Want to make better videos? Set your ego aside and let your work speak for itself.
I gave you a thumbs down because you broke away from an interesting topic to trash your viewers. Not cool man... kidding, l left no thumbs. Because overall it was a good video. But your timing on that was annoying.
Personally I thought the rant was hilarious 😂
Was a good rant.
Yea Pansy’s!
This dude is right. Don't downvote unless you have something to say. You're not helping the creator by being ambiguous.
Thank you.
2:13 don't care about "thumbs down". Just make your videos! 😎
Thanks for your support!
lol why so mad about thumbs down? ...i think it actually doesn't matter in the algorithm, it counts as an interaction with the video
the anger about thumbs down made me thumbs down.. else the video was fine
Thanks
My point exactly, its in the humain nature to get these reaction out of others, but at the same time, you seem to have taken that criticism perfectly.
I actually think you are right, though the algorithm is a tough thing to grasp, and I think it changes over time. Either way my plan to get feedback has not materialized in anyway shape or form, go figure...., but, I seem to have punk'd the system and the video is quite popular. Unintended consequence, however, I will take that money to the bank.
I'm not one of your subscribers, this is the first of your videos that I've ever watched. I came here by doing a search for printing transparent resin. I despise being pestered to subscribe to your channel before I've even seen any content and I sure shit didn't come here to listen to you complain about RUclips crap. That's why you get a thumbs down
First time watching one of your videos.. not a hater enough to press thumbs down ever on youtube only up or nada. nonethless 2 minutes and 30 sec in, I am hating your video...sorry, the 1 minute initial marketing and then 30 seconds of emotional response to haters is a bit annoying considering I just want to know about the topic displayed in the title!
Honest man's opinion. Take it or leave it. Now let's see if an SLA print can be watertight or not, so I can decide if I should buy an sla 3d printer or not
Finished the video: Thumbs up for the quality info. enduring the first 2 min definitely worth it.
Which printer are you using?
You can watch the identical video here with out the rant, ruclips.net/video/egh0mJtYD24/видео.html, it gets a small fraction of the views, compared to this one. The video was trying to "punk" the RUclips system, and it worked! Testing the RUclips algorithm shows that it likes and promotes, videos that promote controversy.
thumbs down only because ur mad in the vid!!!! thats how YT work man
Thumbs down because you cant take hate and random trolls on the Internet, you know the place trolls are born! Great Video BTW!
Video was great!! But had to give a thumbs down 👎 for complaining about the thumbs down people.
You do realize that the reason this video is so popular is because of that.....
Just be like a duck and let it roll off your back like water. Don't be a whiney content maker. It shouts desperate. Nobody wants to watch desperation.
You've got a good voice and have tons of potential! Keep it up! You'll make it happen. Just don't mention the thumbs down thing anymore. I am a total newb but that's the best thing I have learned thus far.
Actually worked out on this video, gets lots of views, because of the rant, kinda pumked the system on this one 😃 thanks for your comment and support I appreciate it
I only gave you a thumbs down because you where raging at people who gave you thumbs down 👎
Awesome
I don't usually leave a thumbs up or a thumbs down unless I really really like the video. But your rant was just rude my guy. That deserves a thumbs down regardless of the quality of your video. But there you have it, at least I manned up. 😏😚
Thanks, much appreciated
@@EricStrebel You're welcome? 🤣 😂
I thumbs downed your video because you go on a silly rant about thumbs down...
Awesome, thanks!
Here's the reason that I just gave you a thumbs down on an otherwise solid video. "Don't be a pansy" and "Man up" is terrible language. Do you talk to your clients like that? Because you're talking to your *potential* clients like that. It also demonstrates that you have a thin skin, never a good thing for a designer. Since I've never given you a thumbs-down before, consider this my critique and feedback for this specific video.
Thanks for the feedback, not what I was looking for, since it's just about the rant. Seems I punked my self and the algorithm, kind of out designed it you could say, I am certainly not the first RUclipsr to do this and definitely not the last. Also seems that the algorithm does not care if it's thumbs up or down. I do appreciate the interaction though. Have great day and thanks again for the interaction.
@@EricStrebel Often we get the feedback we need, not the feedback we want. For people interested in this kind of content without the ego or the language, check out the book "Prototyping and Modelmaking for Product Design" by Bjarki Hallgrimsson.
LMAO
Thumbs down mah dude. Just because it gets you mad.
LMAO, I know
not a downvoter but I'll comment.. the content seems fine.. dont let trolls get under your skin. Downvotes happen.. some people do it just do be perverse. When you let it start to infect your content by being combative with your energy that energy starts to spiral. ..soon you have negative feedback coming because of your reaction to negative feedback, and so on.
Even if they were to comment.. the gross majority are not content creators, they are consumers. Even the ones that are genuine in their dislike may not know 'why' or how to do better, thats not their job. You do fine, have confidence in your product and make positive content for your supporters instead of subjecting your supporters to negativity stemming from those who were nevere here for you.
Thanks for your comment and support, much appreciated
I am giving you a thumbs down for the thumbs down rant. Honestly man, it is just going to happen. Great information though!
Thanks for the comment, much appreciated
@@EricStrebel The rant in itself was fine with me, but the language you used there I really don't appreciate.
16 bottles for a couple grand!!! they better be made of gold for that !
I gave you a thumbs down for complaining about the thumbs down.
Thanks for letting me know
thumbs down for that comment about thumbs down...
Yeah, thanks! Love how you don't actually post content on RUclips for me to thumbs down! great
You may be very good at what you do, but that attitude, it's just not very likable.
I am Punking the system
Love it man, just drop the background music when your talking.. it’s a little hard to here your voice. 👍
You do make damn good videos and you get a thumbs up from me. Thank you for the free information that took you years of experience to acquire and hours of work to put into video and edit just so an underqualified amateur like myself can reference at will.
@joshua davis thank you for your feedback and support, very much appreciated!
I just gave you thumbs down just because you mentioned that lol
Great doesn't really help me out though!
1:40 when he said "it's looks like shit, how can this past a quality check" i have to laugh because he is american and he has a american product in front of him haha
The background music which is inappropriate is one reason for a thumbs down. You don’t need a background music if your content is good.
Alright Eric, I'm going to man up. Gotta do it. I've watched lots of your vids but I don't think I've ever commented. So here it is......your work is incredible. It's inspiring and I always learn a ton of stuff to apply to my own builds. Your work is completely unrelated to what I do but the types of thinking you apply to your projects, your problem solving skills, and your attention to detail is universal.
So from one youtube maker to another, you gotta know you are doing great work. Both your projects AND your videos. Don't let the haters get to you, it's part of the game, it's a sign of success on the platform. And if nothing else remember that as far as RUclips is concerned a like and a dislike are exactly the same. It's engagement. Each thumbs down encourages the bots to show your videos to more people.
Have a good one Eric.
PS. I really need to get me some of your fine tip glue applicators!
Black Magic Craft thanks for your reply and support. Seems I punked everyone including my self with this video. The comments have been interesting and the views have been pretty good as well. I did not know what was going to happen with that bit about the haters, seems that the algorithm really doesn't care if you have thumbs up or down. It doesn't seem to matter apparently. Again, thanks for your support. I will check out your channel! looks interesting. Oh, I think you will like the lure lock bottles, super handy.
Love the vid, Eric! You the king! Two questions. 1.) Why just sand to 400 grit? 2.) How would you sand the inside of an SLA print of a wine glass bowl? Keep it up, man!
You can go higher than 400 but you're talking about diminishing returns and it's not worth your time and you get the same results, for bottles either you need to take the bottom off or figure out how to sand inside.
I thumbs downed your video for probably the most aggressive response to thumbs downs I've ever heard. Everyone gets thumbs downed man, relax.
Ok, fair enough, thanks
You just made giving you thumbs down fun, LOL.
Why dont you get yellowing on your print? I need that trick🥺
pain in the ass to sand the inside of these models!
I don't know why youtube recommended this video to me, but whatever, I'll check it out. The aggressive/entitled challenge to downvoters to explain themselves was pretty odd, but I can see how it would be irritating if there was a someone with multiple accounts or a group of people who for some reason were targeting you. But I just did a quick survey of about 15 of your recent videos and ... you don't have a downvote problem. Just about any video will get a few percent downvotes, and who knows why. That is just the way it is.
So getting back to this video, I know have context, and yeah, your rant was out of place. Don't get personally insulted that it happens; it just does.
As for me: I didn't vote on this video, as my interests are very different from what you do; I have no opinions about it. But now I get why this video is getting so many downvotes.
Thanks for the feedback, seems the algorithm doesn't care if it's up or down actually
Thumbs up; Reasoning: Thumbs down roast
Instead of using clear paint, maybe you can try carpenting "polyacrylic" finish. For the internal surface, just pour some in, shake it, and then pour it out for future reuse. The polyacrylic have good surface tension, so it will tend to stretch on it's own while curing producing smooth surface, saving you from sanding.
Polyurethane is *much* more resilient than polyacrylic. I'd be worried about it disolving into the stored liquid.
A lot of Asian like farms will have their accounts downvote random videos/accounts to seem like they are legitimate accounts.
I'm not saying that is what's going on with your videos, but it's certainly one explanation.
Like farms, are basically companies that exist to upvote content for a price, and when they do they make the algorithm prioritize said content.
Interesting theory!
Ridiculous kinder garden level "i'm gonnatell my mommy" childish threats for thumbs up is the reason of my thumb down.
Thumbs up for u
I gave you a thumbs down because this is the first video of yours I have come across, and it left a sour first impression. That was an unnecessary addition to the video and in my opinion it ruined it as you came across arrogant. Shame, because content wise it wasn't bad.
I have the exact same video with out that content, if you want to watch the video sans that, that video has 3K views compared 87K views to this one, you do realize I am Punking the system with that video. ruclips.net/video/egh0mJtYD24/видео.html
@@EricStrebel fair enough. I will give that video a watch later then.
hahaha about the thumbs down!! thumbs up for that!
Great video until you used the word “pansy”. Homophobic slurs always get a thumbs down from me.
Lol, great
Disliked becouse you got mad over it lmfao
Cool, thanks for letting me know
Thumbs up on the request for constructive criticism when people leave a thumbs down.
wish more people would leave the reason they thumbs down stuff, i wish it was a requirement.
would you be willing to tell me how you 3d print the threads so perfect I keep getting little loops under mine
These bottles are outsourced with a provider that has good renin printing capabilities, sound like you are printing FDM
I got the same 😷
this is the reason youtube remove the dislike button..hahaha
Actually, there's still a dislike button, but your comments really not helpful to me as I specifically ask for why people leave dislikes. And nobody states the reason why.
i disliked because getting angry about dislikes is cringy and lame
Punked
music is too much, thumbs up tho
Thanks! I appreciate the feedback.
Can you get away with just using a typical clear coat spray can rather than using that urethane finish you used?
Yes
Great! Thank you!@@EricStrebel
Can a 3D printed bottle be safely used to drink from?
Perhaps once it is sealed, check the manufacturer's material sheet to see how safe the material you're printing with is
I would like to know if you know a way to make it food real/safe coating. So I could store water or other liquids and I can drink from it without getting cancer from the coating.
It's a two part cured urethane, it should be inert, check with the paint mfg, for long term use. My guess is that the urethane would need to cure at least 7 weeks until it stopped giving off gas.
@@EricStrebel thank you a lot, I am currently experimenting about it.
I like most of your videos. I always like your content. That said, I have observed that are often the youtubers who defy/confront their viewers, who receive even more backlash. It just never goes well. You can't do anything about it. It's how this platform works.
The creators who handle it best, just move on and focus on the content. They also address the audience as if we were clients or guests at your space, inviting us to hear what you want to share. Getting a 15-20% dislike ratio should make one wonder if there is anything one could improve: why other similar channels get better feedback? What do they do that I am not doing? what they don't do that I do? I would ask myself those questions. There's room everyone on YT no matter how unique your channel is. You don't have to change your style; just nail down what works that you also enjoy doing and stick to it. No one comes here to watch a rant. Most don't like drama either, unless it's channel about drama. We come because we like what you do and how you present it ...most of the time, anyway. The gist of it for me is: "I clicked on a video about "X subject". Well, then show me X subject, thanks" So that's my 2 cents. I spent some energy putting into words the dislike I gave you during the intro. I hope the feedback is appreciated.
Thumbs down.. hahah just kidding! Nice to see a guy making a living on what he tubes about.
this video is damnnnn gud
Most enjoyable and fck the haters just know thats a sign Your on the right path !!
i approve this video
i dont thumbs down really but if you want constructive criticism
cut your nails
lotion your hands (remember to get the webbings). bring the same level of care to your hands as the products and processes you show. we see them too
not sure if you change up the song for the timelapse very time but personally i don’t like the music. not sure what i would pick if it was my video though. not sure if this has utility in terms of improving, as probably the best thing to do would be just to pick what you like. but thought i’d share.
as far as people disliking:
feeling and putting into words are 2 different things. in personality science they’re actually on opposite of a spectrum. so people will dislike something and might not be able to put it into words/want to / be to lazy to try / dont want to be negative as this culture tends to frown on criticism of content, being a bit too praise heavy. or maybe creative people tend to be optimistic and that carries into the content culture. just my thoughts on it. at the end of the day though it’s useful to ask for criticism.
i’m the dude who emailed you about the editing thing btw
just some off hand examples:
3:50 long hold of eyecontact, feels severe, awkward, uncomfortable. same point can be made by, before pouring the stuff, thud the mask and gloves on the desk and cut to putting them on, which the safety voiceover.
4:26 clearing your mouth sound. can easily detach audio, cut that bit, and mute it
there just a bunch little things like this.
another thing was white balance from the varying light sources, one of the earlier shots was pretty warm.
4:44 table and angle is not straight on, almost a dutch angle effect.
voiceover is pretty good
frame by negative space
the background music and your voice can be eq’d so that you voice and the music don’t compete for the same pitch ranges, one being (tonality) lower and higher
6:13 another mouth snack
i’m gonna stop writing these now but hopefully can glean some useful stuff
is it food safe? or just for some stuffs?
Eh, the clear is automotive grade the so you could drink out of it, but they are prototypes and not meant to be used long term
Is it possible to produce a bottle that supports carbonated beverages?
Yeah, possibility......not sure how strong a 3d printed part would be for that. Why would you want to do that as a prototype?
@@EricStrebel I'm assembling a drinks equipment that is inside a dispensing backpack in which I need a pet bottle made to measure, unfortunately it's extremely expensive to produce industrially, I'm looking for a way to make the bottle and cap made to measure or 3d printed parts. I'm from Brazil and here it's very difficult and expensive to find a solution
The 3D printed part would not last long. I would suggest finding an existing bottle that has the volume that you need if the container is not seen?
Yo thumbs up for the thumbs down rant that shit was hilarious!!
Good work by the way. So, pardon me if you already have content on this but do you have any info on the client acquisition. Pricing & organization strategies ? If not that would make a stellar video.
Absolutely awesome!!!!!!
thumbs down: he told me what to do.
Thumbs up because you left me a comment
What filement did you use?
Resin printed
@@EricStrebel oh Do you think PetG transparent will have same look?
Nope, made a video about it ruclips.net/video/TPvy2CZu-fc/видео.html
Can you make a transplant small tubes? Like a lip gloss tube?
Yeah, I suppose
@EricStrebel Thank you for responding back so quickly. I'm an entrepreneur who is interested in cosmetics, and I find it hard to gather information on manufacturers who print small tubes. I figured I'll get a printer and do it myself
For production they would probably not be printed but injection molded
2:11 "I need to talk to the haters out there that keep leaving me thumbs down on my videos ... if you're leaving me a thumb down that's bs"
Welcome to the Internet. Haters hate you for no meaningful reasons. A better question is "if you are not a hater, why do you leave a thumb down"
True!
I liked this video because i like it, fuck the haters
Thanks! much appreciated. Feel free to share with the world on social media
"If your leaving me a thumbsdown, thats bullshit" BAHAHAHAHAHAHAH I fuckin love tihs guys rant
I thumbs down the video just for coming at me aggressive I don't like that energy so i came back aggressive LOL
Instead of spraying, we do dipping: just dip your "clear" SLA part in a 1 part polyurethane(or slow curing 2 part) and slowly retract it out of the liquid. The slower the pull, the thinner the layer will be. No drips! And the thickness of the layers is perfect everywhere.
Fartastic
Another great video, Eric. I don't think it pays to fight the thumbs down'rs. Haters gonna hate and RUclips actually rewards you for those anyway because they count it as engagement. Just keep cranking out quality content and you will keep growing. It looks like you are targeting potential customers too so you probably don't want to show an adversarial side if you want to make a good first impression on potential clients.
This video had great content and good flow. One constructive criticism... I always skip the part where you introduce yourself because it's too long to just wait through it after the first time. I think most views come from non-subscribers so I can see why it may be important for it to be there. If you haven't already, look at your retention graphs. If you get dropoffs there it's probably worth dropping, shortening or moving that section. If you don't get dropoffs then it's not a problem.
Thanks again for sharing. I shared this video in one of the resin printing groups that I'm in.
Ok, great feedback, I think those are valid claims. I will work on an updated intro! I appreciate your feedback, actually the only one who has left constructive criticism, much appreciated.
@@EricStrebel I understand. Most people seem to be afraid that constructive criticism would be offensive so they don't speak up. The others say whatever they think but don't help. I understand the frustration. I love getting constructive criticism but it's so rare.
Your videos keep getting better. I hope to see your channel grow.
Thank you, I hope so! I love making them.
Why are these bottles so retardedlu expensive? What makes them special?
That sure looks like fdm, not sla prints.
Are you sure they were sla?
Alright, you want a reason for the thumbs down... well, the internet is a hard place to live in (or to make videos in).
The moment you show that you are affected by something someone says or do, people (humains... maybe) will try to get that reaction out of you.
I admire your desire to probably improve yourself with potentially critical comments... thats awsome.
In short, you need to laugh at them... while at the same time taking the interresting critical stuff... a bit paradoxal i know, but you seem very competant in your domain, good luck fellow 3d printing person :)
here
I left a comment
that's not very helpful, but thanks 😄
I’ll do anything to make it clearer but not sanding
Eric great video. Question are you familiar with the clear glass bricks? Can you make these with this clear SLA?
Perhaps....
Kudos for asking for negative (constructive) comments instead of thumbs down!
Hit thumbs UP, just for that :)
Great results with the bottle too!
Try to make your music much louder, I dont need to hear what you are saying . Yeahh. Louder. 😡😡😡😡
nice video ...*thumbs down*
Thanks, but that really doesn't help me, because it doesn't tell me why you gave me a thumbs down
@@EricStrebel cause you get mad about it
Lol, ok thanks for the view and the comment, so you never get mad about about stuff?
@@EricStrebel I do but I don't make it an upset segment of my (hypothetical) video.
BTW: you mentioned that your prototypes are worth a couple of grands. I assume you're producing them to showcase them to clients, shouldn't this be rather cheap to produce another ways?
Mitnichten ok, Keyword is hypothetical here. Anyway, thanks for the engagement totally helps my channel :-)
As an avid RUclips watcher (came here from Hackaday) - **almost every** RUclips video has dislikes, and your videos are in the "normal video" ratio of dislikes. I don't know the reason why people dislike individual videos, I personally rarely do that, so it's baffling for sure. However, one thing that you never do is complain about it.
It's pointless, the people disliking won't really listen to you - they have their reasons to press "Dislike" and they probably won't speak up in the comments, hell, no guarantee they even watch your video in full. However, for the people that actually like your videos, no matter if they press "thumbs up" or not, they came here to listen about interesting things - but you're spending their time talking about people that disliked your video, a minority of your viewers for which you don't even really understand the varied reasons behind the action you define them by. When worded in a confrontational way, people might thumbs down your video because they're confronted with a negative thing when they just wanted to watch interesting tech content, or just for the contrarian sake of it.
Some people will like your video, some won't. However, the dislikes are actually overrepresented on YT compared to likes. How? People are more likely to "thumbs down" a video they disliked than they are to "thumbs up" a video they liked. This is similar to people leaving negative feedback on stores, they readily do it, but to get positive feedback, you have to ask.
I get your problem, however. Some people that "thumbs down" your videos actually have useful stuff to tell. Since you are interested in feedback - I suggest you word this differently. I.e. "Like this video? Leave a thumbs up. Dislike it? Leave a thumbs down, and please leave a comment suggesting what I could do to improve my videos." People that actually leave dislikes meaningfully (some don't) won't feel attacked, but you do remind there's a way to let you know what is it that they're not comfortable with. Granted, not all feedback deserves to be taken into account, so don't worry. There are people out there that will dislike you simply because they i.e. dislike your voice =D
Thank you for some honest feedback, very much appreciated! I alike the engagement :-)
You should make the videos faster and more concise.
what would you reccomend for a transparent RC jet canopy. I know it is not entirely related however I am trying to make a canopy or treat the stock ones so that I can see through it with my FPV camera on board. I know it will still be slightly distorted but I just want to fix the blurriness
This process could work
Absolutely love your videos. I learn so much from them. Keep up the great work.
Your videos are always informative and well done. I'm surprised though that you don't know that there are a lot of immature children with monkey brains that find pleasure in giving all videos a thumbs down just for the hell of it. Since they don't have any friends or family, its their only way of getting noticed, even if it's in their own feeble little minds. The best way to handle it is just to ignore them like everyone else does.
Thanks for your comment and support, very much appreciated! .!!
Eric Strebel What company did you order from? What material? Did you find 1mm to be brittle / easily breakable?
Stratasys, 1mm is perfect.
Thanks this was pretty helpful. Im working on a 3d printed mech miniature and it has a cockpit canopy I'm trying print transparent. While I probably won't use urethane I'll happily take the rest of your process
Did you say a couple of grand! 16 bottles?
Yes, stuff cost money
Well done for the no job, but that's a whole lot of trouble to end up with a plastic bottle.
Prototypes are not always easy, just kind of how it works
The hazing is from the Cleaning liquid they used. You need to let it dry out before uv curing the object or a hazy film happens. I'm guessing you don't have a SLA printer?
Nope, stratsys printed them
The secret is thinner clear paint.
Have you tired coating with Epoxy's. I have purchased the XTC-3D and have with sanding and polish turned the surface into glass smooth.. still at first stage of testing myself.. experimenting with additions of thinners for better initial application.. but very promising.. and only video comment is I found you repeated saying things more than I prefer.. but I find most people to slow at getting to the point with stuff. .so maybe my issue..
Only have used the automotive clear. Post on social media and tag me when you have results
How much for a taillight assembly for my car?
Send the file over so I can take a look at the volume of the part to be printed
so these would be fully safe to drink from, and could be printed and made clear at home?
Probably safe to drink from but could not be printed at home, watch the video and listen to the audio, they are SLA printed from an outside supplier.
you have a new subscriber, and obviously gave this video a thumbs up haha, I cant wait for winter so I can get back to my projects :) rock on Eric!!!
lmao thumbs up for sure
Is this method food safe?
I dont get it, why do u even pay alot for some easy resin prints? Isnt it better to get a msla printer and some quality resin?
Not as easy as you think it is to get good clear sla prints
@@EricStrebel i mean the guys who you paid doesnt seem to have gotten it good either. You should consider buying a cheap resin printer like elegoo mars or pax x1 and trying it out. Its probs cheaper on the long run
Hi Eric. Tks for sharing this great solution. I am a hobbyst who 3D print slotcars in SLA. What would you recommend to give a transparent finish to these little cars window glasses? I don't have a spray paint gun.
With out a spray gun you options are limited, to rattle can and using a brush....with a brush much sanding you will need.
You make top notch videos! Great job as usual.
