Flawed Comment... Nintendo Switch 2 accessories will have 3D prints as well, you contradicted what he meant. I get it's meant to be a "joke" but it doesn't make logical sense from his context.
Fun fact: 3D printing has been around since the 80s however it only started seeing public use relatively recently due to improvements in the technology.
Dude this is one of the coolest videos you've done. It's so insightful and opens up so many ideas. I knew 3D printing was cool but you've really shown just how creative it can be! That's amazing 👏
@@BeatEmUps Definitely share more videos of your 3D Printer Obsession. I am thinking about getting my first 3D printer and would love to learn from your journeys!
O lord. This is a rabbit-hole of a hobby. My son went to a '3D printing Camp' this past summer. And what we didn't realize was they got to keep the printer (a Creality Ender V3 KE) after the camp. This lead us to months later having a *WALL* of shelves with spools and him going every weekend to the farmer's market selling his prints. I'm proud of him and his new hustle, but I got sucked into the vortex of 3D printing with him. I repaired a printer about a decade ago, and fell out of the hobby because the quality was just awful even when 'best'. The way these have evolved in just the last couple years is amazing. Looking to get a Bambu printer for _our_ second printer for thew holidays.
now i really want a consumer filament recycler that everyone can buy so we reduce plastic waste on failed prints. and my prints with an Ender 3 v2 fail often... lol
There are a lot of technical problems with filament recycling - including the fact that unfortunately plastic degrades whenever it is re-melted to recycle. The print quality and strength of the recycled filament will be worse than the original. I am hoping that we will come up with better ways to recycle it in the future, but it's not an easy problem to solve. Also - yeah, Ender 3s aren't known to be high quality printers. Creality has a bit of work to do to catch up to Bambu and Prusa. I think the v3 models are okay, though? Haven't seen a lot of information on their reliability.
when I say recycling Is also mean like commercially biodegrade it because I guess I've heard it takes too long and bigger processes then the standard persons compost.
@@ladyamberskye Yeah, that's the case with PLA. Most other materials don't even have that as an option. Plastic recycling, composting, biodegrading, etc - is its own rabbit hole, filled with pain and suffering. But if you really want a place to send filament to - look up Printerior in the USA, or Recycling Fabrik in Europe. You will need to make sure everything is sorted out by color and material.
I don't 3D print, but I agree with this! I love seeing how creative people are with their 3D printers, but it's a trial and error as you can see in this video and literally any other 3D printing video lol. I saw a video of a woman trying to make filament with plastic bottles or something so that's also cool
Or just make different segments so that the channel he already built can push the idea. Starting a whole new channel doesn't fully make sense unless you open another channel with a person. Financially it don't make sense
19:18 *safe if you manage the dangers well, such as dealing with the fumes (VOC and PM2.5), and not touching the hot bits. So, it's a bit like soldering in that way.
fumes are almost nonexistent if you print with PLA only. Also I think his model has a filter for the enclosure? It's definitely possible for him to print PETG or ABS
Simple? Yes. Affordable? No. I’ll definitely have to wait a while longer for these things to go down a bit in price before picking up this hobby. Honestly, the combination between the device, materials, buying designs, and then modifying them for your printer specifically makes me feel so overwhelmed. However, I totally enjoyed watching this and the whole process in general, as always this was fun to watch. EDIT: Thank everyone for their great suggestions. I definitely do know it's not as expensive as it first was, but I'm disabled on SSI (a little over $900 a month) and my dad's the only one working, back then I only got like $100 a month) so when I got into gaming a few years back it took me several months to come up with both the console price and a game. But thank everyone here for their awesome suggestions below! I haven't looked at the prices in a while so who knows, maybe one day I can go for one, just not on top of my list right now. 😊
a 3D printer is not more expensive the a gaming console or a PC..Actually there are 3D printers that are half the price of a PS5 or even cheaper. I bought one 3 years ago for $250, still works great :)
You're overthinking it, man. This is coming from someone with 3 printers. As long as you take care of your equipment and play with the settings, you'll be fine. A single roll of material can last you weeks once you have your settings in that sweet spot.
you can get a single color Bambu A1 mini for 200. (350 for the multi color combo, can be added later) Same quality as in this video just smaller. Still subjective affordability I guess, but they are getting better
@@RepzeyOfficial That's kinda my problem, I'm on SSI with a tight budget so it takes a long time to save up for something. Took me me several months to buy a Nintendo Switch and a game for it. Kind of embarrassing...😅 unfortunately what's cheap for others is sometimes more kind of out of range for me, especially if it's just a hobby I do ever once in a while vs something I do all the time, like draw. I have to consider if making it would be cheaper or buying something to make it is cheaper in the long run. Thank you so much for the advice though! I got into Wood's channel years ago and haven't even bought a game for over a year, but just stuck around and enjoyed it.
I love this video! I got into 3D printing 2 years ago and it has been a blast. You will never stop finding fun things to make. I have printed a life-size buster sword from FF7!! Also wearable Iron Man and Spider-Man helmets, lots of organizational stuff (look up gridfinity and hex wall), useful things like tool mounts, cookie cutters, and more. I even designed a Mario block gender reveal box for my best friend and printed it! Please keep this content coming!!
8:11 Floating like that it can print; it’s called bridging and most printers can do it. The P1S (what you have) is quite good at it because of the aux cooling fan on the side of the printer. You probably didn’t need them, but it will turn out a little cleaner with supports.
The journey down the rabbit whole begins. I've been printing for a year or 2 and I always find new stuff to print and learn. You're catching on fast! Keep up the good work!
I printed myself one of those cup holder things (although I modified it so it has actual grips) and unironically use it and love it. It’s the perfect size for a can, I just put a straw in it and bam.
Resin has definitely gotten easier to work with in the last couple of years, but the resin itself is still a pain, it's still amazing stuff, but the smell/fumes and temperature temperature issues are a thing to consider. Also, idk about anyone else, but I could never get down manual supports.
This whole video has been more about Wood saying, "look what I made!" To his wife, and her validating his accomplishments with praise and positive reinforcement. I wish I had what they have. 😢
The P1S is such a good choice. For cost reasons I went for the A1 and its amazing. I've been 3d printing for about 7 years now and it's basically plug and play. The jump is sick. (Also if you want to print models like the little link figurine, filament is not suuuuuper the right choice. Resin is where detail REALLY shines. HMU if you want to get into details ;) )
3d printing the perfect hobby to feed all your other addictions.... Nintendo switch, boardgame/tabletop gaming, useful storage solution, etc..... Also much safer than using a drill :-) which we know you aren't allowed to use anymore.
I love 3D printing! I have upgraded tons of board game and video game storage with it. Granted, I dont have the $ or space to own one myself, but my local library prints for free. It takes 1-2 weeks per print, so I need to be a little selective. But it's free so I'm not complaining!
This video reminded me of when I started with the 3D printing hobby a little over 10 years ago. It was much more complicated back then, with calibration and all the technical aspects, but it was very rewarding and fun. Welcome to the world of 3D printing, where there are no limits!
I've got 7 bambu printers, and have used many others. You are doing fine. Honestly Bambu are one of the easiest printers to calibrate and use. Which isn't a bad thing. More time printing and less time trouble shooting. Just when it comes time to change out the belts...oof. My least favorite maintenance. Stock up on elmers glue sticks and lithium greese. The glue sticks are kind of just in case, some material likes to curl up on the edges even on the textured PEI bed, small layer of gluestick fixes that problem most of the time. Your printer will tell you when the lead screws need grease.
Whoa, how often do Bambu printers need a belt change? I still have a Prusa Mk2.5s with belts that are at this point 8 years old, I really don't let it rest, and it still has original belts and prints absolutely reliably.
@@katerinachuranova8435 not that often. I was having issues with one of my machines, something was squeaky and driving me nuts because none of the others were doing it. Most of the maintenance I've done to any of the printers is grease and change out the nozzles. My point was the belts are a pain to change if you need to.
Rec room is one of my favorite games of all time in vr. It’s such a charming game and the community is amazing. I’ve made so many friends in real life that I became closer with because of rec room and I love it so much
There is a product to take your cast off plastic and recycle it. If nothing else, it would probably make good test prints or supports. Plus, I’ve seen people make filament out of plastic bottles.
It's still really impractical if you don't have fiddling with such a machine as another hobby. I really want a filament recycler, but the technology is not ready yet.
glad you joined the club!!! printers have jumped in easiness a ton now. you did a few mistakes but learnt and fixed them so great job! If you ever dare you should test an ender v2 or some cheaper printer and see how far we have come in the hobby but you may suffer a bit too much 😅 I just started 3d printing a rc car to build with my kid so lots of possibilities in the hobby
You can recycle the filament scraps. I think there’s a way to do it yourself, but places like Printerior have you sent it in and can get recycled filament back for a fee.
Bambulab really brought 3D printing to the masses. If you buy a second AMS, it comes with 4 empty spools. Also you can print em or buy some from the bambu store.
I have been in to 3d printing for over 5 years now. I mostly do 3d printed foam dart blasters and nerf gun upgrades. Its a great hobby just can get expensive with upgrades to the printer and filimint depending on what you go with. Just keep it up my friend. Definitely have one of the best printers on the market to.
just a tip for every 3d printer owner!!! i really like that some brands take the spools back to reuse them as well as the support material, they will shred it und give you a discount for your next purchase or give you material you can use again, so nothing goes to waste
Fun fact, these machines could have started being made in the 90s! But in the 80's stratsys filed for patents that locked us all out of being allowed to do stuff like this, and then proceeded to do basically nothing with 3d printing in the consumer space until their patents expired. Even today Statasys holds numerous patents on 3d printing technologies that hold the industry back.
Now you're a craft channel.. you are just so versatile. Go print something romantic for Kim, or do something like a Zelda diorama.. take it to the next level and buy an airbrush :D
I have DEFINITELY been waiting for this video, so it has renewed my interest in my 3D printer (Ender 3 v2 Neo). I am also definitely using the SKADIS file to hang my amiiboo figures on my wall.
Hey Just wanted to add some info about the history of 3d printing and why its only now seemingly to get popular. It was originally invented in 1983 with rough but working machines but until the early 2000s it was patented and gatekept. The big thing that changed was There was someone who made the first open source (basically meaning made publicly useable) 3d printer so many people and company's started to make them. For many years all of the 3dprinters being made often required alot of fixing and tinkering to get it to produce anything decent and it still struggled with most things under perfect conditions Until in 2018 a company called Creality released the first Cheap yet reliable 3d printer on the market which had a huge impact on the community and grew it massively and today many companies still make knock off versions of it because it was so good. Since the breakthrough which was the ender 3 the market has gotten much better and now we have printers like the X1c from bambu lab which automates mostly everything and makes it almost as easy as a microwave
Since I have been doing a lot of 3d printing for a while, and got the X1 carbon, I want to give you a little advice, You can actually tune thee settings, To both make prints overall a bit faster, use less filament, but also, you can tune it so it 'poops' less, and the like if you are willing to go through the effort, That being said, Don't worry about it if you don't want too, as learrning how to fine tune it for all that is part of the learnning experience and you will get it eventually. I would suggest making custom filament profiles though that use "Long retraction" and cut, as well as reducing purge amounts, But, the newest version of Bambu studio apparently has already done things to help with that, at least when it comes to using its own filaments.
use modeling clay at the back of the keys to weigh them down. If they're not holow on the underside try drilling them out. Could also drop in magnets maybe. Drill out the back than put one magnet on the bottom and one on the key. make it so they attract so they pull back at each other which will fix the dropping key.
I've had the same printer for around 6 months and an Elegoo N4 pro a little longer. As others have said, you can print your own spools. You can actually print the Bambu reusable ones too. The file is on maker world. And can even be found on the SD card that came with the P1S.
As for 3D printing existing in the 90s: Someone had patents on it, and those only ran out a couple of years ago. That's why it wasn't a thing much sooner already.
I got into 3d printing at the beginning of the pandemic and have been loving it. It's a great activity I can do with my son and there are loads of great use cases. I'll say also, the hobby has come a LONG way and it's easier than ever to get started. The Bumbu Labs A1 and A1 mini are fantastic for anyone getting into it for the first time - and at a great price point. For people with more 💵💰, the version Wood got (PS1, I think?) is great. One piece of advice: get whichever printer you can _also_ afford the AMS (automatic material switcher) for. Even if you don't print in multicolor, you'll save yourself manually swapping materials *between* prints and you can always have four filament colors loaded up and ready to go. Wood: I'm so glad you made this video. I feel seen 😅 and I'm excited for more people to join the hobby! 🎉
Love the video, I am always drawn to these creative designs. And this video certainly made me appreciate the merchants who would sell nice 3D prints at a low price more. But also stops me (again) from buying an actual printer myself after the 3D printing course I took in college 8 years ago. Printing half of my finals for 25 hours straight was not fun at all (and the other half cut from a laser printer which was very fire harzardous and has to be forced shut down when the fire alarm went off because some fool decided to smoke inside the art building). And thanks for reminding me the almost forgotten pain of doing it.
Dude this was so much fun, please make more of these! You could print a bunch of Pokemon leading up to the Pokemon LZA release, or build an animal crossing town, or more switch accessories (there's literally thousands of files, just make sure you're crediting the creators if you're using free stuff, don't want to get sued 😂) you could make custom shells for game consoles if you use the right filament. Super stoked for you!
Your such a really good RUclipsr I watched a lot of your videos when I was younger when u went to Japan it was a lot of fun thanks for making my childhood❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@BeatEmUps btws you can 3d print the spools and you can melt the waste to re use it again. just felt to point that out as its a really handy thing and i may have a problem about waste of any kind lol
The point of the spool refills is to save on waste plastic, the cost is just a bonus/incentive. You will go straight back after seeing how many spools are laying around after a few days of printing. Was going to mention you didn't need 100% infill, but I saw your timelapse, and I don't know how you got through the better part of a kilogram on one mid-sized project like that. Unless they're selling you 700g or 500g spools?
WOOD! If your printer doesn't already have a hardened nozzle you will want to get one for using the GITD filament. It will straight up GAPE a brass nozzle. I love seeing people discover how much fun 3D printing is.
Its funny How you mention How 3d Printing hasnt been a thing for long, well its easy. 3D Printing was worked on in the 90's but the first commercially avilable Printer was released in 2006. It just "recently" became Popular due to the Cost and ease of use.
Wood Hawker and Nintendo Switch accessories are synonymous in my brain now. Also you influenced me to get little game grips for my switch joycons. Makes Mario Party Jamboree and other joycon games much more enjoyable! Also I'm with Kim. 3D printing is crafting. I'm a crafter with clay and needle felt. We are the same lol
Welcome to the hobbie, I've had my printer for only a couple months but I've fallen in love with it. I've been making mostly cosplay stuff and the experience of making stuff is so much fun
love your enthusiasm! please make more videos like this. I'd recommend printing useful stuff like proprietary repair parts for things you value. your coffee maker spills water during the making? design (like in fusion360) a riser and fix this. you keep misplacing your remotes? print a holder for them and put them in. Also: you can print front plates for your switch dock with multi color prints now if you want to.
Buying it without the spool is something that is nice for once you have gone through a spool or two already and have an empty one already. That way you save money and the plastic spool isn't going to waste after being used only once. I don't think they intend for it to be an option where you are constantly swapping colors off a spool.
I've been interested into 3D printing, but not enough to actually look into machine options or anything. Have read that the plastic scraps can be recycled back into other projects. For the Labo stuff, I bet you could easily do small springs to cause the keys to go back to where they should after pressing them.

Also, my most recent print is the "High Speed Propeller Launcher" on maker world. It's really cool, it shoots plastic propellers at 18000 rpm.
Whoa, how often do Bambu printers need a belt change? I still have a Prusa Mk2.5s with belts that are at this point 8 years old, I really don't let it rest, and it still has original belts and prints absolutely reliably.
@@katerinachuranova8435 not that often. I was having issues with one of my machines, something was squeaky and driving me nuts because none of the others were doing it. Most of the maintenance I've done to any of the printers is grease and change out the nozzles. My point was the belts are a pain to change if you need to.
Rec room is one of my favorite games of all time in vr. It’s such a charming game and the community is amazing. I’ve made so many friends in real life that I became closer with because of rec room and I love it so much
Amazing how Wood got into crafting and almost immediately became a god at it. Now I want to 3D print too!
There is a product to take your cast off plastic and recycle it. If nothing else, it would probably make good test prints or supports. Plus, I’ve seen people make filament out of plastic bottles.
It's still really impractical if you don't have fiddling with such a machine as another hobby. I really want a filament recycler, but the technology is not ready yet.
Love the Scott pilgrim at the back
glad you joined the club!!!
printers have jumped in easiness a ton now. you did a few mistakes but learnt and fixed them so great job!
If you ever dare you should test an ender v2 or some cheaper printer and see how far we have come in the hobby
but you may suffer a bit too much 😅
I just started 3d printing a rc car to build with my kid so lots of possibilities in the hobby
Print the switch 2 ( you know you want to )
Would love to find the files for that.
You can recycle the filament scraps. I think there’s a way to do it yourself, but places like Printerior have you sent it in and can get recycled filament back for a fee.
Bambulab really brought 3D printing to the masses.
If you buy a second AMS, it comes with 4 empty spools.
Also you can print em or buy some from the bambu store.
I have been in to 3d printing for over 5 years now. I mostly do 3d printed foam dart blasters and nerf gun upgrades. Its a great hobby just can get expensive with upgrades to the printer and filimint depending on what you go with. Just keep it up my friend. Definitely have one of the best printers on the market to.
wait till he learns not everthing can be made with a 3d printer
Well, the Nintendo Switch is near the end of its life cycle, and he didn't say ANYTHING about not buying Switch 2 accessories.
That tv 📺 3d print was absolutely perfection
just a tip for every 3d printer owner!!!
i really like that some brands take the spools back to reuse them as well as the support material, they will shred it und give you a discount for your next purchase or give you material you can use again, so nothing goes to waste
It's easy with an expensive machine, having a cheap one makes it an adventure to configure every piece you wanna print xD
Fun fact, these machines could have started being made in the 90s! But in the 80's stratsys filed for patents that locked us all out of being allowed to do stuff like this, and then proceeded to do basically nothing with 3d printing in the consumer space until their patents expired. Even today Statasys holds numerous patents on 3d printing technologies that hold the industry back.
Now you're a craft channel.. you are just so versatile. Go print something romantic for Kim, or do something like a Zelda diorama.. take it to the next level and buy an airbrush :D
At least you're honest about using other people's designs 😅
I have DEFINITELY been waiting for this video, so it has renewed my interest in my 3D printer (Ender 3 v2 Neo). I am also definitely using the SKADIS file to hang my amiiboo figures on my wall.
That was awesome! I'm so down to watch more of you learning to 3D print more stuff and watch you evolve your craft! That was so fun.
Hey Just wanted to add some info about the history of 3d printing and why its only now seemingly to get popular. It was originally invented in 1983 with rough but working machines but until the early 2000s it was patented and gatekept. The big thing that changed was There was someone who made the first open source (basically meaning made publicly useable) 3d printer so many people and company's started to make them. For many years all of the 3dprinters being made often required alot of fixing and tinkering to get it to produce anything decent and it still struggled with most things under perfect conditions Until in 2018 a company called Creality released the first Cheap yet reliable 3d printer on the market which had a huge impact on the community and grew it massively and today many companies still make knock off versions of it because it was so good. Since the breakthrough which was the ender 3 the market has gotten much better and now we have printers like the X1c from bambu lab which automates mostly everything and makes it almost as easy as a microwave
These accessories videos are the best 🤘🏽
Since I have been doing a lot of 3d printing for a while, and got the X1 carbon, I want to give you a little advice, You can actually tune thee settings, To both make prints overall a bit faster, use less filament, but also, you can tune it so it 'poops' less, and the like if you are willing to go through the effort, That being said, Don't worry about it if you don't want too, as learrning how to fine tune it for all that is part of the learnning experience and you will get it eventually. I would suggest making custom filament profiles though that use "Long retraction" and cut, as well as reducing purge amounts, But, the newest version of Bambu studio apparently has already done things to help with that, at least when it comes to using its own filaments.
OMG, please put spamwave presenting news inside that little TV box to complete the look, I need to watch it 😂 9:39
I loved this video very much. I can tell you put so much effort and time into it. I'd love a series off of the 3D printing ❤
That piano seems like an easy fix to me, just toss a counter weight to the end of the keys so they auto pop back up after you press them
use modeling clay at the back of the keys to weigh them down. If they're not holow on the underside try drilling them out. Could also drop in magnets maybe. Drill out the back than put one magnet on the bottom and one on the key. make it so they attract so they pull back at each other which will fix the dropping key.
Really cool video! I think it be cool to have this start up a new series for what weird or whacky prints youve made.
Lol! got bit by the print bug have you? I print loads of stuff on my Ender 3 printer and its amazing! (Idea for print: Zelda EOW map)
I find it so funny how Kim seems more concerned with every 3d printed wood pulls out.😂😂
I think you could print those "Skadis" boards with interlocking edges so you can build a big pegboard.
I've had the same printer for around 6 months and an Elegoo N4 pro a little longer. As others have said, you can print your own spools. You can actually print the Bambu reusable ones too. The file is on maker world. And can even be found on the SD card that came with the P1S.
As for 3D printing existing in the 90s: Someone had patents on it, and those only ran out a couple of years ago. That's why it wasn't a thing much sooner already.
I got into 3d printing at the beginning of the pandemic and have been loving it. It's a great activity I can do with my son and there are loads of great use cases. I'll say also, the hobby has come a LONG way and it's easier than ever to get started. The Bumbu Labs A1 and A1 mini are fantastic for anyone getting into it for the first time - and at a great price point. For people with more 💵💰, the version Wood got (PS1, I think?) is great. One piece of advice: get whichever printer you can _also_ afford the AMS (automatic material switcher) for. Even if you don't print in multicolor, you'll save yourself manually swapping materials *between* prints and you can always have four filament colors loaded up and ready to go.
Wood: I'm so glad you made this video. I feel seen 😅 and I'm excited for more people to join the hobby! 🎉
Love the video, I am always drawn to these creative designs. And this video certainly made me appreciate the merchants who would sell nice 3D prints at a low price more. But also stops me (again) from buying an actual printer myself after the 3D printing course I took in college 8 years ago. Printing half of my finals for 25 hours straight was not fun at all (and the other half cut from a laser printer which was very fire harzardous and has to be forced shut down when the fire alarm went off because some fool decided to smoke inside the art building). And thanks for reminding me the almost forgotten pain of doing it.
Kim is so rigt about printing a bunch of skadis and hanging your controller collection on them. Would look sick.
Dude this was so much fun, please make more of these! You could print a bunch of Pokemon leading up to the Pokemon LZA release, or build an animal crossing town, or more switch accessories (there's literally thousands of files, just make sure you're crediting the creators if you're using free stuff, don't want to get sued 😂) you could make custom shells for game consoles if you use the right filament. Super stoked for you!
I love this change in content you are so creative ✨
Now it's tears of the kingdom link
Your such a really good RUclipsr I watched a lot of your videos when I was younger when u went to Japan it was a lot of fun thanks for making my childhood❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wood: I’m never buying Nintendo Switch accessories again.
Wood when the Switch 2 accessories come out: “It’s free real estate.”
@BeatEmUps btws you can 3d print the spools and you can melt the waste to re use it again. just felt to point that out as its a really handy thing and i may have a problem about waste of any kind lol
The point of the spool refills is to save on waste plastic, the cost is just a bonus/incentive. You will go straight back after seeing how many spools are laying around after a few days of printing.
Was going to mention you didn't need 100% infill, but I saw your timelapse, and I don't know how you got through the better part of a kilogram on one mid-sized project like that.
Unless they're selling you 700g or 500g spools?
WOOD! If your printer doesn't already have a hardened nozzle you will want to get one for using the GITD filament. It will straight up GAPE a brass nozzle. I love seeing people discover how much fun 3D printing is.
Its funny How you mention How 3d Printing hasnt been a thing for long, well its easy. 3D Printing was worked on in the 90's but the first commercially avilable Printer was released in 2006. It just "recently" became Popular due to the Cost and ease of use.
You can also 3D print refillable spools so you can have your own spools
You did amazingly! I was so lost when I started in like 2022 but the barrier to entry was so much bigger as well
A copywrite patent kept 3D printing from the world for 30 years, i think it was is the 2010s when some patents finally expired.
always love the energy when Kim in the video!
That switch tv box would be dope with a aftermarket small dock and the power cable coming out the back so you can keep it charged ;)
Wood Hawker and Nintendo Switch accessories are synonymous in my brain now.
Also you influenced me to get little game grips for my switch joycons. Makes Mario Party Jamboree and other joycon games much more enjoyable!
Also I'm with Kim. 3D printing is crafting. I'm a crafter with clay and needle felt. We are the same lol
Welcome to the hobbie, I've had my printer for only a couple months but I've fallen in love with it. I've been making mostly cosplay stuff and the experience of making stuff is so much fun
You should print those 3D printed dragon fidgets, they are so amazing!
You can make silicone molds and melt down the leftover PLA into objects
Next one you should 3d print an accessory, and Kim makes one by hand.
We NEED more of these videos
love your enthusiasm! please make more videos like this.
I'd recommend printing useful stuff like proprietary repair parts for things you value. your coffee maker spills water during the making? design (like in fusion360) a riser and fix this. you keep misplacing your remotes? print a holder for them and put them in. Also: you can print front plates for your switch dock with multi color prints now if you want to.
Make more 3D printing videos please 😅... I really enjoyed this...
For printing high detail models I highly recommend using a resin printer.
Wood’s real 3D printer arc begins when he discovers gridfinity
Buying it without the spool is something that is nice for once you have gone through a spool or two already and have an empty one already. That way you save money and the plastic spool isn't going to waste after being used only once. I don't think they intend for it to be an option where you are constantly swapping colors off a spool.
Recommend angling your minis by about 45 degrees. And yeah, use organic supports.
Okay, but can we talk about how good Wood looks in glasses!
I've been interested into 3D printing, but not enough to actually look into machine options or anything. Have read that the plastic scraps can be recycled back into other projects.
For the Labo stuff, I bet you could easily do small springs to cause the keys to go back to where they should after pressing them.
One of us! One of us! Once you start you’ll never stop 3D Printing!
8:52 but when you finish a spool in the future, then you will have empty spools laying around.
8:41 cant he just print his own spools? 😂
Or a spool winder.
Yes, you can print spools. I did for my own printer
