Hey uncle jessy i had a question i have been seeing post about an up coming kick starter of a tinymaker 3d printer bundle with wash and cure set would like to know if ur going to look into that thanks have a good one
Where I live they won’t buy that kind of trash for such a high price sadly. I need something else to print and sell. Thanks for your tips and vid anyway!
Very cool to see you sharing the behind the scenes numbers and having a call to action instead of just buying another few Neptune's to basically print money for the next few weeks.
Holy crap, the makers of this Ghost have over 2200 Patreons paying $10 a month. That's $22,000 a month (+ more for sales on cults). Not bad! I really need to learn 3D modeling.
Tried selling these last weekend at our local Comic-con, printed in a nice glow in the dark filament. Figured being October some Halloween stuff would sell. Yeah, not one sold... yet we sold every dragon we had among other things.
Depends on the file maker. Zou3d (ghost file maker) allows you to sell prints if you’re part of their patreon. A bunch are now offering that which is cool
this is a patreon file so if you join you get the right to sell finished prints just not the file. another favorite Patreon of my mine is Chibi STL you resell rights with him as well.
I can think of a few Pumpkin files that are designed to hold a tea light candle (Regular and electric) or small sized lamp. If I had a few Neptune 2's set up for mass production (By that I mean five ore more) I might look into this. Same with a Saturn 2, Mix some clear resin and glow in the dark pigments. Now would also be a good time to plan out some Christmas/Winter files. To be ready for Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales.
I printed this model on the phenom resin printer without supports it's the first time I've ever done that. It worked out really well. Happy creating............
@@LofiEterna yeah it works . The person i printed it for was even more amazed at the ghost than i was . It will knock your socks off as well . Happy creating...........
I like that you shared whats popular on the market when it comes to large prints and not a video showing why 3d printing on etsy is easy money like others.
Thank you Uncle Jessy!!! I started a shop a few weeks ago and sold my first 2 orders last week. Been trying to figure out who to buy Patrons from!!!! Thank you Sir all set up and hopefully selling as well. I'm a huge Fan I have 10 Machines right now always tinkering and Repairing others printers. Thanks Again!!!!!
@@UncleJessy thanks brother! I wish I had jumped on that ghost wagon, can’t beat that profit for the time! I love that bambu printer, looks awesome & fast I keep seeing your insta videos, you’re definitely killing it man. Love all the tips I can’t keep up with ya lol
I've just gotten into digital sculpting/modelling. So, I'm interested in seeing my work printed. Your channel is great and really informative. I don't live in the U.S. so I can't buy a ghost from your Etsy store unfortunately (item doesn't ship to my country). But have found sellers closer to home and will be getting a ghost for myself.
I REALLY wish I had an FDM printer, but this is great! I'm currently trying to sell some Street Fighter themed minis and eventually, with limited licensing, I'll be able to print some Halloween themed minis too! So thanks for the quick tips, really appreciate it!
What is your average print time for your most popular size? I always worry that there is a bunch of time involved with prepping the prints, clearing and cleaning the plates, etc. While, yes, after your hard costs it will be around 3k in profit, but I would hedge that paying yourself the around $50/hr you are worth Minimum that your overall profit would drop quite a bit, but I could be wrong!
That's cool that the designer of the file doesn't mind people printing it for commercial reasons. I see a lot of Kickstarter pledge levels offering that sort of thing.
Uncle Jessy this is a awesome file I printed 2 of these ghost at 400% on my peopoly phenom for a coworker of mine I have to cure and paint them . They sure are funny I don't want my wife to see it she will want one or two . Thanks for letting us know about this file . Happy creating..........
But Uncle Jessy, isn't your existing platform massively beneficial for that kinda volume? I'd love to know your thoughts on how someone without such a large audience could approach this.
1000% an advantage I have. BUT I have seen others without that platform have posts on tiktok or IG go viral and get a massive bump in sales. It’s all about experimenting and getting your products/content out there so people can see it!
Hey Jessy wanted to say thank you very much for this video! I have been thinking about selling prints for a while and this video gave me the final push to do it. Would you be willing to share your print settings to help us better understand what to aim for? Thank you for your time.
Hey there! Glad to hear it helped give you a nudge. Even if you sell just enough to help fund buying more filament it could be worth it! It really depends on what you’re printing but I try to find a happy medium between speed & quality. Typically I will print and sell items at .2mm or .28mm layer height depending on the complexity
So.. Zou3D releases his models under a license that allows for selling of produced materials? That's nice. EDIT: Oh, duh. It's the first thing on his Patreon page. You receive a commercial license to sell physical representations of his model as long as you are an active Patreon supporter.
Thanks for sharing and being transparent, not many share this type of things. I'm wondering if the file would still be available for October patreons of ZOU3D. their instructions state this "Upon joining, you will only receive models from " and the ghost model was uploaded on September 20th
Hey Uncle Jessy, thank you for sharing this with us. Always enjoy the great video content you put out there. You mentioned that you'd recommend .6 or .8 nozzle end so what layer height would you recommend for a good finish? And I was going to go with 20% infill so I believe that should be good. Thank you again for your input and constant great content
How do you go about getting commercial licenses in order to be able to sell another's final product? I've been asked to sell some of the stuff I've done but hesitant to infringe on other's rights. Am I being overly cautious?
Hey @uncle_jessy, thanks for these 2 minute tip videos, they’re great. I was wondering what work you are doing on models after printing- are you selling them straight off the printer or are you sanding and priming/painting them? I’m struggling to find the balance between decent enough print quality for selling and taking an eternity to print. Ran off a 300% using @CHEP extra fast 0.28 profile (my normal default profile) and it looked decent but a bit blobby and I could feel the layer lines. Now trying the extra fast 0.12 profile. I have experimented with the smaller models (100%) running the best profile (which look great) but the larger prints will take days to complete. Also tried a 0.6 nozzle but wasn’t seeing much improvement in speed. Thanks
is the elegoo 3d printer that you are using is better than the Creality Ender-3 S1 Plus 3D Printer? Which Elegoo 3d printer are you using?? is it possible to do a video on which 3d printer is better to use? thanks for sharing
Hey Uncle Jessy! Love your videos! 1. Is it to late to jump in rightnow? 2. What are the best print settings to use. Thanks again for all the help your videos have always provided!
You can jump in now, but more of prepare. For the ghosts here, they are already extremely popular, so the sales most likely have lowered by now. Unless you are willing to spend money now, wait until a new model is popular and start making and selling at its peak. You'll get plenty of sales before it becomes to popular and no one wants it anymore
would you be willing to do a breakdown of the ~4000 you made, like how many sold, how long did the print take, did you print them to order or preprinted them and sold then.
How is the model license from the creator? seeing everyone making big money of his model seems unfair? I don't understand yet how to guard the . STL files or license them.
Most models aren't licensed to prevent sales. Some do, but these are open source, so anyone can do what they want with them except for claiming it as there's, and crediting the creator
I never thought about selling other peoples prints before if given permission and such. I been wanting to sell 3D prints for a month now and been trying to figure out what program to use to make my own designs but this would help speed up that process for sure to make some extra cash as $3000 in a week is more than I make in a month sometimes.
Yes. Unless the creator themselves specifically licenses it under no permission to make revenue, you can still use it. Watch his other video he recently made
ANOTHER TIP! Try printing and selling these on FB marketplace or in your local craft places! You might find a lot of luck selling locally!
Does the designer get a portion ?
Hey uncle jessy i had a question i have been seeing post about an up coming kick starter of a tinymaker 3d printer bundle with wash and cure set would like to know if ur going to look into that thanks have a good one
@@mcloven727 If you Patreon the guy you get a commercial license
@@rubenskithedoubleds1362 oh I’m 100% going to be backing that assuming it looks legit. Fingers crossed it’s actually produced and works
Where I live they won’t buy that kind of trash for such a high price sadly. I need something else to print and sell.
Thanks for your tips and vid anyway!
Very cool to see you sharing the behind the scenes numbers and having a call to action instead of just buying another few Neptune's to basically print money for the next few weeks.
Thanks! Fun trying something new and hopefully helping a few folks make a few $$
Thanks for the Tip! this is a great idea. Thank you for being open and sharing opportunities for growth instead of keeping it to yourself
Happy to help! More than enough people looking to buy these and honestly plenty of time to get in on it still

Yeah its all about reach. Jesse is a big name in 3d printing which im sure helps.
you also are selling to the wrong people... like thats a comic con of course the dragons gonna sell over the halloween decoration.
Great video! Could you make another explaining more about the logistics, costs, payments to see how much it really costs to sell a print? Thanks!
Forget Halloween start doing Christmas prints so you can just go on a postage frenzy and not have to worry about having enough printed to fill orders
excellent video and great tips! 💪😎
Thanks mate! Was a little too much to cram into a short so here we are 🤣🤘
Are you allowed to sell someone else's file? Thats why i never print stuff to sell, i cant create and i dont want to get sued. Great job!
Depends on the file maker. Zou3d (ghost file maker) allows you to sell prints if you’re part of their patreon. A bunch are now offering that which is cool
The file on question the creator of the file gives a commercial license as long as you altemain a member of his Patreon.
@@UncleJessy Nice!!! I will have to join! Thanks uncle jessy!!!!
this is a patreon file so if you join you get the right to sell finished prints just not the file. another favorite Patreon of my mine is Chibi STL you resell rights with him as well.
I have a jack-o-lantern I sculpted a couple years ago that I could totally print and sell.
Omg get on that! Heck you could consider selling the file and making some nice passive income form that

thanks for the answer I was looking for mate! I'm planning to print a large one with my M3 Max! I didn't know if it was printable with Resin or not.
@@LofiEterna yeah it works . The person i printed it for was even more amazed at the ghost than i was . It will knock your socks off as well . Happy creating...........
Awesome video! I think we're going to see a lot of 3D printed ghosts out and about this Halloween! Spooky!
Do the creators of the files not mind that you're reselling their products? Genuinely curious about this
Tought the same. that might be another tip for another video.
In this Case you get the Commercial License to sell those with the 9 dollar per month pledge
When you pledge on patreon most creators include a license to sell the models
I just posted these babies on facebook marketplace today and already got three sales thanks so much!
That sound made me scared lol I was prepared for a jumpscare
I like that you shared whats popular on the market when it comes to large prints and not a video showing why 3d printing on etsy is easy money like others.
this is literally the video i needed to see today!
Heck yeah! Thanks and hope it helped
@@UncleJessy I am already printing the model, I have some craft fairs coming up and this should be a big hit

Add some leds and a switch/battery pack!
There is actually a hole in the bottom for a led to light up the eyes
Really nice to see a quick to the point video with all the info you need! Perfect!
Have you tried printing on a resin printer yet?
I'm in, I'll go buy that file right now!
You are a legend for this
🤘🤘 hope it helps some folks
Impressive profit! I wonder if the ability to say "I bought an UncleJessy print" helps in those sales 😁
Hahah I'd like to think so but doubtful. TONS of people wanting to buy these
I love this file and a lot of the stuff Zou3d makes
I REALLY wish I had an FDM printer, but this is great! I'm currently trying to sell some Street Fighter themed minis and eventually, with limited licensing, I'll be able to print some Halloween themed minis too! So thanks for the quick tips, really appreciate it!
Very impressive 👏 congrats uncle
Thanks… and it could honestly be more if I wanted to put more machines / time / effort into it etc
That's Awesome! Printing can be very profitable and if you can do it making spooky stuff, why not?!?! We love that ghost!
Im curious about the copyright side of things. Since you got the model from someone else, do you have to pay royalties or anything like that?
thanks! been looking for something Halloween-themed to print and sell this looks like a great one.
Omg that’s amazing! I Love that model. Are these all done on the Neptune 2?
Thanks Uncle Jessy for the great content and inspiration! These videos inspire me to put more time into my Etsy listings. Thanks again.

Thank you for this video I planned on giving it a try but how does the business side of things work ?
I am doing something similar at a smaller scale XD
Its going okay XD made 30 sales so far in the past few months
My thing is Halloween themed Pokemon
Love it. Scaring up some profits
What filament do you use for the ghost?
Uncle Jessy this is a awesome file I printed 2 of these ghost at 400% on my peopoly phenom for a coworker of mine I have to cure and paint them . They sure are funny I don't want my wife to see it she will want one or two . Thanks for letting us know about this file . Happy creating..........
what settings did you use for neptune? my shoes and head tops aren’t very smooth
.2mm and I've printed some at .28
I just want to print one for myself it's a cool ghost
Whats up with the bass in the video from about 2:18 - 2:25? All the sudden my subwoofer started rocking the house. 😮

Yep! That’s part of his patreon subscription. As long as you are backing you can sell prints of their files
I wish people asked me to print simple stuff, its always big and comp.llicated
Where and how do you sell them? All my 3D prints just sit no matter where I try and sell them

Sorry just saw this. I’m printing at .2mm with a .6mm nozzle. .28 layer height doesn’t look bad as well if you really want to speed things up.
Cool, thanks! The .28 is good for 7 and 10 inch correct but not so much for smaller versions? That would make sense to me
How do you go about getting commercial licenses in order to be able to sell another's final product? I've been asked to sell some of the stuff I've done but hesitant to infringe on other's rights. Am I being overly cautious?
Price being $10 vs something like $45+

What material are you using? Is it pla?
Hey where can i source these STL files to 3d print and sell and not get in trouble? 😆

Have you done a video on how to price your prints for selling? I can't find anything if you have.
how has constantly printing affected your electricity bill?
Where are you selling?
How about the copyright issues? Can you just sell an opensourced model?
Yes. Unless the creator themselves specifically licenses it under no permission to make revenue, you can still use it. Watch his other video he recently made
