I’m visiting the SeeMeCNC shop before road tripping with them to New York Maker Faire at the Hall of Science in Flushing Meadows. While there, we had a few minutes to kill, so JJ held the camera and we did a shop tour. It was tough, as I had to learn everything and them remember it for a single take…

I found some time to step in front of the camera and give you my thoughts on the Prusa i3 mk2 3d printer from Prusa Research. It’s a wonderful machine, coming in both a kit form and fully assembled. This review is of the fully assembled machine, and hopefully, it lives up to what everyone else has been saying about…

It’s Fan Mail Friday! In this episode, I open up some crazy awesome mail from some crazy awesome fans of the channel!

First off, Rylee wanted me to make sure I told you she had a little bit of a cold when we filmed this. She LOVES Glaceon, as it IS her favorite of the Eevee evolutions. I had the settings wrong in Simplify3D, and the raft came out wonky. It failed under one of the legs, and the leg fell over…

I’ve always wanted to learn CAD and I’m starting with Fusion 360. Bill Doran from Punished Props gave me a quick tutorial on how to do certain things, and I used that knowledge to make a “Maker Coin” like the one Angus made for me! This is great software and I cannot wait to model more things for 3d printing!

When 3d printing with a dual extrusion capable printer, the chance are you are printing with either two different colors or two different types of materials. In both cases, you should look into using an “Ooze Shield”. The wall will protect your model from getting color bleed!

My daughter Sydney likes it when I print neat little characters for her. She gave it a go today, and had a great time. Now she wants her own 3d printer, I guess that’s why she is calling herself 3D Printing Nerd Jr. 🙂

Oh man, testing out a watermarked version of Wirecast. Sorry about the watermark and the watermarked audio

The Portland Mini Maker Faire is September 10 and 11, and this year, I’m heading down with Barnacules Nerdgasm and Darth Bevis (from the NERDYNINJAS) to man the booth and chat with people about 3d printing and various other cool future technologies.
