Thanks so much for watching! I LOVE hearing from you all, and I read every comment, so let me know what you think, or any ideas you have for future videos, in the comments below!
Hi! A „Tools for 3d Printing“ video would be really nice!
Email me, I'll hook you up with my 3d printable tool set which includes hardware tools like an adjustable wrench, pliers and a 12 piece wrench set..standard and metric 👍
I have more tools on the way that will be added to the set, many of which are in the final testing stage right now. Although the tools in the tool set will work best if printed in metal or high temp hardened plastics, they are still fun and even useful around the house if printed in PLA, especially if your using the tools on newer, rust free nuts and bolts (or 3d printed nuts and bolts). I think this set would be perfect for your next "useful 3d printed tools" video.
Btw..I just found your channel, looks awesome, I subscribed!!
@@3dprintedhardware That sounds nice! Can I get that too? What‘s your email?
I'm honestly so impressed with how enthusiastically you've taken on advice and constructive criticism, it's genuinely awesome to see your production and editing style developing - and your subscriber count climbing - with every new video :)
Did something weird happen to the footage of you at 10:25 ? I'm watching in 1440p and that bit seems super compressed...
@@3dprintedhardware Thank you!
The way you used that pocket hole jig was actually painfull. If the drill is not the same size as the hole you feed it through to the wood, you don't have any benefit from the jig. and if it does have the same size, the drill will eat your jig, so you need a metal surface inside there. Good idea in principle, but this is a one use disposable tool if you use it right. And if you don't use it right, you don't have to use it at all, because it does nothing for you.
Waaah waaah
I wonder if brass inserts would be a good addition. Should be easy to find and hold up for a bit even though it’s pretty soft.
@@IanFitty It might, certainly better than just trying to guide your drill with pure plastic
@@josiahbaumgartner7643 I'm positive you are just as painful to watch use tools
Perhaps this is true for someone like yourself.
Would really like to hear about what different things like bearings, hardware, and others were super useful for you!
On it!!!
@@thenextlayer Yes please
M3 screws kit should be included with every printer most of the 3d printed things use M3 screws and nuts
Yeah sooner the better on this one. Aliexpress shipping times are slow.
I just subscribed based on seeing that video. I look forward to it.
Yep! Would definately love to see your 3D Printing tool collection, keep up the great work! Also the bearing screws etc you have for just in case projects would be awsome too!
Thanks for this! I was expecting the list to have maybe 3-4 useful tools out of the giant list, but you presented MANY useful tools. You also presented tools that weren't just specific to 3D printing, which is even better.
I'd love to see integration of 3D prints with other building techniques, such as woodworking and working with metal. As an example, 3D printed bushings to work with steel square tubing, to permit rotation or telescoping designs that may require some mig welding, but that don't need lathe or mill work, because of 3D.
On it. Thanks for the feedback!
I would love to hear more about all the extra components you have around for your projects or even what you have on hand to troubleshoot your printers. Thank you!
Awesome videos man, I really appreciate the time and effort you put into the presentation of your vids. I just wanted to cast my vote for the video about the tools you use to improve your workflow. Thank you so much!
For the bit holder: Try out carbon-fiber polycarbonate, it's slightly flexible but also very strong. It needs an abrasive-resistant nozzle, a well-maintained printer, in some cases a temperature-controller enclosure, a ~100c bed and a ~300c hotend. Your Prusa should be able to handle that though! It's definitely not my favorite material to print with, but it is my favorite in terms of end product properties. Another thing to try is to just make a "solid block" with slightly oversized hex-shaped holes in it, and put a strong neodymium strip embedded in the bottom to hold the bits in their holes. Absolutely loving your channel btw, and the clean look of your studio!
Another vote for a video on useful components(!)
I’m all about having stock on hand so I have it when I need it, being able to just place one big Ali express order to get equipped would be great!
Awesome! Thank you! Make sure you're subbed, I'm already working on the video :)
Super keen for the extra components video. Tools would be interesting also 👍
Honestly... Ive been on the fence about buying a 3D printer but never considered printing out tools. This for sure was the selling point.
All the videos! Do all the videos you mentioned! We want to see tools for 3d printing. We want to see extra parts and hardware for 3d printing. We want to see every video idea you can come up with!
Deal!
This topic is the reason I bought a 3D printer, I'm frustrated with suppliers not providing tools within a reasonable amount of time, over pricing, and missing design features.. I solved all of that by learning AutoCad and getting to know my printer.
Thank you, it's people such as yourself that have helped me get to know the in's and out's of my printer.
My pleasure thanks for taking hte time to comment!
So the tools all turned out to look much more useful than I might have guessed. It is very impressive where this tech is going - it wasn't that long ago that I thought that 3DP would never really end up capable of production level parts but it is getting closer and closer. Great video!
You should see the newer printers. This video is old and the parts were crappy. Today we have moved way past
You are just a fountain of great ideas, secondhand maybe or original I couldn't keep up with the flow but I'm seeing some real possibilities here. Thanks so much; keep up with these useful shop and fixing problems type videos. Everybody has a world of challenges.
So many projects, all of them are so useful and I can't wait to get started. The "Tool List" that you mentioned would be a great idea, hope to see it soon
Great video, I liked a lot of the tools you showed. I really liked the cordless tool battery and tool holders for organizing your small storage space. All of the suggested videos you asked about I think would be great.
ON IT :)
The 3d list of part you need would be great. Thank you
MORE!!!!!! Thank you, Jonathan, for these print ideas and tools videos, please let us have more of them. I would particularly like to see tools and storage for 3D printing, both FDM and resin. This video convinced me to subscribe, so keep it going, please.
On it! But I don’t do resin :)
Thank you so much for this video, I am beginner printer and I didnt know what to print, this video helped me a lot to decide what to print.
Love your channel! Thanks for all your hard work, it shows and it’s helpful
A general hardware video would be awesome! All I have are a few extra nuts and bolts that came with the printer and would love to know what things I should look for (actually… they might not have supposed to be extra considering the wobbliness of some of the components…)
Would definitely like to see that video on what additional items you recommend keeping around. Thanks for the video!
Very much enjoy your videos. Enjoyed this one, radius gauges and bench dogs were new prints to me, thanks for finding and sharing.
I found a useful tool last winter. Ice scraper. I tried PLA,PETG,TPU. I found tpu worked fantastic once it was cold(left in the car) petg was a good 2nd option.
Also a nice little salt scoop printed from pla was helpful.
We got hit with a surprise snow/ ice storm and i wasnt ready so i fired up the printers.
Those solder jigs are useful. Print them from petg or better for temp resistance. I have one in ABS and another in PC.
yes a 3d printer tools video would be great just started 3d printing and its so awesome to be able to make your own things at home
Great, I'll likely do it :)
Just ran across you channel and am very impressed. Thank you for you time and effort. Most importantly, I pray you and all of your loved ones are staying safe during these horrendous times. Peace brother. - Dov
I am DIY Hobbyist & Woodworker. I just bought a new 3D printer over the holidays. My goal for getting a 3D printer is precisely this i.e. building functional items around home & workshop. Your channel seems very much aligned to that same goal.
Subscribed to your channel already & looking forward to more relevant content.
You’re gonna fall in love bro especially if you’re in woodworking it’s so many things you could print 😭😭🔥🔥
Loving the content, for a relative newcomer your stuff is super polished, a joy to watch. Keep it light, keep it fun, it's a hobby after all.
Thank you so much, this means a lot to me
The video on hardware would be great, I've experimented with some hidden / inlaid nuts and would be interested in more ways to implement that technique.
Awesome! Thank you! Make sure you're subbed, I'm already working on the video :)
Ordered my first 3D printer earlier today. This is the first 3D relevant channel ive subscribed to.
Awesome video! I particularly loved the dremel tool sharpener; that was pretty genius. Thanks for all of the ideas!
Glad you liked it! Make sure you're subbed
YES PLEASE for fasteners and bearings and press-fits needed for common prints.
Received my 3d printer for Christmas, i am printing away and crash course learning and your channel is helping me immensely. thank you :D
its live in my library!
OK I’ve been watching your videos really cool I would like to get into this hobby looking for a decent system. Not sure what I want to do yet. What kind of computer do I need or do you have a video on that?
Any computer is fine. My recommended printers are jle.vi/sovol if you have a low budget and jle.vi/bambu if you have a mid to high budget :)
An English speaking, Israeli, 3D printing content creator. Honestly kind of a rare sight. But glad to see 3D printing content from here though, and especially in English. Great production and content too. I have a bit too many printers and parts but frankly my organization surrounding them is a bit awful. I’ve been meaning to print a Gridfinity but it always seems like such a huge project.
Haha yeah. Though the famed designer Dizingof is Israeli too
Nice video! You showed a lot of cool things and the time spent on each one was just right! Looking forward to more of your work!
Thank you so much!
I am totally interested in the additional videos you mentioned! Love this channel.
Awesome! Thank you! Make sure you're subbed, I'm already working on one of them :)
Thank you for the great video. Being new to 3D printing I am just learning all that I can do with it.
i never need an excuse to spend money on 3D printing. bring on the tool list!
I would love to see a video of yours on more useful prints!
Did you see the 50 useful prints? :)
@@thenextlayer yes and I loved all the things to make to solve so many problems! Your channel is really good
The onhand project items list I'm here for.
Nice. I will do it!!
Yes, please list the various items to put together prints. I never know what bearings and screws etc to buy so I end up avoiding those prints all together 😏 I'm still not a boss at PETG so, baby steps for usable tools and brackets. I just like making these items in colors I love 😍 it's hard to find things in rosey purple ☺️ Have a great week! Thanks for these videos, keep it up! I appreciate the inspiration and advice! I'm an Ender 3 S1 Pro kinda gal right now and am looking at what I want my second printer to be like 🤔 too many choices!!
ON IT! :) Make sure you're subscribed.
Great info, I'm on board to watch your content. Just subscribed and gonna binge watch everything!
Thanks! The best is yet to come
Just bought my first printer and been looking at videos to learn more about useful tools, cool first time prints etc. never would’ve thought this was a newer channel, earned a sub for sure!
Thanks! The best is yet to come. What questions do you have? I like ideas for videos
I just discovered your channel, i'm sub, keep going !
Love all these tools ideas, i definitely will print some of them
Thank you !
First video of yours I've come across and it re inspired me to get some prints going. Great Video, Thank you.
Awesome! Thank you! Make sure you're subbed, I have much more coming soon...
Hey there. Just so you know. The fillet gauge is actually used to measure welding fillets. Many kinds of welds need a specific radius to comply with code.
I am just starting so the parts list of bearings and bolts would be excellent! thank you for this video
It's already live, check out my other videos :)
LOL, literally only just watched your last vid and left a comment saying "hell yes" to the tool vid and low and behold here it is just like magic. thank you.
Hell yes again to the 3d printing tools used in 3d printing vid. Loving this channel.👍👍
Really enjoyed that video, never knew I needed some of them.
"fill-et is something you put in the bbq" 🤣🤣🤣
The filament welder you linked in the description appears to no longer exist at that link. Do you happen to know of an updated link or any way I might be able to get the files? I have many almost empty rolls that I would like to splice together but the first one I tried was never very reliable
A list of common shopping list to have around would be nice, I am still wondering what bearing size I should have on hand
Thank you for the tools. It's great to see a master at work!
I just orderd my first 3d printer and binge watching your videos. Can't wait to start, but have to because the printer has not arrived yet. Thank you for your helpfull videos, I'm learning a lot!
NICE! Glad to have you here.
I know it's been a long time since the video went up but I have an idea for the drill bit holder towards the end. If you can't print anything that won't get eaten up maybe print a thing that holds the little plastic holder the bits come in. You'll have all relevant info right there to. That is if they come in like endmil tubes or whatever. Or hell melt a little wax or whatever they do after they reground endmil and send them back to you just twist it off and back on under whatever printed holder you have. Idk just an idea I don't have a printer and I'm not a designer.
Loved this video! Definitely printing that speed square asap. Thanks, and shavoua tov!
I feel like alot of these 3d print tool videos dont have much to offer, but this video has a lot of great ideas!! Cant wait to print the makita battery and charger holders
Awesome! Thank you!
Yes, interested in both a "tools for 3D printing" video, and a listing of "things" that you think are useful for 3D printing projects.
Also, if you've added some more to your gridfinity setup, splash a little of that into the above vids.
Oooh yeah. I’m doing a whole new drawer now so more coming soon
loved this video and would be very interested in all of the videos you mentioned that you could bring out in the future
They’re all out. Check my other vids.
I’m interested in that filament welder for sure!!!!
I preordered the p1p Bambu and it is shipped! Me and my friend bought 1 each to learn 3D printing together. it is tons of fun and cool to finally have bought one!
We are both Starters to this and we have done a lot of training and watching youtube guides :D
You're gonna LOVE it
Awesome. I'm gonna make some using my Tormach and anodize them. Thanks for the idea.
Pretty thorough. Something that can’t really be changed easily is your voice. You have a great voice for this. It’s very calm and understandable. Your not peaking all the time yet your inflection is sensed well. I think you may need more knowledge in general construction, but that’s not what this channel really is right? I’ll definitely sub and will be waiting for reviews and stuff like this video.
Edit: spelling mistake
Please yes video for tools! And not specifically 3d printed tools, but actual tools I need. I just got my first 3d printer and I want to not have to head to the store every time I see a tool I’ll need.
Thanks for making this. Some really cool little tools to print and use. You should so do all the videos you mentioned. Also more detail on that filament welder please.
Awesome! Thank you! Make sure you're subbed, I'm already working on one of them :)
@@thenextlayer The link for filament welder is not working
Well DONE !!! I learned a lot. Thx
Please do make a video regarding all the extra accessories you've found on your 3D printing jounrey! There are so many cool things I wanna print, but I'm not very knowledgable with nuts, bolts, etc. So if you can make a video of what you've come to collect that'd be really great! Thanks for this awesome video! It's taught me a lot.
ON IT! :) Make sure you're subscribed.
The list of supplies is a great idea! I would watch it.
Yours is by far the best selection of printable tools that are actually useful.
You're a clever guy. Please make more videos!
One small thing. Maybe set your camera to fixed focus because it wanders a bit during some of your presentations. A minor thing, to be sure.
I printed some of the Bench Dogs in PETG a few years ago. My only issue was after a year of usage the small tabs on the bottom started to break. I need to try orientation and/or ABS for the next batch. :-)
Bring on the video for tools to assist 3D printing! ❤
Absolutely would love a list of recommended stuff to order for bearings/nuts/bolts/etc!!!
It’s out check my other vids
What fold able work table are you using? I'm looking for a decent one right now
Stanley :)
I'm happy to have discovered your channel!
Brilliant Video that gives me a list of things to print for my workshop.😁😁
Glad it was helpful!
Wow this is really cool! can't wait to start printing the fillet gauge and the screw measure!!
Enjoy!
Hey man, I am also new in the 3D printing world, and this video is really nice, keep up the good work, for few items, presented here really gave me great ideas for printing. Thanks
Very useful stuff. Thank you so much👏👏👏
Glad it was helpful!
i work with leather as a hobby, you just opened my mind in such a ridiculous way that i think i can say you changed my world. thanks dude lol, now i really, really want a 3d printer
WOW! Thanks! that's a HUGE compliment. Check out the Prusa link in my description, I still recommend that one :)
Btw for all of the screw measurers and fillet gauge you don't need to print in 2 colors, you can print it in one and get spray paint. Spray some paint on a flat piece of cardboard and press the side with the numbers/letters onto the cardboard and voila, you have easy to read numbers.
Honestly you could just use a marker or paint pen to color the numbers
Yes to every idea you mentioned. Stiumbled on your channel and appreciate your work, Great video
Almost all of them are live now. Check the channel archive!
For a lazy suzan, you can also print two identical circular plates with a semi-circular profiled groove along the perimeter, where you put glass marbles as ball bearings.
Love this! I’m going to be all over the tool and battery holders!
Get it!
Geez, will take some into work. Thanks a lot!
my first printer is in the mail, excited to be joining the "makers"(?) ranks. these videos are super helpful, bc I have no idea wtf imma do with a printer lol.
For the bit holder trying print it as a mold, then using a silicon pour so it has some give and is flexible when cured.
I hope you are ok out there during this time!🙏🏼
I appreciate all your help on 3d printing as well!
Another great vid! Do you have a link for the cable wrap?
Uploaded just for you Steve! www.printables.com/model/303120-cable-cleat-cable-wrap
@@thenextlayer Amazing, thank you, it's much appreciated! Keep up the good work!
nice!.... nut 9:45 did you just put that corner hole jig on the wrong side? I mean, the holes should go from one board to the other... or was your intention to screw the board to the workbench?
Nice to see useful 3d prints. I just put together a table saw fence and used a lot of 3d printed parts. I think I might try those drill stops. I have a couple sets of the metal collars, but they always come loose. I print exclusively with PETG as my Microswiss all metal hotend always clogs with PLA.
Great video! So cool seeing one of my designs (the cold shoe clamp) in a high quality video made by someone on a different continent! Thanks for the mention!
So cool :) :) Thanks for the design
Once I get my 3d printer and go through a few small projects, one of the first "big" projects I want to tackle is making a dovetail jig. I'd be super happy if I could make something with the functionality of a Leigh super 12", but even if it all has to be fixed in place like a Porter Cable 4212 it will be a great boon to me.
Genius idea. So much money saved.
Ive been looking for something like the filet tool (idk if thats right) thanks!
Is there anything worse than not being able to get a tool in time? Yes... waiting 14 hours for the printer to finish printing the tool you need, then realizing you didn't put high enough infill so you've got 18 more hours to wait for the stronger version to print and hope its strong enough. Lol. Still, nice video man, its true that it helps to be able to print tools that are hard to get.
Great video! Thanks very much. Love 3d printed tools and handy gadgets.
Thanks for watching!
Not sure what could have gone wrong but I see the subtitles contents moving sooner that the text stops. Maybe add delay to them? (So they'll play later and therefore get on time . And not go forward like now for me
Love seeing a free open source sponsor!
Yeah, it's cool, right? :)
Great video.
I would love to see the two video options you mentioned
Coming soon!
I printed various tools. One in particular allows me to tighten 1/4 in nylon nuts for use on closure bar arm on our community gates.
