The Magneto X was announced in 2023 to much interest, due to its large build volume and innovative linear motor system. Importantly, all of the software was open source. When Peopoly offer me the chance to be part of the field testing team, I jumped at the chance to try and improve the product for eventual customers.

I know that some of the changes I made have definitely been included in the production printers, but I’m not sure if everything has. Fortunately, because it’s easy to alter things to your taste, users can easily replicate any changes that were not. I’m not sure who else was part of the test team, but I’m sure the improvements were a collaborative effort.

This 3D printer was sent to me free of charge by Peopoly, so I could provide feedback and suggest improvements for production models. There was originally no request to produce any videos about the Magneto X, but Peopoly did not object when I described this video. All opinions expressed are my own.
