I’m genuinely touched by the level of appreciation in this video. Knowing that my work has inspired you is deeply motivating. And I totally agree with you. For me, it is also all about the beauty and 3D printing gives us the invaluable chance to try ourselves in creating it.
Cool that you are here! I also have the stag printed. And the bear, owl and two sizes of your trees. Didn’t know about the deer. Will print it too 😊 I have them standing around a ”campfire” A small candle inside a round printed thing that shows the character Stitch from Lilo and Stitch when light comes through it. (Cool that the precision and design can be done that way) The owl sits on an actual rock so it is not directly on the table. Thank you!
Great video! You’ve clearly put a lot of thought into explaining your process, even down to the thumbnails, which is awesome. One small suggestion: the drink in your hand might feel a bit out of place for younger viewers who are just getting into 3D printing. It’s worth considering the wide range of people who’ll watch and learn from your content. Keep up the great work!
I‘m constantly caught up by my printers work and precision and speed, watching every layer been created :) The possibilities are that endless and I‘m absolutely with you.
I’ve been looking into 3D printing lately, and I feel tired and a bit sad seeing only popular character prints, mass-produced stuff and online shopping. Thank you for showing the real beauty and art in 3D printing. This is so inspiring!
I purchased the A1 combo and got it 2 days before Christmas. It’s been running non stop since then. I’ve watched countless hours of 3D printing videos but have never seen one in person. The first time I saw mine printing something (a benchy, of course) it was really mind blowing!!
Just what i needed! I just ordered an A1 Mini because of your motivational speech. I will send this to my wife if she throws a tantrum when it arrives. Thanks!
New subscriber here. I love finding genuinely passionate people! The way you shared your passion was so beautiful… You’re good with words and expressing yourself. Also, you have a nice calm voice, with a nice tone. I hope I get to watch more of your passionate videos about 3D in the future
Wow, every single comment I've read on this video has been so heartfelt and genuine. Sadly that's a rare thing to see online. I wish more people could experience 3D printing too.
I couldn't agree more with everything you said in this video! I see my printer as an appliance in my home more than a DIY hobbies thing. It's nice to hear someone else say the exact words I've been preaching to everyone I know since getting my printer. Keep printing, keep making videos! New subscriber here. Cheers!
I got the dispatch notification for my Bambu Lab A1 today, so finding this video in my feed is timely indeed! I have been looking forward to finding fun things to print but also thinking of functional items to design myself but I had not really considered the beauty of the process. Lots to think about presented in such a short amount time. Thank you.
To say it in your words - it is a beautiful video 👍 I discovered 3D printing 5 years ago but have never seen it from that perspective. I would have described it as the most useful and creative tools I have ever owned. But your explanation opened my eyes and I'd say, I totally agree with you.
I also have the stag printed. And the bear, owl and two sizes of his trees. Didn’t know about the deer. Will print it too 😊 I have them standing around a ”campfire” A small candle inside a round printed thing that shows the character Stitch from Lilo and Stitch when light comes through it. (Cool that the precision and design can be done that way) The owl sits on an actual rock so it is not directly on the table. I share your passion.
Nice take, im just getting into this hobby, 380 hrs on my p1s and im loving this wild ride. Designing and modifying prints for functional use is so satisfying.
I see a lot of familiar designs in this video. Your photos seem to be authentic. My initial joy in the 3D world was kind of damaged when I came over lots of AI generated models. So to see you touching the models in "real" makes my heart sing. 3D makes my heart sing. Good luck for the contest! My Bambulab became my first stop in the morning with a cup of coffee in my hand and sometimes the last stop to check if the filament doesn't run out over for the night. PS: when I first saw someone from another part of the world printed my design I felt there is hope for the world. 3D can bring us together.
Oh I love your thoughts here so much. Thank you for sharing this. Completely agree that this is the most optimistic thing I've found recently to bring people together. And I'm very similar in that I love to have a print finished first thing in the morning. I get up before it's light out, let my cats out, start the coffee machine and then go out to the garage to see the results of the overnight print. The days I forget to start something for bed are sad LOL
I totally get your point! In centuries past you'd have needed a dedicated blacksmith/carpenter and tons of time & resources just to create a few 'custom objects'. Now we can do it in our homes quickly and inexpensively. There's something about creating objects that hits something primal in our brains I think.
Knowing what I know now about plastics and how they interact with there surroundings, I would never want a PLA, PP or any other filament close to my food. That said I love the deers you showed they look stunning, also the napkin rings, beautiful. Sadly, the ilusion of a highqualtiy 3D print falls a part once you touch it, see it up close and lift it. Latest then it is missing the weight of something truly made out of quality materials. An item made out of glass, wood or metal just directly sparks and really makes you to enjoy that unique art piece. Plastic gives me the feeling of a cheap throw away, single use item.
I thought so too, but there's certain applications like decor that I would often purchase something plastic anyway, like a halloween candy dish or a planter. I'm finding there's a lot of really elegant solutions that is rarely talked about with 3d filament. As far as food goes, check out the video i reference about this topic in the description of this video. It's really not a black or white issue like I once thought. And let me know your thoughts.
Love this video. Excellent points to it and I couldn't agree more. I just got myself a resin printer (first 3D printer ever) and it's been a little bit of a challenge. Although, like you... I want to get into the design aspect of it also, as it's a much more personal experience than just downloading others' designs.
Beautiful video! It is amazing watching these things work and how well they make things now. I remember seeing a 3D print in person for the first time in 2017. I've heard of them before then but this was the first i saw with my own eyes. I'll be honest, it was awful. But seeing how far they've come in a short time frame is incredible. And what are you drinking there? I enjoy Woodford Reserve myself.
That stag is 3d printed?? I don't know how it looks in person but on video it looks so perfectly smooth I genuinely thought it was moulded (or you bought it). Actually insane
Kenobi, don't be fooled by pretty videography. This is an advertisement for Bambu Lab machines.. They are great but there isn't that much of a difference compared to other machines. Notice how the prints are presented in the video.. of course you would see the typical imperfections when zoomed in or in real life. I love my Bambu Lab printers as well but this ad paints an idealized picture of their print results..
@@acalavidyaraja Eh, probably. But I'm somewhat of a minimalist and I live in a small apartment so I don't really have the need for any printer no matter how good or how cheap it is so I don't really care much either way
I actually never praised Bambulab above any other company, watch it again. Not sure how you arrived at that. I mention that I love their pla wood filament, because I do. And as far as the video quality, I used no filters, I'm not smart enough to know how to do that yet. Just a good camera (lumix g7) and a couple lights Sorry to rain on your rain snark parade. ;-)
hehe, yes! do you sell stuff or just print out stuff for gifts? I haven't tried selling anything yet, right now I'm just deeply enjoying making stuff for myself and friends.
Great video man. I don’t want to tick anyone off, but here is my honest opinion of 3D printing: I am intrigued but a little disturbed to see that the hobby has become affordable and open enough that many people, with no former design experience, now buy and use printers to make Mario figurines in ten different sizes or Minions key holders, or other things I personally deem to be useless junk. I am someone who appreciates the beauty, like you do, of well-designed, useful, or artistically exceptional printed items. Yet just as the printing press allowed junk (or what some would deem it) to be printed alongside Socrates and Homer and the Bible, so too should I expect that beauty won’t be found in everyone else’s printed junk, and that’s okay. It’s easy for me to get judgmental. “Another Deadpool AA battery holder? Really?” Yet there is so much good to balance out the bad, and ultimately, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. While I personally disagree with many people in the hobby, I am so impressed by the creativity it enables. Everyone should have the right to use this tech as they see fit. At the end of the day, it’s an insanely powerful technology and it’s cool to see it used by so many.
Lovely video. Well, I have been thinking to buy a 3d printer since 2016. Now I'm happy I waited because I'm about to buy the cheap and awesome (a friend of mine has one) A1 mini. I am learning Blender because I want to design and create my own stuff. Exciting! And a great community too
Lovely video, it is truly mesmerising to see objects coming out of the printer, especially with the high speeds. But I have to say that the enjoyment started for me after I got a bambulab p1s. I have other printers and I had to spend more time on the machines themselves and getting them dialled-in than the actual printing: no enjoyment there, did I learn a lot from it ? yes ofcourse, but do i need that knowledge now ? no ;) FYI - if you like the wood type filaments, you may appreciate polymakers polyterra series as well - those hide layerlines quite well and turn out beautifully matte with subtle colors.
Very nice video. I'm looking into 3D-printing as well. The creativity this can unleash is so special... I can't even describe it. And yes, I definitely had to think about the replicators, too. But even more about how this helps to realize all kinds of things without the "tedious" parts. While I love woodworking, I'm annoyed by the effort it often takes to get to the finished product. Or think about stonemasons. The actual art behind it is the design you have in your head, the chipping and hammering is just a necessary step to get to that desired design. The only problem I have with 3D-printing: It's all fossil plastic crap! As someone who tries to not produce unnecessary waste, this really annoys me. And I wouldn't print anything that comes in contact with food items. That said, I hope that we will get a few new breakthroughs soon, so that we have access to cheap bioplastics for printing and a good way to recycle everything.
Thanks for your comment, and loved reading your thoughts about the challenges of woodworking. Couple quick responses tho, 1. is that most 3d printed fillament that I know of (PLA specifically) is made from sugarcane and corn, and actually biodegrates in less than 10 years in landfills, from what I've read. I don't like the waste either, and it concerns me, but when i found this out I was glad to hear it's not nearly as bad as most plastics. 2. the food safe issue is complicated. The real answer is "it depends" on how you use it. The concern is bacteria growing in between the layer lines. But for most of the applications I use it for, washing thoroughly with soap and water and letting it dry real well has been totally fine. But of course you do what you're most comfortable with. There's a great video in the description of this video that I reference that you should check out on this subject.
@somethinganalogue Thanks for your answer. I never got far enough into the matter to check the different filaments and maybe my knowledge is a bit outdated by now. What you wrote does indeed sound good from an environmental standpoint, so big thanks for correcting me here!
Please be aware that 3D prints with hobby grade printers are to be considered not food safe for several reasons. You need at least to do some post processing like eg soaking them in food safe resin
Thanks, yes, i have lots of disclaimers on my Butter Barn video. However I have to agree with the advice from Slant 3d, that you can see here: th-cam.com/video/LAGc4GKDeoU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=bTwu3ppkZqGSf41W&t=1619
I was always told that you can NEVER use 3D prints that touch food. Like a cracked coffee mug, bacteria will leech into the micro crevices and become poison. Am I incorrect?
There's a lot of debate about this, and safety should be first. But after much research on this subject, the real answer is "it depends", and is extremely based on the context of how you use it. I used to feel the same way, about it being very black and white. Check out the video i link to in the Butter Barn description, it really changed my mind on this. makerworld.com/en/models/782718#profileId-720006

Heads up: 3D prints are NEVER food safe! Even with special materials, you always have these super small cavities between the layer lines that are the perfect place for bacteria to grow in. Therefore even though it looks pretty nice, your butter container is a bad idea.

I like this video. For me it is exactly the same. You express perfectly what is also happening to me. Its so much fun. I have one question. Did you use a ai generator to generate your thumnails? I'm still looking for something like that. edit: i found your video about ai 👍 th-cam.com/video/fJXLgb0D1vo/w-d-xo.html
Awesome. Yes, I made a entire video just about AI backgrounds. I truly believe that the object itself needs to be a true photograph so that it’s real and legit. That being said if the background can enhance the image, I think that’s fair game. What are your thoughts on the situation?
@ I think it's a good solution if you can't or don't want to take elaborate product photos yourself. AI can create sensationally good images. Why not with our products? I just haven't found a good provider yet. I suspect that the free "stable diffusion" model is behind all online solutions. Unfortunately, it doesn't work on my mac mini m1. It's too weak and has too little memory with 16GB. But that will be the future.
Hey... Don't you ever start another video without telling us what you are drinking first... Priorities man... priorities... Seriously though, I am amazed at what can be accomplished on a 3d printer these days. Enjoyed your take on things.
You know then that PLA wood you are "using" for butter is not food safe for repeated use correct? PLA is known to harbor bacteria. While it might be fine for wrapped candy or single use, you should never repeat use PLA dishes, etc.

That's quite an saccharine ad for Bambu Lab... They make great printers though.. I have two of their A1s. This heartstring pulling kind of covert advertising feels really sleazy though.
I can see how it might come across that way to some people. But I was speaking from my truth and experience. I have no affiliate with Bambu lab or any printer company, so not sure why you found that sleazy.
I’m genuinely touched by the level of appreciation in this video. Knowing that my work has inspired you is deeply motivating. And I totally agree with you. For me, it is also all about the beauty and 3D printing gives us the invaluable chance to try ourselves in creating it.
You're a genius man. Really love your work. Thank you for sharing it with the world!
Cool that you are here!
I also have the stag printed. And the bear, owl and two sizes of your trees. Didn’t know about the deer. Will print it too 😊
I have them standing around a ”campfire” A small candle inside a round printed thing that shows the character Stitch from Lilo and Stitch when light comes through it. (Cool that the precision and design can be done that way) The owl sits on an actual rock so it is not directly on the table.
Thank you!
The emotions of the realisation that you can now create close to anything you can imagine is trully lifechanging and breathtaking)
Very well said. :)
Love the vibe of this Video. Love seeing someone talk about something theyre passionate about. Nice work
Glad you got something out of it!
Great video! You’ve clearly put a lot of thought into explaining your process, even down to the thumbnails, which is awesome.

It’s worth considering the wide range of people who’ll watch and learn from your content. Keep up the great work!
I'll keep that in mind for future videos, thanks for the feedback!
it could have been a flat diet coke tho too!
I printed a the stag and doe for my wife for Christmas she loved it. Absolutely beautiful model!!
I bet she did! It's such a nice, thoughtful gift.
I‘m constantly caught up by my printers work and precision and speed, watching every layer been created :)
The possibilities are that endless and I‘m absolutely with you.
Glad I'm not alone!
Thank you for sharing your perspective and contributing to the 3d printing community
My pleasure!
I’ve been looking into 3D printing lately, and I feel tired and a bit sad seeing only popular character prints, mass-produced stuff and online shopping. Thank you for showing the real beauty and art in 3D printing. This is so inspiring!
I feel you! There’s so much more to it than just printing popular characters. Thanks for watching!
Amazing video, you're a natural communicator - Subscribed!
Welcome aboard!
I purchased the A1 combo and got it 2 days before Christmas. It’s been running non stop since then. I’ve watched countless hours of 3D printing videos but have never seen one in person. The first time I saw mine printing something (a benchy, of course) it was really mind blowing!!
I had that same experience when I started. I still sometimes just stare at it printing in awww for long periods of time.
Just what i needed! I just ordered an A1 Mini because of your motivational speech. I will send this to my wife if she throws a tantrum when it arrives. Thanks!
Boom!
lemme know how many dishes she breaks when she sees what you've done.
It must be everywhere the same with wife and 3D Printer:D:D
still have the Bambulab? :P

I'm looking into 3D-printing as well. The creativity this can unleash is so special... I can't even describe it.
And yes, I definitely had to think about the replicators, too. But even more about how this helps to realize all kinds of things without the "tedious" parts. While I love woodworking, I'm annoyed by the effort it often takes to get to the finished product. Or think about stonemasons. The actual art behind it is the design you have in your head, the chipping and hammering is just a necessary step to get to that desired design.
The only problem I have with 3D-printing: It's all fossil plastic crap! As someone who tries to not produce unnecessary waste, this really annoys me. And I wouldn't print anything that comes in contact with food items.
That said, I hope that we will get a few new breakthroughs soon, so that we have access to cheap bioplastics for printing and a good way to recycle everything.
Thanks for your comment, and loved reading your thoughts about the challenges of woodworking. Couple quick responses tho, 1. is that most 3d printed fillament that I know of (PLA specifically) is made from sugarcane and corn, and actually biodegrates in less than 10 years in landfills, from what I've read. I don't like the waste either, and it concerns me, but when i found this out I was glad to hear it's not nearly as bad as most plastics. 2. the food safe issue is complicated. The real answer is "it depends" on how you use it. The concern is bacteria growing in between the layer lines. But for most of the applications I use it for, washing thoroughly with soap and water and letting it dry real well has been totally fine. But of course you do what you're most comfortable with. There's a great video in the description of this video that I reference that you should check out on this subject.
@somethinganalogue Thanks for your answer. I never got far enough into the matter to check the different filaments and maybe my knowledge is a bit outdated by now. What you wrote does indeed sound good from an environmental standpoint, so big thanks for correcting me here!
Please be aware that 3D prints with hobby grade printers are to be considered not food safe for several reasons. You need at least to do some post processing like eg soaking them in food safe resin
Thanks, yes, i have lots of disclaimers on my Butter Barn video. However I have to agree with the advice from Slant 3d, that you can see here: th-cam.com/video/LAGc4GKDeoU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=bTwu3ppkZqGSf41W&t=1619
I was always told that you can NEVER use 3D prints that touch food. Like a cracked coffee mug, bacteria will leech into the micro crevices and become poison. Am I incorrect?
There's a lot of debate about this, and safety should be first. But after much research on this subject, the real answer is "it depends", and is extremely based on the context of how you use it. I used to feel the same way, about it being very black and white. Check out the video i link to in the Butter Barn description, it really changed my mind on this. makerworld.com/en/models/782718#profileId-720006
I feel the same, the ability to think of some "widget" and it be in you hand within a couple hours is terriffic. Good luck with your designing.
thanks!
You speak daTRUTH! Great video!
I appreciate you watching!
That butter dish is beautiful! But it's not food-safe. Bacteria can grow in all the little gaps and pores between the layers.

Is this the Lego Brick tutorial at 1:45? th-cam.com/video/iJO2dhjj6-s/w-d-xo.htmlsi=IeG9SeCZt0c5URqH
No, it's this one: th-cam.com/video/d3qGQ2utl2A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=6hYF5Exq1oxj5rL8
Heads up: 3D prints are NEVER food safe! Even with special materials, you always have these super small cavities between the layer lines that are the perfect place for bacteria to grow in.
Therefore even though it looks pretty nice, your butter container is a bad idea.

Is it just me... or do you look like an older brother of LGR?
Interesting comparison! What is it-my voice, my vibe, or the glasses? 😅
@@somethinganalogue the looks and vibe.
I like this video. For me it is exactly the same. You express perfectly what is also happening to me. Its so much fun.
I have one question. Did you use a ai generator to generate your thumnails? I'm still looking for something like that.
edit: i found your video about ai 👍 th-cam.com/video/fJXLgb0D1vo/w-d-xo.html
Awesome. Yes, I made a entire video just about AI backgrounds. I truly believe that the object itself needs to be a true photograph so that it’s real and legit. That being said if the background can enhance the image, I think that’s fair game. What are your thoughts on the situation?
@ I think it's a good solution if you can't or don't want to take elaborate product photos yourself. AI can create sensationally good images. Why not with our products? I just haven't found a good provider yet. I suspect that the free "stable diffusion" model is behind all online solutions. Unfortunately, it doesn't work on my mac mini m1. It's too weak and has too little memory with 16GB. But that will be the future.
Hey... Don't you ever start another video without telling us what you are drinking first... Priorities man... priorities... Seriously though, I am amazed at what can be accomplished on a 3d printer these days. Enjoyed your take on things.
My bad. LOL Bulleit Bourbon ;)
You know then that PLA wood you are "using" for butter is not food safe for repeated use correct? PLA is known to harbor bacteria. While it might be fine for wrapped candy or single use, you should never repeat use PLA dishes, etc.

That's quite an saccharine ad for Bambu Lab... They make great printers though.. I have two of their A1s. This heartstring pulling kind of covert advertising feels really sleazy though.
I can see how it might come across that way to some people. But I was speaking from my truth and experience. I have no affiliate with Bambu lab or any printer company, so not sure why you found that sleazy.
@@somethinganalogue You even hashtagged the video with bambulab
