I'm so sad that Elegoo dropped the DLP variant for the Mars 5. Love my mars 4 dlp, but I'd love it more with the mars 5 enclosure and tilting vat.

I was waiting to see if you mentioned how the top came off as that was one of your comments on other printers

Ah, it doesn't auto level, it auto-zeros the build plate. It comes pre-leveled from the factory.

Probably should have figured that the light source would need a heatsink. If the price is right, I might have to look into one of these, as I'd be more comfortable with leaving it running than I am my FDM printer.

Resin printing technology seems to have leapt ahead even faster than FDM printing technology. My Phrozen Sonic Mini 4K is only two years old, sold for the exact same price, and is frankly pretty far behind in terms of features. It's a nice printer, it's done well for me and I do so relatively little resin printing that I don't feel an urge to upgrade, but man...by the time I'm ready to sell the Sonic on eBay and buy a new resin printer, we'll probably have heated vats and maybe even fancier features (like you see from HeyGears or Formlabs) for a similar price point. It'll be interesting to see how this fares against your UniFormation printer when the temperatures start dropping. Especially if you can find a reasonably-priced aftermarket bed heater for the Mars 5 Ultra.

anything with a lot of surface area would cause audible pops when the film released between each layer. you could feel it distinctly if you were touching the machine. caused all kinds of distortion. as in, couldn't print functional gears or sprockets. anything light-weight and airy would be fine. wonder if this makes a difference.

Paul, you're a fan of the Adeptus Sororitas, then? :) I like the Adeptus Mechanicus, myself.

My first question for any 3D printer: what slicers support it? And does at least one of those slicers have first order support for my operating system of choice, linux?

Mars has always been, in my opinion, the best bang-for-buck you can get. I loved my Mars 2 Ultra (for jewelry making) and really haven’t looked I buying a new one… until now.

That's pretty slick. Hopefully it stays trouble free as it gets some use.

It's wild that we can get that resolution and speed (in this and other printers) for $300. It's well smaller than the feature size captured by petrobond. 😂

Made an aluminium bronze D20 last week! Things are going well so far

I've always been too scared to take the plunge into resin, but I have also always wanted to get into casting (and already have a forge)... insert meme of guy pressing 2 buttons here.

I know you said you don't do a lot of 3d printer reviews. You should reconsider that. This is one of the best 3d printer reviews I've ever seen. Great explanations and points made.

It seems to impress most who have used it. But down here in Oz I am having cold issues this winter with my Anycubic Mono 2. Heated enclosure will be needed. Faster is better when iterating fine tolerance engineering prints for motorised models.

Im on the other hand. I dont want to get zinc in my lead as im a bullet caster 🤣

Poor teenager faces.

Looks kinda cool with the low polygon count.

Wow!

Ah, we have the same wife I see. Church needs 18 1m diameter flowers: " my husband can make those" Theater school needs 3 sets of mouse ears: "I'll ask my husband, he can make those." Daughter wants a new dress. "Ask your father, he will make one." Etc,etc,etc.

If we win regionals, then it's straight on to sectionals, then semis, then semi-regionals, then regional semis, then NATIONAL LOWER ZONE SEMIS!

Awesome project Paul! I’m seriously impressed!

I did not realize it was possible for you to to work this fast, also dear lord that video was a trip and Im not even on drugs

You're a wizard Paul. I hope they appreciate your work.

Omg just watching this stressed me out! You get the best dad of the year award!

You can probably make a mold insert using a wax printer.

When our society fails, and we are dug up in 1,000's of years, they are going to be very confused.

"So, I chopped up the body in twenty pieces..." What am I watching?!

To answer your question: yes. Props get broken all the time. On "Bullitt" they had a 24h mechanic shop to keep the cars (there were several of each) going while they filmed the chase scene. Which took 3 weeks. Are you enjoying being a 24h car rebuilder? With no backup vehicle?

You know that I ain't braggin' its a real ..... wagon! Go Go Go

You better not have downloaded that design, mister! "You wouldn't pirate a car." 🤣 Edit: NONE of your prints failed? That's... go get you a lottery ticket. I'm stunned. Edit 2: "Is this how movie props are, actors keep breaking them?" Yes. Yes, it is. Generally, if it's at all avoidable, there's never just one of any prop made due to damage being anticipated.

A car for kids, yet you show your boss driving it. I have so many stereotype jokes percolating in the back of my mind.

I'm sensing that future you is in deep doo!

Such dramatic tension!😬 Nicely done, good luck at nationals!!!

can we replace pressure cooker by a pot glass?

Adam Savage once said that actors have crazy strength when it comes to handling props... if you think it's strong enough, it isn't

I think this is the favorite of mine amongst all the projects you have shown on RUclips. GG!

They typically make multiple props because they get broken, or stolen. Or lost..

Impressive. And I hope it earned you many wife points. The steering wheel through the windshield is forgivable...Like Captain Crunch's eyebrows being on his hat. lol

Cool! I wonder if it would've been faster to make it out of sheetmetal.

I've watched many of Adam Savage's vids and he's mentioned several times actors are amazingly hard on props.

Well done dad!

A life lesson from an old fart....NEVER volunteer for anything EVER! It will always come back to haunt you.

probably be a good idea to make a frame under the body from say central heating tube , the stuff is zinc coated so make sure you etch that off before welding , ( they use toiletcleaner for that ) the mustard yellow smoke from the coating burning off is verry toxic would and give you a splitting headacke , even then i would weld it outside ruclips.net/video/OqsHTey95uQ/видео.html central heating pipe is pretty eazy to bend intoo shape with a hand tubing bender to fit thightly under the body and inside the window frame and the bumpers so even if the thing cracks it should hold together not realy rigit as in you can stand on it but strong enough to prevent the thing from caving in , can even pull/push it back out a few times might be able to use pipe intoo pipe to fit the body over the old hotwheels frame once you epoxied the main frame to the underside of the body , that allows you to transport the prop intoo two pieces so it doesnt snap from being carried around and be light enough to lift to late to order hubcaps i think but you probably be able to 3d print sumting tht fits in place of the original covers (dont realy see the point though the current ones look fine )

Instead of straight Bondo try mixing it with resin 50/50. People refer to it as Rondo. It is much easier to spread.

Maybe next time, cast it out of bronze? would've held up better. And think of the muscle you'd have built carrying that up a escalator...

Hey Paul do you have an affiliate link for the 3D scanner you used?

Amazing project and great prop dad shirt... but I'm sad it wasn't "PROP POP". 😅

I was expecting at least 1 failure - No failures at all in that many hours is pretty darn good though not unheard of good, and I have no doubt it will have a print failure at some point as there are just too many points of failure for a FDM machine, and even when the machine is absolutely perfect imperfect filament can't always be overcome.
