man economic boom
Aren't you going to need some support unde rthe middle of the mirror? I woudl think due to the size of it, you're going to get some drooping.
amazing, this thing is put together so fast
Very nice job, Gave me ideas for my build, thank you
I can already feel the ghosting artifacts 😂
me … WOW y you need big printer?
you BIGEST 3d printed TANK ON CZcams :D
me ...thinking … next up full size drive able tank lol :D
Lol
I read the title and thought "Who needs such big printers"? Most people are better served with multiple smaller printers. Unless you want to build tanks from PLA...
Why say lot words when few do work
amazing project!!!
thanks for sharing!!!
nice one Ivan, glad your making something interesting !
Mh, I'm pretty sure it's for the gun turret of your tank, to print it in one piece. Am I right? ;)
You are all trying to get me to spill the beans. Mute, I'M MUTE!
“You call that a 3D printer?!”
*slaps frame of 3D printer
*”THIS is a 3D printer!”*
This is awesome! I need to build one of these!
You look ... "uncontrollable man". I don't see that! I see your work! AWESOME !!!! Clear, details enough and wow - I can make my own too after seeing your video, bor !
Great job!
On the printing bed leveling: with a larger print would the weight of the print cause it to go off level?
Absolutely. I think there's probably going to be an upgrade video or two down the line after that problem comes up. Probably the easiest option would be a diagonal brace to support the center of the bed and restrict sagging to a few cm from the corners that aren't over the brace bar.
William Shreckengost I thought he would have gone higher capacity but the sagging might be a minor issue. I was wondering if the spring loaded balance technique will get affected on this with the larger weight and center of gravity shift (as mentioned).
@MichaelKingsfordGray You're right, I was stuck on the bed, instead of the whole Y carriage. It's definitely beyond the means of the kind of springs that'd normally get that job, but lock nuts might be able to do the job well enough. (Though it's definitely a speed cap either way.) If not, it could be down to a fixed bed mount, which is going to take a hobbyist's fortune in measurement tools to set, and linear rails instead of V-rollers to take out some of the wobble potential. Not that I wasn't already convinced, but I'm seeing another good reason to go CoreXY at this scale.
Wait no, you need auto bed leveling on this big of a bed. Temperature variations can cause uneven bed surface. Please, please get an auto bed leveler
He'll probably add a capacitive probe later. Adding auto bed leveling is super easy but you gotta have your x carriage loaded up with all your gear first
I don't know, but it looks like he knows what's he doing.
Amazin project man! Eres un crack!! 💪💪
Omg gives me shivers love this !!!!!!!! So excited
How much will / has this project cost? It seems like it could be cheaper than a store bought printer of this size, right?
Should be, I guess so, yes
@@ivanmirandawastaken You don't actually know how much this printer cost you so far in euros? Or did you sacrifice your screwdriver for it (as you are using an actual hammer ;-P)?
My kit 3d printer was $2.500 .UK brand hopless still struggling to get it working .I shood of got u to bild me a 3d printer lol....this is lookn cool an strong frame so fare .bed wait an bed plate. Hope can hold the wait .luv to cee next vid adding all the electrics n printer head .is the printer head move down to print plate or does print plate move up n down to printer head ..
From other posts it seems like he’s not finished and parts are still coming so things can still change. Also 3d printers have a huge price range.
Riley Fenley yeah, seems like he’s being overly vague and short with his responses...
I'm good at doing what he shows at 5:01, but I don't think I could build a printer.
Bravo.
Bruh I'm crying I'm laughing so hard.
hhahahahhaha
It looks, awesome Ivan.
HOLLY MOLLY MAN THAT IS JUST FRAKING AWESOME!
