The reason for those holes being slightly small, and the outer diameter being slightly larger is because as the hot plastic is dispensed, it tends to settle a bit and bulge outward, as the print gets taller the warm plastic weighs down the plastic below it squishing it just a tiny amount, so your print will tend to end up slightly wider, and slightly shorter than designed. I'm talking fractions of millimetres... but it can be easily worked around once you learn the idiosyncrasies of your machine, the type of plastic and heat of the nozzle. You can reduce this bulge and squish by tweaking those variables, obviously hotter plastic will run and bulge more, some types of plastic will set faster before they have a chance to squish or bulge, and these can be easily rectified by hitting up a forum and asking around what plastics and settings work best for high fidelity, or accurate prints. Hope this helps anyone, I doubt Colin will see this, and anyway it's waaay too late! Haha but if anyone is helped by this at all, I did my job.

I love seeing the process like this versus the ones where you just show us the final process after you've figured it all out. You're super inspiring to people like me that want to tinker and create but have never really done it before! Thanks for that!
Hi Collin, the accuracy of most 3D printers depends on software and such. As far as I know many printers don't compensate the wire thickness it prints. So you're wire thickness is probably about 0.2mm wich makes the end result about 0.2mm. So if compensate the wire thickness in your CAD drawing you should be able to reach a better accuracy.
I see a lot of questions regarding the "module" used in this project, Big Clive demonstrates the exact same module. They put out about "20-40KV" and are only a couple of quid to buy.. Check out Clive's self test of it :) do a search for "Big Clive stun"
Sorry it’s late but if he used pepper spray what oil based then tazed the person it could light the person on fire so in that cause he’d have to use a water based pepper spray
GameBreaker yeah, if you'd really want it to be useful then you'd have to hollow out the walking stick and put all that stuff inside of it. Plus you would need a more powerful battery and an easy way to recharge it. The idea is pretty cool and has potential.
You'd be surprised at how much the weight of a metal pipe would negatively affect it's utility as a walking stick. It'd kill an old person's wrist using it.
if you adjust the layer height in the 3D printing slicer, the finish will com out nicer but you will add a ton of time to the overall print. it all depends what you want. you can also speed it up in the slicer as well as slow it down. for me, if i were to print something tiny, i would lower the layer height to about .1 and lower the speed down about 10mm /sec . i really like seeing 3D printers out there more and more. have fun with it.
The piece that you 3D printed is a little bigger because its the size of the plastic added on to the intended diameter so if you make the diameter 59.80mm then it should add the .2mm and the final piece will be 60mm.
The trick with getting holes to print right is to print a calibration cube and figure the tolerance of your machine. I add .2 mm to my designs when I need something precise, and it prints pretty well!
The dimension diference in the CAD and in reality is totaly normal and is called tolerances. You need to design with this in mind, for 3d printing the value used are between 0.1-0.3mm depending of the fiting you want (tight or loose). Great project and video as always, keep up the good work !
I would love to see these two work together. Think about it, they are polar freaking opposites. Colin is practically Wallace from Wallace and Gromit, with a love of life and his inventions being for the improvements on one's quality of life with some destructiveness on the side. He's the epitome of Chaotic Good. Michael on the other hand is a misanthrope who hates himself and others with a dark sense of humor and a knack for inventing and programming, ergo, he's Chaotic Evil, at least his online persona is. Seeing these two create something together would be a clash that would make for some interesting videos.
Fantastic Colin. OAPs can really kick ass now! I have a spare HV converter, maybe this is the project it's been waiting for. Yep, I have 3D Printers too. Happy days.
An 0me check out Peter siripol I think I spelled his last name correctly he used to work for a company called FliteTest he started his own channel that is where he built his biplane
For your 3D printer I would advise printing some accuracy tests and stress test pieces. They can easily be found online and used by everyone. Best thing to print with a new printer to make sure ur getting the best prints. XRobots might be able to help with that.
You can not leave the filament out as it absorbs moisture. Build a plastic box for the filament with a hole to feed out of and throw some dry cells in there. Also you should encase the whole printer in a box to hold the heat in. With these two things and a few adjustments your prints will work MUCH better. You should have put it all in a PVC tube or something to make it look like a normal cane from the outside and the battery and sparker are not that big.
I just got myself a welder and a compressor meaning i can finally get started on building airguns (low power ones, but with some big caliber). I am so excited, you can´t imagine! Also i am German so i am kinda competitve and that is the reason why i would like so see your take on it! Good Luck and have fun.
You have a drill press with a movable vise... put an end mill in your drill press and use it like an end mill. You can drill and cut holes and slots in soft materials.
"Now, old people tend to walk around in fear..." What exactly terrorizes the elderly population of the UK, Colin? Should the global community be concerned?
You can play with your settings and you should be able to get rid of the vinyl texture nearly completely, and the tops/bottoms would be a lot smoother.
Colin, plz make a console microwave, like for a car, that you can just plug in to the electric socket(if the car has one) and microwave things on the fly without having to stop at a rest station, gas station ect. It should open from the top and have a rotating table on the 'bottom' side. Then you should microwave some tiny foods, mini pizzas, little pastries, mini hamburgers and such stuff. Absolutely love your channel and hope to see this microwave invention make it from my head, to yours, and then all the back to my phone screen over TH-cam :)
You beauty! I always remember as a youf seeing how old people were treated and thinking when I’m older, I want a cattle prod if things are going the way I see it going!
Just a heads up Colin, I assume you are printing with PLA, while it is pretty tame compared to ABS in terms of fumes, I would still suggest a ventilation setup just for the printer along with that of the bunker just to make sure the fumes do not stay in the bunker any longer then they have to.
Can't do that on a lathe? Ever thought that toolpost might be good to hold components? And the chuck or collet might hold endmills etc. while the toolpost moves?
You should try using a filament with some wood fill in it. I've seen it before and it's sandable and paintable and I think even stainable too so it won't look like a vinyl record with all the layers. Possibly a much more stylish mach 3 coming?
Old people never need walk in fear again, sorry for late upload I've been on the roof but thats 2 videos away haha.thanks for watching. SUB

So happy you have officially joined the 3D printing community!
i don't want to be a part of that community, i've seen some "interesting" things...
dont let a few weird things discourage you from getting something that can make you lots of things (aside from the weird things)
I totally agree! I like how he talks about the pros and cons of printing and compares it to using his lathe.
don't let one bad experience with an adult toy ruin hours of possible failed prints
I kinda hoped he would have made a 3D printer on his own.
This is a delicate piece of equipment.
25 seconds later: Yeet's it down the hole of the bunker to step on it straight after.
Me: Roflmao
I think those screws might be more dangerous than the shock itself
I'm starting to realize how dangerous Colin is going to be when he is an old geazer
I'm sure he will be sponsored by L'Oreal to halt the aging process or create immortality before that happens.

ADR-Richard so it’s putting out enough to actually stun someone or is it just a flashy light?
You do Crazy is just fine, but the question is where do you get you Are you so much time and money?
Awesome idea👍! You are a legend!
Where did you get the little thing that generates the sparks?
eBay - search for 400kV
Colin you are living my dream with all the cool stuff you make. Thanks for sharing it with the world.
Improve it with "pepper spray" at the end/bottom of the walking stick to give added protection, with another trigger of course.
Sorry it’s late but if he used pepper spray what oil based then tazed the person it could light the person on fire so in that cause he’d have to use a water based pepper spray
Yes! we have Colin Furze back doing the kind of stuff we love him for but upgraded... sweet!
Can you build a paint ball tank but big and with tracks?
I love the 3d printing vinyl finish!
Why not make your own walking stick?
Use a metal pipe, bend the top part and put everything inside to make it invisible from the outside.
GameBreaker because old people use wooden sticks alot more
GameBreaker yeah, if you'd really want it to be useful then you'd have to hollow out the walking stick and put all that stuff inside of it. Plus you would need a more powerful battery and an easy way to recharge it. The idea is pretty cool and has potential.
this was just to do some 3d printing as id never drawn in cad or anything before so the stick was just the project if that makes sense
Sure I understand that, but still a home-made one would be more "useful". Also, the print came out very well.
You'd be surprised at how much the weight of a metal pipe would negatively affect it's utility as a walking stick. It'd kill an old person's wrist using it.

Got myself an Anet A8 about 3 months ago. Really changes how you think about doing projects being able to make those fiddly bits.
"If things get a little to exciting, I've got plenty of toilet roll!"
Which sense of the word "exciting" were you intending?
Holy shit I only just figured out that.
Very well built Mr Furze. Very well built. One small disadvantage; ITS ILLEGAL!!!!!!!!
Probably
I hope there is some ventilation in your bunker or you might have an issue.
Dwaing of course there's bloody ventilation in The Colin Furze Bunker , there's probably bloody 2 of em
Not nearly as much of an issue with PLA.
