  • This is an instructional video on how to build and wire the 3D printed Gumball everything machine.
    This project is just getting started and i have a load of new mods and attachments i will be releasing shortly. ( a scroll saw, a cabbing machine and a diamond ring saw attachment will be next)
    If you're interested in following the progress of this project, please consider subscribing to the channel here.
    / @sweetgumnyc7794
    If you are interested in building your own Gumball, I'm asking for a minimum donation of $10.
    For this you will get all the required 3D files for the base machine, access to all future attachment and upgrade files , and a parts and a suppliers list.
    Thanks for watching and a big thanks to everyone who has already supported the project.
    We are just getting started!
    Follow this link for donations paypal.me/swee...
    Then email sweetgumnyc@outlook.com afterwards to be added to the backer group.
    I started a Facebook page for backers to share photos of their builds, mods or to help with problems.

    It's so sad that more people don't see this and support the idea. It would be great to buy a ready-made 100% kit for the whole machine, with all the 3D parts and all the small parts already included.

      Me too, but I’m in the U.K. so shipping would be a killer! Surprised a company isn’t interested in supporting you to take it to market 😊

    The video dreams are made of! I’d LOVE TO MAKE in U.K. power and fittings! If I had access to a 3D printer or a kit to make this in the uk would be heaven! 😊

    10 dollars well spent, sadly no 3d printers around me to make this happen for myself currently.
    Keep up the good work.
    Much love from Poland

      There are often people with printers that will print stuff out for you for a fee. Hopefully you can find someone in your area.

    Shrink tubing would probably be good to put over the wires. It’s super cheap at harbor freight and can be shrunk with a lighter or heat gun.

    Hello, I am so excited to have found your channel and your work! I have always wanted to get into lapidary work and jewelry work but the startup costs for all of the machines was overwhelming and not in my budget. You are doing incredible work and will open this up for so many people! I have a quick question about the 3D printer: Do you have one that you recommend? I do not have a 3D printer, nor do I have access to one, but may be able to swing the purchase of one. Thanks again! Will be buying the plans soon, and figuring out how to print all of the parts. I am so very excited!

      I also had no experience with 3d printing and picked up an ender v3 se for this project. Id recommend that one has been very easy to use and so far great results

      Hi!...If youre a maker of any kind (jewelry or pretty much any hobby) you will find that your 3d printer will probably be running a lot! There is a website called thingiverse that has thousands of free 3d files for all sorts of random hacks, gifts or home improvements as well so im confident you will be happy you bought a printer , even without this project...That said, if you're a beginner, i suggest the ender 3.Its probably the best bang for your buck machine..Its no frills, so nothing fancy but its a good machine to get started and only costs a little over $150..The build volume is big enough to print this machine and besides, even if you knew someone willing to print the parts needed for this machine, i feel you're gonna want a printer to really participate in this project because i will constantly be coming out with new mods and attachments. This project will be a constant work in progress. My goal is for this machine, combined with a 3d printer, will hopefully give you the ability to make almost anything. They compliment each other. tinkercad is good free online software to learn how to make your own files and when you outgrow it you can move onto fusion 360..good luck and let me know if you have any other questions! learning to 3d model and then 3d print your creations is a very useful and fulfilling skill to learn!!

      @@sweetgumnyc7794 Thank you so much! That seems very reasonable. I am very much a beginner and am looking forward to being able to learn now that I will have what seems like an awesome way to get started for so much less than purchasing all the machines separately! Do you plan to post more videos at some point demonstrating some of the uses more thoroughly? Specifically the trim saw/lapidary stuff is intriguing to me but I'm not sure how the set up works to keep the wheels/saws wet without water going everywhere. Maybe that is described a bit in the plans? Anyway, thanks again and I'm looking forward to building one and playing around with it, and will look forward to your next content!

    Hey @Sweetgum NYC - Could you do a video on where and how to place the brass screw inserts? Are they needed to hold the case together or just for attachments?

    I'm going to use Wago 221 lever connectors for my wire to wire connections in my build so that I can easily swap a motor or switch later. A pack of 10 three-connector Wagos cost $8 at most hardware stores and they handle 24 to 12 gauge wire.

      after you finish your build can you post and confirm they worked and fit properly?ill add your link to the parts section when you do... what you're doing is exactly what i hoped backers would do. Improve the machine and help contribute to making it better and more versatile. The available space inside the case is limited so i have been hesitant to suggest anything i haven't confirmed to work myself . Thanks for your contribution!

    Hey sweet gum. Any chance you need an apprentice in nyc? I’m a local to the city and have worked with different mediums and fabricating in jewelry. I’m looking towards gaining experience and just finished an art residency.

    How do you mount the power supply inside the enclosure box so it doesn't move around?

    Hi , I just got my motor and I am excited to get started using it for various things especially lapidary. I do not have access to any 3D printer. I would gladly buy all the add ones from you plus donate to your efforts with this project. what would be best way to communicate .

    • @sweetgumnyc7794

      a backer already reached out to me who runs a 3d print farm. He offered to print the parts for people who dont have a printer. Im waiting to hear back from him regarding cost to print the parts but honestly, the machine is intended to go with a 3d printer. The idea is that with this machine AND a 3d printer, you could make anything...There will eventually be hundreds of accessories that can be printed and considering you can get an ender 3 now for like 150 bucks, i would just get a printer. It will ultimately be cheaper and youll have the full potential of the machine . I plan on using the machine to make some projects on the channel in the future to demonstrate the versatility.

    • @oldmanhatfromls

      Where I live, the public library has a maker space with several 3D printers that are freely available. I've printed a few things there and it was a great way to get started with 3D printing for 0$. I may eventually get my own, but only if I get deeper into it.

      Hi Ronald, if you go to the sweetgumNYC facebook page, youll see i recommend two machines, one is a cheaper option and one is a better, more expensive option. Both will work for this project but the more expensive option will print faster and allow you to experiment with more materials, like flexible or rubber type materials .@@ronaldhoppus9015

    Can you pin a link to the exact one you purchased? all the ones I find say ER11 or ER16 collet, where as I noticed yours is ER32. Thanks. Also, I noticed they have the smaller 24V 775 motors for like $15-$20, Im curious if they'd have enough power??

    • @sweetgumnyc7794
      @sweetgumnyc7794  8 месяцев назад

      "enough power" depends on what youre doing. A 500 watt motor could be seen as over sized for some operations but i thought it would be better to have too much , rather than not enough power, especially considering the machine will eventually be able to do hopefully everything. Also you need to consider the motors actual size. The machine and all of its attachments were designed with a 52mm motor in mind, so it wont work if the motor is not 52mm wide and if the length is different , you might not be able to stand it up or have it work with all the attachments.
