- In this video, we give you some behind the scenes insight on a few of the projects we have cancelled in our time as a mass production 3D print farm. We discuss the challenges we faced and the reasoning behind why we ultimately ended up shutting them down.
Join us in this video to learn more about the decision-making that goes on at Slant 3D and how we navigate the challenges that come with innovation and growth in the 3D printing industry.

About Slant 3D
🏭 High-Volume 3D Printing: Scalability Meets Flexibility
Slant 3D's Large-Scale 3D Print Farms utilize 1000's of FDM 3D printers working 24/7 to offer limitless scalability and unparalleled flexibility. Whether it's 100 or 100,000 parts, our system can handle it reliably, while still allowing for real-time design updates, ensuring products evolve with the times. This adaptability is key in today's fast-paced world.
🌿 Sustainable Manufacturing: Eco-Friendly Efficiency
Embrace a system that drastically reduces carbon emissions by eliminating carbon-intensive steps in the supply chain, such as global shipping and warehousing. Our approach minimizes this footprint, offering a more sustainable manufacturing option.
⚙️ Digital Warehouses: Parts On-Demand
Think of print farms as a "Digital Warehouse", meaning we can store your parts digitally on a server rather than physically on a shelf. parts are available on-demand, reducing the need for extensive physical inventory.

Interesting information. It is good to see examples of a nimble business model that isn't afraid to get out of unprofitable development cycles.
Iterate or die
I'd love to learn a bit more about the engineering and design that went into the printers you've made for your farm. Even if you can't share all the details, it'd be interesting to learn more about the most important elements and how they've benefitted your business compared to off-the-shelf machines.
Several old videos about that
V14 of the Slant Mason?! I d love to know more about what drove the different design decisions!
Would love a video on what makes a good farm printer
hey man would you open source the consumer 3dprinter design and parts so we could assemble one if we want? maybe even crowd improvements can be made, maybe you can even make some contest to follow certain requiriments and rank the submitions. you can maybe even call it something catchy like crowd iteration v1.2 and use some of those improvements on your own machines. oh god i have so many ideas haha
hire me
I’d love to know more about the farm management software.
I’d love to hear about the development of your printers and the lessons you’ve learnt. I’d also love to know about the decision to include the x stepper on the moving y axis. It goes against my intuition about reducing the moving mass.
Can you discuss the design decisions and part decisions of the slantbox?
yes especially over the iterations
Definitely. Your CoreXY printers seem to be better than 99% of what is out there.
I like the mason's corner pieces for the extruded aluminum beams, is the STL posted anywhere?
Yea you guys should have collaborated with a 3rd party to produce the 3d printers. That was a good idea and I think you should revisit it in the future, when your internal machines stablize.
That is not viable. We keep production of our hardware inhouse in order to accelerate iteration.
@@slant3d :(
This is so cool. So much inspiration from this video. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching
very inspirational, thank you for sharing
Great info in your channel. Thanks for the inside. Just a quick question. Did you consider open sourcing the design of the Mason 3D printer?
Nice plans, good stuff
Very interesting. thanks for sharing. I do exactly what you are talking about. When i design a product for sale if I cant find a way to stream line the production, it doesn't matter how great the product is, I don't sell it.
Good method
I thought the floating terminator head was CGI then I took a closer look...
Thanks
Love your hard work!
We try.
Can we get plans for the printfarm printers?
Would really like to build one of your machines, is there anyway of getting the design files or stl ?
It would be great if you can release the design of this printer.
Honestly can't wait to be able to buy filament from you. If you can really offer it at the price I'm basically already getting it for or cheaper. Why would I not order from you?
Thanks so much
Interesting video. Only downside to your vids is the white dot in the center gives me a quasi-heart attack that my screen has a dead pixel.
There's also a red pixel doing the same just left of his neck.
He might use the cam around lasers, sad to see the sensors die
Inspiring
Thanks
Do you sell that Arnold head in multi color? I could make it but I don't want to copy.
Where can I download the nifty test cube? (see timestamp 1:15)
You right, Back then , their was so much serious company try to sell their 3d printers, in France there was like 20 differents 3d printer brands, I don't even imagine how much in the entire world...But now chinese take over the world..and most of them go bankrupt
Were you quoting Ferris there at the end? czcams.com/video/nZBrXPMydEI/video.html
I cant even imagine how big slant 3d actually is
Trying to grow.
Pls sell filament
Coming very very soon
That is coming back very very soon
Can you also spin your head so all of it makes sense?😂😅😂
Appreciate what you do but covid is far from over. Over 20,000 people died in the US since the first of the year directly from acute covid and millions are currently suffering from long covid.
