Man I have been watching so many different people trying to figure out better ways to print and finally I stumble upon you, you finally have shown me the things I needed to know. Thank you
I would suggest using some software like nvidia broadcast for clearing up the audio a bit, it can do wonders in reducing/removing background noise while still leaving your speech clear.
I print a lot of stuff with PETG in vase mode, so increasing perimeters and adding supports isn't really possible. I've found that increasing line width gives great improvements, in addition to cooling fan.
Yeah, vase mode is not really meant for anything with an overhang but that’s a great tip for increasing line width. The additional cooling helps with the increased material due to the increased line width too, thanks for watching!
Uuhh... Dude.. Changing the orientation of your overhang test defeats the purpose of the test! You're supposed to change settings so you improve the quality of your maximum overhang. But you do you I guess.
I’m not using the model for the test itself, it is just the model I chose for the demo. This is to demonstrate orientation of your print has affect on overhangs. Thanks for your feedback and thanks for watching!
I am new to 3d printing and am trying to calibrate overhangs as it has been messing a few of my prints up. I am confused, while I know that adjusting the orientation CAN fix the issue, why would you adjust the angle for this particular test itself which basically negates the whole point of having the 45+ degrees?
It’s just demonstrating how looking at parts in different orientations can help solve overhang issues. A lot of new people in 3D printing tend to not look at parts from alternate angles to help solve overhang issues. I know this because I was one of them. Bottom line, is it’s just a demonstration.
Thank you!!! I'll be back after I unpack my Prusa time-capsule: shame on me. I ordered it from Prusa at least 5 years ago and its still wrapped up in two shipping boxes. Should I buy a newer version? I think the one I have is an MK2S, or something like that.
Hey! Loved the video! Helped me out a lot! Just one small thing: the audio is messed up. Its really annoying. But still a really nice and helpful video 😁
Glad I could be helpful! Yeah, it’s one of my first videos before I had audio equipment, some day I will probably redo it with better audio. Thanks for watching and again, I’m happy I could help!
My first video watching you. Just a friendly tip, I watched you talking to yourself! Look at me (the camera iris). That way you are looking at us and so speaking to us.
Currently I’m using the Petsfang. I’m going to be doing a build video soon with the Hero Me, I’ve been wanting to give it a try. The Petsfang has been great though, it can be found on thingiverse, link is below. Thanks for watching!! www.thingiverse.com/thing:2759439
You are correct. Although, adaptive layers wasn’t an option for most until 2023 for Cura users and as you said comes with its own problems. Thanks for watching!
just wanted to mention, Im printing them in 20min with ABS running at 80mm/s, quality tapers off from 55 though still good till 65 Ender 5 + (modified)
So how does orientation apply to more complex structures? You rotated 50 degrees but does that mean with your 1.2 wall thickness you would always rotate 50 degrees to improve print quality?
Complex structures bring exactly that, more complications and factors to think about. 50 degrees is not a magic number and this is not a recipe for every print. This is just a method to approach a print, another tool in your tool box to think about using. I have printed many props and used this method with great success but that doesn’t mean it’s a fix all. I am also always evolving and learning and this is one of the ways that I think about my prints before proceeding. Hope this answers your question and thanks for watching!!
Your right. I did want to follow up with settings but there were so many variables in combo with the angles so I decided against it for now. I may follow up with it in the future, thanks for the feedback!! Thanks for watching!!! 🤙🏼
Yes, I am basically referring to wall thickness. When I say "wall count" thats how many layers or passes that are made to create the wall, this is a setting in the slicer. You might need to expand viewed settings to see the actual "count" and not just the thickness. Hope this clears up any confusion, if not let me know! 🤙🏼
Oh man, for some reason I’m not getting some notifications for some of my comments, so this is a really late reply. The angle doesn’t matter entirely matter but the top layers and amount of curves in a print can effect quality. Unless you have an option for adaptive layers in your slicer which changes the layer height on top curves and surfaces to provide better prints.
Seems like they need to make a printer that rotates the bed and extruder to accommodate overhangs and bridges and all of that. Kind of surprised this doesn't seem to exist
I think I saw something like this but not for the average consumer. It was a production/commercial style printer. I think the future of 3D printing is going to be amazing! Thanks for watching!!
Unless you leave your filliment in a damp location or you live in like Florida or something it's not gun a be moisture, everyone says make sure it's drydrydry but if it's not nylon of tpu or something else nonstandard, and your figment isn't 300years old it's gun a be fine don't even consider the moisture content tbh
Yeah, moisture 9 times out of 10 is not the case. I have had a few rolls not sealed upon delivery that printed horribly until I dried them out though. You are right, moisture is not the end all be all to consider but it can have a impact. Thanks for watching!
I don’t know much about the Kywoo Tycoon Max at this time. Often times problems printing is associated with the actual build (if it is a DIY kit), tuning, settings or a combination of everything. Best advice, go over the frame, settings, re-level, tune and try again. Keep us posted and thanks for watching!
Yeah, speed is a factor for sure but this variable can be greatly dependent on equipment. This is a vary generalized video that is mostly to get you to look at print orientation among other basic print principles.
The part is for demonstration purpose, some parts are not able to lay on their side. If you do something like a helmet with parts that hang off it, you can’t really lay it on it’s side but you might be able to change its orientation to use less supports or none at all. It’s to help everyone look at prints in a different way, or from a different perspective. Hope this helps, and thanks for watching!
Improving overhang by changing orientation to... remove overhangs... Not to mention, 0 information or insights into part cooling... This seems like hardcore clickbaiting....
It’s unfortunate you feel that way, it was stated in the beginning of the video that cooling can and will be a video all on its own in the future due to its complexity. The video is to get those not as experienced to look at parts in a different way. Either way thank you for your input and for watching!
i used to be able to print 65 degree over hang but after haveing to changeing hot end now can only print 30 degree can't fix the problem can't finf videos on it and can't get no help on it so if enyone sees this please contact me
How are you not gunna mention the most important thing which is part cooling... I saw in the bottom of your description that you didn't mention it because it could be a video by itself but that's completely irrelevant when you're making a video called "How To Improve 3D Printed Overhangs"... If you're going to make tutorials and guides for noobs to 3D printing you need to at least mention all the basics and cooling is probably number 1. The people coming here that are new to printing would of had no idea following this video...
Well, I understand your point and it is valid. It is mentioned in the description and in the video that it would be a video done later due to it being so in depth and requiring much more time. If I did not communicate that effectively then I will make sure in future videos to do that. Thanks for watching!!
While I understand your disapproval and argument the idea is still sound. Rotating an object may create overhangs else where but the tip is to get people to look at objects different then they normally would. Either way I acknowledge your comment and appreciate you for watching!
hi, do you think that this model positioning will work and print fine? Or how would you place this object to avoid failurs? drive.google.com/file/d/104Z6Bw0C3-GILCXklRpnXFM8-s1mhFaj/view?usp=sharing Its a resin printer. Thanks.
It’s very tough to tell if it’s good to go without being able to move around the model. It looks like it’s placed ok but again it’s very tough to tell. It looks like you are using Chitubox which is good but I would highly recommend Lychee. There is a feature, in the free version, that lets you know if there’s any islands that are not supported which is very handy especially if you are new to resin printing. I will be doing a supports video for resin in the future. I would also recommend joining a resin printing Facebook group, you will be able to post this and have a hive mind input. Hope this helps a little and keep me posted on your results, thanks for watching!
@@NerdvanaCustomCreations hi, we just printed the model. But look at this. Some layers got loose and the model on the front warped on the corners. Meaning the front bottom line isnt even/streight! Here are a couple of images of it: drive.google.com/file/d/17KvPuaxYpGM0iIM4gHgMUr9_tC9BWvX1/view?usp=sharing Do you have any idea or advise why this happend or could be avoided? Thanks!

Haha, thanks! Glad I could help and thanks for watching!
Hey, you just saved my day. I had a lot of issues dealing with overhangs and this video saved me. Appreciate the work.
I’m happy to have helped! Thanks for watching!
i found that with my ender 3 pro i can increase the overhang angle to 70 degrees by actually speeding up the printing speeds in the settings by 25%
Thanks for the tips
No Problem! 🤙🏼
Tks for the info, and keep up the good work

If it’s your first printer, I think you will be fine with it for now! Get your bearings and go from there. Enjoy the hobby and thanks for watching!
Holy crap! What did you do to get that smooth bottom?
I had it pretty dialed in for these test, just the right amount of squish 🤙🏼

No 3 and 5 are not really testing overhang. You just changed the 75 degrees to much less angle.
Combos of settings would have been interesting.
Your right. I did want to follow up with settings but there were so many variables in combo with the angles so I decided against it for now. I may follow up with it in the future, thanks for the feedback!! Thanks for watching!!! 🤙🏼

Does print quality roughness depends upon raster angle in ender 3v2 printer???????????

how do you get all the xtra settings in the cura app
You have to put it in advanced mode to see all the settings.

Yeah, speed is a factor for sure but this variable can be greatly dependent on equipment. This is a vary generalized video that is mostly to get you to look at print orientation among other basic print principles.
It sounds linke you are standing in a hair dryer
Yeah, this was before I had a mic so it’s picking up my basement A/C. Thanks for watching though!
What's the point of talking about overhangs and changing the orientation of the part? You better lay it flat on its side lol.
The part is for demonstration purpose, some parts are not able to lay on their side.

Laying it on the side is just a change in orientation too. Any round shaped objects or wall will have the same issues in any orientation.
