I will keep adding stuff to the files until they're complete and then I'll send updates as I keep improving the machine.

I've built a giant 3D printer with a build volume of 1110mmx1110mmx2005mm that adds up to more than 2.5 m3 build volume.

This is my largest build to date and as far as I know is the largest DIY 3D printer in the world. And I've designed it from scratch keeping in mind that anyone should be able to attempt tbis build so each one of the parts of this build fit in a 200x200 mm print bed.

This is part 1 of the build where I complete the frame and the CoreXY assembly, including the carriage with the hotend, extruder etc.

    Hey Ivan, if you are not going to be moving this printer much, you might think about securing it to the wall or floor with bracing, that would instantly increase the rigidity of the frame quite a bit. Nice job on the new printer!!! Been missing some Ivan Miranda content, hope the next video is coming sooner that later, as you do a great job with all your projects!!!! 😀

    Has to be big enough to print a fully articulated iron Man armor in one shot😊
  • @hippie-io7225
    Ivan, your engineering is awesome!! Thank you! There are at least a dozen little details (materials, part numbers, manufacturers, vendors, design decisions, etc.) in your build that could use a video each to discuss. I hope you consider doing so.

    I couldn't imagine printing all of this out. I get halfway through a small project and my printer starts giving me fits and I give up for months at a time. This would never get finished if I was doing it. I applaud you sir.

    Great work! Consider using Rivet Nuts on such thin aluminium walls. They are way stronger than simple thread i.n 2mm wall. And quite efficient on assembly
  • @rickseiden1
    I'd love to know how much time it took to print the parts, how long it took to put together, and how much it cost overall! It's a beautiful design.

    hey Ivan, You might want to consider looking at a way to use a pellet extruder in one of these awsome printers!, WAY higher threwput so would be realy nice for very larg prints! Another youtuber named Doctor D flow uses one and the prints come out realy fast!
  • @ruhtranortep
    Thank you for doing such good wire management! Solid engineering all around.
  • @javi9663
    Impresionante Ivan, te has vuelto a superar. La edición también es sublime, esa especie de stop motion taladrando y atornillando te quedó genial.

    You never cease to amaze me, Ivan! Keep making; I'll keep watching!
  • @1Chitus
    Your projects are truly exceptional and serve as a great source of inspiration! Thank you for generously sharing your work with the entire 3D printing community. ❀
  • @UncleJessy
    Just when i thought you couldn’t possibly go any larger
 amazing mate!
  • Es impresionante lo que hace este hombre. Eres un crack IvĂĄn. Muchas gracias por todo lo que haces. Enhorabuena

    Now, lets make a 20m x 20m version, and lets print a small school in vase mode đŸ€Ș You work is INSANELY cool, the builds are AMAZING, your video edits are so fascinating, I just love this !
  • @DavidMeggers
    You are, without doubt, a genius. This has been so beautifully designed and created. Thank you.
  • @030corpetlouvet
    Verdaderamente impresionante, con ganas de ver como evoluciona el proyecto.
  • @jasontrauer
    Magnificent. Order from chaos. If only the world could be assembled as perfectly and harmoniously as your builds. 👏👏👏
  • @hazonku
    LOVED that little red rod guide bit you made for the interior of the extruded aluminum. That was a brilliant solution to that known issue.
  • @sionej.5505
    I’m so obsessed with these videos, and just the idea of setting into a big project like this. I can’t wait to have my dream workshop and be able to spend my days tinkering and creating.
