The blue-green color stayed consistently green on one side and blue on the other and had very little striping. The layer strength was really weak in small parts, so extra perimeters may be needed. Also, I don't know if it's a high altitude thing, but I'm not able to have tolerances smaller than 0.15 between moving parts.
Titanium anno is translucent grey with blue sparkles and it's amazing. It did have some stringing where it would make spider silk size strings, but that's my only complaint.
Works great, goes really fast, but I used to switch between my different filaments, mostly pla, petg, tpu, and pctg and at some point it clogged. Once it clogged I preformed at least a dozen cold pulls and have yet to successfully clear it. Replaced it with a diamondback for more versatility, but miss the higher speeds.
The water cool version doesn’t come with the ptfe adaptor or plate. West 3d doesn’t sell the water cooled plus version which I didn’t know existed. Unfortunately to even install this with a Goliath you have to buy a heatbreak adaptor and a plate. West3d doesn’t sell these items. The only place I could get the parts from are in China. Now I have to wait 3 weeks for parts to arrive in order to use my newly purchased and expensive Goliath with my newly purchased older model hextrudort. The thing that bugs me the most is that the plus water cooled version is only a couple bucks more and I have to wait for the other parts anyways, I wish I had known. Maybe this review will spare others from having these problems.
Love this mod! The kit was great and came with everything I needed to assemble it. This was so much easier than trying to source all the parts individually (what I did for my Voron 2.4 build. Lesson learned...)
I tried multiple rails from Amazon for my Voron 2.4 build and the quality (or lack there of) was all over the place. I considered getting genuine Hiwin rails but couldn't find a supplier that had them at a reasonable price. After chatting with West3D on the Voron Discord, I decided to give these rails a try. A few years later and these rails are still going strong with no play!

Part works perfectly. Customer service is great. They are super helpful every step of the way. Would recommend buying from here!
I’ve been using the Nocturne camera on several of my 3D printers, and it has been fantastic. The image quality is clear, and the camera has proven to be very reliable during long prints. Setup was straightforward, and it works smoothly with my printer monitoring setup.
What I really appreciate is how stable it is—no random disconnects or issues, even during multi-hour prints. I’ve installed it on multiple machines now, and it has been consistently dependable across all of them.
Overall, a very well-designed camera that does exactly what you need for monitoring prints. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a reliable camera for their 3D printer.
Kit was put together in typical LDO fashion. Well organized, with everything present. All high quality parts. And as usual, West3D is a joy to buy from.
My first printer and WOW this thing is awesome, I have had zero issues with this Bambu 3D printer. Thank you to Daniel for all his experties and helping me choose the right printer for me and my needs. I highly recomend WEST 3D!!!
I’ve been using this to print Easter egg fidgets for the kids and their friends. They’ve been turning out to be a big hit with the colors.
The cardboard reel became deformed and caused some frustration in the ams.
The forest green matte is really a gorgeous mint green. I Printed with a “generic PLA” profile at 220° on my prusa and it was just perfect. (Originally tried with an HTPLA profile like Ambrosia or ProtoPasta and it was too hot.) It is the middle of the part in the picture.
Bought this bed so I didn't have to install the heater and magnet myself, but after installation and configuration, the bed has a high edge (one of the unsupported corners on my trident) that is 0.1mm higher than the rest. Otherwise only about 0.07mm out of flat!
Really grateful for how well labels the contents of this kit are, there are so many different bits that it would be really easy to be impossible to build.
The bearings look good, make sure to review your BOM for how many you need
A quality AC power switch that clearly indicates when it is powered
All the parts needed for the right size of printer with plenty of extra belt!
I was super happy with every part of my order. I needed the extruder fast but never mentioned it or asked for faster shipping. It got to me very quick. I was shocked to see that the order was filled not long after I placed the order. Other companies need to pay attention to this one, they are doing it right.
I will definitely will be buying my 3D printer parts from them when I need them. Awesome company and they do it right.
