Your prints, designs and videos are top notch and thank you for sharing them all. Don't burn yourself out, every other week is fine. for this xmas I printed out 8 snowmen bodies and accessories of various colors and put all the parts in a box and the family and I assembled snowmen on xmas day! it was a great holiday activity and everyone loved the snowman they got to take home! Thanks again for all of your hard work and good luck in 2022! Happy Holidays!
Sounds like a wonderful family activity! Happy Holidays and thanks for printing and sharing my designs!
I’d prefer every other week. Video editing is time consuming. I like the puzzles but I’d prefer to see more of the other designs. Feels weird telling someone my preferences for their free labor.
Yes! Cutting back on video editing time is definitely one of my motivations for asking that question.
I'll be sure to do a mix of projects. While I like designing puzzles, I don't have nearly enough ideas for 2022 to be all puzzles all the time!
Congratulations on 1 year 3D Printy! That was a ton of empty spools at the end lol. How many miles would that be based on your brand? I look forward to many more years of 3D Printy genius designs and calm, soothing, well produced videos:) I'm super happy to be a part of it when you were just an up and coming youtube star. You give me inspiration. I bought my 3D printer in summer 2020 in hopes of turning it into a business. I am happy to be part of the 3D printing community "cool kids" but my printer just sits and collects dust because I get impatient and frustrated about dialing in the settings/profiles enough to make anything large. It always fails. (When I become more financially stable, I promise to help support your channel!)
Thank you!
VERY rough estimate: 18 miles (29km) of filament. This includes a lot of cardboard spools that weren't shown because I recycled them.
I hope you'll be able to get back into 3D printing! I understand that frustration - my first 3D printer also collected dust for about a year. For some 3D printing hobbyists, tinkering with printers IS the hobby. That's great for them, but I found that initial uphill battle quite frustrating! Fortunately, it's possible to tune things sufficiently so that you won't have to bother with it all that much. The tech is also improving with better filaments, better printing surfaces, readily available auto bed leveling, etc.
Either way, it's good to have you and anyone interested in the hobby in the community - even if you aren't actively printing!
Found your channel and designs thanks to Zack Freedman. It's an instant Sub from me.
Welcome! Zack is far too kind. I hope you'll enjoy the projects and videos!
How on earth do you only have 4k subs. You are due a meteoric rise in the next month or two. You're about to blow up.
Haha, thanks! To be honest, I thought I'd be lucky to reach 1k in the first year. I'm happy to see people are enjoying the designs and videos!
What type of PLA do you use? your prints always come out so matte and nice. And i like the "texture" that the prints have, a really nice look.
Thanks so much! The filaments I use most are
Hatchbox (solid colors)
Protopasta (sparkly stuff)
Prusament (tolerance-critical mechanical parts)
Inland (prototypes) and
Overture (their matte black is super inexpensive)
The large box in this video used a nicer-than-usual roll of Inland marble PLA. Marble textured PLAs generally do a very good job of hiding printing defects.
I also print using nozzle temps that are a little cooler than most people - but still within the recommended range shown on the filament roll. For many PLAs, this seems to result in a more matte finish, although I have NOT actually done a side-by-side test to prove that.
Finally, I print quite slowly - no faster than 50mm/s on perimeters.
Awesome first year man! I am KniRider on Thingi BTW.
How about for a project, some design element that incorporates the empty spools! I see a ton of drawers and such floating around and even one that was so cool on kickstarter I think that was using the spools for buildings with inserts that would fit inside and you could use for decoration or table games.
Every other week would be perfectly fine. Heck, once a month would be fine. Do what you can, when you can and don't over stress yourself.
Now how about a box that is 290mm deep to almost fill my Ender 5 ;) That would be a bit of filament!
Hey KniRider! I think you'll like my next project. It will use a couple of those spools... although not nearly enough.
I might knock out some taller versions of the box in the near future - it's pretty much inevitable!
Happy New Year. I like what you presently do, so I wouldn't recommend any changes. Very original work which I like to watch.
Thank you! More projects are in the works!
For 2022, more puzzles. And one every other week is good if it gives you more time to refine and design. Great channel. I used the 'old' large box to gift some scratch offs. Had to enlarge by 127%. Worked well. Took my wife about a minute or two to figure out how to open it. 🤔 🙂
Glad to hear that the design led to a fun experience! Well, fun for you, I assume - I'm not sure if your wife was enjoying the mini puzzle or not, haha.
Your videos are excellent, you nailed the presentation crib the get go. Can't wait to see what you come out with in 2022.
I especially like your designs that use spare filament. I have so many 1ft chunks of unused filament piled up that are begging to be repurposed.
Every two weeks is just fine. Your quality is top notch and I'd happily wait even longer for you to be able to maintain it.
Thanks so much! I probably will have more projects that use filament hinges, or raw filament in other ways!
Zack send me this way. Looks like I've got a bit of binge watching in my near future.
Hey, Happy New Year. Looking forward to see what else you come up with.
Welcome and thanks for checking out the channel!
I love your channel it’s so inspiring! I made two gift boxes that were very popular. My dad uses his push button fidget every day. For next year I would love to see more fidgets. Take your time every other week is good. I would also love a video on how you come up with and design your creations! Also troubleshooting.
P.S. Your cat is very pretty.
Awesome! I love hearing stories about these projects that are still being used long after the print is done.
Yes, I think with a slower update schedule I'll be able to dedicate a little more video time to the process, and the occasional cat appearance of course!
Thank you.
Congratulations!
I think every two weeks will create the most productive environment for all.
Haha, it isn't very fair that I'm always throwing projects at other people to print :) Good point, a slower schedule might be good for all of us!
Void star sent me!! Definitely worth subscription. Great models, I have printed them before, but unless you type your whole channel name in search you don’t show up in searches! I have been missing out all year, but I am glad I was sent your way.
It's not the easiest channel name to find - my bad! But now the channel has been blessed by the great cyborg himself, so welcome!
I pike your puzzel boxes. Thoughtful and yet interesting and somewhat easy to make. I gave sexeral as gifts and they were well received. Weekly vs biweekly? What ever you need.
Thank you! I'll probably have at least one new puzzle design figured out early in the year. Thank you for printing and gifting my designs!
Great stuff 3D Printy! I have made several of the smaller ones. Now getting ready to do the BIG BOX. Thank you.
Good luck with the giant box. It's a long print, but potentially very useful!
OMG OMG. I wanted this and I got it. Will use it as a letter holder box. 😋😋
Nice. I am thrilled about the Quality of life update on this iteration too
Great! I like hearing that the designs will serve a long life as something useful!
I found you through Zach Freedman’s channel. I am trying to get my printers functioning but am going to try your designs. They are amazing.
Welcome and a speedy recovery for your printer!
I have some environmental guilt over the plastic waste this hobby creates. Id love to see some more functional prints that end up cutting overall plastic and co2 waste, from packaging and shipping every day products
You might not know it from the closing credits, but I'm a huge fan of cardboard spools. I'm glad to see more manufacturers have recently announced switching away from the mystery plastic spools that can't be recycled. Spool-less filament is also interesting, but seems less popular.
I also think more designs should work toward reducing support material use. The vast majority of my plastic waste (except for the occasional failed print) is just the tiny purge line and skirt (or brim).
Finally, I hope to see more advancements in TRULY compostable filament. If you haven't already seen the recent video by Maker's Muse on the subject, I recommend it! ruclips.net/video/jCsnVp6mEbk/видео.html
These are really cool. Have you thought about making a box that opens by pressing a button? Like a hidden button. Like imagine an inlayed emblem or something that doesn't look like a button, but you press it and it unlocks the box.
Neat idea! Maybe I'll do something like that in the future... or combine it with a secondary action to make it even trickier!
my only requirement is something that wont end up used once and thrown away !!
also you can make a cat's playground with all those empty filament spools ..... or maybe recycle them into usable filament
My very next project plan just so happens to use empty filament spools... although sadly it won't make much of a dent in my collection.
Rest assured that all these spools aren't just going in the trash. They will be reused one way or the other. That said, I prefer cardboard spools when I can get them, so that short video actually didn't include a ton of spools that we recycled months ago.
Just found your channel and cant belive i have never heard of you before! Such absolutely great work! I dont know what i want to print first :D
Welcome! It's still a very new, so I've by flying under the radar. Thanks for checking the channel out!
Your out of control. I better get a bigger machine, for whatever's next. Lol. Love it. Great work as always. Your subs is about to pass both my partnered channels, combined, that I've spent years, and hundreds of videos on. I thought we were friends... Lol. Happy New Year!
I really hope to keep MOST of my designs small enough for medium sized printers. But if you want to use this as an excuse to buy a bigger machine, then... oh, okay. Yeah, you better go get a huge printer fast, there's just no choice, aww-shucks!
Happy New Year, my friend!
@@3DPrinty 😂🤣😂 I got a CR-10 early Dec, but it’s been a paperweight with endless problems. I just finally got it sorted. Big Models, Let’s Goooooooo
Thanks for Letting Zak show us your work - VERY NICE!
Thank you! I'd be a fool to turn away Voidstar Lab's famous cyborg!
Will you update your standard sized boxes with the new spring/gear parts?
I'm considering it! It might be a little tricky because the newer design requires more space (the spring can't sit under the gear, or it won't work). But it is something I plan to attempt!
Is it just me, or anyone else get a strong This Old Tony vibe? Not a bad thing as I love his video formats and stumbled into this channel today to find a familiar but pleasing similarity.
👐 - I agree!

More refined?
Why does this feel like a attack on the quality of my own problems
I assure you, it's an attack on my own projects, haha. Far too often I'd post a video and immediately think "wait, why didn't I take a few more minutes and design it this other way that's way better?"
I say every other so you can make bigger ideas whenever you want and not feel pressured. Love all them so i say keep going as is with your ideas and prints, whatever they may be.
Thanks so much!
I love the updated spring and gear! I was having trouble with those on my prints. I always had to sand the peg down to fit in the gear. Will this be updated for the other lids?
Glad you like it! The other projects now have a file called "Merged Spring" that's similar to this. Unfortunately, I had to make a few compromises to get it to fit on those older projects, so the spring is a little softer, but that might be a worthwhile tradeoff.
New springs are on Thingiverse and Prusa Printers. Uploading to Thangs as well soon.
190x190. I feel left out with my Prusa Mini. 🤣
Now you have a tricky decision - scale up the smaller design or scale down this bigger one? Either should be possible!
these are incredible, and i love these exclamational videos. I just got a 3d printer and this is a great resource for learning and entertainment :D
Welcome to 3D printing and congrats on the printer!
Feels like a spool project might be in order, would be nice to have some kind of reuse for all of the empty spools we end up with.
It won't take care of ALL those spools, but I do have a spool-related project in the works!
Congrats! I like the vibe of this channel. Good editing and always gets right to the point.
If I had any wishes/suggestions for future designs, it would be to see designs that relied less (or not at all) on glue, hardware, and magnets. The hardware and magnets in particular aren't readily available at retail (that I know of) and it's a nuisance to wait for shipping :)
Thanks so much!
Good feedback! Some designs will still need glue and/hardware, but I hope to rely on them less or provide more alternative assembly options. For example, the articulated snowman uses a rubber band, but you could also switch that out with a hairband or many other common flexible items.
Caveat: I love magnets and will always have lots of projects that use them... sorry! I buy my magnets right off Amazon in packs of several hundred. I also tend to only use 2 magnet sizes over and over again - 3x3mm and 3x6mm cylinder magnets. So if you get them for 1 project, you'll have them for others!
Thx for your excelent Videos, do you have a Link of the Glue?
Thanks! You can get the glue here: www.3dgloop.com
Make sure that you order the correct formulation of glue for the type of plastic you're using. 3D Gloop has PLA/ABS/PET formulations.
I'm really thinking about getting my own 3d printer now, could you recommend some models and respective tuning tutorials to me? your print quality and knowledge seems incredibly high and I feel you'd have a pretty good idea of what to do.
Thanks so much! Print quality is a mix of so many factors.
TLDR: Check out Maker's Muse, CHEP, and 3D Musketeers.
I focus on using fairly good filament (not super expensive, but not bargain bin either), somewhat slow printing speeds, and lots of patience with matching nozzle temperatures for each filament.
I also print mostly in PLA, which is very forgiving, prints at lower temps, and doesn't warp much. I also don't use many filaments with fancy additives. They look cool, but require more effort to tune.
Inexpensive printers ($275-350), like an Ender 3, can produce very good prints with some work. Slightly more expensive printers will save you effort with nicer extruders, auto bed leveling, and well-tuned printing profiles (like Prusa does with their PrusaSlicer). I personally prefer direct drive printers, but the extra weight means that your quality will suffer more if you print faster.
The famous 20x20x20mm CHEP Cube (thangs.com/CHEP/CHEP-Cube-21739) is a great place to start with printing tests. Most of my designs are very geometric, so I'm looking for clean sidewalls and consistent cooling around the nozzle. MakersMuse also has some very good "torture" style prints. But I'd save that for a later challenge.
Someday I'll actually record a video for this. But to be honest, there are lots of videos out there already that I think do a better job with printer tuning and such - especially channels that work to get less expensive printers to turn out prints that rival their pricier alternatives. I mentioned just a couple good ones in the TLDR above. Good luck and welcome to 3D printing!
@@3DPrinty thank you for responding so quickly! I'll take a look at your suggestions when I next get the chance, looking forward to joining this hobby, especially as it blends well with some of my others :)
This model is so coollll
I would love to see you explore puzzle boxes more! Maybe some larger, more complex style puzzles would be great and something that’s not really done in 3d printing yet!
Thank you! I hope to have at least 1 new puzzle design in the first few months of 2022. If it goes to plan, it'll be quite complex - although I hope to make it very easy to print!
@@3DPrinty I look forward to it! You’re pushing new fronts in 3d printing and it’s great!
Zack Freedman sent me here. Glad he did. Awesome channel man!
Welcome and thank you!
Congratulations on your one year anniversary! Can you consider some cat related or cat themed prints? Or even pets in general. I would love a cute print to surprise my wife with and I love the theme and ideas of your prints. Thanks and keep up the great work and ideas!
Thank you, the year really flew by!
I haven't figured out any cat-related prints yet, but I'm sure there will be some eventually!
@@3DPrinty Thank you I will keep an eye out for it :D
What printer do you use for your showcase prints?
I use an SW x1 for prototypes, and a Prusa Mk3s or Project R3D Daedalus for the more polished prints. In this particular video, everything was printed on the Prusa.
Great addition with the easier assy, screw slot!
It only took me a few dozen designs to think of it :)
The new design for the spring looks great. That was the trickiest part of the smaller box.
Where does one find that pla glue?
Here ya go! www.3dgloop.com
They sell smaller 15ml (0.5 oz) tubes so you can test it out without getting a whole lot. Just make sure that you select the right version for PLA-to-PLA bonding.
@@3DPrinty awesome, thanks!
Thank you for all those amazing designs!
I personally love puzzles and toys like the snowman! Also I would encourage you to take your time and enjoy your work rather than be limited by a schedule. Allow yourself the discretion of changing the schedule when ever you feel it's necessary! Happy holidays!
Thanks so much! It's certainly a tricky balance between having some schedule, which I find very motivating, and having a too packed schedule, which could certainly lead to burnout. I'll keep both of these in mind as I go. Happy holidays!
WHAT IS THAT CLICKY BUTTON THING IN THE INTRO I NEED IT!
That's from my "Toggly Fidget Button" series. Here's the specific video where I added multiple sets of buttons into a single fidget: ruclips.net/video/YYyJ1ec0tcE/видео.html
Great work!!
Thanks so much!
One year, what a wild accomplishment, it's inspiring! The amount of improvement in both projects and video editing is impressive!
For future project ideas, I have a selfish request! I use the (modified) hexagonal rolling container to carry my art supplies all the time, and people always ask about it because of the unique design. Although it's a little unwieldly to carry in a bag or pack due to the diameter. I would love a design of a thinner, segment-divided storage that could hold pens pencils, and markers and fit more comfortably in a shoulder bag.
Okay, something for the idea list! Ideally it'll have a unique quirk to it so it's not JUST a resized rolling storage bin.
VoidStar sent me! Glad I found your channel. My previous printer (modified Printrbot Simple Metal) had a board failure a month ago. My wife and her brother convinced me that I needed a new printer instead of repairing the old one. They then asked me what I would get, and then they gave it to me for Christmas! I’m a lucky guy! 👍🏻
Awesome! And who knows... maybe you'll resurrect that Printrbot eventually and have 2 printers!
Hi Joe, Thank you for all you work and amazing designs all through 2021! It was a real pleasure to follow your footsteps all year building a lot of fun projects. Looking forward for 2022. Pierre
Thanks so much Pierre!
I agree. Every other week would be a fine change. This channel and everything you make is a wonderful thing, and if it in anyway helps alleviate creator burn-out as well as gives more time for these amazing creations then I'm completely for it. Alternatively I'd also be more into watching the documentation of the creative process as with the twist lock pumpkin, even if those are more of a side thing, but that's just my 2 cents.
Thanks! I'm formatting a plan that'll should allow for a few more of those videos!
Amazing big box! I wish the design was ready weeks ago. Congratulations for your first amazing year! Would be nice to see some more tutorial videos with F360 and maybe your thoughts on how to develop a design/mechanism. But anyway, go on like this and have a happy new year!! I wish you, and your family all the best and stay healthy!
Thanks so much! I definitely underestimated the demand for this iteration of the twist lock boxes!
Good to know, I plan to sprinkle in a few more tutorial videos next year. Hopefully I can pair them with actual printable projects, so they'll be enjoyable for both designers and printers.
Happy New Year to you and yours!
Your designs are staggeringly amazing. Very glad I found your channel. I'm sure you get asked about your printer and settings all the time, because your prints come out jaw-droppingly excellent, but you should really consider doing a video that just talks about little tips and tricks you've picked up along the way (as well as your printer and preferences).
Thank you! I think I'll sprinkle in some tutorial type videos next year!
I've been subscribed since you started and it's been a wonderful year. You are by far my favorite designer, I've printed everyone one of your projects and I can't wait to see what you dream up next. Your videos are funny and engaging and to be honest, I was blown away with your release schedule and didn't know how it was sustainable but it's amazing that you accomplished it. I am totally for an every other week schedule to both give you some rest and to see some bigger projects.
Thanks again!
Thanks for watching and printing! More projects are on the way... at a slightly more reasonable pace!
Awesome video.
Thanks!
Looks nice. But what are they for?
Could be used for generic storage, but I think it's ideal for gifting!
I stopped using normal wrapping paper 5 years ago and now I use fabric, which is reused when giving gifts to family members and close friends. Same idea here! Of course it is NOT economical or environmentally friendly if you plan to only use it once.
@@3DPrinty well Filaments are biodegradable. So yes you are saving the environment very slowly 🐌. Lol But looks cool.
Love this new design, thank you. But i have to say, I hate the intro music..maybe consister changing it. Keep up the good work and i look forward to more cool projects.
More designs are on the way!
I like the theme, but I'm sorry to hear it isn't your jam. I already have plans to change the music every year - as a fun way to track what "era" an old episode is from!
Slogra, who wrote the original theme (as well as the Halloween remix) is already working on the intro for season two! But until that's done, there'll be a few more videos using the season one theme.
Great update and a wonderful design ! Made a gift box this year and was just an enjoyable experience. Can’t wait to see what 2022 has in store for your channel.
Thanks so much. I'm glad you enjoyed printing the design!
Great videos, it'd be cool if you made a compilation for the years end of all (or maybe just your favourite) prints that you made!
Good idea! I might make a TikTok or RUclips Short covering that topic! Just a top 5 sort of thing. Thanks!
Very cool!
Thank you!
Congrats on the one year! I really enjoy your videos and designs, so I can't wait to see what you put out for us next year!! Also, as somebody who has printed out a handful of your twist lock boxes in various styles, I can tell I really like the updates you made to the spring/gear design. It was cool watching the design grow and evolve the last few months!
Thanks so much! There's always something that can make a design better, so I'm happy to make improvements when I can!
Wow that’s an impressive amount of awesome stuff you’ve made.I would never have guessed it only took you a year.
Thanks so much - It adds up very quickly!
You are my inspiration for becoming a better 3D designer. Thank you!
So happy to hear it! Thanks!
Ayyyyyy
Great stuff & congratulations on 1 year!!
Thanks so much!
Good job!
