Glorious! Thanks for using that model! Best, JBR

First time comment, I loved your painting guide but struggled to find the link for the Gold recipe from Legendary (fcy fee - subtitles). Your Scottish accent confused me!! Only Joking (Sry I am an old fart with bad hearing) Kind regards Anwar

I can't believe that happened at the end! Squidmar will either be flattered or repulsed over what you did to that body pillow with his image on!

Woot! I am the 100th person to like this video! Which it's an amazing video and hope you do more awesome printing miniatures!

You're the first reviewer I've seen showing that you can have more than four test models on the build plate. That make the feature even better. I expect you (or someone else) could design a better build plate that is more standard. I've got a Saturn 4 Ultra myself and may take on that challenge. I'll try printing it with carbon fiber reinforced PET and if that's not strong enough I'll have some parts fabricated by PCB Way.

Watching this while changing a FEP. :D Awesome work and very inspiring. I've got an Anycubic X2. Waiting for the next big leap to jump on a new printer. The X2 is going pretty wel...... let me get back to you after changing the FEP... haha Thanks for the vid!

Hmmm already have an Elegoo saturn 8k and been thinking of buying a new printer for bigger projects. This seems to be the one i want.

The plate looks annoying to clean. Print faster, spend more time cleaning up 🤔

You need to buy a spray can of superglue activator. I use it for every model. It speeds up the process and makes the bond even stronger.

Just preorderdd the saturn 4 ultra. I've been trying to find out about the 2x speed but not 1 person has really timed it

An honest review, Elgoo should be happy, seriously. There's some great feedback there for the next iteration. Knight looks great too, I can't believe that happened at the end.

Very amazing!!!

I have owned a S4U for a few months now. I HALF agree about the clunky build plate unit, BUT once you set up an intelligent/optimal workflow with it you do not even notice or care about its more complex shapes than a typical build plate! I clean mine in equal time, and just a fraction less ease, than other 'normal build plate' printers I have. Firstly, DO NOT use the supplied bib - it is a waste of time and ADDS more cleaning/wasted time! Use a large baking tray to feed under the build plate, over the vat, to remove it all. You are going to use that tray for removal, of parts from the build plate and cleaning them etc anyway, so cleaning that tray was always going to be done anyway. No bib to clean 'extra', as well then.... Cleaning the top of the build plate, with a brush, over a tub of IPA or Metho, is no different than cleaning the top of any other build plate really.... thus the grand total effort is near dead equal to ANY other build plate! On another note - a Wash Station method of cleaning is a complete waste of time, and a poor result also!! Just use a 'large' tub, say 15litre, just half full, of IPA or metho, and either hand 'swish' parts, and/or brush them. It can all be done in a FRACTION of the time you run a wash station. Also, a wash station stirs up all the bottom dwelling gunge into a cesspool of crud to wash your items! It is exactly like you were going to take a bath yourself but did a crap in it FIRST...... lol. A tub and hand washing does NOT do that - it does not stir up prior bottom dwelling crud - thus the items come out cleaner just from that single wash process. No need for a second 'rinse' step either (but it can't hurt if you want to be "perfect"). All in all a wash station is a waste of MONEY - a notable amount of money. For pretty well ZERO gain, plus some added negatives! But your drying/curing station is a BIG POSITIVE to have and use. Though you can do it via a much cheaper set up (home made). One issue with both wash stations (even though they are useless!) and curing stations is the SIZE. You can make a home made HUGE station for a fraction of the cost of a bought one! And thus fit ALL items in, for drying and curing. As for a heater - well I have no need for one where I print. BUT I do have 'mini heaters' in most of the printers here. You can buy 'no name' mini heaters from AliExpress for about usd$25 and they work PERFECTLY FINE - as good as any manufacturers in built, or supplied heater. Mine take about 8 mins to get the enclosure to 30degC (from about an 18degC room temp). They are quite powerful and easily bring the temp up FAST. And you only need about 20degC or so for prints to be perfectly fine anyway, thus why I rarely even turn the heaters on anyway! I THOUGHT maybe running 30degC as a standard would be a good idea and outcome, but it was a zero benefit end result as it turns out - thus a 'waste' of that 8 minutes heating time anyway! Mind you I would start the heaters ahead of time anyway (but not setup to be on at all times the printer is powered on!), thus it was really a zero time waste for when I go to print. It was more a waste of ENERGY having them on, for the zero benefit in my typical room temperature case. (I have seen the Anycubic Mini Heater on sales for as low as usd$15 too!! That is a very good little heater also.) I get to use and see almost all printers (well a lot anyway) and NO OTHER comes close the the Saturn 4 Ultra as of the current models!! It is SUPER FAST, with no downsides to that. Basically just over twice the speed of all other 'fast' printers! It is a game changer - the next generation in the evolution of resin printing!!! I HIGHLY recommend it as the best resin printer to buy in 2024 (so far still) !!!! It also has ZERO issues or negatives!

Hey sam love your videos i just wanted to ask is there a place here in NI where i can dispose of my used methylated spirit? I called my local council and havent gotten a word back from them.

Hello mate, excellent print. Are you able to share with me your settings? I'm really struggling with printing anything big. Did you change any of the wait times? What was your exposure?

Wow ! I can't believe that happened at the end ! I know you are not a review chanel but I'm looking for a large 3D printer to upgrade from my 2020 Saturn, is the 8K S a good printer? Or should I go with the Jupiter SE?

How has your heating band held up? I am trying out a heat pad meant for reptile enclosures. It will be a funny setup but I'm interested to see if yours holds up with the weird tilts.

I've got this printer on preorder and it cant get hear quick enough

Print from SOLWYTE STUDIO

Mannn now I have no excuse but to paint my own Lancer proxy, and now I have to do it quickly 😂

They have a heater being released at the same time as I’ve got one on pre order

For those of us that don't live in frozen hell-scapes the lack of a heater isn't a thing. Also I've gotten very little resin between the plate and base. It will alert you if you don't have enough resin so maybe don't overfill the tank? Just my thoughts. That knight looks amazing!

Do you know if it it's a decent idea to have the saturn 4 ultra on my bedroom if I use a fume extractor like yours + I have the printer inside a still air glove box?. I would like the toxicity to be close to 0% as I would be spending a lot of time in the bedroom My idea is to have everything on the Glove Box (Printer + cure/wash station + Tools)

I've been looking all over for the castigator and just can't find it

Good model 😀😀😀 Well done

3d printed mechs knees are normally much weaker then glue, being able to fuse the parts together is much better. I have never had a problem with John’s files they all work amazing for me and my stock mono 2 settings. I’m pretty happy that the only issue with his files is something most files do. I really recommend supporting him even if it’s just downloading his free files, he certainly deserves it and is one my inspirations for getting into sculpting and printing models.

I mean, painting would be the difficult part of the equation. Printing a knight on a Saturn 4 Ultra? Handful of hours, no problem

You can literally buy a heater as an addon to the printer. So those who dont need it save money. Build plate is messy, but with a flex plate or just some discipline in your cleaning process, it's easy to avoid. Rubbish critique points.

I love print and paint videos like this, also a good way to find cool models 😉

The build plate design sucks (although the release is nice), the AI camera is pointless as you can only see one side of your print, I could care less about a heater but I know that matters to a lot of people.…I’ll take the Saturn Ultra 3 over the 4 any day.

I just brought a saturn 4 ultra and so far the experience has been terrible and i haven't even received it yet. Seems like this weird build plate has everyone annoyed... like does it really need to be that bulky...im 6'6 with huge hands and im worried hiw im going to clean between it.

The first person to address this plate issue. Thanks for that. First time I saw this printer I thought, oh my god, what pain in the a.. it will be to clean this plate. Yet no reviewer mentioned it. Everyone will waste a roll of tissue paper just to clean the gap. Maybe they can make it optional for people who want autoleveling.

babe, wake up, Arch Magos Sam just posted.

Thanks for a great and honest review. Fun video.🎉

My experience with printer has been a massive amount of failures. After messing with times for resins, and running slow and fast it fails more times than not. It has really been a waste of money.

Well that was strange. I have never seen a printer with a vat that moves instead of the build plate. It probably does have some advantages over the normal design although I don't know what those advantages are. Maybe that's how it can print so fast?

Always enjoy a Knight video. Always perma jelly of you 3D printer owners XD

dat ending

put something underneath the printer to tilt it before removing the bed ...et voila autocleaning of the plate

1:25 Whu.. waht? What the hell? The VAT moves up and down? What the heck am I looking at here?

Print time is slower compared to Saturn 3. I have yet to find settings in the 4 that can match the use of rapid resin on the 3

Banging tunes, candid opinions and experiences, and solid views! Nicely done.

That's a really cool proxy

what about us that don't need a heater why should i have to foot another 100 dollars when there are things like the band if you need it?

Do you think the seperate heater will still reasonably work if the lid / hinge is taken off?

A few tips to help you out- 1- Boil some water, dip your parts with the supports attached briefly into the water, the supports will fall off easy and leave far less supports marks. 2- Buy Super Glue kicker, instantly activates the glue, and no mess like baking soda.

I love knights so much!!!! More please 😊

I really can not believe what happened at the end!! 😮😮😮😮 😅😅😅😅

I can't believe that happened at the end! Great job brother!

I can't believe that happened at the end

Would love to know how to make that black and brown oil wash

Im hoping with the Mercury XS station ill be able to just wash the whole print AND build plate at the same time

Can you? Yes. Should you? Yes. And so many other tabletop desires.

I’ve watched all your videos and there is no way that happened at the end! Ninjon and Squidmar cameo to let you body paint them as a Warhammer model is just obscene.

Well done! That's a great build

I cant believe that happened either!!!

I did it on the mars 3 , So the Ultra 4 should eat it up

Love the videos! Keep them coming!

I agree with you on the "auto leveling"

Drops to many features for me really sad

Can somebody pls help me im now a RU-vid member where do i get the acces to the discord?

I can't believe that happened at the end!

i cannot believe that happened at the end!

I can't believe that happened at the end.

What happened at the end? 😂

yeah, I dont' like the plate neither

yes, fermentation belt to keep resin warm! been using one for over a year and made me able to print over the new england winter

*eleego will remember that*

Awesome work what’s the link for the band I’d love to try it too

I was looking at this printer but in the end went with the M7 for all the reasons you pointed out. M7 is so fast it blew my mind. defiantly made the right choice.

I absolutely can’t believe that happened in the end

The Saturn 4 ultra actually does EIGHT calibrations tests at once. You have to click the tab but there is an option for 8 settings at once

cool

yay

I can't believe that happened at the end!

I can't believe that happened in the end!

im currently overthinking to also start a yt channel, you are my 100% idol in this case. cause of you i got printers, cause of you i started a small business and somehow i feel like i would like to put my own journey on camera. thank you.

Crazy Twist at the end, love it

I'm a big fan of this creator. He has a whole range of knight-sized titans, many of them inspired by mecha from other IPs such as Robotech/Macross or Gundam, but heavily reimagined to make them fit perfectly alongside other gridark mecha. Unfortunately his Patron is currently on hiatus, but hopefully one day he'll return to doing mechs again.

I can't believe that happened at the end! That badger came out of nowhere!

Get a flex plate and your messy problems are solved. You can just remove the flex plate from the original when the print is done. You never need to take off the original plate.

I think your wrong about including the heater. Not everyone needs it. Brings down the cost for consumers. Also the heater they are selling blows the heat in the wrong direction.
