Genmitsu CNC Router From SaingSmart Review in 5 minutes
Watch on Youtube I hope I don’t come off as bagging on CNC in this video. That wasn’t my intent. CNC is an amazing technology that 3D printing owes a lot to. However, the necessity of a slicer solved a lot of the problems CNC routing had, in that you had to design with the end in mind. There’s a …
Modeling a Spider on Monday Modeling Twitch Live Stream
Watch on Twitch.tv This morning’s Monday Modeling livestream was the most successful I’ve had, from a scheduling, technical, and modeling perspective.

3D Scanning with the $600 Sol Scanner from Scan Dimensions

Why aren’t 3D printed homes more common video
Watch on YouTube In the same week that I throw all attempts at making brief videos out the window, I follow that up with a 5 minute video to answer a single question. This video took… well, it took nearly 30 minutes with all the retakes I needed to do to get it right in one take, but that’s it. …
Making a wiggle bot with my son and the Longer Cube 2 video and YouTube rant

How to 3D print and make money while Unboxing the Sol Scanner Video
