Oh man that sucks but at the same time thats awesome that the feature actually worked properly!

Puncturing an FEP can happen to anyone and almost happened to me before. Good to not gloss over it, good preview!

My advice to anyone buying a resin printer is also buy an extra vat and extra films if they don't come with it. You will want multiples of those on hand sooner or later, whether for convenience or because you made some little slip up, forgot about the whole exposure to light thing and now your life is scraping meticulously, or etc. It's not like the machine is all broken, you just gotta have some of these things on hand if you don't want an unplanned pause in production.

Impressive size, and the price point is awesome! It might be time to get my first resin printer

Thank you for posting and admitting that you broke it. Now I can prove to my wife that I'm not the only goofball around. :)

Another amazing video. Thanks again Loyal!

I like it and it look very Tron style.

I dont believe it was the AI camera that detected the previously fallen support. It was most likely the load sensor in the arm holding the plate that detected resistance coming down and thus stopped the print.

Very sleek, beautiful machine. Glad to see that camera and detection system. I've had a puncture and wish I had this to know about it. Great machine. Look forward to see more of this one. Can I send you the model of the Texas Longhorn to print?

I am curious about comparison speeds Elegoo vs. Prusa SL1S with high resolution resins, becouse I have to set the speed down on my SL1S due to surface artefacts and whobi, dobi, the speed is lower than other "standard" printers. So please take a focus on settings the print speeds and high ress resins. in case of rapid prototyping with less detail focus is tilting mechanism superfast. But in case of focus on details I still love my GK2 + ACF

I think Im going to adding this to my resin printing. After the SV08...and the A1 Mini Combo using the 120 credit.

Watching 1st time one of your vids. Thanks for sharing your fault as this isn usual. I'll have a look especially for not poking the Fep, but this never happened before. So I'll switch from elegoo S2 8k to this one, as I've been always waiting for a real auto leveling. Just a hint. There's also a heat USB plug available. In my man cave 2 degrees are missing. Significant for a great print or failure. I'll give it a try cause no additional heater plates would be necessary anymore. Greets from Germany. Keep on doing vids like that. 😂👍🏻👍🏻

Claps, user experince upgrades appricated.

The early bird price of this Printer is just insane. Elegoo resin printers are workhorses. I am so tempted to get it now but my Saturn 3 ultra is still going strong. So sad about the FEP mistake but so happy to hear the fail safe worked. Would have liked to hear and see more of this one via your experience. Meantime I must resist buying at this steal of a deal 😂 Edit: Well I went to order and in this day and age that ELEGOO STILL doesn’t ship to Hawaii really is unacceptable. As always I will wait until it’s on Amazon a year from now at this price. So disappointing

I think we are at the point with these printers that we know they will print all the detail you throw at it, printing a smooth model is was better as it can’t hide small artifacts and wobble lines in the details. - Inspyr3D

All this 3d printing stuff is just make-believe.. we just have to believe we can make things ;)

Elegoo just broke my heart. btw, have anyone told you that you look exactly like Dean Winchester?

Just received my order two days ago and I didn't run it until last night because my wash and cure station was delayed in transportation. once I got everything in and set up I ran the full chess set files on the provided flash drive, the first print went well had a slight deficit in one of the pieces but nothing catastrophic, I cleaned the build plate and vat and started a second print, running the same files and file settings and I let the printer run overnight woke up to just supports hanging off the build plate and the printer still running like it was printing I stopped it and after cleaning everything up I noticed there was a crack going from the left side of the LCD glass to the right not sure what happened or why the AI didn't stop the failed print and if there was something in the vat why did the object detection catch it before it broke the glass I just dropped $700+ on this printer waited over a week to receive it all for it to completely crapped the bed after two prints in which the files where provided by elegoo currently waiting for a response from their warranty office but this is bs

so sad about the FEP sheet now you can print a high detail pac-man!

Sent mine back. Nothing but errors out of the box. Automatic bed leveling failed. Then a vat full of resin and an error telling me no resin detected..

Happened to our Mars twice.

FEP replacement is my kryptonite - I have the worst luck/skill with tensioning and my 2nd FEP is dead before I know it. Any clue if replacing the FEP for the S4 doesn't require an obscure sized piece of foam or random bottle cap?

Never got to do that before!

sometimes, sh%^ just happens 😬 I'll stick with FDM, I'm thinkin'. Keep the great content comin', sir.

Will you possibly compair it to the saturn 3 ultra?

How did you get the old Chitubox 1.9.x to work with the Saturn 4? Mine only supports up to Saturn 3 and Mars 4.

It should be noted, you keep saying FEP when this printer uses PFA film.

I worry that the flip up lid doesn't seal as well as the big lids that just rest on top. I've used other printers with doors or hatches and they never seal well, which means the room ends up stinking of resin far more than the ones where the lid just sits on top. How have you found it for fumes?

Did they include a screen protector with the printer?

Fep ? Thought it was like pfa?

Please ..please ..please someone make a review comparing / talking about printing speeds (layer/hour)of these new resin printers in different types of resins since they are heavily marketed as “fast” printers yet nobody is talking about that.

I had one for a week and had nothing but problems I contacted support, and they said due to China having a New Year they were not sure when they could get back to me So the printer went back to them

is it possible that the resin goes into the machine when its tilting?

I think im getting into 3d printing at just the right time. Im leaning towards the elegoo brand but now i have to choose between resin and the other one, am i right in thinking the resin does prettier and more detailed prints? What are some other things worth taking into account if anyone has the time to help me out?

Great video :) but I can’t find the links to the wash and cure station :)

Happened to me with the saturn 3 ultra. Its insane

Friend, I need one too)

Bro, how do I get that shirt lol it's dope.

9:59 "Also having a good set of wash and cure machines is also essential. Now, it's not required, but..." Essential means required, so this is contradictory

ok so lets see u change the FEP sheet on the next video lol

Print jwellery

What are the resins like nowadays? Still toxic and smell bad ?

That lid is not my jam lol. Looks like a mid 2000’s PC

First😂

8:11 - Kek!

Didn't really go over the features of the printer. You talked more about your Mario models than the printer...
