3D Printing Nerd

Coin sorter machines are fun, and the last one I printed sucked. I found another on Thingiverse thanks to The JAT.MN, and it’s Eugene Pentland’s model. Let’s give it a try on the Prusa i3 mk2 in Rapunzel silver PLA.

Are you going to MRRF this year? I sure am! So are a lot of really awesome people! You should go! If you can’t go, don’t worry, I’ll be filming AND streaming from the event!

Fan Mail Friday is back! Historically, my fan mail videos receive the lowest average views of any videos on my channel. That said, I still do them because it’s an absolute honor and privilege to be able to do them.

The Pythagorean cup is an interesting thing to read about, and now you can 3d print it! Pythagoras was known for his theorem, but, don’t forget, he had a cup that siphoned wine onto your lap!

Devin at the Make Anything channel made this awesome twist containers that satisfyingly slide into each other. He made a special big version for me to print, and I printed it on the Raise3D N2+ using Raise3D PLA filament. Each container is over 51cm tall, printed at 0.2mm layer height in vase mode using Simplify3d!

NewMatter sent over the MOD-t 3d printer for me to evaluate and review. My daughter Rylee helped me unbox the printer, and I was able to get it setup and print my first thing with it.
