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.

I love hearing about all the trials and tribulations of filament manufacture. It makes for interesting and relatable content.
15:00 is gold. Thanks for reinforcing the need to have clear goals and knowing yourself. I feel like that has been a theme (and mostly failure) for half my life.
However, interestingly, my move back towards 3D printing is perhaps driven by these two things. Though, I will commit to putting my goals in hard writing this week.
Love the business stuff as I'm trying to start one. Really good to hear from you. Keep it going!
Great video again Gabe, and as a founder myself, you got me scratching my head. There’s what you know you don’t know, then there’s what you don’t know you don’t know and that’s often the scary part. I’m starting my business super lean, just me, with the help of my level headed wife. With some degree of success, then I plan on automating everything I possibly can (that’s where Slant comes in) and if I’m still missing capacity hire out the gaps from there. It’s a tough hill to climb, to say the least, but the learning you get from doing it is invaluable.
I feel you on the parts issues. We send a few million bottles a week from our blowmolders here, a line down is a big deal!
Thank you for your content.
This is the the most underrated channel. No reviews no PCB/VPNs and other bs.
Thank you.
You guys actually give great business advice. You're saying things I already know but I didn't know it that way, like factual way. Hard to explain but thank you.
Thank you for your Insite. Your thoughts and comments are appreciated.
Business talk is very interesting :) As a 14 year business owner in ultra competitive niche
Not sure if this is what you typically report on, but the fastest speed benchy printer is now a bedslinger, a modded ender 3 (original frame!)
What do you think of the small manufacturing businesses who print as a side hustle or as their full time job. Are these small businesses substanable with the volitilaby with the higher public market?
hey, I know you think 3d printing will replace injecytion moulding. how does the longevity of 3d prints compare to injection moulded parts? Especially with PLA?
Will the 4kg spools be available to regular consumers?
I don't have a real need for it, but for the sake of saving money.
I can easily buy a 4kg spool of my favorite color and wind it over to a 1kg spool holder.
And will it be available in Europe?
What makes your machine better for manufacturing than prusa or a currently manufactured machine
Your building an Amazon where the shelves make the parts and your inputs are mostly PLA… what would the inputs of an Amazon warehouse be? Like what is their most common plastic used in all of their parts? ABS?
The material is largely determined by the process. ABS is better for injection molding. PLA is better for 3D printing.
That said, I mostly print TPU for my small business, and I'm finalizing a new product that will probably be printed from ABS. I prototyped it with PLA and it works well, but it'll be better in ABS even though the process is more complicated and problematic.
When I saw the article on the MIT printer I didn’t read it because I knew I would hear about it here anyway.
Really not a lot of news in the industry 😂
Gabe, thoughts on multi color printing and print farms?
Too complex?
Not reliable enough?
I 3d print fishing lures.
2 years back I was quoted $30-$35 to paint 1 lure.
At that point I decided I will find a way to “3d paint” fishing lures that look just as good if not better. Plus You can add a layer of depth that painting can not achieve!

For multicolor fishing lures, I'd use a 3D printer with one extruder per color, printed in ABS, and I'd acetone vapor smooth them. Another possibility might be 3D printing from an easier material to print and dipping the parts in clear epoxy to smooth and seal them.
if extruder machines are so simple and the materials are cheap why is filament so expensive
Check old videos.
You must be careful about molten aluminium. Your entire building might collapse.
Looks like I'm the first comment layer.
Yarss im the second

4th but what are we printing

I am your father!
Sounds like lying on your resume.
I can totally recommend you this books of Goldratt: The Goal and It's not luck. Very good business books :)
Yes it is.
