  • Yes, there ARE 3D Printed tools that you can actually use - and some are even more functional than the store-bought ones!
    After all... is there anything more frustrating than needing a very specific tool to finish a fix or a 3d printing project, only to discover that you can't get it in time? Well stick around because in this video I'm going to share with you my top 28 ish 3D printed tools as well as tips for printing them, what they're used for and why I love them so much. These are some of my MOST functional and useful 3D Prints EVER... and I know you're going to love them, too!

      @3dprintedhardware ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Email me, I'll hook you up with my 3d printable tool set which includes hardware tools like an adjustable wrench, pliers and a 12 piece wrench set..standard and metric 👍
      I have more tools on the way that will be added to the set, many of which are in the final testing stage right now. Although the tools in the tool set will work best if printed in metal or high temp hardened plastics, they are still fun and even useful around the house if printed in PLA, especially if your using the tools on newer, rust free nuts and bolts (or 3d printed nuts and bolts). I think this set would be perfect for your next "useful 3d printed tools" video.

    The way you used that pocket hole jig was actually painfull. If the drill is not the same size as the hole you feed it through to the wood, you don't have any benefit from the jig. and if it does have the same size, the drill will eat your jig, so you need a metal surface inside there. Good idea in principle, but this is a one use disposable tool if you use it right. And if you don't use it right, you don't have to use it at all, because it does nothing for you.

    Thanks for this! I was expecting the list to have maybe 3-4 useful tools out of the giant list, but you presented MANY useful tools. You also presented tools that weren't just specific to 3D printing, which is even better.
    I'd love to see integration of 3D prints with other building techniques, such as woodworking and working with metal. As an example, 3D printed bushings to work with steel square tubing, to permit rotation or telescoping designs that may require some mig welding, but that don't need lathe or mill work, because of 3D.

    For the bit holder: Try out carbon-fiber polycarbonate, it's slightly flexible but also very strong. It needs an abrasive-resistant nozzle, a well-maintained printer, in some cases a temperature-controller enclosure, a ~100c bed and a ~300c hotend. Your Prusa should be able to handle that though! It's definitely not my favorite material to print with, but it is my favorite in terms of end product properties. Another thing to try is to just make a "solid block" with slightly oversized hex-shaped holes in it, and put a strong neodymium strip embedded in the bottom to hold the bits in their holes. Absolutely loving your channel btw, and the clean look of your studio!

    I found a useful tool last winter. Ice scraper. I tried PLA,PETG,TPU. I found tpu worked fantastic once it was cold(left in the car) petg was a good 2nd option.
    Also a nice little salt scoop printed from pla was helpful.
    We got hit with a surprise snow/ ice storm and i wasnt ready so i fired up the printers.
    Those solder jigs are useful. Print them from petg or better for temp resistance. I have one in ABS and another in PC.

    Btw for all of the screw measurers and fillet gauge you don't need to print in 2 colors, you can print it in one and get spray paint. Spray some paint on a flat piece of cardboard and press the side with the numbers/letters onto the cardboard and voila, you have easy to read numbers.

    Don’t be discouraged by a low subscriber count.

    I know it's been a long time since the video went up but I have an idea for the drill bit holder towards the end. If you can't print anything that won't get eaten up maybe print a thing that holds the little plastic holder the bits come in. You'll have all relevant info right there to. That is if they come in like endmil tubes or whatever. Or hell melt a little wax or whatever they do after they reground endmil and send them back to you just twist it off and back on under whatever printed holder you have. Idk just an idea I don't have a printer and I'm not a designer.

    Is there anything worse than not being able to get a tool in time? Yes... waiting 14 hours for the printer to finish printing the tool you need, then realizing you didn't put high enough infill so you've got 18 more hours to wait for the stronger version to print and hope its strong enough. Lol. Still, nice video man, its true that it helps to be able to print tools that are hard to get.

    The best thing about 3d printers is that many things that were too expensive for their use are suddenly very viable. I printed and assembled a 3-jaw benchvise that uses a spriral thread to move the 3 jaws simultaneously. That would be a crazy expensive piece but for printing it just doesn't matter, it's just volume and time and nothing else

    WOW... just you read my mind on what I want to get...
    1) A video displaying/providing a list of hardware for 3D printing (nuts, bolts, inserts, bearings,etc) with suggested links in Aliexpress... (Soon we have the 11/11 sales)
    2) A video displaying/providing a list of companion tools for 3D printing like the ones you shared at the end.
    3) A video explaining how to nail down the PET-G settings, including what devices may be suitable such as a filament dryer, etc..

    Once I get my 3d printer and go through a few small projects, one of the first "big" projects I want to tackle is making a dovetail jig. I'd be super happy if I could make something with the functionality of a Leigh super 12", but even if it all has to be fixed in place like a Porter Cable 4212 it will be a great boon to me.

    I've had luck using a heat gun to fit the bits into the drill mounted bit holders. I heat up the holder, then put in the bits and let it cool down with the bit in it. Everything slides in and out really well after.
    I have also been using a lot of models that use airsoft BBs as bearings. They work really well, and are super cheap!

    11:00 if you don't want to reprint a scrapper you can "sharpen it" just by reheating and squishing it between two flat surfaces.
    it might be easier to just print a new one. but if you wanna save the plastic it's an option :)

  • @Hangs4Fun

    Polycarbonate has better heat resistance than either nylon or Asa. And if you do what I do and use heated enclosures and annealing your parts after directly after printing you can take polycarbonate even a tad higher.

    @MattDoleman ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video! However one thing i think worth highlighting is that with the drill sharpening guide, metal cutting discs like that should only ever be used for cutting, grinding items with the sides of these discs will eventually cause them to shatter/explode during use which can be nasty for your eyes or skin!
    You can get thicker grinding stones for dremels, these are what should be used for sharpening drills.

    On the subject of 3D printing tools, I was making a print that needed to have tabs on the side that would fit snugly into a slot for which I had no measurements. I was able to come pretty close for the length and with of the slot just using my calipers. The problem was I had no way to measure the width of the channel which was needed to set the thickness of the tab. I solved the problem by printing a set of feeler gauges out of PLA. They had small square handles 20mm x 20mm and 4mm thick. The tabs protruded from the center of one edge and were 10mm wide and 40 mm long. I printed them in thicknesses ranging from 0.25mm to 1.0mm . The steps were 0.10mm starting with 0.30mm with the addition of one 0.25mm thick and one 0.75mm thick. I was able to get the tab thickness dialed right in on the second try (it was 0.63mm my first guesstimate was 0.65mm).

    11:24 of note, concrete drill bits have tungsten carbide tips, this metal is safe as a solid, you start grinding it though, it becomes extremely toxic, it is VERY bad for you, so you should not sharpen this stuff, of if you do, make sure it is under water to collect all the toxic debris (and then dispose of this responsibly) you can look up the dangers of tungsten carbine yourselves. but please be super carful with it.
