Introducing PrintABrik on the A/C Show with JoshGotBored

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 …

Autodrop 3D Print Farm Full Interview Video

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 …

2019 Rewind – Best 3DPProfessor videos for 2019

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 …

Looking to the past and to the future

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 …

Chibimal Farm Pack afterthoughts

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 …

3D printers on a curve and unboxing the LK4 Video

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 …

Is 3D Printing Cool? Video / COPPA fall out

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 …

I want you to steal my stuff video

Watch on YouTube Yet another thumbnail from the “just bung it together” school of thumbnail design. Do not look too close at the pixels. However, I did decide to credit the picture that I severely edited to make this. It’s something I haven’t always done in the past, I’ll be sure to do it more in the future. If I …

Is my channel for kids or not? Video

Watch on YouTube Well, this is a mess. And there’s gonna be some unintentional consequences to YouTube’s response to COPPA. Who is actually going to mark their videos as for kids? No comments, co community tab, no data collection, so probably no algorithm boost, info cards, screens, no save to watch later, no playlist, and most importantly no youtube revenue. …

I want you to 3D print Legos

Watch on Youtube Do not look to closely at this thumbnail. The photoshop is so bad. Hopefully it doesn’t look too bad when you click on it. I’m relying on the small size of thumbnails to cover up a multitude of sins. Before I started pushing and pulling pixels, the srouce images looked like this: That’s a Blender render of …
