    The real question is how do you get people to *print* your stuff? www.kickstarter.com/projects/3dpprofessor/printablok-battlemecha

    Hi There, just noticed at minute 19:08 Creality Cloud might be the headline to choose 😅. Love to watch more of your content. Greetings from Munich/Bavaria.

      Yeah, I should really fire my editor. But he's just so cheap.

    I'm glad you made this video. I'm still thinking about offering my Z scale model railroad stuff somewhere. As to the 20% that Cults gets, all the places where my ebooks are on sale take 30%. I feel like a percentage is much better than a monthly fee.

    Spitze, genau diese Bewertung fast es sehr Präzise zusammen. Ich nutze auch die meisten der Seiten und vermisste nur eine abschliessende Lieblingsliste ;) Thingi, Cults und Printables sind imho auf dem ersten Platz :D Ich habe mich mit dem verkaufen nicht beschäftigt, weil ich zu schlecht bin. Es fehlt auch der Hinweis darauf das mehrere Seiten untereinander "verbunden" werden könne.💯💯

    good talk! I need to get back to making more 3d printing stuff again, I have been trying to move away from Thingiverse for a long time but I always end up back there for something. I like printables, and I am glad its no longer fully prusa themed. I have tried the others but the models just arent there.

    The search function on printables is still quite poor compared to thingiverse, while thangs often gives way too many irrelevant options.
    Ultimaker seem to be somewhat improving thingiverse over time, though there are still old glitches around and new ones introduced.

    Thanks for posting this! I was just wondering where is a good place to sell 3D models.

  • @sliverbaer

    Great comparisons. I have only posted simple things to printables. As someone that primarily prints and doesn't design, I find posting makes on Printables the best. Cults always seems slower. Thingiverse feels dated. Thangs community pictures seems like an afterthought. No real insensitive to post there.

    Switched from Thingiverse to Printables right when Printables first launched, personally not a big fan of Prusa, but Printables is probably the exception.
    The server is way more stable (at least I don't need to log in every time), the "Prusameters" reward system encourages you to share your makes, and frequent design contests just like the old-time Thingiverse... Tho Cults is still better for paid models.

    A little sidenote on Printables, for selling/premium models you need to have reached level 17 or 18, not from the start

    It's been my experience that Thingiverse is super left leaning and likes to remove content that doesn't lean the same way. I've had a few models pulled after single users have taken offense. The unfiltered comments from the offended are fine but taking down my models is just wrong.

      It's they're playground. They can set whatever rules they want for it. And you have options, so no big.

    What about cgtrader?

    • @3dpprofessor
      @3dpprofessor  Год назад +1

      CGTraider isn't really a repository for 3D *print* files. I go there I mostly find assets for videos and games and whatnot. Anything I get from CGTraider usually needs to be heavily modified before it can be 3D printed in my experience.
      Thus, I don't consider it a vector for discovery in the 3D printing arena.

      Odyssey is a video sharing platform that copies my videos from RUclips on them because I setup with them ages ago. If it even has the ability to host files, I've never heard of it.

    I've heard thingiverse accused of being many things, but "the best" was never one of them.

    • @3dpprofessor
      @3dpprofessor  Год назад

      Partially I made this video because there are still school curriculums that say "download a model on thingiverse" and I wanted to show that there are other options.
      I should make a video about where to *find* 3D models. It'll be pretty short though.
