Awesome! I like the colour transitions and the bird flying behind during the smoke reveal at the end!

Hi Tony. I should have posted a link to my blog by way of explanation (https://somei3deas.wordpress.com/2018/06/29/putting-all-the-recent-upgrades-together/).
This was the "Aria" that I had problems with just before the TCT show. If you recall, we decided not to attempt to print it at the show as there was at best a 50% chance of it being successful. That was before I cured the heat creep issues on the 5 colour Diamond and also when I was using the Titan extruders which were chewing through the filament due to the thousands of retract / unretract cycles over the same piece of filament.
So this was a test and I'm pleased to report that with the revised fan ducts and bigger fan on the Diamond, and the Bondtech extruders, I was able to print it first time, without any manual intervention. No problems feeding any filaments in, even the last Black filament which had undergone around 5,000 retract/unretract cycles before it started moving forward (there are 6,212 G10 retracts in the file).

@deckingman ahh yes, glad to see the Bondtechs sorted it!

Awesome that you got it all sorted out.

Awwww thanks. I've just about got the hang of this 3D printing stuff but I've still got lots to learn about video editing. I like to think that each one I do is a little better than the last but I've a long way to go. I've just recently finished building a PC based around an i7 8700K processor which has helped a lot. My biggest headache is finding decent audio tracks (music) that don't cost a fortune to license. I have a large audio collection which I use for my personal travel and holiday videos, but I can't use any of that stuff on YouTube.

Really wonderful Blog post and video. I really enjoyed the way you cut that together. I hope the Bondtech guys gave you a good deal, because that video is a love letter to them!

Thanks and Yes, Martin Bondeus (Mr Bondtech himself) has been kind to me - as indeed have others. That wasn't the reason for all the close ups of the extruders though. It was to show different extruders being used at different mixing ratios throughout the print in order to get green and orange as well as all the other shades from the five filaments (red, yellow, blue, clear and black). It's good marketing on the part of Bondtech to have the name so prominently visible on the product.

You're not alone in this. There are several sources of copyright free music available for creators now though. For instance: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCht8qITGkBvXKsR1Byln-wA
