Watch on YouTube Tinker, hacker, maker, engineer. Where do you fit? I’ve made a consious decision not to adjust my content to include topics related to current events, pervasive as that may be for everyone. It’s not that I don’t have anything to say about the current situation. But my instinct (bad instinct, as it may be) is when everyone …
Watch on YouTube No one can say i didn’t give this 3D printer a fair shake. I may have even given it more credit than it was due. I smiled through a review of a machine that I knew wasn’t as good as it should have been and ignored obvious flaws, all in an attempt to promote a technology that …
Watch on YouTube I managed to get through recording and editing and even uploading this video before I realized I didn’t explain that gag I did at the beginning where I put a fan with an air filter on it in front of the FlashForge and claim that I’ve doubled it’s value.

Watch on YouTube This video was shot twice. Originally I planned on having this be 3 videos, but the audio that day was terrible, and after getting complaints about using my backup audio in a previous video, I decided to just start over.

And when I released the base blocks to the public, there was no doubt in my mind that they worked. I’d tried them on good printers, I tried …
Watch on YouTube The PrintABlok kickstarter is to the point where I would describe the time left as “hours”. Though, that number is more than 24, so maybe I’m jumping the gun. The Gatling Gun! Though, technically it’s not a Gatling gun, as those are antiquated and the modern equivalent is called “rotary gun”. There are actually some cool versions …
Watch on YouTube As PrintABlok enters it final days on kickstarter, and I look back on the progress it’s made these past 30 days, i am astonished at how far it’s come. And a lot of that can be seen in the mech I used in the logo. It was one base block and a few accessories. And now at …
Watch on YouTube You can tell I’m really dedicated to this whole rivalry with Lego I’ve got going on. By the end of the video I’ve gotten so wrapped up in the lecture I forgot to bring it back around to the whole “We’re doing this to print Legos” thing. If you need to print accurately, here are the steps: …
