Really like the minimalism you put into both parts: simply beautiful 👍

Awesome! I remember being here when there was only 100 subscribers. I am always so excited to see each new video. You've done quite a lot!

You just blew my mind with having the extruder be the heatsink for the hotend, that's crazy! I hope to upgrade my V-Core with this setup soon.

Congratulations my friend! I have been looking forward to launch day so much, nearly here!

Looks like I'll be waiting for the final release of the Goliath, but that extruder is... Wow. I want that now.

Congratulations on the milestone cant wait to try it!

Amazing design that fixes so many of the problems that my extruders have. I am considering upgrading my printers with this extruder. Congrats

Hey Simon congratulations on the up coming realeases! and a big thank you for the vzbot printer design, I love mine it prints great. 🙂

Can't wait to test both of these! Great job Vez!

the extruder looks really, really nice. it is something that i wished for a long time. MirageC really did a good job finding out & proving the root issues.

will definitely get the HextrudORT, great work man!

Amazing. Beautiful work. At this point, I am looking forward to buying a full VzBot kit. Please take your time, and then take my money😊

Very nice to see progress with MirageC little extruder, I love that design. Been telling about that gear off centering problem for probably 2 years now lol. I even machined myself custom gears. It is crazy how they are stil not present on a market! I would personally do a smaller groove on it, as I made on my gears, this will help to center filament better. This groove on your sample looks a bit wide at least from a video perspective. It can be narrowed down to nearly 2mm in width actually. Mines are and they work great. Took me forever to machine them though lol.

im so sold on the vzbot and you never tried to sell it ! now i want the Goliath & Vz-HextrudORT !

Looking really good. Man I'm so proud of how far you've come, keep it up!!

This is VERY impressive, Vez. Well done!

Your work is amazing. Love it so much. Keep pushing 💪

I want both for my 330 😍 Awesome work Simon, Vz Group and Mellow. 👍

Congrats, Vez! You really earned it!

Giving me upgrade ideas. My wallet is hurting but I am smiling. Love both designs!

Very cool product .. im all in for this build. The 3d printing stuff evolves so quickly those days. Its good but i know that once i finished a printer the next big thing is already there at the door 😅

BTW, this metal extruder should be better in the light of what MirageC made a video about recently, especially the dimentional stability of idler's axis. I'm very keen to try myself!

impressive ! really good job

Congratulations for the hotend! Beast🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘😁🤘

i like this Combo nice machininng + design

Wow, innovative gears on the hextrudORT. That's real innovative man! Will mellow sell those separately possibly? I would be interested in a clockwork-2 BMG compatible replacement.

Great work brother 👍🏼

Awesome engineering!

I wonder if the Goliath would even benefit from a CHT or Bozzle Nozzle. I assume the filament will be already completely molten when it reaches the nozzle, therefore not utilizing the splitting of the filament :D A filament splitter at the beginning of the melting zone in the future maybe? Implemented into the heartbreak?

Those gears alone are simply brilliant, well done mate. It's amazing to see this all graduate from the home workshop to production. Will those fancy gears be available on their own? I can see the community going crazy retrofitting these into various extruders with bondtech gears.

Shaft is smaller in lenght over the bmg ..so to retrofit it it would need a design change on housing of those extruders. But yes. We will sell them apart when we can. Dificult situation now China with covid lock down stopping us from doing anything at the moment

j'ai trop trop hâte ! 🤘

I hope you also sell the twirly gears separately. I would love to rest them in other DIY extruders

That's so coooool~ Great job!! You must be proud of your self. Do you have any plans for standerd flow version of Goliath?

First i want to thank you Vez for the open source contributions and a great line of real parts and printers Amazing! you have shared with us all! second(team zest), I have some Veztyness to share.... so if tesla patented bolts, then we are screwed and so is every other car made after and is an infringement to teslas patent then....? (COMMON MAN.....) you dont get to patent bolts and nuts standoffs included nor do you get to steal the #7 from the calculator! put it back! they clearly dont have a real engineer or red seal anything this is obvious to me as they dont see it as a nut or bolt but yet a break thru in design..... but no one told them this happened over 200 years ago and standoffs are for spacing things or to keep heat/Electricity away from things connected to it! est. around the early 1800's, also put the periodic tables back it's not yours either my besty little friends by the way Startasys called they wanna speak to you! lmao i will also add if the hot end was no good this all would not be happening clearly, so congratulations you(vez) designed a better hot end 3 fold and they dont like it! this is the news we have really all been waiting for the rest will come out in the wash! their is a 10% patent rule to said copys this is well within the 10% difference and then is not a copy in anyway and you know it! stay vesty now!! It's winter in Canada now about and we still have to fight off the mosquitos.... Keep it Open baby! Fact : the zesty liquid fittings are 54 grams each set Just the fittings (with no barbs on a flexible hose set up) the engineer called he gonna be late! Again! Cheers to Simon and the team and thanks for hearing my views CHANTING: LSD LSD LSD !!! ,..... what waz that ...oh never mind it was just a mosquito, I got it! AS you WERE!...

Can't wait for the water-cooled vz-hextruder

Congrats on your "child" ;) Its pretty :) Looking forward to Vz hextruder.

Extruder sounds really cool

@Vez3d I had a question ❓ about the Goliath hotend, is it possible to add a chc heating core similar to the one on the rapidio onto the top or bottom of the Goliath for more heating power or would that cause over extrusion or leaking

congrats

Can you recoment a source fore heat ressistant tube to insulate the nichrom wire to give some safety for my printed toolhead?

I'm super close to deciding to try this. What other hotends would bolt right up to it? Dragon?

It would be awesome if you'd make a video explaining why you made your own hotend (similar to the way MirageC does). I've seen your prototype evolve over the last 6+ months but never fully understood why you went to the effort over your existing Magnum+ outside of the liquid cooling potential.

Hi Vez! Just ordered your hotend WCooled. My big respects to you as you push the FDM tech forward. Can't find anywhere info if BTT octopus pro will handle 100W hotend. Have you heard anything about it?

Will be a stealthburner mod to use it?

Would this also work for the Voron trident?

Hi Vez. Very cool hotend. I would love to try one out. Seems like a supervolcano on steroids. I am curious to know, how long is too long for a melt zone? At some point the additional friction from viscous flow will hurt flow rate more that it helps. Imagine a 1 mile long hotend. Someone that is good at math could probably calculate the point of negative returns, where extra length makes the flow rate go down. I would guesstimate that you are approaching it with this hotend, but we will have to wait for the test data to find out!
