3D Printing Nerd

Today In 3D Printing is back! We are talking about 3d printing face masks thanks to make the masks and StormeTech, we dive into how maple glass is 3d printing WITH glass, then I get to chat with Jon at Proper Printing about his 3d printer modifications!

For Today In 3D Printing, I got to chat with Jon from @Proper Printing. He is such a great person, with all sorts of wonderful ideas. I love his way of presentation on his channel, and I really hope you enjoy this full, uncut interview we had!

Let’s talk about 3D PRINTED CORAL, how the Marines are 3D Printing Face Shields to help against COVID19, and we SPOTLIGHT Justin Levy, a young maker in California!

Lots of time spent at home now, and with that means more sandwiches, and more CHIPS! I love chips, so tasty. We needed a better solution to closing the chip bags, and my daughter Sydney helps me demonstrate this GENIUS design for a print-in-place cam that works to close up the chip bags.

It’s here – our NEW SERIES! TODAY IN 3D PRINTING. My goal is to bring you relevant stories from the world of 3d printing / additive manufacturing. I want to highlight all of the awesome that 3d printing has played a part in. We kick things off covering how @Prusa 3D by Josef Prusa and others are helping during the global pandemic, we remember a medical pioneer who used 3d printing to help with surgeries, and finally we take a look at a curious @Maker’s Muse puzzle egg.

Many of us are stuck at home, and gardening is one fun way to be productive. GROW YOUR OWN FOOD! Now, thanks to 3d design and 3d printing, I’ll be growing some strawberries in our new green house! Fire up Fusion 360, and let’s get to work!

This isn’t a typical FIRST IMPRESSIONS video, I promise. Here are my first impressions of the Anycubic Mega X 3d printer. A large format, feature packed 3d printer – on paper. Does the real world testing match up?

Healthcare workers supplies of masks and face shields is getting low, and some have none. Now 3d printing face shields is happening, and we can get 3d printed face shields to those that need them the most!

People submitted print requests for the Raise3D E2, and I did my best to get them printed! You’ll see all sorts of great models, and I give you an idea of the quality the E2 prints at. Want to suggest a possible print for a future episode? Here you go:

3D Printing helped save lives when Cristian Fracassi from Isinnova modeled and 3d printed a Venturi valve for respirators. Italian doctors couldn’t get them fast enough from the manufacturer for the Coronavirus / COVID-19 response. This story took hold, and many reached out wondering how THEY can help with their 3d printers. Here are some ways to help!
