I don't like them for auto work with oil/grease, but for other things they are pretty good. I'm still looking for a screwdriver with a handle I really like. Maybe I'll try Wera!
Just remember, you have to pay a $25/year membership fee to have the privilege to "save" any of this money he is talking about, by buying at this discount tool store.
If this was shot unrehearsed it would have been interesting to see the look on his face if by chance he put in the extension in the way it sides thru the head and makes a T-handle.
Don’t forget that if you line up the dot on the ratchet and the dashes on the exterior you can slide the extension halfway through and create a “T” handle
yessir. blown component on that board. never a good sound to hear. brown out fluctuation or a surge. Should always be ready for storms w high dollar electronics. Main power,brakers or unplugging /isolation from grid is always the best precaution.
FieldVolt is primarily designed to run low power geophysical instruments in harsh environments for days to years where lithium batteries just don't work (like in Antarctica, Alaska, etc). Power tool batteries are great and we love them for other applications though!
@@leemangeophysical I’ll get a couple next time I go to Antarctica 🇦🇶. Have you tested makita batteries there? Also at the rate they say global warming is going makita will work everywhere within six months.
Good morning from the Great State of Texas. You and I carry almost the same tools. I although carry my tools in a canvas military type bag. I would prefer a pouch but my bag was only 5 dollars and has lasted for over 7 years now. Have a good day and be safe.
Howdy from just a bit further north! I bet your bag doesn't spill. The pouch will spill which isn't great, but mostly it hangs on the headrest post of my passenger seat, so not a big problem.
I always love watching tool bag videos. You always find something you didn't know existed. I'll have to pick up one of those folding putty knives! Tempted by the small Knipex pliers too. I'd bought one of their parallel joint pliers and found I don't use it as much as I thought I would but when you need it, it's awesome. Still, do I really need an excuse to try another new tool? Into the cart with it...
That putty knife has saved the bottoms of so many pockets! Soon we'll do a video of the "big" tool bag and/or service truck load out. They've got a lot more goodies too. Hat tip to @MORGANSMaintenance which is where we learned about that putty knife.
Unfortunately we have not been able to achieve adequate performance with below null masses. With some more R&D time the engineering team is confident that anti-matter operation is possible. Sales has already sold a few of that model in fact.
So glad you managed to crommulate the side-fumbling, the retro-encabulator was a good start but its trunnions were never perfected. How did you manage surge torque from the phase inverted neutron polarity containment inducer? You should check the ep from a year ago when Lehto's Law did a close review of the case law on these, especially if you included any turbo-encabulator style modulation of the hydromatic overdrive system. Thanks for the update on such great tech!
We're always pushing the boundaries. While toque management is a proprietary process, the general principle has to do with the co-commutation of the anti-dingleon coupler and the reactive hammonometer. This is done in such a way that we can always be sure the cohesion of the two encompassing warp fields.
We believe that it can actually detect infra-infrasound. That's the infrasound created by sensors measuring infrasound. This is a property specifically of the configuration of the waneshaft and the careful transdermal alignment technique with the semi-boloid slots in the stator.
For all the people recommending other printers - this is an IDEX printer and there are not many others with that capability in the consumer end of the market. Yes the Bambu Lab X1 is great (I have one) but while the AMS is a great convenience for managing multiple materials, it is very wasteful and adds a ton of time for multi-material prints, something an IDEX printer excels at.
Hi, I’m looking for my first 3d printer. What is your advice for a beginner? On one hand I think this one is to expensive but on the other hand I would really hate it if I find out that I really mis some functionality on the cheaper models. Thanks in advance
As a beginner you might like a more inexpensive kit to assemble and really understand 3D printers. If you just want a printer that works, the Flashforge or Prusa lines are great. If you want a middle ground the monoprice printers are ready to go, but will need some tinkering for a more moderate price. Thanks for watching!
Nice printer, my 87 year old stepfather got this since a week, printjobs looking good sofar, befor he had a ultimaker 3 and has 2 creality printers also.
You should check out a bambu x1, puts all these "new" machines to shame. That flashforge is an absolute waste of money, you could get two x1 carbons for the same price. it's clear that not much research has done, this is not the machine to get in the $4000 price point.
FlashForge is indeed a very nice unit But why not the Bamboo Lab X1 Carbon for pretty much the same price point ? I feel like Clark Griswold waiting for his Christmas bonus because there's a 99.9% probability that I'll be adding an X1 to my farm right around Christmas A fat bonus would help but I'm getting one regardless unless they run into a supply issue or an asteroid hits the planet. Best bang for your buck bar none is the Bamboo Lab lineup of printers
I had two Flashforge Printers, a Guider II and Creator 3 Pro. The Guider faulted with a week and failed to print. The Creator was built like a tank, but it was consistently inconsistent. It loved to drive it nozzles into the bed. The same sliced G-Code was consistently inconsistent. It was a terrible experience dealing with their support. It looked great on paper but didn’t perform as advertised. After that experience, I built an E3D Toolchanger that can have up to four materials loaded with different nozzles. It was a steep learning curve but it I print PC or ASA with TPE embedded within the print. I do like the flexibility of multi-material printing It’s a flexible machine, but not a first printer as setup and tuning is very time-consuming. I recently got a BambuLab Carbon X1 - wow - fast and perfect first layers. This was the main thing the Flashforge could not do. It’s to bad, it looked great, but as I mentioned above, not consistent and I couldn’t call it an industrial printer. Hopefully, you have a much better experience with your printer.
Hey Terry - we'll keep you posted on the printer's performance. So far we've found a few annoying things, but have been printing about 20 hours/day for nearly 2 weeks with *mostly* success. Stay tuned!
I have a kit Taz (taz4) as well. Its definitely been a workhorse for the past 9 years. Have been thinking about upgrading bc I'm getting jealous of the quality I see in some of the prints now days and I just don't have time to constantly tinker with it anymore. Definitely interested!
If you didn't have the IDEX or build volume requirements I'd likely look in a different direction, but with those requirements I'm pretty happy so far. Our TAZ was and is a very solid printer. We were sad when they were bought out.
Thanks for this review. I don't know so much about Flash forge... But it seems good. Did you look in to the qidi machines also? Qidi machines are really good but it's mostly for their costumer support that makes the difference for me. I think it's good you didn't buy a creality machine. Problem is that they don't aim for a quality market as other brand dose. My suggestion is to stay away from that brand... they make some good printers but still they release bad printers that should not enter the market
One of our local collaborators has a Qidi and likes it, but we didn't quite get a feature set we wanted. From what they have said though, it sounds like a very solid machine with good capability.
@@leemangeophysical OK! Yeah it is. It's very reliable... almost no babysitting. Just the first layers is important then I can leave the printer. The only thing that was irritating me with this machine was the high temp extruder. But I manage to fixed that so now I can print the most filaments with the high temp extruder. I don't like to switch extruder for different jobs 😅
I have Creator 3 V2 which is the predecessor to your machine, and had a lot of issues and three failed print heads! I saw Creator 3 Pro which looks great on paper but then heard from a few people who have it and they claim it is the worst printer that they won. Hope your one works out. Please let us know if you have any issues with it.
Sorry to hear about the print heads! We're hoping this is a good machine too, but we will post a full review video after we've used it for a few months and printed a variety of materials. Thanks for watching!
Heard/experienced similar in the various places where I've seen this brand in use. Never bought one for myself, because why pay a literal order of magnitude more money for a machine that simply does not print 10x faster, or with 10x higher resolution, or with 10x more reliability to match its cost. We're at a weird point in the 3D printing world now where brands like this can pump out exotic, "high end" / "prosumer" machines and charge 10x more for them, implying they're equivalent to buying 10 of a more reasonable printer with all the same features, and yet they still have bizarrely high failure rates with essential things such as toolheads, rails, and mainboards/PSUs....
We bought a Creator Pro 3 from FlashForge and have been learning the ropes of a new 3D printer and how the technology has changed in the past 10 years. The capabilities are really incredible for the price point. Stay tuned for a more in depth review after we have a chance to print on the machine for a few months of production!
That is a really interesting machine. We didn't really need the many color capability, but it is amazing for more artistic pieces. The speed is also incredible!
@@leemangeophysical its really good for speed. you can basically triple the throuput of most standard machines while maintaining quality. it's also extremely easy to use, no z offset, no flow adjustment, no PA calibration, its all automatic with the lidar and load cells.
