@@craigdvance I am talking about Elegoo's official firmware updates.

I am pretty much done with my Neptune 4 Max, it is so hit or miss. I just need something that is going to work. It's a means to an end for me, not a lifestyle, lol. Got the big glob of death on my hot end this weekend after 6 months of luck. But even after using a lot of the advice online I still don't get a clean first layer across the entire build plate. Looking at a replacement that I can do bigger stuff. I have a prusa MK3 which is BULLETPROOF, never had any issues over 5 years with it, but the neptune...... damn. I haven't done any of the rail replacement or hardware replacement just tweaks.

Thank you

My Anycubic just broke again. I think it worked for maybe 6 prints. 🤦‍♂️👎 one of the Elegoo’s are working again. Part for my other one just arrived. I’m always repairing these printers. 🤦‍♂️ I bought the Sovol SV08 thinking maybe they could replace my bedslingers but they’re even worse. 😡 It blows me away that they ship out printers that don’t even work properly. Zero product quality control.

Definitely agree on core xy is the way to go. But I have a customer that I think has at least a size 50 chest not sure how that measurement works. and I can’t decide on a 400mm plus size printer to buy. I have it down to three the Elegoo Neptune 4 max, Kobra 2 max and the creality CR M4 that I will put my sonic pad on for klipper.

I just printed a 50” chest piece on my Elegoo Neptune 4 Max and it turned out great. My Anycubic needs new x axis U wheels now for the hotend assembly. 🤦‍♂️ It’s always something with these two machines. Lol

@@OuterRimArmorer thanks for the input! I think I I’m sold on the Elegoo. You mentioned that you put mods on your neptunes What mods did you put on yours?

As i buyer of the N4max, i hope i know the answer (and not have seen the video yet)

If you could only buy one printer which it be ? Same question on filament? Ty

Trying to figure out which printer to get to print something like the Mandalorian Specialist Helmet, but I want to scale it up because my head is huge. For an idea of size, does that print on the Neptune 4 with room to spare? Would it print inside that Quidi MAX you mentioned, with scaling room? I just picked up my first printer, the Creality V3 SE, and I'm quickly learning a number of things, such as, it's too small...

Most Mandalorian helmets I’ve printed have fit on my Qidi X-Max 3. The big helmets prints like Starkiller’s helmets I have to print on the Elegoo Neptune 4 Max. It’s mainly used for full size chest armor but sometimes I print helmets on it too.

I refunded my N4 max after numerous bed issues.... open neptune didnt fix it and it had burned through pom wheels in two months of testing....

Hey, kind sir. I have a question. Have you had issues with PETG sticking to the nozzle, build-ing up and then depositing during print (I see it happens when I print solid infills). So, have you had issues like this and have you found a solution? Thank you!

No I haven’t tried printing with PETG yet.

What mods did you do for your Neptune 4 max? Trying to optimize mine. Currently waiting on Elegoo to send me another extruder.

@@OuterRimArmorer What are your thoughts on the z axis dual belt kit to replace the lead screws from TBSTron? I just did all the linear rail upgrades and was thinking about this as my next one.

Hola, tengo Anycubic Kobra 2 Max y me da muchos problemas porque no tiene para ajustar manualmente la cama y no me viene a nivel de serie... y varios problemas con que se atasca el extrusor y no saca filamento. Quería saber si neptune 4 max tiene esos problemas para cambiar mi anycubic. Pero me pone en internet que es mas lenta, que anycubic imprime sobre 300mm/s de serie y la neptune 4 max mas lenta, eso es cierto?? tu que tienes las dos, una va mas rápida que la otra?? A parte de si imprime mas lento, quería saber tu experiencia con las dos, según lo que has dicho cada una tiene sus problemas, pero si tuvieras una, cual seria la elegida ya que tu has podido probar las dos... O si hay alguna otra opción mas o menos a este precio cual seria, necesito una impresora de gran tamaño Gracias por tus videos:)

No I don’t think the Anycubic is faster than the Elegoo. I print around 200-250mms on both my machines though. Any faster and the print quality decreases. I find the Anycubic auto bed leveling feature much nicer than manually bed leveling. In fact I modified my Elegoo’s to be auto bed leveling like my Anycubic is. I only prefer my Elegoo’s over the Anycubic because I’ve added Linear rails to mine and it’s greatly improved the printer’s performance. Both printers get hotend clogs from the stupid little Bowden tube inside the hotend. You can find bimetal throat for the Anycubic though. Haven’t had much luck finding one for the Elegoo. I did replace my stock Bowden tubes with a Capricorn one that I found on Amazon. That seems to have helped so far. I have a couple 350x350 CoreXY printers in order. If they end up working better, they might replace my Elegoo’s and Anycubic.

Muchisimas gracias por la ayuda, me quedare con anycubic, me podria pasar el enlace de amazon para poder comprarlo y solucionarlo?? Yo el único problema que tengo con el autolevel es que la cama me viene de serie a desnivel y no esta recto, por los laterales esta mas alto y por la parte de en medio mas bajo, y las piezas según donde toquen esta demasiado bajo o alto y se me hace imposible nivelarla bien, al ver que eleggo tenia ruedas de nivelación pensé que era la solucion😄 Por lo demas estoy contenta con la impresora, solo que no nivela bien por la cama a desnivel de serie que viene y varios atascos que e tenido🤣

Yeah my first printer was in anycubic, i bought another 1 then got a q1 pro and will never go back, the A5m is awesome budget printer also.......... Qidi Q1 Pro SMALL LOL come on they arent 220 or even 180 build volume they r more mid size 250
