PrintABlok is officially in go time. On Monday Feburary 10th I’ll be livestreaming on YouTube and flipping the switch on the kickstarter, and for the next 30 days after that I’ll be very little more than modeling bloks and mech accessories. I wish I had more to day about it than that. But I’m gonna leave it here and say, …
Watch on YouTube I have this weird thing about the projects I do. If it’s gonna go somewhere, I can’t stop doing it. But if I’m gonna hit a wall, it’s like my brain is in a stupor whenever I work on it. Is that because the spirit of the Lord whispers to me what is and isn’t going to …
Watch on YouTube I worry that this review came out too soon. I worry about that with all my reviews. I haven’t really lived with this printer long enough. I haven’t had it break down and had to fix it, and popped and discovered it doesn’t have the parts that other printers do. So I regret that I don’t get …
Watch on YouTube No one has said anything, but maybe some of you have noticed I haven’t been making videos in the new year. Rest assured I am trying, but technical problems seem to be piling up and my rate of success has been hovering right around zero. I don’t want to bore you with how the sausage is made …
Watch on YouTube Well, the first video of the new year and the new decade is one that is almost impossible to listen to. But I realized how this could have been done better the moment I wrote the description. I should have just told you the story of finding these guys in a corner of ERRF where no one …
Watch on YouTube I used this video to test a new technique of layering a chroma keyed PowerPoint over my video, which itself is chroma keyed over a static image, all layered in real time. The result was, I think successful, without much frame drop, but I don’t think I could do all that while using Blender. And it is …
Vote here on the next 3DPProfessor Kickstarter As this year comes to a close, it’s a time to look backwards, as well as keeping an eye on the future. 2019 was an amazing year, with improved video equipment, and trips to the Bay Area Maker Fair, Midwest RepRap festival, and East Coast RepRap festival. There’s been successful experimentation with new electronics …
Buy in the store The Chibimal Farm Pack is finally finished. When I started working on this farm pack I thought it would be simple. A few set pieces, a few more Chibimals, throw in the ones from the Kickstart that match, and wham-bam, I’ve got a new product in the store. But I could not have more wrong about …
Watch on YouTube I figure around this time of year a lot of people are wondering why 3D printers cost what they do. And, true to my nature, instead of answering why, I’ll just talk to you about why it’s a difficult question to answer. Of course the question of “which 3D printer should I buy” is also complicated without …
Watch on YouTube “The 3D Printing Professor is not available right now. If you would like to leave a message…” This video was made 2 years ago for a course for My Tech High. It was the intro video and I really enjoyed making it. I’ve thought off-and-on that I’d like to release it to the general public, but never …
