- Using @BambuLab filament I printed the popular NASA designed fabric. Should mention that it took nearly 30 minutes to slice the model due to the insane number of retractions #3dprint #3dprinter #3dprinting

Awesome demonstration of polycarbonate. I am getting close to a polycarbonate capable setup so i can’t wait to get this print on with clearPC
Should mention that Bambu's polycarbonate filament appears to be a "Blend" rather than pure polycarbonate.
Main reason for that is pure PC filaments print above 300C and have very high thermal resistance. Although Bambu did an excellent job at making their PC balanced in strength & ease of printing it isn't as tough as pure PC.
All that said, this is still one of my favorite functional filaments as it's just so easy to print with and the print quality is also amazing as well!
@@MinWin3D interesting take on real polycarbonate. Still can’t wait to try it on my extender! I believe my bed heater can handle it and the carbon fiber should be perfect for adhesion. Only issue is that my enclosure is not quite finished and at the moment it’s just an uninsulated plywood crate.
Just started 3d printing and still trying to learn some more things, why can’t you just use PC now with just a 3d printed and laptop? Is there some sort of special equipment I would need
To use it?
@@itswambar2428 As you just started your 3D printing journey let me start by saying welcome to the community!
Next let me explain that this filament I’m using & many “PC filaments” are “PC blends” as pure polycarbonate is an absolute nightmare to print without an industrial printer &/or specialized equipment.
Polycarbonate (PC) similar to ABS, Nylon, & other high temp filaments are very prone to warping meaning they will try to curl up due to the uneven temperature gradients that build up around the print as it is printed.
Polycarbonate requires very high temps to print with some blends still needing 300°C or higher nozzle temps to print properly & most 3D printers on the market max out at 300°C with many more maxing out at far less at 240-260°C such as those that lack an “All Metal hot end”
This is because many cheaper printers will use a PTFE lined hot end which if heated beyond a certain point will begin to off-gas noxious fume that can be very harmful to both people & pets.
Also high temp filaments that like to warp such as PC often need an enclosure to help keep the ambient air warm enough to minimize those uneven temperature gradient I mentioned before. Also PC needs a print bed that can reach 100-120°C in order to provide sufficient adhesion. There are bed additives available which I use on occasion but having to clean the print afterwards isn’t ideal when you have to do bulk orders lol
So to more directly answer your question many people’s 1st introduction into high temp filaments is ABS but as you climb the high temp filaments ladder ABS->Nylon->PC & beyond the less forgiving the materials become. If I open the door of my enclosure while the print is going then the slight breeze will cause the print to begin to warp & once that happens the print is a failure 😔
Sorry for the lengthy reply. I like to provide plenty of info & insight into things I’ve experienced especially for those just starting out. Saves ya time on having to look a bunch stuff up constantly like I did 😂
@@MinWin3D no worries thank you so much for answering in complete detail lol
Not only a retraction torture test, but a slicer torture test as well. I sliced this on Bambu Studio and it took forever to slice.
Oh I know! It took PrusaSlicer a a little over 30min to finish slicing 😅
Does it really take that much math to slice a printable? I don't know I'm just now looking into printing
@@stagger9660 depends as Tree supports aren’t as simple as regular supports they twist & turn plus branch off a ton as it gets closer to the area’s directly under the area that needs supports so depending on the model it could be complicated
@@MinWin3D thanks! 👍
@Stagger Well, this one has a painful amount of complex geometry, for most simple prints, not at all.
I'm still waiting for someone to make a full suit of armor out of this.
Be the change you want to see
Im working on it but slowly wiyh 1 Ender 3
Shit like this is why i want to get a 3d printer in the future just to print cool shit like this to play with
🤦♂️
@@rightsdontcomewithpermits7073 what, is it stupid to want to have a 3d printer to make cool shit to fuck around with? No. No its not, there are people making full cosplay suits with their 3d printers and toys all the time, so you coming to my comment with 🤦♂️ makes you look stupid
@@hereticFox716 🤦♂️🤦♂️sounds like you need a safe place snowflake.
@@rightsdontcomewithpermits7073 what
I want this printed in steel on an SLM printer and scaled down 1/2 to 1/3 size.
Print it on one of those diffraction sheet things, the tiled side would look crazy
This isn’t the original design of the fabric made by NASA. This is a FDM optimized version of the original design; Great video!
What earned you the like was the Mini saber
Is this easily combinable instead of just scaling it up? It would be cool to see one with more joints instead of upscale
Thats impressive from any filament, but it being PC is amazing
Continue to be impressed with this PC blend filament from Bambu Labs 🙌
Blatant body armour hack for when the zombies arrive
Applying heat like that does nothing😂
Pla would warp from that
I printed this and it took a while but once you break up the links further it is significantly more flexible than shown here
Upload video pls
Futuristic chain mail armor.
The best chainmail
Nice! How long was your print time?
Good armor against space dragons!
That is a nice 👍 design and seems useful
Hey you should print this on the conveyer belt printer
Love the Hacksmith Mini Sabre 😂
The hacksmith saber!
Ohhhh nice!! Could you do a TPU?? Would be nice to see how it comes out and could double as a cushion pad to stand on while in the kitchen if it holds up!
How about you make it smaller and add more fabric around the center, creating a smoother fabric
I want to see armor made out
of this stuff
Yeah so I was in the middle of printing a project but thanks to you, that's now on hold so I can't print myself one of these cause WOW 😍
I really wanna see armor made out of this stuff
Dead in one strike
wow, nasa invented chainmail
"Designed by NASA" Like if NASA made models for hobbyists.
Good ol’minisabre
While I'm watching this, I'm printing the same exact thing
Hope it didn’t take as long to slice for you as it did for me 😂
My new armor design for dnd
Best part, Heat resistant and can double as ceremonial garb. Depending on the design of the armor
This is more like plastic chainmail than fabric
PC is pretty good at stopping bullets. I wonder how thick that fabric needs to be to stop handgun rounds.
Every time i see this sheet of fabric I wonder can you join sheets together
You need to print some chain mail out of that stuff
Goddamnit, I just commented that
Scale it down and print it in steel with an SLM printer.
I just want to talk about that torch over there, daaamn
Balistic test plz
That's super cool however how can you connect that to other printed parts of the same thing
The mini saver from hacksmith
I wanna see a cape made from that haha
This would make great low-level body armor...
I’m printing a small section in 3D printed aluminium as a sample, it should be very strong!
Can you add more fabric to that original piece?
Very cool! Thanks for sharing this with us 👍
No problem 👍
New chainmail Armour
Time for a 30 hour print on le ender
That a cool looking lighter .. and great print what is the fabric going to be for decoration? 😅
Printed this a while back in PLA, any tips for merging four iterations of this print to create one huge mesh?
This mesh is only possible to make in a printer because they're permanently linked. There's no way to link them after the fact unless you take your time glueing the joints together or some other technique.
@@MicroplaysMC I did manage to get two individual links together by breaking apart a part of it then melting it back together
One of those printers that prints on a belt could probably print this infinitely long.
@@xidarian Can it print it wide for body armor though? I'd still have to mesh multiple together then
Man gonna make batman armor at this rate
Is that the Hacksmith Mini-saber I see??
My skin can handle heat for same amount of time. If you want something that feels like fabric the Varioshore TPU by colorfabb in 1 or 2 layers feels a lot like actual fabric at 220C.
Ok but how would you weave it and link it with other pieces?
So super cool. What printer did you use?
I’m making armor out of this.
@@johnstubbs1122 what size shirt are you?
@Crimson Dragon forget the shirt size. More like what size is your dog?? Lol we need mega dog!!
Turbo flex be like: lighter moving fast
I have that same lighter. 👍🏻
Hacksmith minisaber
Future chain mail
Slicer settings for the polycarbonate? I'm just starting using it and having some issues
Where did that TORCH come from??
I want to see you try and make a gaming mouse out of this. That’d be sick!
Use it to make chainmail armor
You fast forwarded past the most satisfying part
What is an actual use for 3d printed fabric
I wonder if it's possible to print in Kevlar to make armor
Just put small lcd screens on it that shows the aktual background of this fabrik! -invible mode on-
but how do you connect them?
I know of a market for this
Wow could this be used as a bullet proof vest type material ??
That's looks more like scale mail then fabric
Where so you get the designed by nasa from
Tubulane flexible armor. Im trying to make one in pc too
Handles heat for a very short period of time 😂
Cool build. What is the 3d printer you use?
Bambu Lab Carbon X1
You can make a stab prove vest?
Does this need any supports?
fantastic... can you please say name of software youuse for printing.. or name best one for me ..thanks..im new in 3d print.
business idea..
Fireman suits..
What’s the lighter used in the video
Is that a hacksmith mini saber i spy
That's pretty impressive and I'm pretty impressed with how pretty it looks when I'm sure it's pretty fragile my pretty
As is, yup it’s pretty fragile. But the more updated version I printed that looks like scale mail would be a bit more durable
Can we do this print with metal
can it bend the other way though?
Cool 👍
Has anyone DONE anything with this? It seems just kinda cool and a benchmark to print but I'm curious if anyone has actually applied a functional usem
impressive 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
now lets see paul allens print.
Hi.
I need a resin that is temperature resistant and has mechanical resistance.
This one looked very interesting.
Where can I buy this resin, do you sell it?
Thank you
Gilberto
Does that even work with 50% thickness or is it than not flexible enough?
And by the way that would make it into the fidget toy
But what can you use it for
If you made it out of nano tubes of graphene it could be made bulletproof???
I wonder how small you could acale it down too..
Keep the torch in one place For 5 seconds.
Scale it down a bunch and try use it like actual fabric
no stl?
Usecase?
What app is he using for the 3D print preview?
I’m using Bambu studio & the “preview” was actually the model after I sliced it in the Slicer
Can you join it to another one?
Is that a honest lighter?
Dude that cool. Imagine a knight suit
