You know, I was just thinking I hadn't seen new videos from you in a while. You clearly don't disappoint! Thanks again and best of luck in your new product line.
I’m still here ☺️ just took a bit longer to get this one printed and up on Etsy than I thought. I’m trying to get a video out minimum every 2 weeks. Thanks for being here and watching!
It is incredible how in 2024 one can go from idea to sales so fast and with very limited "artistic skills". It really shows the power of technology (and how much young people like you benefit from learning about it).
yes i would love a more in depth tutorial for this program. Ive seen some stuff on hueforge and im super interested in using it once i get my Bambu Labs A1 with AMS Lite :)
great video, this is the first time I understand how the Hueforge actually worked, so yes please make a full tutorial if you did not already made one :) Subscribed btw ;)
If you have not done a video in Hueforge by itself, you should. There is some content out there, but plenty of space for another voice. You taught me about the describe file as I was not aware :) Much easier than keeping both files open and going back and forth. Thanks
Thanks for the video. I haven't looked through all comments but AJAX has a good video explaining how he increases thickness of the base layer in Bambu slicer to get less flimsy prints without impacting a preferred finished result of the HueForge output.
1:48 I heard about this somewhere else, still need to try it myself. I’ve been saving my empty spools to roll my Christmas lights onto. There’s probably a little clip you could print also (using the last little bits of filament) that clips onto both the spool and the end of the lights to keep them from unraveling. Like I said, I havent tested this yet but it seems like it would work well!
@@macymakes3dpeople complaining about 3d printing waste have zero concept of what waste really is, but I can't blame ya for giving the viewers what they want 😂
Hi, Macy: I love your videos and teaching style! Quick question..... do you ever use wood filament in your 3D printers? If so, have you had any issues with using it on your Bambu Labs printers?
Man, I need a video of how to do the illustrator portion in a free tool like inkscape. That is the only thing I'm having trouble with. I don't have illustrator and I've been having issues with understanding that
These look pretty cool, I'll have to try out HueForge. I wonder if this could somehow be used to make lithophane prints more realistic. Also, I couldn't exactly tell from the settings I saw in your video, but it looks like you may have used rectilinear patterns for the top surface infill based on the way the light reflects off of the surface of the bookmarks and accentuates regions of darker/lighter patches of infill which were laid in different directions. If so, you could try using the monotonic infill instead, which ensures it lays down the lines all in one direction and dramatically increases the visual consistency of the top surface. In any case, I've been enjoying your videos and keep it up :) giving you support from Holly Springs, NC.
Wow thank you I’ll give that a try! Once it says “can’t use that infill at 100%” I assumed it had to be the rectilinear since that what it changed to but now it know. ☺️
Empty spools can be used to make stackable item drawers. There are designs for this on Thingiverse and Printibles. Each compartment can be made to slide or swing out, depending on design, it's a great project, and not too hard if you don't mind sacrificing the print time for them. Alternately if you're kinda handy, the compartments can be made from wood.
Hi, Macy: One last question, promise! In reading through the vlogs, etc. .... it sounds like if you use wood filament in the P1S, it can be extremely problematic (that's why Bambu doesn't offer it) and can invalidate the Bamby warranty. Is that what you've heard, too?
I haven't heard. Maybe just avoid using it in the AMS for now and print wood as a single color print or set pauses and manually do color changes just to be safe.
How long does it take to print multi-colors with FDM ? A long long time. May I suggest that you print the base with fdm in a single color with elevated dimensions and than use UV print to finish off.
Good on you for reusing those spools! If you are looking for a way to reuse empty spools, I have just the way! If you are using bambu spools, you might want to consider printing the reusable spool carousel that you can see on bambu lab's channel. Another way is to purchase refills instead of new filaments with spools on bambu lab's store, iirc, you can get 4 dollars off on a new spool, you might also be able to get some out of stock colors!
After watching your video decided to try and make a bookmark for kids at my church. Not anywhere as fancy - no hueforge. Can you tell me what your final thickness is. I started with 2mm thick and I think that is too much
Hey, thank you for the video. Do you have any alternative suggestions for adobe illustrator? As a college student I have access to the entire autodesk library but don't know what would be the best alternative.
Hi, Macy: One more question, please.... for a first 3D printer, would you go with a Bamboo P1S? Would that be a sound option to go with as you're learning?
This is pretty interesting! I've been making pseudo-woodblock prints by using rendered grayscale images (or color ones that I've converted and adjusted the exposure and contrast) and just bringing them directly into Cura. Cura will then ask you if you want the darker parts to be elevated and the lighter lowered or visa versa. It's simple but it's also a quick way to print out fonts for 3D signs and car/motorbike emblems. From here you can use them as-is, or use polystyrene and a vacu-former for something a little more weather-hardy if you're using PLA like I am.
How did you get the pattern to stay put while you moved the bookmark to different locations (around 7:30)? Whenever I apply a pattern to a shape, then move it or resize it, the pattern stays the same and just moves with the shape or gets bigger.
I'm wondering if you have only one AMS or an AMS Lite, but wanted to use 8 colors, how you would do that? Change colors for the first 4 and pauses for the rest? how would your slicer know what location the additional filament colors would come from?
I'll try and make a video on this soon but you'll need to add a pause when it's printing layer 3 so you can change the filament in spots 1 and 2 to colors 5 and 6, and then you'll need a pause during color 6 so you can change out slots 3 and 4 with the colors you'll need for 7 and 8. When you're slicing, assign color 5 to slot 1, color 6 to slot 2, color 7 to slot 3 and color 8 to slot 4, and then just make sure you add the correct pauses ^ and switch out the colors to the appropriate slots. A lot of moving parts but it's definitely possible!
I have them stacked everywhere I might build house with them one day lol! how do you get Etsy to show you all the results? mine just say 1000+ not the actual number.

I have an X1C as I replaced my ender 3 with it, I have primarily used single color as I print supports and one off jobs, but seeing you use multiple colors makes me want to try. You break it down and make it look so simple. Great Job.
Thanks amazing... you'll already know that when you personalize something that you could earn more so perhaps providing the option to add that personalization at an additional cost would bring you more $$$$$
One thing I noticed on your website: A Specific Bookmark that a customer wants is cheaper than the monthly subscription where they get something that they may not want. Seems a bit backwards.
When you import an image make sure you’re doing it by “place embedded” and that’ll embed your image. If it says it’s linked you need to embed it before you can use it. Should be at the top
Thanks I have HueForge and dont need chatgp nor Midjourney! As I have the time to take my time. I can see they help yourself time wise though. Laurie. NZ. 😊
well, looks like i'll be looking into hueforge! Per bookmark, are you using just one AMS/4 colors, or do you have multiple AMS units connected? great tutorial...ty!
I only have one AMS per printer. If it uses more than 4 colors I just add pauses so I can switch out filament from earlier slots. Like if it needs 5 colors I'll add a pause when it's printing in slots 3 or 4 so I can put new filament in slot 1 for color 5 to use. 6 would go in slot 2, 7 in slot 3, and continuing on.
They look pretty cool! Btw you got a lot of filament haha I can see why throwing filament could trigger people. A see through could be really cool and also other shapes as well , you could even personalize them as well.
I accidentally find your tutorial and it is really good. This is the first time I know how to change color at which layer height I want. BTW we are using the same 3d printer P1S. Thank you.
If there are too many products in a category, it's much harder to get on the first few pages, so no one will ever see your product. You need to find a category that has a low number of products and high search volume.
@@macymakes3d ok good haha! i've been having good success with my handmade furniture sales but wanted to start making/selling more small items with my cnc and laser (which i should've been doing before now🤦🏻♂️). Keep up the great work, I just subscribed. I just 3D printed my first thing at my friends house with his Prusa printer...now i'm hooked 🤣
I'd really like a hueforge video, I like the way you explain yourself. Just my vote 👍

Got it! I’ll work on one 😊
I dd not expect those really really good results. Nice
And i do like the see through
I really dislike AI replacing artists but this is too smart for me to dis, way to go
She is the artist.
Been using Hueforge for awhile, great bit of software for 3D printing, ps its a book mark you don't want it too thick, great job
Hueforge! 🙌
I learned so much from this video. Thank you!
That's great! Thanks for watching :)
Really informative video, been looking into 3d printing and its great to see how u think and work, learned some new things. Thanks! Keep it up
HueForge video please :)
Great video, loved it!
Would love to see the same type video on how you created the two color name plates.
I love it, this is a great combination of different technologies 👊
Remember with HF you need to have the commercial license to be able to sell prints. Good process! Looking forward to see how it works out for you
Yep I have the lower tier commercial license to sell prints but not files. All good there.
this was an awesome video learned so much! Thank you !!! Will try hueforgeee soon you made it seem so easy

Hello from France Macy, very cool video, learned quite a bit!
Hello! Thank you so much for watching ☺️
Omg, I was struggling with printing my 2d art on products. Never heard of HueForge, ffs it changed my complete workflow!
Great explanation of your workflow.
Got an A1 combo recently becuase I wanted to do HueForge things myself!
Nice! Hueforge is so fun
Won't it push the pattern into the pages? Perhaps a few coats of transparent resin would solve it.
great!
Looks great!
Great job so much inspiring
this is one of the best tuts ive seen in sooo long well done concise to the point and not gatekeeping anything, subbed
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it :)

Do you have the problem with the rounded corners of the bookmark looking jagged instead of a smooth rounded edge?
Hey! I've been featured! lol

just bought hue forge would like an in depth video please
Need more bookmark videos 🙏 can you do one using gimp?
Wow, thank you, didn't know about HueForge ! gonna try it right now ! ;)
actually didn't... it is a paid software, dang it
I don't sell on etsy, but I would like to know what type of filament you use for your flexible bookmarks?
Just normal PLA, but the bookmarks are so thin that they're floppy.
Definitely make a cat one
Thanks amazing... you'll already know that when you personalize something that you could earn more so perhaps providing the option to add that personalization at an additional cost would bring you more $$$$$
Yes! Just have to decide if it’s worth the time being such a low price point
One thing I noticed on your website:
A Specific Bookmark that a customer wants is cheaper than the monthly subscription where they get something that they may not want.
Seems a bit backwards.
Thanks for the feedback. The subscription includes shipping which is why it’s more expensive

Really useful and interesting.
I went to look up hueforge and they have different versions. Which one did you purchase to be able to use for selling. Thanks.
I did the $45 option so I could sell prints. If you want to sell the files you’ll need to do the $100 version
thanks@@macymakes3d
Does hugeforge work with resin printers too?
I JUST came up with this idea for myself a week ago or so and thought, woweee I'm being so original!! But alas... :(
Not the best idea. Those bookmarks would certainly leave indentions in the pages over time.
she could print the designs as the bottom layer, but that would require a lot more filament changes, increasing cost + waste
Thanks I have HueForge and dont need chatgp nor Midjourney! As I have the time to take my time. I can see they help yourself time wise though. Laurie. NZ. 😊
well, looks like i'll be looking into hueforge! Per bookmark, are you using just one AMS/4 colors, or do you have multiple AMS units connected?
great tutorial...ty!
I only have one AMS per printer. If it uses more than 4 colors I just add pauses so I can switch out filament from earlier slots. Like if it needs 5 colors I'll add a pause when it's printing in slots 3 or 4 so I can put new filament in slot 1 for color 5 to use. 6 would go in slot 2, 7 in slot 3, and continuing on.
@@macymakes3d understood, makes perfect sense! It sounds like there is a fair amount of babysitting the print?
Do you think you could help me, I'm a disabled vet trying to do this for my kids school. I've watched video a million times..
They look pretty cool! Btw you got a lot of filament haha I can see why throwing filament could trigger people. A see through could be really cool and also other shapes as well , you could even personalize them as well.
The basic version of HueForge says you cant sell what you make with it though
I have the lower tier commercial plan. The $45 one. You can sell prints with that one.
I accidentally find your tutorial and it is really good. This is the first time I know how to change color at which layer height I want. BTW we are using the same 3d printer P1S. Thank you.
Very cool. I need to buy me one
You should buy filament in refill packs, then you won't have the spool trash.
I give my empty spools to my neighbor, who is a kindergarten teacher. They use them for crafts.
Burn the rolls!❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Does illustrator require an Adobe subscription?
Yes sadly
Thorough thank you😊
my A1 comes tomorrow :)
forgive me if this is a stupid question, but why would there NOT be room for you in a category? Etsy doesn't get "full" does it?
If there are too many products in a category, it's much harder to get on the first few pages, so no one will ever see your product. You need to find a category that has a low number of products and high search volume.
@@macymakes3d gotcha. but it's not like etsy says "sorry, category is full, you can't come in". 🤣👊🏻
Lol no they'll gladly let you in
@@macymakes3d ok good haha! i've been having good success with my handmade furniture sales but wanted to start making/selling more small items with my cnc and laser (which i should've been doing before now🤦🏻♂️). Keep up the great work, I just subscribed. I just 3D printed my first thing at my friends house with his Prusa printer...now i'm hooked 🤣
Great video!!! The empty filament rolls should be good for office decor. Hang them on the walls in a nice pattern 😊
