Watch on YouTube https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/3dpprofessor/printaquest In this video, I’m tired of hearing that I can’t do the very thing I’m currently doing. Not only can FDM print minis, but more minis should be designed for FDM 3D printing because it will result in more successful prints, no matter the process. In this video I debunk the myth that FDM 3D printing …
Watch on YouTube One goal for PrintAQuest is to provide physical copies of the game for people who don’t have 3D printers. However, do to that I wanted to see if a print service like Slant3D could provide my customers with the parts at a good price. The results, however, did not impress. I want you to know there was …
Watch on YouTube PrintAQuest is the best game ever. Or is it? I judge 3D printed board games to see which one is the best. Follow along with the list on Polymaker’s blog and then check out their filament. If I’m being totally honest, I don’t think anyone at Polymaker actually vetted this list before putting it up there. I mean …
Watch on YouTube Unlike other forms of media, tabletop games, with their tactile experience, give visualy impaired players a unique way to interact. In this video we look at how PrintAQuest could be modified for the blind. The kickstarter is still going well and continues to grow. You all have gone past 3 stretch goals, and I’m good and behind …
Watch on YouTube Often when discussing 3D printing file format, there is a vocal minority insisting that we should all abandon STL for STEP. And I am here to say “NO!” I suspect there may come a day when generative AI will be capable of turning mesh data into STEP data. And on that day I mourn for the death …
Watch on YouTube As the PrintAQuest kickstarter comes ever nearer I wanted to give everyone a preview of the game you can look forward to. Here’s a play through a a test level we’ve made for PrintAQuest. My plan when recording this video was to release it after the kickstarter started. But while editing it I realized I had made …
Watch on YouTube Why are we still using STL when 3MF exists? Turns out a lot has changed since last exploring this question. At this point I’m basically asking anyone in the comments to say “What about STEP files” to release the cut content as it’s own video. I’ve basically only got the video for PrintAQuest left to record. I …
Watch on YouTube In the early days of 3D printing a simple idea would simplify the design and enable easier and cheaper making. Not to mention saving on shipping. But as 3D printing as grown it seems bed slingers has become a bad idea that needs to be thrown off a cliff. A little behind the scenes trivial for you. …
Watch on YouTube Cast your vote on YouTube I can not tell you how hard it was to stay objective in this video and not try to influence the vote. Because I know which one of these I’d choose. In preparation for this video I needed to come up with a thumbnail for both of these kickstarter projects. Partially because …
Watch on YouTube Flashforge enters the Multicolor 3D Printing race with the Adventurer 5X, a solid entry into the next generation of 3D printing that is fast, capable, easy to use, and with a lot fewer security concerns. The Adventurer 5x has quickly become my workhorse machine if only because it’s as easy to use as any 3D printer and …
