What about variable width?

I had been printing lithophane maker coins… note to self, make a post about my new maker coins. Anyways, I was making lithophanes, the best settings for which are 1 shell, 100% infill, 0 top layers (since the infill covers that). Then when I switched to another print, a quarter top of a cylinder, and I changed the infill back …

Dragon Razor video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2ssQk54C00 Code for 3D Scholars: C:QZN DNWUILO AP PQAFF “OLCEIH”  Worst intro ever. I had a whole custom thumbnail for this video made, only to have YouTube grab and even better one that I decided to just go with. I mean, that’s a legitimate smile looking at this razor mid shave.

Lessons from my first livestream

Intro chat with Scandy group

The people producing the scandy invited me to do a QA with their group earlier today and I thought I’d share the transcript with everyone. Only a few people showed up, but a good time was has by all as we talked about 3D design, the work I’ve done, and 3D scanning. Enjoy! mattfryou : Feel free to brush up …

3D Printing Safety: 3D Printing 101 Video

For those who don’t know the meme I used for the thumbnail pic, click here. Putting the reviews on hold for a bit to start a new series of videos, an educational 3D printing 101 series that will eventually cover the questions you should ask before buying a 3D printer, questions about what kind of 3D printer to buy, and …
