3d printing a gift is the modern day equivalent of when someone would crochet or knit a gift for you. I would take that over anything bought from the store.
accept knitting requires lots of time and effort, and 3d printing [a model off of thingiverse] takes approximately 21 clicks... (Not saying that Its wrong to do that cause I've done it plenty of times, but I feel like its much more personal to get a knitted, or carved gift)
Even if that thing from the store was worth around 100 thousand dollars?
It depends. My sister does crocheting, I've got 2 3D printers. The amount of work needed for taking a model from the Internet, throwing it onto an FDM printer and checking again after half a day or so cannot really be compared to even the simplest crocheting. The time equivalent would either be creating your own 3D models or doing 2-3+ prints on a resin printer, since preparing and cleaning the model takes so much more time.
@@Emily-fm7pt Not if you design the print yourself like I prefer doing.
@@Emily-fm7pt "time and effort"? I see you have never owned an Anet A8 haha.
Never did I expect this channel and Dank Pods to overlap. And yet, here we are
I had to do a double take when i saw it
"Last Minute Christmas Gifts to 3D Print!"
"You won't even have to leave the house"
Damn Angus knows us well.
and he knows we won't start printing for another 3-4 days 😆
Until you run out of filament.
Indeed he does lol
@@williamhuang8309 Matter Hackers delivers baby!
so true
I keep coming back to your last minute Christmas gifts videos every year lmao
ah a fellow yellow pfp
Lithophanes of family photos using white filament are a great personal gift aswell!
Digging that Dankpods Plug lol
I think I'm printing that fox tower for my dnd group.
There is no "personal effort" put into downloading and printing something. There is personal effort put into working a hard job and spending your money on something.
One thing I've been printing is lithophanes for my mom! I even designed a holder that holds the light and the lithophane so you could swap around whichever one you are using. She loves taking pictures so it's great being able to give back some of those pictures in a really neat way.
Very creative! Nice
Really like that fox tower!
I've been designing and 3D printing christmas decorations as gifts for about 5 years now. Got a desktop CNC recently so i'm carving them this year.
3D-printed gifts always make for excellent stocking-stuffers!

I'm printing a Stadia dock for someone who just got a Stadia, some prop cosplay drumsticks for a friend, and a glorious marble roller for the co-star...
I’m currently printing a gift for a family member. It’s a very large print 3+days in. Hopefully they’ll enjoy it when’s it done!
Love the cameo by Billie! And I've been printing the nesting puzzle boxes for about a week now.
I had just gotten my first printer, covid hit and caused me to be home 3 months. I learned my printer,slicer,fusion 360 and you were the first/best of my teachers. It’s all so addicting. Even the smell of pla printing will be etched in my brain forever. Thanks Angus!!!
I am utterly impressed that you learned 'fusion 360'. I 'bounced off' those tutorials several times before I gave up.
2:00 I cannot go 5min in my day without seeing billy somewhere!
It's the time of the year again where this video is useful!
Haha, those spinners Will be my primary choice !!! So great
Thanks Angus, and happy holidays.
I just got into 3d printing about a month ago and it's been a blast.
I definitely made some phone holders for gifts this year as well as coasters and SD card holders.
We've printed several lithophane night lights for Christmas gifts this year. Thanks to the online tools and tutorial videos, they're quite easy to make.
Printing someone something may not be "as much effort" as hand crafting an item, but it is a HELLUVA lot cooler than store bought.
If properly planned, you can make someone a multi-part large prop from their favorite game or movie.
Good luck buying that unless you're related to bezos
I'm printing a friend of mine an "ace of spades" hand cannon from destiny 2 for his birthday this year
I've been printing a nativity set on a card that you punch out the pieces and build it. It's new this month on Thingiverse. I've been giving it to friends and neighbors and am excited every time someone texts me a picture of theirs built and says how much they and their kids love it. Simple, but it has gone over great.
I’ve been printing custom designed boxes with a theme based around something the recipient likes and filling them with treats. Easy to design and print!
I've printed at least 30 Lithophane night lights this year. Sent them out with a family photo all over the country to distant family members and have some for our immediate family too. All this using a cheap knock off ender 3 that i got off amazon. This printer rocks and I get 100% perfect prints from it every time.
i like to printfoldable phone stands because they're universal and amaze everyone when you tell them they're made in one peice
Lithophanes... LOTS of lithophanes. I've been harvesting memorable photos for friends from their family members, and my family Christmas "card" is also a litho.
Those zig-zaggy rolling things look like good cat toys...
Great video, Angus! I think I'll be printing them whistling spinning tops for the nephews this year. Their parents will LOVE 💘 me for it!
Merry Christmas Angus. Hope you have a great and safe one.
Recently purchased and printed the locking dovetail gear box. One of my favorite all time prints. Thank you for these videos and designs.
Thanks!
@@MakersMuse- can you create loved ones like family members, friends and pets in 3D model ?
Been printing a ton of Santa Baby Yoda for friends and family. Also printed a bust and just painted it the other night for my Secret Santa
Wow you watch dank pods too
Now that's a surprise
I’ve been making “project trays” for the kids so they can stay organized with different arts and crafts. They seem to be useful and popular.
Wow that is the old D&D manual from the basic set around 1979. I actually have one.
It's my dads!
@@MakersMuse No wonder you are so awesome. ;)
heeeyyy!!! That was me on your phone! :D
Thank you Angus!! :D :D
This year I've printed a bunch of Mcgybeer's models, over on Cults3D. Lazy dogs, lazy reindeer, the little mini octopus. The new articulated tarantula looks awesome...
Watching your video in the middle of printing a tippi tree. Great christmas gift for my nephews.
Custom can handles and kobayashi fidget cubes were the gifts this year
Shew! I just got done printing some quick 1 hour gliders for the kids in the family!
Lithophanes, a bunch of lithophanes! I found a cheap frame at my local big box store and made a backer box to line with aluminum tape and LEDs.
I printed two Tippi Tree games with four different color sets of leaves. It took two and a half weeks of pretty much constant printing. That includes a few failures on a few 16 hour prints. But I can't wait for my kids to open it on Christmas.
Tippi Tree is an excellent game! Bought it when it was released. My family loves playing it.
I printed the Tippi Tree for my son & family, and also made a 3D puzzle of a local mountain range for my daughter and husband, following the guide by Make Anything. I'm thinking the noisy tops will be a nice stocking stuffer for the grandkids! :D
I've been printing off kit cards from thingiverse. Great selection from the F-16 to a X-wing. They are perfect size to send in the mail too.
New to the 3d printing world and find your videos awesome!!! I made all kinds of cookie cutters and stepped it up to a couple playable Ocarina's!! Thanks for all the tips, tricks, and ideas!!!
Love the channel, gonna print all of these!
Aw these are cute, I have a young nephew ill print some of these for! Good job finding and presenting them, thanks!
I only recently got my first 3D printer and made a few customised headphone holder clamps (the ones which use a threaded bolt to attach to different sized tables)
These were for friends of mine who have been working from home and didn't have somewhere convenient to put their work headsets when not in use.
A few have already been opened and they were a hit!
Well past Christmas, but this gave me a super idea for Easter. Thanks!!
Whenever I print a benchy, I usually just give it to my nephew. He loves them, and it doesn't go to waste
I made a Tippi Tree for myself when Devin started selling the model. Despite of me hardly seeing anyone at all right now, literally every single person who saw it asked me to make one for them. And now the people who know these people are asking me to make one for them. All of my printers are now basically Tippi Tree machines. In fact, I went back to check the license to see if it's even okay for me to print so many copies of the game - turns out if I don't charge for them, it's fine. So yeah, this is an amazing Christmas present for anyone, kids or adults. People love this fricken game.
where can i find the download for this tippi tree game?
These are such great suggestions! I will definitely be printing some of them
My family loves games, so Tippie Tree has been a godsend this year, I've been printing parts for them for over a week now!
(Thank the gods I have a decent library of filaments)
Currently printing like a madman to make gifts for Xmas! Organizers, extending toy swords, desk planters for succulents, kit cards and the like.
I found some nice gifts a couple months ago. I came across 3 anet a8 printers plus extra parts for a total of $20. I took each apart and rebuilt them right. Added BL Touch to each. Updated to the last Marlin and tweeked them out. I ran a test and they worked perfectly. So now my sons are each getting one.
Last Christmas I printer presents for my great Nephews and Nieces and they loved them. I did print age appropriate models
I've gifted personalized dice boxes to my D&D players, miniatures, small statuettes (Baby Groot, Stitch, etc.), personalized life counters for D&D/MTG, pendants, and as I like to tinker with LED lights, even a lithophane box with some significant photos in it :)
That spinning whistle is perfect for my 2yo nephew! Thank you
Keyword nephew not son...... Lol.
Haha good point. I dropped it after I discovered he takes 5 bucks for the file, I don't criticize him for wanting to sell it but personally the whole point of getting a 3d printer is to only pay for filament and pick from countless of designs online.
"personal effort" Haha, using a laser to make a custom chess set for a secret santa be like
And then 3D printing the chess pieces?
Just recently got a printer as a Christmas gift and I’m printing a rocket league trophy from Thingiverse for my dad. Very excited
Thanks mate. Love the things you bring out on your channel. Always interesting and intriguing. Merry Christmas.🎄⛄🎅
Great video! I got some prints to make this weekend!
Ever heard of the Aztek Death Whistle? You should do a Makers Muse version of this, as you have a way of over-engineering things and make them even more awesome.
This is such a huge help! I haven't been able to do a lot of Christmas shopping being sort of broke from covid, but I do have access to a bit of filament and these gift ideas are just wacky enough I know my family and friends will love them! Keep up the good work!
cant believe covid was 3 years ago
I cant wait to try some of these out this year
Thanks for the help
I would certainly add cookie cutters to the list, especially Christmas/games/movies themed. There are tons of those on Thingiverse and it is quite easy to create new ones, too, and they seem to be extremely popular, especially among baking-inclined women.
Cool and awesome prints there
Nice haircut angus! Looking sharp mate!
Nice stuff thanks. The key ring phone stands are perfect hand arounds 🙂
I made a travel salt/pepper holder for the mother of my wife as she really liked mine. For my mother I am printing a cookie cutter modelled after her dog, and some candle light shaders once again, modelled after her dog :D cookie cutters are really cool. We will also give them our custom gingerbread dogs and cats that we made with the prototype cutters
Hmmm... As a childless person with nieces and nephews, I believe I need to print a couple dozen of the screaming tops....
My siblings probably won't thank you, Angus, but I do!
Thanks so much for the ideas!
I don't think that printing out someone else's design is any better a present than buying something cheap and tacky
that fox is awesome
Haha that last one for unexpecting parents... Perfection.
still havent bought a 3d printer im just using off cuts of ceder and painting them as gifts
@Duke Nukem probably slices of fruitcake log with the fruit pieces shaped as broken crosses.
I 3D printed models that I modelled in blender that were dedicated to certain people .. and I posed them in a way so they can be phone stands as well..
I printed a few bag lids (basically clips that go on top of food bags with a plate and cap on them so you can seal things like coffee bags and have a twist off cap to pour it out) that I customised a bit and a sweeping name plate, which I've gifted a few times.
Thank you so much my family will be so happy!
Lithophanes are also a great gift!!
I have been printing covid-19 Christmas ornaments, flexi rex's and minisaurs and I have been including covid and snow flake card kits in the Christmas cards I have been sending out, thank you to the many designers and makers on thingiverse for making their work available
Looking sharp
I printed the Blink Fox. Oh My. Gosh. it's absolutely stunning. Printed with Eryone PLA Ultra Silk Red
Shericons are the coolest cat toys.
A resin version of this would be great for this year! (not biased at all)
Angus your a life saver mate
hey ill tell you something thats like magic to 3d printed stuff. you can electroform it with copper for under 100$ with mostly stuff from walmart and lowes . you just seal your 3d print in your conductive ink and drop it in the bath let it sit for a few hours and bam its covered in a thick layer of copper
I just got an SL1, and I've been printing puzzles inspired by your puzzle cube for family members (Different profiles for the sweeps, to adjust the difficulty.). The tighter tolerances I can get with it make them _very_ finicky to assemble since everything has to be lined up perfectly, but that's part of the challenge >:D
The difficulty of ending up with *_only_* four bodies after the cuts are done, while still generating a nicely complex geometry, was a bit of a surprise, it's harder than I expected, but satisfying when finished.
Thanks for the inspiration, and Merry Christmas.
Bought some wood infill PLA especially for printing nice looking christmas gifts. Wood filament has been challenging especially when I tried to make a models with SO MANY retractions, but I've got some nice pieces now
I like gifting "Snap Fit Ornament" by Adafruit with custom inserts
I have printed personalized Christmas balls for our whole family.
They came out great
You Are awesome!! Thanks for this video. Many great ideas and fun for the covid holiday!! Bless you.
These videos always make me happy!
I've been printing gifts, buying normal gifts, and giving gag gifts for the past 4 years. Last year I did the labyrinth gift box for my nephew. I like doing gifts for a person (like Twisted Fate from LOL for my other nephew one year, or a carousel horse for my mom). It is fun. I usually start in November since there are so many projects.
This year I customized a few things with my 3D pen and worked on decorations too. Though I am realizing that yes PLA wears too fast and does not like sun exposure. (I used my clear rafts, bits, and a Olaf kit to create a melted snowman yesterday, we'll see how it turns out) I'm not fond of PETG but we'll see how it wears. It is definitely a pain to get supports off, sand, and paint!
My dad is a car model maker and has pretty much taken over the painting of the objects I print. He likes the variety I do and is getting into making gifts as a personal touch. (I did vex him by messing up the Baby Yoda Christmas Ornaments on him with a dark wash though. lol)
I also like to use Facegen. Angus have you checked that out? I use it to 3D print family members as ornaments for the tree. Especially those who have passed recently. It is a good way to remember them and know they are still with us, if only in spirit. I am in production mode now printing 10 for the various family members now. It is fun for people to find them in the tree like the pickle.
Happy Holidays!
“And you won’t even have to leave the house”
Like I can anyways
I'm in the process of printing a lipstick organizer that's designed to fit in a medicine cabinet. And for added functionality, some spacers to allow a mix of two favorite brand/sizes
This year I printed 45 maze boxes (up from 30 last year) BTW there is a 10-pack of different mazes on Thingiverse too! Perfect for co-worker, friends, or just an extra if someone gives you an unexpected gift. I normally put some lottery tickets in, or other things if I know the person "partakes"
Some really great stuff!
The last one would be perfect for the kids of a friend of mine 🤣
