This looks like so much fun. Cat cameo in the end with the sound effect was just the best!
Thank you! If Zelda is going to give me more editing work, I might as well use it 🐈
Congrats on becoming an approved designer on printables, much deserved!
The fact that you let us sell these with proper credit makes me so happy man. I also plan to release all of my designs for free as well. I have designed a bunch of pokeballs from pokemon as keychains and some halloween stuff also.
I'm just glad more people will get to see the designs - and some of those will end up back here :)
Best of luck with your designs!
Dude! Your work and videos are fantastic! I love printing your puzzles and giving them to my wife to solve. They also provide endless puzzlement and frustration for guests, friends, and co-workers :)
Glad you like it! It may not be my most difficult puzzle, but it certainly is the most stylish :)
Despite being Dracula’s tower, it feels like it could still be a good Christmas gift. I love it!
With the right filament, it could very well be an ice tower! Or maybe you have someone in mind who absolutely has vampire related gifts on their wish list :)
@@3DPrinty Great design !! Are you looking to release the Xmas edition? Snowman/Christmas tree shaped? That would be great ;)
No promises, but I hope to have a different puzzle entirely for that :)
Got all the exterior pieces printed for this so far. Will make the maze insert tomorrow then assemble it (so stoked). Gotta say, the detail on the tower itself is amazing. It looks great and you were right about how it could simply be mistaken for a decoration. Makes it that much better! Well done sir. Made all your Halloween bobbleheads and displayed them at my job and tons of customers are loving them! Keep up the great work man. I look forward to your videos every single time one releases 😎
Thanks so much, I hope the rest of the print turns out just as well for you!
Love the remix of the theme song! Ngl, i was a little disappointed that there wasnt an accompanying dracula impression, but the more detailed model looks really cool!
I honestly considered it 🧛
But figured the voice would get a bit annoying after more than 3 sentences, vhat a shame.
I finished this yesterday and it came out amazing. Needed some minor sanding and a little grease but now it works perfectly. Looking forward to the final Halloween print for 2022. 🎃
Thanks for printing my designs! I hope to release the next video early this week :)
Your stuff is so unnecessarily cool.
Thanks so much!
this is so cool! I’m reading Dracula for the first time this year so I might print this when I get a chance!
Good idea. I enjoyed the original book quite a lot!
😆 I like your helper. Great designs. I'm printing one of your coffins right now for a friend, I like this tower too, I might to add this to her box of goodies. Thanks
She primarily helps by forcing me to take breaks during longer recording sessions :p
Good luck with the coffin print and, potentially, the tower too!
@@3DPrinty this is my 2nd coffin, my friend saw mine and wanted one of her own. Pretty sure the tower will be a Christmas present for my brother
Great tower model! Do you also have an STL for the cat?
Haha, not yet! If I had a 3D scanner, a guarantee she would have interrupted me scanning often enough to create a complete mesh.
Great video great view Box 3D printed 👍
OH this is gonna be so great for tumblr's daily dracula book club!
Some say that, to this day, Jonathan Harker is still trying to solve the easy version of this puzzle.
@@3DPrinty hahaha!
So great! Just amazing how you keep coming up with incredible designs.
Glad you like the designs :)
What is a puzzle box? A miserable pile of secrets! But seriously, what a cool concept, and a great sculpt!
Thank you. I can't believe it took nearly 24 hours to get our first Castlevania comment!
Thanks for all of the awesome projects.
Very welcome!
I just finished the Halloween pumpkin, going start this today
I'm happy to keep printers busy :)
These are amazing
These midnight release schedules are tough on the east coast 😂
Oops, yeah, sorry about that! I promise the video will still be here for you later :)
Ok first off, I'm definitly printing this in color shifting filament
But also, I hope I can remix this as a dice tower with an exit in the big window, allowing to store the dices in the "gift compartiment" when in transport
Pretty sure I wont have the patience for the second part, but at the very least I will have a pretty gift box XD
I'd love to see that print!
Thanks for the puzzles!
Welcome! Puzzles are far from my most popular designs, but they're what I enjoy making the most!
WOW!!
You got MAD Skills, Love It!!!
Thanks so much!
How this channel doesn’t have millions of subs i sure don’t know!
I guess this means you're one of the very few that discovered my channel during it's foundational years! Thanks for watching :)
Sweet!
This is such a great design, thank you for sharing 😙 Will print one for a friend of mine who is addicted to puzzles. Looking forward to see if he can solve the hardest one and how long it will take 😀
Excellent! I hope it proves a nice challenge :)
If he solves it too quickly, I recommend printing the Barrel Cooper's Puzzle Box, which is currently my most difficult puzzle design.
@@3DPrinty thanks for the advice. I have now ordered a two-colour filament for it from the big A, which I hope will give a cool effect. I'm already so excited :-)
I just love your projects 😊 stumbled upon a video some time ago and it really got me into 3d printing. At the moment I just save all your files, because I don’t own a printer yet. 😅
Always good to plan! Best of luck with your new hobby once you get printing :)
3:50 for anyone else looking for the rundown of what parts to print and assembly.
How bout a a ring or hook clip to suspend your pipes with rope and wire. I missed the last video about the pipes project.
Oh, a Printy Pipe suggestion! Sure, I'll add it to the list of possible future connectors and updates!
Great model. So quick question I printed the model on my Anycubic Vyper and everything was way too tight to assemble. Your model just slid together without resistance. Any suggestions?
There's a chance that the parts are only too tight near the bottom of each part, due to a printing issue called "elephant's foot". If that's the case, increasing your z-height a bit to reduce the initial squish can help. If the problem is with the entire height of the part, I'd try reducing your print temperature (unless you are already printing as cool as the filament permits). The last option is to reduce your extrusion multiplier slightly.
I've uploaded looser versions of the maze inserts if we're lucky and that's the only part that's giving you trouble. Good luck!
@@3DPrinty thanks for the reply. I went with the looser print worked great!
The tower does not enter the maze hard aligning the larger window, I verified that it is the only one that presents this difference. I can't fit the tower into it. Can you hekp me?
Correct! The hard maze is extra tricky... and one of the tricks is that the exit is offset. To put it back together, make sure that the front of the tower is facing the front of the base. Then push the slider back and forth until you work your way into the first track :)
What is a good software for remixing? I currently use SolidWorks but you can't remix an stl file on it.
I primarily use Fusion360. It can convert STLs into solid meshes reliably and can work with STEP files particularly well.
can someone help me with a text file or some other way of getting a list of parts not included in the download... what size screws and magnets do i need? how come im the only one with this question lol do all of you have a box with unlimited magnets and m4 bolts lol
Sadly, I'm out traveling until after Halloween away from my printer. :-) Otherwise, I'd totally make one of these for a gift.
Sorry to hear it, but that gives you lots of time to make them for next year :)
@@3DPrinty At least I have something else to use my $30/Kg "Brick Red" filament on. ;-) And that opening sequence is quite Oddly Satisfying.
Every roll of filament has a model out there somewhere that's destined for its use :)
how come im soo stupid i cant ever find a list of external stuff to buy... magnets bolts screws etc... im really slow mentally can someone help?
I've updated the project on Printables with links to Amazon listings for the hardware. You can get these elsewhere, but that's one option. Good luck with the print!
@@3DPrinty i love it
jimmy rigged it with some screws around the house no magnets what a new style of puzzling!
Do you sell this anywhere?
I don't, but I do see them on Etsy! Since the model is posted under a Creative Commons: Attribution license (CC BY 4.0), it's perfectly fine for a 3D printing service to make a copy for you for a profit.
I enjoy your prints; toggle buttons, Braille Peg Cell, bobble heads. However I'm a novice with a Neptune 2 and many of the prints that I make of yours have too tight of clearance. Sanding off 2 or 3mm all the way around the inside of the top and body before anything can grind together is not helpful. This is not the first of your designs that was tighter than a rusty vice(Spring Latch). PLEASE in the future put a little more clearance for parts that move past or around each other.
Glad you like the designs!
I've uploaded an optional loose version of the tower body that may work better for your printer. The loose version has double the default clearance. Any looser than that and we run into problems with the maze, which is only 1mm deep.
If this is a frequent issue, I recommend printing some clearance tests to further tweak your print profiles. This could be caused by over extrusion, elephant's foot, surface imperfections, or even printing temps that are just a bit too high.
While I try to provide alternate clearance options where suitable, I don't plan to change my default clearances on future designs. There just isn't a perfect clearance for everyone. My only real option is to use what works best with the printers I have on hand.
