HUGE thanks to everyone that sends something in! If you’d like to send something my way, the address you can send to is at the bottom of the description!

Filament on the floor? NO! Using PLA, PETG, and NylonX I 3d printed and installed brackets for filament shelves! Do they work? Watch and find out!

3D Printing puzzles isn’t new, but this amazing puzzle cube by Wildrose Builds is just beautiful! It’s three of the same piece, so thoughtfully placed together in such a way that everything slides in and forms a finished cube!

In a previous video, I design and 3d printed tripod leg extenders. Now, I needed a way to attach the tripod feet to the pvc pipe. EASY PEASY.

Paper towel cardboard tubes were a staple of my upbringing, and no doubt served a glorious purpose. NOW, a few years later, I find myself pondering the idea of using this timeless classic for a practical purpose. Can a paper towel cardboard tube support the weight of filament and be used as a spool holder?

The gear shift knob I 3d printed some time ago was getting to the point of needing to be replaced. Alex from Proto Pasta was around, and we tested annealing the PLA to see if that would help with being in the heat of the car.

Fan mail from 2 YEARS AGO! I found a box that someone sent. It had been misplaced. NOW finally two years later I get to open it!

My tripod is only so tall, and I’m tall, and my workbench is tall. I needed taller legs on my tripod. What I found was WAY too expensive, so I used 3d printing to make my own custom tripod leg extensions! LEGS FOR DAYS.
