- Опубликовано: 17 авг 2023
- Nylon is a versatile and durable 3D printing material, but it can be tricky to print with. In this video, I'll share some tips and tricks that have helped me get great prints with nylon. If you're new to 3D printing nylon, or if you're having trouble getting good prints, this video is for you.

Thanks for this video. Great tip regarding use of filament dryers directly feeding the printer. Also, thanks for the heads-up about not really needing an enclosure. I'm leaning toward a Bambu A1, and your Amazon solution means I don't need to shell out the big bucks for an enclosed P1S, although I might buy a $50 grow tent to replace the cardboard someday lol. Oh, one other thing, in case you ever make a follow-up video, Nylon is a brand name, the actual material is Polyamide or PA, IIRC, so you might get more RUclips search hits if you put "PA/Nylon" in your title next time. Keep up the great work!
I like facts wow! a different fact every 20 seconds, thanks for less small talk! amazing!
Glad you liked it! I try to not wast people’s time.
Thank you, also nylon 6 and 12 is uv resistant someday I will try make my own custom welding helmets.
Oh that is a cool idea. I would love to see a custom 3D welding helmet. If you do make one ping me on Instagram to I could see it.
@@BuildItMakeIt it be awhile, I need to save money and do more research which 3d printer to pick and design of the helmet also head strap.
Great video. My perspective is different than the overwhelming 3D printing people. First difference is I'm new to it. Second difference is my printer, a K1C. Being enclosed makes things easier and more inclusive. Third difference is upgrades. Fourth difference is my age. In other words, I've been interested in 3D printing concepts since the 90's, when costs were high, real high considering today's costs. So, today, prices are reasonable (my new laptop on run the printer modeling and slicing were more than the printer) and filament choices are better than ever.
This is a long way of saying short vids on printing are much better than 20+ minutes explaining setting up old, open designed printers with multiple setup steps, all of which effect the print.
The newest generation printers are as close to 1 step printing as ever. This creates the opportunity for great expansion of printing people. The 2nd generation of printing. While some of us remember the original airing of Star Trek and it's replicator, it's now available to tech neophites.
Today's steps are: (1) Place filament spool in dryer to dry for 6 hours minimum. (2) Feed filament thru dryer & it's tube into printer/head. (3) Prep buildplate. (4) Turn on printer & extrude until filament comes out. (5) Select model to print & print with bed calibration.
Sure, I left out modeling software techniques and slicer settings, if not obtaining downloads of print models, but, those are a different yt search.
Happy printing !!!
Wow ChatGPT making comments on RUclips.
Happy printing to you...
Very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
important note: teflon = brand name for PTFE. it's what you probably have in your printer
another note: the nozzle that came with your printer is probably brass
Thanks. Those brands getting in my brain make it hard to stop using them for the real term. I used to do some construction and still have a hard time not calling cement screws Tapcons.
My crap printer did come with a "high heat" hotend, but I've never used it.
I'm very tempted to give Nylon a try, if it would indeed be stronger than PLA or PETG, which are my 2 main go-tos.
As for drying, I didn't know that nylon was so hyper... what he said.... LOL
I do have a food dehydrator that is stilling in my Lab, but I've never actually used it.
So far the filaments I use don't seem to get yuky at al with moisture.
So much to do to prep.
But I also need to know if Nylon printing requires extra ventilation to the outside. If so, for now, that's a deal breaker.
LOL the amazon box, neat trick
Thanks :)
West3D Undertaker Tungsten Carbide nozzle is a much better choise than hardened steel, many many times harder and almost identical thermal properties as brass to get a good melt.
Also it is a 1-piece nozzle unlike ruby nozzles which is a piece of ruby embedded in brass.
I am not affiliated with them i just really think these nozzles are great, ive pushed almost 10kg of ASA-CF through one and its still like new.
With nylon being hydroscopic, what will the impact be if you use the finished nylom printed items in water?
The nylon will expand so it probably needs a coating to handle submersion. I know that epoxy is very commonly used to coat nylon parts that will be subjected to water, but on full submersion I am not sure.
can I get away with printing glass filled nylon with a .4 mm nozzle?
Yep that should work. I haven't had an issue with a .4 nozzle and glass filled before.
This left out so many important aspects of printing nylon wtf
Perhaps you could make a video to clear everything up for us.
What sort of things did I leave out, I would love to hear some of what I missed.
@@BuildItMakeItlike actually printing a part?!
@@BuildItMakeIt Like if one NEEDS a venting system to the outside. I think for ABS one does as it's toxic (I think). But I'm not sure about nylon.
@@BlondieSLprobably wouldve mentioned it if you did.
And they also increase stiff..........ness............... it sounded like your brain melted for a bit hahaha xD
Yeah sometimes that happens to the best of us :)

Use pla pla carbon it prints fine
I do like pla carbon fiber, but it doesn't hold up to water or outside usage for me over time. I also really like ASA carbon fiber filled. That gives me the durability for outdoor prints I like.
