You Should Be Watching BarbMakesThings Video

https://youtu.be/Tm5vvFq-sKo My first shout out video is here, and it couldn’t go to a more deserving channel. I do not know why BarbMakesThings doesn’t get the love.

Call me the Laser Cutting Professor

Don’t call me the laser cutting professor. But I am super stoked to have a laser cutter in the new Maker Space. To learn how to use it, and how to design for it, I decided to make a gear clock. The idea is that the minute hand has a small gear and the hour gear has a 12x circumference so …

Jimmy’s Tevo build

When Jimmy Shaw came to visit I bequeathed him my Tevo Tarantula. I just don’t have time to build printers like I used to, and Jimmy was sure he’d be able to. And he has. You can watch his two part live build below, and of course, subscribe to his channel. It looks like it took a good 5 hours …

2017 Year End Review Video

https://youtu.be/EkdGtu0Xheo Framing the year end review as a mock board meeting may have not been one of my best idea. I tried my best to make as entertaining as possible, but being as 3D Printing Professor LLC is a company with one official employee, and being as board meetings are just dull, I don’t know how well I could pull …
