- A few real-world workshop examples that make use of 3D-printing.
I hate how 3D printers are always advertised with the things they can make. Mostly figures or models of stuff that just looks cool in the first moment, but very few people actually need that.
That's why I didn't want to dive into 3D printing for some time. Since I then had access to the printer of my dad I came up with a few things that actually make good use of a printer for the workshop.
The materials I used were PLA and PETG. Everything that was white was PETG and the rest was PLA.
I use soldiworks for designing.

hast vergessen welches filament das ist^^ ich denke mal PLA :-) super Vid
Do you think 3-D printers are worth having in the workshop?
Ha ha ha.
@@GreenAbsinth08 according to his pages on thingiverse at least some of them are in PETg (the segmented hoses z.B.)
@@bobmvideos should be PETG, more durable and heat resistant than PLA. i would print in PETG or ABS.
Sometimes you seem like a wise old guy whose been around precision workshops for decades, passing on your skills to the _youngsters_ in the audience. I'm 74 years old and enjoy being one of the _youngsters._ Those endless examples of your high quality design & 3D printing had me captivated.
1+ (while a tad bit younger still)
Wise words...i hope they will reach their destination with all their meanings😊
Exactly, almost like uncle AvE

Bloody old Ghit! When in 1944 were you born?? Me, July!
He is an extremely sharp kid, I call him kid because I am 80. Love all his videos.
This is, BY FAR, the most practical use for a 3D printer in a shop i have ever seen on youtube! You made so many cool and handy things! wow
Bas Feijen True dat.
I've always sort of considered them expensive slow toy makers that had potential to make copies of broken parts. Then there is ANOTHER learning curve and questionable payoff PLUS where to put it in my limited shop space. . Now I'm actually starting to think this could be indispensable. Thanks for opening my short sighted eyes on this one Marius. Well done.
I’m a toolmaker and just received my 1st 3d printer, the truth is only engineering related professionals are able to take full advantage of these machines, and 3d printing channels are usually made by hobbyists
Super true! glad i found this channel today!!! Amazing Stuff
Good video as always but... no outtakes?? 😆
@@albertvillalobos1377 Sometimes they are very silly people! I'm in agreement with our host here, that mostly (99.9% of the time) the 3-D action is for something silly or pointless, some kind of trinket, something that could be made otherwise, something that's poor design. I'm spending a lot of time on this process b/c of my job, but in general wouldn't spend my own money on it. I have bought THOUSANDS of dollars worth of tools and books and welders and torches too. This technology doesn't in general do what I want! It does a lot of interesting and amusing things to be sure.
'Aluminium. Because to some people pronouncing it correctly is more important than the content of the video.'
Thanks buddy. You made my day :)
longbeachboy57 also, aluminium is the British way, in America it’s the first way you said it.
@Patrick Lenz if you're American but Americans originally got the spelling and thus pronunciation wrong, interesting history as to why if you care to look it up.
@@SirBigzalot I thought the British told us how to pronounce it and spell it, and then later changed it. But by that time it was ingrained into the vernacular of America. They also complain when we use US Customary units instead of Metric, but you can catch them all the time in videos using Imperial units.
@@jerrywhidby. To be honest its only the boomers who still use imperial lol
@@bubbyft3779 no I've seen plenty of Doomers using Imperial and Customary units too.
Some of these are pure genius! Btw i'm using this video of evidence to my wife that I need a 3D printer!
it may work against you.. you will end up making things for your wife.. dont let her discover thingiverse.. EVER!!!!!!
Did you get the printer?
would like to know too if you got the printer xD
Buy it yourself wtf.. you’re the men you should decide by your own 😂😂😂😂😂😂
So basically you need your wife's permission to get a 3d printer?
This is the first 3D printing video I think I've ever seen that isn't just some dumb "Let's print this C+ Yoda model... Again! BUT WITH GLOW IN THE DARK PLA!", but rather shows how powerful a tool it can be if *you actually have something useful to print on it*
Incredible quality of work, super practical, very well presented.
Thanks!
The magic is not useful stuff to print. What he has discovered and was able to achieve the skill to do is the REAL magic of 3D printing.
the ability to translate a desire in ones head into a model on the computer that the Printer could then replicate for him. IE the ability to go from MIND to MODEL to OBJECT in hand. that is the true magic and power of 3D printing.
I can dream up anything. almost literally anything. but if I can't "make it real" its just that. a dream. if you can learn to master even "basic" modelling skills (its amazing what you can make with tinkercad and you can learn tinkercad in 10 minutes or less) the sky is almost literally the limit!
there are many thing can be done if you are creative person....most of people cant afford 3d printing and expensive equipment always has something in mind to created thing..but they doesnt have resources for it...
I'm getting my first 3D printer soon, and I hope it'll be as useful as I expect. I tinker a lot with airsoft guns and also car stuff, so imagine it'll be very useful for making more complex parts that's too complex to do with hand tools.
You have some serious creativity going on that show a 3D printer is not just a new contraption for printing 3D models of Groot and D&D figures. I recently bought one and have so many things I want to print because the store items are too expensive or just don't quite fit my needs. I know it will take time a lot of failures to get it right but know it will pay off by being able to print things tailor made to my needs instead of having to use off the shelf things that kinda work.
You, young man have demonstrated beyond any shadow of doubt that you should be earning a very large salary ! I have enjoyed your videos for a long time and always learn something ... I'm 75 and have been 'technical' all of my life. I have several workshops at home and there are very few things I won't attempt. I don't have a 3D printer because I had doubts about the usefulness... you sold me, I am going to buy the same one you have ... you should be on commission ! Thank you, I know how long video making and editing takes. :)
David Cameron did you buy it or did you buy something else
Now we know what the former prime minister has been up to for the last few years in his shed!
I very rarely comment on CZcams videos but here I will make an exception. Firstly your spoken English is actually better than many English people I’ve heard speaking and English is their first and only language. It doesn’t matter if you use American pronunciation or British (although British is the correct way 😂) if people viewing your videos don’t like it, stuff them. Secondly for such a young person that doesn’t have decades of experience, I think you are close on genius. You clearly have a great mind along with numerous varied skills at your disposal. I am fast approaching 60 and I would be very happy just to have 10% of your skill level. I imagine your parents are extremely proud of you. Thank you for taking up your valuable time to share your knowledge.
My brit friends never stop harping on things in the US that are prounounced different or called by different names or when I don't know about something common for them. I never bring up the things I find different and odd though because I would just be the know-it-all American. And I left 60 behind a few years ago.... hehe.
@@mikeyoung9810 Right and the English have more colloquialisms that I could ever commit to memory, but then I'm American born and I would never criticize them for their slang usage. That's just rude. An example: wobbly bits=loose parts. Seriously, I sometimes wish that I had a translator available. On the other hand, this entire topic is unimportant and simply silly.
Steve 127 you scream like neurotic, liberal Democrat that starts , causes trouble where NONE is. So where's all those people for you to post. "if people viewing your videos don’t like it, stuff them." referencing to his way of speaking English. Seriously WTF does this post even comes from in your head. We are watching plastic parts being applied to great use. Add you LIE and comment on Y Tube a lot because your a liberal and they cant help making stupid comments causing trouble. If what you say is true. Then WHY this "rare comment' that's out of context .
@@johnknowing-zr8de Wow, speaking of "neurotic screaming"... Lighten up bro.
The American spelling and pronunciation is actually more accurate and more historically significant than the British version. The person who discovers elements gets to name them. Sir Humphry Davy, a British chemist, discovered this metal in 1808. Davy originally gave this element the name aluminum (um not ium) after the mineral alumina, whose name derive from the base alum which means “bitter salt” in Latin. This name was also documented by Davy in his book Chemical Philosophy. A separate scientist - who did NOT discover the element - decided that Davy’s spelling didn’t sound sufficiently Latin, and proposed the name aluminium(ium).
You had me at "skip the coil of a flexible hose".
Need to patten that one!
Very common in industry, but I like his 3d printed version's ability to change handedness
right its one of the most useful things i have ever seen i hate regular hose clamps
@@randomentity6553 ya for like 30 bucks and there super hard to find id love to be able to print some id print like 40 since i need like 40 lol
@@randomentity6553 Dryer and range hood hose clamps!
Dude...you're a 3D printing monster. Some really great precision there, upholding the German way of making things. Cheers! Chris.
That dust collection hose clamp is legit
@MichaelKingsfordGrayOver 100 people liked his comment and zero liked yours. Does that give you a hint as to whether you should think a little harder before pressing "reply" ?
@MichaelKingsfordGray What about your ad hominem directed toward Anchor Bait? I guess in your childish little mind, it's okay for you to lash out at others, but then you get all bitchy and defensive when someone calls you on it. Pathetic. I'm muting you by the way so don't bother with a reply.
These kind of people would be good on a Mars colony. Imagine 1000 like him.
Eventually they could 3D print more, right?
Hahaha, brilliant thought mate, just as brilliant as this guy is. Love his mentality.
Some people are born engineers.
@@jacoblakies9189, doesn't mean ya can't become one though
No they will not since there ain´t no such thing. These people are practical realist. Practical realism stresses the importance of the here and now, not lunar landings or any such no non sense.These people have no time for new atheist conventions or any other non sense.
I've watched a bunch of 3D printer videos, but this is the best one that actually shows the endless possibilities of printing useful objects. Excellent job Marius! You've got a great mind!
The aluminum/aluminium aside was perfect. Loved the "WTF?!" face.
Same here, that was great
Ditto. I subscribed based upon that point alone.
That cracked me up. I am used to Americans saying it differently (not saying wrong) but that WTF face was priceless.
@@thealchemist5376 Yes, and Americans already made that correction. ;-)
@@thealchemist5376 < - - - It must be a hoot at parties! ....... He was making that face because of twits like YOU!!!
Awesome designs!
Thanks Thomas!
Thomas and Marius, if you could make videos for machinists who have access to fully equipped machine shops it would help a lot of people out including myself. Essentially a very advanced theory series. Thomas, I have heard you say some mods would be difficult without a machine shop but lots of us do have it available and potential to integrate add and sub is too great to ignore. I just recently received a prusa mK3 and havent assembled yet because I feel I should re-machine a lot of printed parts
I agree.
Much better than yours.
Ihr wisst schon das ihr beide Deutsch könnt :P
@@goury hahaha burn
I love how everything is with actual purpose. You opened my eyes tremendously when it came to just the expectations a 3d printer can do. Not just models but actually useful stuff
You are proof enough that the main limitation to 3D printing is your imagination.
I’ve only been tinkering with 3D printer for a few months, but I am in awe of the sort of work you’re doing in your workshop.
Is 3D printing worth it?
Yes, you can make parts that don't exist and make replacement parts for existing equiptment.
that doesnt answer the comment. ab 50k dollar cnc machine can do the same but better but is it worth it ? depends on how much you need
@@Nick-hm9rh You can guy a pretty decent 3d printer for under $200. It's definitely worth it.
yea who would have thought! holy shit! Lol.. only an accountant would say it isn't "useful" anyone who has any type of tools can fix tons of crap with them
Oh yes and most people make things that you can make faster and cheaper with conventional metods, or make things that already exist and you can buy them for cheap.
But they proudly make this statement that IT WAS 3D PRINTED! It makes me laugh every time
ca be useful for quick fix parts, like some sort of pipe or pipe adaptor for a car or something
I watched this entire video with mouth agape. Such enormous creativity. Not shown are what must be some mad CAD skills. I am mostly now thinking about all those broken plastic pieces that I can recreate to repair things....
Echoing the theme of this video, it's the first time I've seen truly useful items using 3D printing, rather than models and prototypes. Also high enough resolution not to require significant machining after "casting" in the machine.
Marcus, please repeat in print the name of your system; thanks.
He was using a prusa Mk3, awesome printers, more expensive then many entry level printers, but really worth it for the quality. Can either be bought as a kit to build yourself or fully assembled.
This guy is a damn genius. Nice work man
You're a perfectionist, I've never seen a master who is so meticulous in the organization of the workshop. Every your design is so elaborate.
The fact that you published the files says it all to me, thank you young genius !
I've bought you a couple of things from your Amazon Wish List.
Enjoy and have a Merry Christmas Marius
Günter
Thank you very much! Merry Christmas Günter
Hi Marius, I watched this when you first posted back in Dec. I just watched it again. I love your ideas and designs. Thanks for sharing the files.
I think you have captured the essence of 3D printing. Thank you for taking the time to share work 👍👍👍👍👍
Incredible. Moreover, I love how everything “clicks”.
Wow! For someone whose first impression of 3D printing was less than enthusiastic, you sure have designed and created some truly useful shop and tool accessories.
Keep up the great work Marius!
congratulations your designs are incredible, thanks for your contribution to the community
Dear Marius. I’ve been watching your videos for a couple of years now. You are a great inspiration for me and my children. We’re hoping to get our workshop set up next year. Thank you for doing this. Best of wishes for the new year. Grüße aus Holland 😊
Wow those ambidextrous bridge hose clamps are brilliant. Great solve
I've heard that a "German joke is no laughing matter!" Your brilliance just showed me why... Keep it up Marius!
I HAVE DONE A LOT OF PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT WORK , AND MET TALENTED DESIGNERS , BUT , YOU ARE REALLY THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN ... THANK YOU FOR SHARING
Really nice work on designing those parts Marius, well done.
Marius, great video. Don't think I have seen so many useful parts from a 3D printer in one video before. Keep learning, creating and sharing. It is very much appreciated.
My 3D printer is my favorite woodworking tool. You demonstrated excellent use of it. Your designs are well thought out and I can tell you've spent some time on them. We'll done!
Justin Depew man!!!! i knew i forgot some one in my comment !!!!
@@leon_mnl thanks!
Justin Depew i editted my comment,thou shalt not be forgotten anymore!!!!
I totally agree with you
Absolutely brilliant, best video I've seen in a long time. I really like the way you design your parts, really innovative!
Dude you continue to blow my mind. Most of the stuff you do is on another level I would just never do, but those spiral hose clamps are something I might just make.
Absolutely everything in your videos "snaps together" and/or "fits perfectly"!
It's such a joy to watch this video! Seeing how practical 3D printed plastic parts are used is the only way to respond to someone asking "what's so good about printed plastic stuff?"
There're also many different types of plastics to print with to suit different needs.
Thanks for sharing your shop builds and designs!
Brilliant designs, Marius. Thanks for producing such a great video.
A lot of great ideas. I like the swan neck design for the dust hose!
WayofWood I think it’s goose neck, not swan neck, but please do correct me if I’m wrong
This was amazing, you have very creative solutions there! Keep it up!
This is the first 3D printing video I have ever seen, and I'm so glad it was. Now to check out some more of your stuff.
All of your prints are done well! The smooth air piping is phenomenal.
That hose clamp that jumps the coil. Holy shit I need one of those for my dryer
It was one of the best videos about practical 3d printed parts. Great job!
I am so impressed by your ingenious 3D printing projects - all beautifully designed and implemented. I very much enjoyed your video.
Brilliant job. Not just the video, the off-beat sarcasm or the great narration, but mostly the parts that you've created and implemented. You will most probably single-handedly cause a bit of a surge in worldwide 3D printer sales for a while!
I have no word to describe how awesome is this. Excelent job.
I am in awe of your genius! Amazing designs!
You have some seriously good skills with design... This is the true key to getting the most out of a 3D printer. If you can design stuff that you can think of, there's no end to how useful they can be.
Thank you for sharing your experience.
Very cool and very well done.
The ability to see a need for an object and then develop that into a set of plans and make an object from scratch is a very nice talent. Way to go.
This is an incredible video. I haven't seen so much ingenuity yet.
You've printed a huge portion of a workshop
@Marius Homberger The way you pronounced aluminum the first time is EXACTLY how I and most people in North America pronounce it, with that said, BOTH pronunciations are accurate, its just a matter of accent from where a persons english is learned, I know you take extra time on your videos trying to get your english grammar and pronunciations as accurate as you can but still even with that in mind, your english is damn good for someone that has not grown up in an english speaking environment.. Dont worry about what people say about your english, youre doing a great job, you speak better english than many immigrants that have lived in english speaking countries for longer than decade.
I really enjoy watching your content, thank you

Ditto, Marius has flawless english and his communication skills are fantastic.
The first invention of a new process for obtaining aluminum from aluminum oxide was formulated independently by Charles Martin Hall, and American chemist, and Paul T. Heroult. So the English pronunciation that you expressed as the correct way of saying the word has nothing to do with the proper pronunciation for the metal. English have more than just a stiff upper lip. Disregard those comments you're doing a fantastic job far and about 90% of us. I'm 70 years old and I'm getting great inspiration from your work.
He speaks better English than most people that have English as their first language.
*Eric Van Andel* that's the point of learning, ain't it?
I never accepted my own next language before I could tell which part of their country people talking to me came from.
Both pronunciations, what about alumium?
Thank you, and your workshop is rocking!
Freaking awesome video - inspiring to see your applications for 3D printing. Thoroughly enjoyed the hose clamps and snap together position-able hose.
Just found your channel, you are amazing! Might you show us how you design your own projects to 3d print? Also your detailed planning and creative ideas, and craftsmanship are truly inspiring!
Man, Those are some amazingly useful prints. Thanks so much for sharing, Subbed to the channel!
Dude, those are some very well-designed and extremely practical parts! Awesome job!
Brilliant, I'm currently planning my workshop and have actually ordered a 3D printer, since I have many ideas on small smart parts. You are on another level, but I hope to take some inspiration from this. Thanks SO much for all the great ideas.
You tell and show in such a way that it is not necessary to know the language, well done!
Brilliant. Not one single mini Warcraft figure in sight. And a great example of when a great mind and 3D printing combine.
Thank you Marius, this is a really wonderful, practical guide on the what can be accomplished with 3d printing.
Lovely! That's a pretty amazing workshop, and you found lots of clever ways to make it more amazing! Very nice.
Easily the best 3D printing video I have seen... Soooooooo worth it.
Sehr geil. Dafür das du erst keinen wirklichen Mehrwert gesehen hast ist über die Zeit doch viel entstanden. Aber auch das zeichnet dich aus... Man muss auch über seinen eigenen Schatten springen können. Sehr coole Sachen auf alle Fälle. Ist bestimmt die ein oder andere Stunde an Entwicklungsarbeit reingeflossen.
Hi Marius,
Only halfway through this video and I can already judge that you are very innovative and have made the best use of 3D printers. Unlike others who just print out figurines, you've actually made useful parts.
You are very skillful, keep the great work going
Beautiful creations. Really enjoyed the length to which you go to make everything fit together perfectly !!!!
I only use 3D Printing to solve problems and call it print for a purpose. Thanks for sharing
Very well thought out designs! You got me a lot closer to at least trying a 3D printer.
Dude... you TOTALLY NEED one! Great minds, think spatially, and the ability to output what's in your mind is great!
@@EcoMouseChannel Yes! Ja! (German for Yes!)
Great video, thanks for sharing (your files, too!).
As an older woodworker who is waiting on the delivery for Christmas of my first printer, a Creality Ender 3, I just wanted to say thank you for these great ideas. It completely backs up my decision to get a printer to assist me in my woodworking and you have opened up my mind to a whole new range of thinking over and above the plans that I already had. Excellent, thank you for sharing your hard work and great thinking, I, for one, very much appreciate what you have shared, thank you, again, excellent work 11 x 👍
Great stuff. I watch alot of videos and yours are awesome. Very educational and entertaining. You have great ideas and you are mitucular in your work. I use alot of your ideas in my shop. Thanx
Took me forever to finally buy a 3D printer, the first few prints where just figurines, but then i started selling them and then once the word got out i started to print and sell things like box joint jigs with locating pins to be used with routers, drill bit sharpener guides for a dremel, a pletora of other dremel attachments. I never really charge all that much because the time i spend on these attachments I think of it as i would have anyways so i just charge cost of material X5 to cover a few reprints plus extra material. In just 2 months the printer paid itself off plus mods, plus all the filament i have used and more. I need to perfect my template for gear cutting using a router table only by riding on the bit bearings.
Thanks Marius, I've been putting off buying a 3D printer, but this one made me think again. I really appreciate you sharing your design files and I hope I can achieve the same print quality that you showed in your videos. Frohes neues Jahr!
Excellent jobs: the results of your workmanship and the modest way these results are presented!
You are a bloody genius
He sure is.
Great video and nicely done. I've been waffling on the idea of getting into 3D printing for a while now, and your video pushed me over the edge. :) I ordered a Creality 3D S yesterday and I'm going to start making parts and tools with it. Thanks, Marius!
Wow. I was prepared for a casual video with some 3d printed clips and grips, but mannnnnnn you're a beast! Awesome awesome (awesome) work!
Nice work. All the "clicks" of the parts coming together are satisfying lol.
Especially that semi flex hose system. WOW that worked so nicely!
Marius, I’m really glad you found shop uses for a 3D printer!! I feel the same way you did originally. All the attachments you designed and made are great! It makes me think about it again.
Haven’t any of the plastic pieces broken or cracked?
What is the type of plastic (filament) do you prefer using?
It looks like standard PLA
white parts are PETG, the rest PLA. None of my parts so far broke.
This is some really amazing stuff. I 3D print (own a mk3 myself) and see a lot of "Here are my top 3D print" videos and if they aren't useless trinkets, they tend to be the same 5 "functional" items like a desk clamp and a cell phone stand. Your stuff is 150% useful and a lot of it is stuff I've not seen before. Granted I don't have a shop so it's mostly not useful to me, but I love to see when others use 3D printing to actually make their lives better!
Very cool and creative prints! 3D printing does take a bit to get into a mindset for so I am really glad to see you take off with it
Super! You must be an engineer f.i. for Bosch or building a space shuttle, Hihi, but compliments from me from Holland
Als Perfektionist macht das Video noch mehr Spaß zu schauen :D
Those holder's for the thread die's are an absolute charm!! Seriously impressed by those
So entertaining, I could watch stuff like this for hours. Thanks so much for this!
the biggest negative on 3d printing is time. granted you dont have to sit there watching the printer doing its job but you still need to keep an eye on it in case something fails and i dont have a good feeling about letting a machine work for that long all alone. other than that, i love my 3d printer a lot, even though its only a cheap version of the original i3, it still produces reasonable prints.
i managed to repair a lot of things in a bit over a year i own it now - it almost if not completely paid for itself.
TBH many of the newest budget i3 copies are as good if not better for a few brands in many structural aspects than the Original Prusa (I have an anycubic i3 and i have worked with a borrowed Original Prusa, and i can tell you the anycubic is more solid its all is made of steel, no plastic on structural parts at all). Other than some bells and whistles and safety features many budget printers lack they are pretty great. Print quality seems to depend more on slicer settings, printer firmware and filament quality, the hardware requirements for good prints are quite modest and are fulfilled by many but not all budget printers.
Marius du coole Socke, immer wieder sehr erfrischend deine Videos 😎👍
Deine Ideen und die Umsetzung sind grandios.

This is awesome!!! Great job. I'm subscribed now. The double blast gate is super cool.
Hey man, just shows with a bit of creativity what you can do with a 3D printer. One quick question, I couldn't seem to find the metal lathe adaptor design on your thingiverse, would there be any chance that you could upload the design as I would love to test it out in my college workshop. Cheers
That hose clamp idea is brilliant but then all of your ideas are good.
a-LU-min-um ? AL-u-mini-um ? LOL :-)
Thanks for the entertainment!
The dust collecting parts are genius, well done. Thanks for sharing...
Really impressed by your designs and also your ability to measure present object to modify it with 3d printed part
Finally! Someone actually printed something useful with a 3D printer! Hopefully others will follow your example as the world does not need any more tiny glow in the dark Yoda figurines.
This statement can be applied to many situations. All of them equally pointless to comment on
@@adamkent639 the irony is, your comment is pointless as well
You're right!

Great work as always Marius! Im not so sure I agree with giving away designs for free that would have taken a really long time to design... Sure its really nice of you but after all of that work you should get something out of it. I dont have a 3d printer but if anyone who reads this does and downloads the files then do the right thing and make a donation.
Yup. Donating is the answer, or putting something You did up for free Yourself.
Free open source might still be a strange thing for some in our fully monetized world, but opening Your whole professional world to access for people like Marius is the other half of a de-monetized world in which You can see his plans for voluntary donations (and I mean "de-monetized" in a very good way here)
manfred schmalbach I’m a Linux person and open source creator so on that side I definitely agree with you. I have heard lots of people who showcase 3D printed projects who complain that they just get asked for the files without even being polite about it.
That's a neoliberal thing I'm afraid: "Performance" used to be, in a more social-democratic or Keynesian sort of economy, the projects You finished TOGETHER, to make Your society a better place, be it mad infrastructure projects like publicly owned railway-building the European way, or be it full employment as a social virtue, or so on. Today, "performance" is what You stole Your neighbour, Your minions or Your society (in taxes for example) to brag about it Yourself as if You "earned" anything, what the ones bragging the loudest didn't, the least. That's why I brought up the open source idea with uploading Yourself - people don't even think this way these days any more.
We need more video's like yours that show the more practical value of a 3D printer in the shop. Good Stuff!
Man I really appreciate your attention to detail. Your shop looks awesome :)
3D printers are *perfect* when tool manufacturers go "No! We're not gonna be compatible with everyone else because we're better than everyone else."
You just gave me the idea to 3D print (and then piece together with soddering, a motor, etc) a small low-powered dremel tool
Not that $25 options don't exist, but... 3D printing!
