Click to play video Slicers are a very special piece of software that turns a 3D model into instructions that a 3D printer can follow to make a 3D print. Slicers do not generally create the 3D model, for that, you need a separate piece of software for CAD or 3D design. Or you can download the 3D model that …
Modeling my kids drawing 2 livestream
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXhnwBbf6ck The best livestream to date. I know I say that every time, but I think I’ve worked out every technical problem I possibly can with the hardware setup I have. 45 minutes that didn’t devolve into a slide show, though there were a few drops when I did some a particularly intensive tasks in Blender. At this point the …
3D modeling my kid’s drawing video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7sJi2fJTug As mentioned in the stream, I’m starting a goFundMe to get the equipment I need to improve my videos, so if you can, please support me. https://www.gofundme.com/3DPrintingProfessor Had a good time on the stream, and got about 25% through modeling the character. However the stream got laggier and laggier as I went on until it was, once again, just a …
PPAP video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqeWDeVHuGs Code for 3D Scholars: K:ZGONNZYZOGP IOG EHDMOK Believe it or not, I’m actually a huge fan of the memes. Those sort of easily replicated familiar language of the “in” crowd of the internet. It’s the intellectual shorthand that lets us all chuckle at each other’s jokes. I’ve subtly referenced certian memes in the past like duplicating the unhelpful teacher for my …
PomPom ring live stream… almost watchable
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TM-23DMuKMo M0nday’s livestream went well. I showed off how to I modeled the PomPom ring, answered some questions, opened some mail, and generally had a good time. Thanks to everyone who showed up and made this live stream a success. Technically I’ve overcome a lot of problems since I started live streaming, including getting the chat window up there, but …
3D Printing 101 – Anatomy of an FFF 3D Print
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HpHw4fbhUk So now that we’ve talked about the 3D printer, let’s talk about the anatomy of an FFF 3D print. Here is a 3D print stopped before it completed. Looking inside this print the parts of an FFF 3D print can be illustrated. FFF 3D prints are made in layers. The lowest layer is the first, the next layer goes …
3D Printing 101 – The FFF Process
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-e-SQk-wmM Your first 3D printer is likely to be an FFF or FDM, 3D printer. both work on the same principal, melting a material and depositing it in 3D space. In this chapter, we’ll be going into depth about how FFF 3D printers do their thing. The FFF 3D printing process actually starts with a piece of software called a …
2017 Year of the Rooster 3D Printed in Algix Dura Video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV08x0R8tpM Code for 3D Scholars: J:LUVLXJ PJ LUVMJ Technically this is a day late. While January 28th is Chinese New Year, just like the New Year I’m most acquainted with, the day itself is pretty much secondary to the day before and the countdown at midnight. So apologies to all my Chinese viewers to not getting this out in time. Download …
3D Printed Dice Dump Day – Giving it away
What a morning. It wasn’t easy making these dice, and it wasn’t easy uploading them either. Well, it wasn’t hard, just tedious. But now it’s done, and you can purchase and download any of the varieties on Pinshape: https://pinshape.com/items/31204-3d-printed-spacedice-variation-1-prototype https://pinshape.com/items/31205-3d-printed-spacedice-variation-2-spacedice https://pinshape.com/items/31206-3d-printed-spacedice-variation-3-space-dice-plus https://pinshape.com/items/31207-3d-printed-space-dice-variation-4-diamond-joe https://pinshape.com/items/31208-3d-printed-space-dice-variation-5-corners https://pinshape.com/items/31209-3d-printed-spacedice-variation-6-gears https://pinshape.com/items/31197-3d-printed-earthdice-variation-1-prototype https://pinshape.com/items/31198-3d-printed-earthdice-variation-2-space-body https://pinshape.com/items/31199-3d-printed-earthdice-variation-3-space-plus https://pinshape.com/items/31201-3d-printed-earthdice-variation-4-diamond-joe https://pinshape.com/items/31202-3d-printed-earthdice-variation-5-corners https://pinshape.com/items/31203-3d-printed-earthdice-variation-6-gears Giving it away I want to talk for a second …
3D printed pompom ring
This silly little project was motivated by a twitter conversation between myself, the 3D Printing Noob, and the 3D Pritning Cheerleading Squad of Lauren Renee and Heather of A Pyro Design. When an offhand conversation goes to production in less than a day, I can’t really charge for that one. So when I uploaded it it went to PinShape, naturally, …
