3D Printing Nerd

Once again it’s time for another Fan Mail Friday – this time, on a Saturday! I got lots of mail in again! You guys are too awesome!

I wanted to print a BIG rocket on my Raise3D N2+ 3d printer. I brought the model into ideaMaker and maxed the size. It’s HUGE! 24″ tall! I also show of the Chaos CoreTech Bob-Omb and Robber Rex RAWR!

The unboxing of the Raise3D N2+ 3d printer left me, and most of you, wanting more. I’ve got the printer printing, and just a small issue to work out before I can consider it ready to go for long prints. Here I update you on the printer, address the build plate clips issue, and apparently stay up way, way too late.

The Raise3D printers are quite a sight to be seen, and the N2+ is easily the biggest enclosed 3D printer I’ve ever unboxed and used. The box comes on it’s own pallet. Crazytown. In this video I unbox the printer and attempt to put it through it’s first use. What happens? Watch and find out!

In this episode I review the 3DGence ONE 3d printer, provided by Preet at DesignBox3D. This 3d printer is an amazing machine and built incredibly well. The quick change nozzle system and the ceramic build plate are unique features, but are they enough to make me tell you to buy it? Stay tuned.

It’s time again for another edition of Fan Mail Friday! I’m back from being out of town and I have some awesome things sent to me from some AWESOME people! Plus, holy cow I got a super surprise from Sushiboy!

I’m back after a week away. I visited Matterhackers and hung out with many during a meetup. I also volunteered at The Nerd Machine’s NerdHQ to benefit Operation Smile. While there, I saw the Magic Candy Factory! SO COOL!

At NerdHQ outside of San Diego Comic Con, I had the chance to talk to Melissa about the Katjes Magic Candy Factory. That’s right, it’s a candy printer! I’m going to hopefully get one to use and talk about on the channel. Keep your fingers crossed!

I 3d printed the Lucy model from the SyFy show Killjoys, and I needed to glue it together. Thankfully, my friend Christine was in town, and she helped me out with the assembly! Oh, AND BEER.

I have some awesome travel coming up, plus, new printers arrived! First, I’ll be at Matterhackers on July 19th for a fun meet up, then I’ll be at NerdHQ during San Diego Comic Con July 21-24. Lastly, I talk about the 3DGence ONE, Fabrikator Mini, TEVO Tarantula, and the Raise3D N2+

I’m always asked to print real-world useful 3d printed items. I found a need, and 3d printed a useful item! This is a headphone holder that attaches to a desk or table using a 3d printed adjustable clamp! It works amazingly well! Used my Cubicon Style to print this in ABS.
