Lucian has been working hard on sourcing parts for the Index Pick and Place, getting in samples and negotiating with vendors! In this one, I build up three PnPs to use for motherboard assembly, and Lucian gets into how he works his magic and finds suppliers for all the items in the machine.

Lucian needs to start a RU-vid channel where he explains all the tips and tricks for manufacturing a product. I find it very difficult to find resources on this topic that make sense and are relevant. Awesome video though. Do you plan on eventually finding someone to build these at scale or do you plan to do all the packaging yourself?

Yeah, once you start ramping, having someone dedicated to parts sourcing and management is key - This is something I really struggle with still being a one man band.

What Lucian says about being available in their timezone and being easy to communicate to is SO important in my experience. As a small player, you're often talking to fairly junior sales people at the larger vendors, and they never have people go out of their way to convenience them. They do notice, and they do give you special treatment as a result - going as far as putting their neck on the line with their boss in some cases. If it wasn't for doing that (as exhausting as it can be), we could've never crossed the mid-scale manufacturing chasm.

Just lived through this to your next stage a few months ago. I'm between the 100 - 2000 shipped unit quantity. So some unsolicited learnings. On Re-order or larger orders you can start getting a few new pain points. QA can drop from samples. Had a run of 1000 pcs and logo's were all askew by 2 degrees but samples were perfect. Import tariffs (not Tax, but also that). How things get defined when they ship to you can be very important. The higher value your order is the more scrutiny it'll get and the more likely multipiece shipments will not arrive at the same time. Having the plate for sale likely has you learning a lot about shipping, but if you have a big draw on launch day things can get rough. While not a patreon, I'd launch to them first with a 2 week buffer when it comes time because this will serve as your lower volume (maybe?) learning point on how the shipping packaging process goes.

If you want to try salvaging your Creality printers.... I had similar experiences with my Creality CR-10S Pro - months of jamming, failed prints, - the complete opposite of my Prusa Mk2, which just keeps on working. The game changer for me was when I got tired of CR-10S Pro failed prints and decided to replace the stock extruder and hot end assembly with a direct drive BMG extruder and Mosquito hot end. I have never been so impressed with a piece of aftermarket equipment - the Mosquito/BMG combo has turned my CR-10S Pro into an absolute production monster. IIRC, in the 8 months since I have been operating it with the new extruder/hot end, I have had exactly two failed prints, and one of those was due to using a reel of filament that contained approximately as much water as Lake Huron. And my average print quality has increased substantially as a nice side effect. I have no connection to BMG or Slice Engineering - I am just a very impressed and happy customer..

I bought a prusa i3 Mk3 when it was available for preorder and despite the thousands of hours of printing over the past 4-5 years I think I have only had like 6-7 prints fail on me. Prusas are great if you want a machine that just works. Enders are more for if you are unsure about buying a 3d printer and are willing to play around with it at least a little bit.

Get glass beds, and ill send you my Ender3 print settings for PrusaSlicer, its probably a speed issue(?). Once the bed is levelled, I don't need to do anything to my ender 3s, ever. Ill just send prints down to my basement from Octoprint and go pick them up when they finish. Once they're setup, they will just keep making parts just like the prusa. Only thing I have to do is wipe the glass beds when they get completely covered in dust because of the work I'm doing in my basement, or after a bunch of prints Ill use a degreaser on the glass bed because there is some oil or something that comes off of the PLA that can mess with the adhesion.

I realize this is literally a year out of date, but there are so many more options now for more tooly 3d printers. Like the new Bambulab X1 that is a corexy, does auto calibration on everything (including things like input shaper) and prints super fast (like actually, not the fake fast speeds many vendors post). It was a kickstarter but will be on sale soon. Theres of course also the Prusa XL but that's a couple years out. Then, there are a bunch of cheap printers which have really improved the experience with nozzle based bed level probing and less terribly designed and qa parts like CR6s.

Thank you so much for showing your Ender 3s. I noticed that you had the power supplies mounted on the outside back rail and this inspired me. I have an Ender 5 Plus and it has been shutting off on large prints. I suspected the power supply. So I stupidly ordered a 450W PS without checking the size requirements. Today I opened the package intent on installing the new PS only to see that it did not fit. I was resigned to the fact that I would have to find another small PS that fit. BUT!! I saw your video. With some M3 screws, T-Nuts, some rewiring, and Bobs your uncle I am back in business with a good quality MeanWell PS. Thank you!!

I have issues sometimes on my ender CR-6 max. It's a good printer, only issue is a long bowden tube that needs a long retract setting. The issue complicates because for parts with lots of retracts, I believe it heat-shares upwards over the heat break. The filament driver is nastiness to service too, making it hard basket for drive-dog checks.

My Personal experience with the Ender 3.. I had so many issues but now I'm at a state where I power it up (Even after 5 months unused) clean the glass bed and it prints Changing the Extruder to the metal(red) CR10 solved the problem with not enough strength and also solved clogging?.. Changing the springs to the yellow springs fixed bed being unlevel after some times Then I also changed the fittings, specially the one at the extruder. Also did many other mods but these few mods surely did the biggest differences! I really agree that Ender 3 is "overrated" because you need to do many upgrades and tweaking to get it up running.

Careful with the Prusa Mini! If you twist the X-axis arm, the printer will print a rhombus instead of a perfectly squared rectangle!! I am a mechanical engineer.. tested 2 of these minis and ended up returning them! Super easy to get the x axis out of alignment because there is one wimpy 3d-printed part holding 2 smooth Rods in a cantilever. I can forward you some of the emails I sent the prusa team. They only contain part of the problem and no offered solutions. I usual run out of energy working the 9-5, so all I can offer now is caution ⚠️ on the minis.

Experienced a few problems with the cr10s pro v2 . Clogging, prints not sticking, gear extruder jamming on the filament and the bl touch getting stuck. It does require some time tinkering. Prusa prrinters seem to be better quality wise even though I never owned one yet. Now contemplating on a direct drive with an all metal hotend to have better prints and alss prevent the PTFE tube walls thinning at the hotend over time causing clogs. Nic Wilson’s creality fb page has some pre-compiled software for ender 3’s and other machines if you want improved functionality.

Everyone goes on and on about the Prusa, but I've had to resolder the power cable to the bed heater, reprint hotend parts because a failed print encapsulated the hot end, and had the nozzle drive itself into the bed because the Prusa at $800 doesn't have a Z limit switch. They're good machines, but they can require maintenance too.

My 3D printing farm is entirely based on Flashforge Guider 2's. They are more expensive but they come out of the box get levelled ones and print for houres and houres without any problems and failures. All parts printed on my machines are ABS and I have about 0.5% failed prints. The first Flashforge I've bought is 10 months old and made so far 1240 hours of printing. Bed levelling has been done once so far... No blocked nozzles or other shitty maintenance was necessary... No broken parts... I call it my easy bake oven. It is a workhorse perfect for micro-manufacturing. It is the first 3D printer I worked with which is a tool and not a hobby.

Would 100% go for a kickstarter (or similar) of these with a kickstarter you can actually see the quantity of people that want to buy it and order the correct quantity without having to try guess how much stock to buy. And you give yourself time to source and pack out a kit without worrying about delivery time as much. Are you making the kit without the 3d printed parts so buyers can print them at home or are you going for an all in one shabang with everything included?

I run a bit of a print farm, doing >1000 parts per month usually. My go-to for a cheap yet reliable machine is the Artillery Sidewinder. A bit cheaper and bigger than the Prusa Mini, and I'd say about just as reliable as the genuine Prusas I've owned.

would be cool if you were incorporated and willing to sell shares for funding. I'd buy some.

Build a Voron it's well worth it to put in the effort and it would be a fun livestream. Edit: you could also do a cooperation with Thomas Sanladerer with his queue system then.

You were engineering on the fly. It always takes longer when you do that. Engineering isn't just limited to this part should be aluminum and be that long. Most of the engineers at GM don't do the cars they work on what it takes to build the cars. Assembly order, how long each step takes, what can be done in parallel etc.

Use a Bimetal Heatbreak for the Ender 3 it is the best upgrade you can get because even a PTFE tube will melt after time

Honestly ditch the Ender 3’s for print farm duty. Get more Prusa machines or other machine that won’t be a project. Also, the less Chinese suppliers you have the better.

open source hardware and "kits" usually don't work well together. Also, a 100% Ali sourcing is an absolute mistake
