- A user asked how to morph a few shapes together for 3D printing. After looking at the part, here is a simple solution to Make useful parts for 3D printing FAST using Tinkercad. In Tinkercad, you do not morph as much as grouping and cut parts out with holes. It is pretty easy to make useful things to 3d print with these basic skills though. Have a glorious day and keep Tinkering!

New sub here, finally someone who knows how to explain 3d modelling in a way my brain will accept 🤯. Thank you
The perfect way to start my day @crusher70. Thank you.
Totally agree!!!
I have 0 knowledge about AutoCAD, but I know what it is for. I'm a 3d printer beginner, and I want to learn to design my project so that I'm not taking somebody's design. By watching this, I feel confident that I can accomplish that hehe
That is the exact response I hope for. If you get stuck on your design, feel free to reach out. One of the amazing things about Tinkercad is the ability to collaborate on a design.
@@HLModTechig ?
How has the designing been going? Did you keep up with it?
This guy did in 10 minutes what I've been trying to figure out for hours. Much appreciated!
Super cool @V4Cascade! Love to hear it when there is a success. 👏💯
Wow, just wow! You are amazing at explaining things simply and precisely, I loved watching this, it helped me get a good understanding of cad. I hope everyone enjoys this as much as I did thank you so much for your time
Thanks Shane for the feedback! 👍 Have fun designing and feel free to reach out if you ever have questions.
I'm an absolute beginner and found this tutorial very easy to follow. Thank you!
Fantastic! Thank you for the note. If you are ever looking for more, I have a boat load of tutorials. =)
I have used solidworks and even fusion 360, tinkerCad is limited in a way but your video makes it seem easy and doable, thank you. I see now the limit comes by our own imagination. Great video.
Fantastic! If you ever have questions do not hesitate to reach out. 💯👍
I have been STRUGGLING to produce something similar. What an amazing tutorial and I can NOW FINALLY make the adapters I have been wanting! Thank you so very much!!!!
Super cool Richard! Love to hear it when there is a success. 👏💯 Feel free to reach out if you ever have questions.
I came to this video to learn how to make this literal vent adapter for a inside AC unit. It was a garage sale find but they didn't have the equipment to hook up to the window. 300-400 dollar unit they thought was junk, sold for 45$ and all it needs is a 3in vent outside lol. Will be duplicating and printing my own before too long :D
Love it when a plan comes together.
I just discovered Tinkercad after struggling to create 3D designs in Sketchup. This video is so clear and the instructions easy to follow. Now I can make some adapters for my tools dust extractors. Thank you.
Happy to help. Keep me posted if you’re ever stock. Some of my coolest tutorials are created from user suggestions. 💯👍
This has been so helpful! Thank you so much for everything you do!
Perfect way to start my day. Thank you. 💯👍
I really appreciate this video. I've been watching dozens of videos to learn tips. Your breakdown was by far the best and the include keyboard button reference was very helpful. Keep up the great work!
The perfect way to start my day @monk913. Thank you. Feel free to reach out if you ever have questions. 💯👍
Great tutorial. I learned several tricks and shortcuts I was unaware of.
Groovy! Thanks for taking time to shoot me a note. 👍
I have only recently got into modelling and have stumbled across your video series. Great work and very easy to follow. Thanks for the upload and keep up the great work :)
Hello from Australia!
Sweet! After years of teaching in a classroom, I find it so cool to have my lessons being useful worldwide! Have a wonderful weekend.
Amazing. That seems very easy to follow. Thanks grate video and information. 👍
Thank you. I appreciate you taking time to let me know as well. 💯👍
Nicely done. Trying to leverage TinkerCad more for my 3D printing. I used it originally to rough design the inside of my van conversion laying out all the cabinets, seating and bedding!
Thank you and that is super cool. Did you see my Shoutout of the E450 by James Tampa? Reminds me of you modeling your van layout. 💯👍 ruclips.net/video/4rWZiFGR0Ww/видео.html Thanks for the note!
Great job with such a chill voice!
Thanks a lot :)
My pleasure. I appreciate you taking time to drop me a note too!
thank you for this!! I have learned so much from this video! I have never known how to use those other tools listed by the import button but now I do! thank you for this helpful video! keep up the content!

Outstanding tutorial and I learned some useful tools for aligning too! Subscribed
Awesome, thank you!
Thank you for this video.
I haven't tried doing it yet, but this is the kind of content I needed to get me started.
Glad it was helpful! Feel free to reach out if you have questions. A lot of my favorite projects start with user questions.
I had previously used Solidworks but chose to use TinkerCad because of the very simple approach.
I made filament prints for work because big and blocky were okay.
But I have been able to design very intricate scale model railway models for resin printing and I am astounded at the level of detail that is captured in TinkerCad. Thank you for this tutorial!
Super cool @kjamison5951! Love to hear it when there is a success. 👏💯
Fantastic to-the-point video! I was able to 3d print exactly what I needed just based on this video!
Perfect! Thank you so much for sharing. 💯🔥
New sub, Only watched this 1 video, having just started with 3d design & printing, and your way of explaining etc made it really easy and instand sub, great job, thanks.
Awesome, thank you! Feel free to reach out if you have more questions. Some of the coolest things I create start with questions from viewers.
loving these videos so helpful thanks
Makes my day to hear that! Thanks @tonyjones5788. 💯👍
This video was just what I needed to get startet, just got a 3d printer today.
I made a living working in Autocad more than 25 years ago - but man, CAD is a different story today, haha :-)
Thanks for getting me going.
Awesome Christian! I appreciate the feedback and feel free to reach out if you are ever stuck. 😊

Super cool Jackson! Love to hear it when there is a success. 👏💯
This is by far the best tutorial I’ve ever seen. :)
Makes my day to hear that! Thanks @TreyVal. 💯👍 Feel free to reach out if you ever have questions.
HL you the man! I'm new to 3d printing and was having trouble with some hydroponic grow towers from Thingiverse. I knew what I needed but didn't want to spring for the software and after hitting dead ends with Sketchup I found Tinkercad is free and import export STL is free, great but I still couldn't fix the leaks until I found your channel. This vid is getting bookmarked and revisited for sure. I thought I'd be able to just modify portions of the STL in size but after learning from this tutorial I realized adding to the existing model was the way to go and did so successfully. I'm subscribing and looking forward to going through your channel. Thank you!!
Glad you had success and thanks for the note! Tinkercad is so cool for stuff like you described. Just slap a "patch" on, export and print. I have made a ton of parts throughout the years that were ugly as sin... but worked. =) Have fun and feel free to reach out if you ever have questions.
@@HLModTech Cool.. Bought an flsun v400 and kind of learning by trial and error. I may take you up on the offer. Thanks brother!

Great tutorial - thank you very much!
Thanks! Glad it was useful. 👍
@@HLModTech I know you are an 8th grade teacher but I will be 59 this year and was looking for easy to follow tutorials to learn this remarkable software. I have 3d printed for 5 years and never learned tinkercad to do much. I can now make personal things other than using other peoples models. I wish I had been able to learn this in school when I was young.
@@BriansModelTrains Thanks Brian. Always makes my day when I hear that learning is going on. 💯👍 If you ever have request do not hesitate to drop me a line.
Great tutorial 💪
Glad you think so! Feel free to reach out if you have a request.
This is easier for me than fusion 360 😂😂😂😂 thank you friend 🙌🏾
100% agree! Thanks for the note. I have a blast with Tinkercad. This fun sign has been really popular lately. ruclips.net/video/jx_mDNeCslM/видео.html

@@HLModTech Always an honour Sir
Awesome Very good job
Thanks @BlackpeeramaMenKier! 👍 That is my most watched video.
Brilliant :)
Appreciate that. =) Have a great week!
Excellent video for learning Tinkercad. I use Fusion 360, but my grandson wants to learn to design things too. I really was not sure where to start with Tinkercad until I saw this video, so thank you!. I also saw your video on creating a youth login, which will be very handy. I have subscribed to your channel so I can learn more. When my grandson is ready, I will have him subscribe also.
Makes my day to hear that. I have a ton of fun using Tinkercad. Feel free to reach out if you are hunting for ideas for the youngsters creations. =)
@@HLModTech Thank you! This all started when he (7 yr old) wanted to make something to go with an existing wood toy from Home Depot. I showed him how we need to first measure the existing toy using a digital calipers. The next morning he had everything measured and drawn on paper by the time I got up! I don't know where this will go, but I will try to keep challenging him. So we may need your creation ideas!
I believe Tinkercad allows designing for fun as much as functionality. =) Check out this jet. ruclips.net/video/BXvPXSbEuMU/видео.html
Worthy of a subscribe
💯🔥 thank you!
I love tinkercad, I've done a lot in it. I do lack knowledge of these keyboard shortcuts though.
Thanks @cdlord80 for the feedback! 👍 The shortcuts are a favorite of mine. Designing with 2 hands makes creation so much more efficient.
Nice!
My pleasure torque. Thank you for the feedback! 👍💯
This is one of the best videos, it shows how to do so many things in one video, I wasn't aware of the auto centering, I wasn't aware you could choose wall thickness, I would do a solid object and copy and paste and make the copy a lil smaller and turn it into a hole for a cylinder, but how do I get a true round object, seems all my round edges become flat the bigger the cylinder I make,
Thanks for the kind words. The main Tinkercad cylinder will smooth out a bit when you slide the sides up to 64. I do it pretty quickly in this video. ruclips.net/video/CrEn9LD01gM/видео.html Thanks again for watching and feel free to reach out if you have questions.
Thankyou mario
The perfect way to start my day @user-tz8hu7xv6g. Thank you and have a wonderful weekend!
@@HLModTech welcome sir
Thanx 👍 subbed
My pleasure @burstfireno1617. Thank you for the note! 👍💯
Thank you I just got tinkercad and learned some stuff
Makes my day to hear that! Thanks @Printed_things. 💯👍
@@HLModTech I’m also wondering what should I design in tinkercad
Any lessons in this playlist are great for brand-new Tinkercad users. ruclips.net/p/PLRXLS33csRK7qasevs577eQMloptAVVm_ This video shows how to search my channel for a single term, like car or plane. bit.ly/findhl
If you are stuck, you are welcome to ask too. I have like 4700 videos up there... I likely have something that will be useful to you. =)
@@HLModTech alr thanks
Thanks Mario.
Lol. :-) Heard that a bit back when I was teaching middle school too.
I just finished telling someone how horrible tinkercad is, you make it seem good
Makes my day to hear that! Thanks Do's Don't. 💯👍 With a little practice you make some really cool stuff. You can also just have fun with it. ruclips.net/video/_XIHUUmHWLE/видео.html
This is exactly what I was looking for! It's like you read my mind a couple of years ago! 😂
Makes my day to hear that @chrishewlet5471 👍 Thinking back, it was user suggested... which is one of my favorite ways to create content. Thanks for the note!
@@HLModTech That was some excellent suggestion back then. This video shows anyone out there how to fab ub anything you could possibly need in just a few minutes.
Sure was! Thinking back, I made that in a hotel room on vacation. Is it good karma that my most popular video was created when I should have been chilling. 🤔
@@HLModTech Haha, I suppose so. It does seem like you have put a ton of work in your channel, you've got videos to cover pretty much anything. For me this one video is what has made me dust off my printers again and now I'll start designing some much needed parts. I bought my first 3D printer (Anet A8) back in 2016, added an Ultimaker 6 months later and an SLA printer after that. They have all been collecting dust in a shed since I have been busy with other interests. But it's time to blow new life into them. Thanks again.
great video
Makes my day to hear that! Thanks @mrashford7927. 💯👍
Liked and subscribed
Greatly appreciated. 👍 Feel free to reach out if you ever have questions.
Wow - just found your channel after getting my first 3d printer and I learned so much. Thank you! Is there a place I could download this design that you made?
Welcome aboard. There is not a place to download it, but that vid shows you how to make in about 10 minutes. That way it will fit what you really are using it for. Since you are just starting out, lessons in this playlist are great for brand-new Tinkercad users. ruclips.net/p/PLRXLS33csRK7qasevs577eQMloptAVVm_
yoo thanks man! I gotta make a house for my french project.
I have several types of house tutorials. Did you track one down?
@@HLModTech Yup!
Well done. Feel free to reach out if you have questions.
Brill! 👍
First time I have heard that comment! 💯🥰 Thanks. Sure am hoping it is short for brilliant... 😜
@@HLModTech it is! Just got my first 3d printer and having a good historical knowledge/understanding of Autocad and SketchUp thought it would be a relatively simple step up....I'm only a dabbler and so now only use the free version of SketchUp for modelling onscreen. I've only just discovered that what is, and looks like, a perfectly solid group is actually not (SketchUp) and that to locate and rectify was, for me, impossible. Also I then discover that the ability to save/export an stl file has be removed and placed within the paid version which is way above what I need and could justify paying. Having previously used Tinkercad to teach a young child basic electronic circuits I then, very briefly, tried the modelling tools and immediately thought it was way too simple/basic for what I needed (I wrongly believed Tinkercad was a school tool for youngsters because I hadn't given sufficient time to look around the GUI). I was left thinking I would now have to learn Blender from scratch which deflated the hell out of me.....whilst browsing for relevant YT blender vids one of your 'titles' grabbed my attention and, well, here we are.....just goes to show how easy it is to completely miss the value of something because of the absence of a simple introduction or guide. Thank you so much! 👍😁🏴
awesome video man! you helped me a lot designing my first thing in cad. i have a question though im working on something that needs precise holes for mounting a light into. its a simple design just a flat square with 4 holes in each corners for screws and a large circular hole in the center for the wires to come through it but i need 2 holes on each side of the larger hole perfectly spaced so the light will mount to it.
Thanks for the kudos! Sounds like the ruler tool is what will assist you most. I usually skip it and use nudge. As a math teacher I just do the math for the location... I will see if I can whip up a video to add precise holes this morning.
@@HLModTech wow thanks man! I'm looking forward to seeing it. Your how to videos are the best I've seen on tinkercad I've learned more from a few of your videos that I have from 30+ minute long videos from others.
Thanks! I am always trying to squeeze as much in the shortest time possible. Teaching middle schoolers has me always trying to hit the sweet spot for their attention spans. =)
Great tutorial and impressive to watch. Thumbs up!
Thanks! That one sure does get a lot of views. 🤯
Nice Stache
lol. Thanks for stopping by!
Nuevo sub bro fue de mucha ayuda aún que no se como escribir en inglés pero si puedo entender todo lo que dices
Super cool @Lapollita905! Love to hear it when there is a success. 👏💯 Even more awesome that we are working in different languages. 💯🔥
Great video. Friend :D
Thank you! Cheers!
Im getting into 3d printing and tried fusion 360....what a mess to learn. I was expecting something more like this. Looks so much more intuitive. Thanks for the vid
Awesome Apocraphon tripp! If you ever have questions, let me know. 👍
Fusion 360 and TinkerCAD are owned by the same company and the controls are effectively the same, but Fusion360 is a much more powerful tool
useful
Glad you think so! Thanks for the note too!
This is a great video. I have two changes to this exact item but don't know how to do it. How do I make the base into an arc so that I can attach it to the side of a bucket? How do I rotate or slant the tube portion of this so when I connect an inlet hose to the bucket, it creates a centrifuge to rotate the dust on the way in from the vacuum...(bucket dust collector attachment is what I'm trying to make). Any help you can provide would be great. Thank you.
Thank you for the kudos. If you are willing, shoot me some images of the setup. You can reach me at hlmodtech gmail. It will help me give a better strategy for creating your part.
I'd have suggest caliper measurements of the screw holes and distance from the end lol cause yours are in 2 seperate places but the rest perfect .. Measure twice reprint only 10x that way
Good eye! I think I heard that from my shop teacher back in the day as well. 😜
Thanks for the tutorial! I just got a 3d printer, and learning new design programs is tough! Especially since I only have a chromebook to work on and can't get cad or fusion 360. (P.s. Are you the guy that did voice-overs for Sketchup for Schools tutorials because your voice sounds just like it!)
Yes, that is me in the Sketchup videos. I have them here on this channel as well. Glad you are digging the tutorials. I reccomend having some fun with TInkercad, then moving on to creating thigns for printing. I sneak a ton of basic skills in this car tutorial. ruclips.net/video/bIGM4MGLKE8/видео.html
You are welcome to reach out if you ever have request or questions.
nice
My pleasure Jakub. Thank you for the feedback! 👍💯
Great instructional video! A question regarding outer wall thickness: I designed in Tinkercad and printed, essentially, a funnel to replace the original poor flowing one on my aquarium gravel vacuum tube. It's sort of 3 pieces grouped together. I made the walls 2mm thick for strength and made them 2mm in the slicer. Yet the first one, when I dropped it, it came apart at the joins. I ended up putting 4mm rings at the joins to ensure that didn't happen again. Is 2mm about right? Is it common for such things to be weak at the joints? I used PETG - 235' nozzle, bed 70'
Thank you. The 2mm in the slicer will not grow your model to achieve that thickness. What it does it take a part that is solid in your design and print it with 2mm walls. A great question. I think I ought to make a video about it. Thanks for the nudge. Adding the rings in those areas is pretty slick. It is like adding a fillet for strength. 👍 Thanks again for the reaching out.
Now if you could teach us how to make the cut out inside curves of the paraboloid 45° so that it can be 3D printed with no support. 👍 I'm pretty sure can be done with some very complicated math that I personally can't get my head around. But if there's some tool or tips that I don't know about that would be awesome.
That design does print without supports. 45° is the max angle that people usually 3D print at. The slope of that paraboloid should be less than that so it should print pretty well. When mine was done I just scraped of anything that was not clean. Sanding would even make it better. Even though I taught math (middle school) for 6 years... I still went with guess and check for all the info above. =)
@@HLModTech Yeah I meant for any 3d modeling with tinkercad not just that model only =)
New tutorial for making a print in place car just rolled out. ruclips.net/video/imO-8w-1ejQ/видео.html
Awesome tutorial!! I haven't checked your others but my only request is you slow down a bit.... maybe a smidge more explanation. I understand you are trying to get to the point and not make an hour video, but I loved learning it was just a little hard. I will be checking out your other content and again I loved the video!!!!
Thanks for the kudos. =-) Sorry about the speed... Any lessons in this playlist are great for brand-new Tinkercad users. ruclips.net/p/PLRXLS33csRK7qasevs577eQMloptAVVm_ They will be a bit slower. If there is a specific design request... let me know. Some of the coolest things I create start with questions from viewers.
Hello, any idea, how to make an eccentric circular reduction for example kitchen hood? Centric is easy, but eccentric? Still trying...
Let me do some looking. If you shoot me a email, I can share a project with you. hlmodtech gmail.
I'm new to tinkercad I was wondering if you could show or if you already have a video that you can point me to how to put pointed gears in the end of a cylinder thanks in advance looking forward for your response
When you say pointed gears... do you mean like this? ruclips.net/user/shortsoT7NcxX3pHg Sorry for the delay too. No idea why I did not spot this earlier.
