"Sorry for my English."
[speaks in perfect English]
The best part about that is, as a native English speaker myself, I think his English is better than mine.
"My girlfriend has already been complaining *since* a couple of weeks [...]"
That's a pretty common Germanism.
I know that "seit zwei Wochen" does not *quite* mean "for two weeks", but rather "is still [something], and has been ongoing so since two weeks ago", which doesn't exactly flow off the tongue. I believe native English speakers would say " *for* a couple of weeks" anyway.
It's hard to say if you speak perfect English if your natural language is not English.
Even if you speak perfect English you may not know it. Like me, I don't know 100% sure that all my words were correct.
Better than every indian tutorials.
@@hermanrobak1285 hm, I think "... has been complaining for two weeks _now_" accomplishes that, unless I misunderstood the problem you meant 😉
Never apologize for your English. It's great. Your content is great too
There is nothing wrong with your English. I couldn't even tell that you are not a native speaker.
Hi there, Servus - wie heißt das 3D-Druckprogramm, welches du zum Ausdrucken der Zahnräder benützt? Thanks
Schau mal nach "Slic3r". Ich selbst nehme Simplify3D das zwar Geld kostet aber doch SEHR einfach für Anfänger ist und sich echt lohnt. Ansonsten gibt es noch viele andere Slicer die kostenlos und ebenfalls sehr gut sind, wie zB. "Cura".
Actually more of an American English speaker with all those "right here's" and "right now's".
I commend you for your self-awareness and desire to improve. Don't listen to people who always say "good enough." The world is mediocre enough. Self-improvement is the essence of life itself.
Your project was excellent and so was your English. Your English is better than a lot of people living in the USA!
absolutely impressive and amazing. I love how you kept it simple and still doing something usable with the printed part!
Your English was just fine. You're fluent enough that it doesn't distract from the topic of the video at all. Speaking of which, I really enjoyed this video! Just makes me want a 3D printer even more. :D
Great video and for those with a bit of technical ability and patience - A good example of the versatility of 3D printing in the home. Thank you, i found this inspirational.
fusion has a spur gear tool
THat was my first thought, but I can't find anything... Someone on the forums mentioned a spur gear addon/plugin, but I can't even find where to install plugins 😂
Realised that it was a 20 minute video only when it finished. Great content quality!
I love the sound your salad spinner made before the repair. Probably every lawnmower in your neighborhood was envious of it :)
Thanks for the wonderful video! I'm new to fusion360 and this was really helpful.The symmetry and construction line functions were things I wished I knew how to do and now I do!
I really appreciate the detail instructions you provide with using Fusion 360 and the measurements you manually make. Thank you!!!
Love that. A friend just showed up with a broken track roller of his dishwasher. I was able to design the new part within minutes using Fusion 360 and then printed him a couple of spares. Worked great. He was really amazed. Thanks for sharing.
Nicely done! My Ender 3 is on its way, and I'm planning to do this same thing for a small gear in a toy kitchen timer for my daughter. I'll be watching this again to hopefully help me figure out how to do it. What a time to be alive.
Great Video. Just started with Fusion 360 today and after watching your video I'm already designing gears (although mine currently are only for looks in the steampunk man cave I'm working on designing). I don't have a 3D printer yet, but once I see how these turn out I am looking forward to making gears and levers to move stuff around. Thanks for making a great video!!
Your english is just fine don't ever apologies its a plus for you to speak more than one language and that is excellent..... keep it up.
I prefer your naturally spoken unscripted sections, its more relaxed and natural. I found your educational tips on how to draw using the software helpful. I would suggest that you assume that you are talking to two audiences, one who like me knows nothing and then for those who do under stand. Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing the knowledge.
Nice clear, short and to the point!
I found your channel a few days ago and love it. Especially using Fusion 360 is awesome for me because this program is my main CAD and 3D printing program !! NICE !
Very, VERY good video! Thank you for sharing your knowledge, it is nice to see how others use different software packages to achieve similar results. I use Solidworks myself but have been wanting to try Fusion360 for some home use stuff, it looks quite capable from your video and I appreciate you letting us go through your iterations!
Great Job Mr. Pete! This speaks well for the future of hard to find parts at a reasonable price! Thanks
it would make sense for the gears to be made of nylon. it's often used for gears for it's quite solid and self lubricant.
Also this looks like nylon gears (white color with a slight transparancy)
But you don't just strip or chew up a Nylon gear that easily. Could be a random polyester gear since the manufacturer doesn't really care about quality all that much.
Yeah, color and feel lead me to Nylon/PA. It just bothers me how I can prove that. There aren't unfortunately any moldmarks on it.
Probably the original gear was polypropylene
The standard test used in chemistry is burn test. Examine the smell, the colour of flame when you're holding a colourless flame to the item, then see what it does, whether it colours a flame, whether it ignites outright and sustains a fire while melting, whether it melts first and ignites later, and when it ignites, what colours (core and tip or edge) it has while burning, and what it smells like. There are tables that will help you determine the plastic from this data.
It barely melts at 150°C, which is likely enough of polypropylene, as Herman says, but shouldn't be Nylon. Acrid smell in flame when it extinguishes itself with yellow flame, sweet smell and blue flame with yellow tip whet it sustains its own flame. Not my first hand experience so I wouldn't be able to help you much, but perhaps something to go on.
Nylon wouldn't break like that, deformed, worn out or bent defect and Nylon would be likely.
It may be PP (Polypropylene) if it's really cheaply made, or POM (Polyoxymethylene if the designer know anything of his profession and this one is only a defect or was improper treated (by user or manufacturer) you may also know this material under the name Acetal or Delrin :D
Hi Stefan, really great tutorial. I really need to do more with Fusion 360. I have made a few things but need to get better and this video helped motivated me to get going. Nice touch making the screw covers. Again, great job.
This is an excellent example of using a 3D printer for a practical application. I am new to 3D printing and am learning a lot from your videos. Thank you for creating informative content. I just ordered a 3D printer which I will use to build radio controlled airplanes and associated parts, which is the focus of my channel. By the way, your English is fine!
Excellent video! I'm getting my first printer on Monday, so I've been binge watching Fusion 360 stuff. You have some great vids here!
Thanks so much for this video.
I need to make a replacement gear for an RC car that is almost identical to the gear you made.
I can essentially use your video as a step by step guide to make a replacement (just changing dimensions).
And your English is great.
Great Video, I'm also a tinkerer, avid repairer. Got a local I3 knockoff, its fussy, with you get to know its moods and tweaks necessary. Also Thanks for the good walk-through on fusion, I just started with it, am I'm liking it very much.
great video. Also nice to see how different people turn ideas into objects. Your cad use is great.
Hey,
I just got into 3D printing and you're doing a great job explaining everything - subscribed! :)
I agree with Athan, I was about to say the same things. Well done and thank you so much for your dedication to education and sharing.
Best Wishes
Thanks, excellent explanation of the design and whole process. My small RC car had a broken gear for a while now and after watching this, I'll be designing the part ASAP. TH-cam must be reading my mind suggesting this video! :)
And thanks to this great video, my RC car is working again! \o/ :)

I simply love your video, it was very inspiring and gave my 3d Prusa lots of new work from the "storage" :D
Great video....thanks for posting this!! Great timing, too, as i just got "the bug" to get fluent with this software less than a week ago so...right on time!
The original gear was likely polyoxymethylene (aka Acetal), which is a very common material for small gears. Melting point is pretty close to your soldering iron test as well.
Thank you for the video! You explain everything so well, that I feel like I can make a gear now.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video - It is clear and concise, surprisingly so given you said you are a non-native english speaker.
Thanks! I'm happy to hear that.
Actually just last week used fusion 360 to design and print a replacement driving gear for our old Raven autosteer we added to our 4430 John Deere tractor years ago. Couldn't believe they made the original gear out of plastic that then runs against a metal ring gear under the steering wheel! Considering this gear has to not only take the torque of the driving motor but also of the operator if they have to grab the wheel and yank to manually disengage the system. To top it off they don't offer it as a replacement part!
Anyway, teeth where 90% gone all the way around, with only small stubs left but at least I could tell how many teeth it originally had. Was actually amazed I was able to use fusion 360 to design and replace the gear including mounts for a clutch plate that attaches to one side on the first try. haha, happy surprise, thought I was going to have to do many revisions to get the teeth just right but came out perfect. Fusion 360 does have a built in tool for help design spur gears now, saves some of the work for getting a proper tooth profile (once you do some googling to understand how spur gears are designed anyway :P)
Also I went with PET-G as my filament choice, pretty strong, chemical/oil resistant and think it will hold up to the heat of a tractor cab out in the sun well. Was worried the outer ring with the teeth might delaminate if someone yanks on the wheel but so far so good after about 500 acres of spreading fertilizer thus far.
Opened up the shell today just to take a peak how the teeth were holding up and they still look perfect! Printed out a few more to leave in the shop; was originally hoping I could get a season out of each one, but starting to wonder if I might get a few years out of it which would be more than the end of life for the system due to the US gov plans to end of life the specific GPS signal it works on by then. (Originally it was going to stop in 2021 but they extended it to 2024 if I recall)
Very useful example. Nice fusion work. thanks for sharing
Great Video. I always enjoy seeing gears being made.
Nice work, you gave me a good bit of info for not using supports
it's great bro,u show from design to printing,it's really usefull .thank u bro
great video of how useful parts can be printed at home
Fantastic tutorial! I learned so much from this video.
Well done!
Your english is phenominal, great video!
I am very impressed with your English and like your videos. Keep up the good work.
Thanks!
The solder iron thing is a great idea.
Great video!! perfect for a Fusion 360 and a 3D printing beginner like me. keep up the good work :)
u never have to excuse having bad english( i had no problem understanding everything u said) the fact that u learned a second language is amazing. im also from a none english speaking country
A friendly advice; you could've done the chamfer on the edge of the initial tooth before making the circular pattern matrix, that way you make just one chamfer and that feature will be transfered to the later made teeth, I don't own a 3d printer yet, but I use a lot of solidworks and I'm Learning how to use fusion, and I've found your video really interesting and useful, thanks a lot! And yes, as an engineering mechanic student, I cried internally when you made the gear the way you did, but it proved to work very good, considering that you've got higher tolerances for what you made, again, thanks a lot for your video and keep up the good work 💪🏽
This is a really helpful little tutorial of fs360, thanks!
Hi there! i have a bit of experience with printing ABS on a Prusa i3 and might help ypu out a little.
For ABS you normaly turn off your fan so the part doesn't warp. If you print small parts like this gear(actually printed a very similar one last week) you want to have some cooling going on. Also be sure to set a minimum layertime of about 20secs. This slows down your printer but ultimatley gives the small area time to cool enough so it is at least in a semisolid state.
As you use Slic3er for the prusa secifically its quite easy to do those settings. ( Filament-Setting->Cooling-> Auto-Cooling. Set the cooling from 30%-50% and enable the minium layertime at the bottom.)
Thanks, I gonna give that a try...and buy some decent ABS filament.
I've been needing to do this exact thing for my restaurants salad spinner
I'm listening to your video at 1.5x speed, and your English is excellent. Ganz gut!
Love your future philosophy - bang on!
It might make a good video to use friction welding to fix that pin. Fran Blanch did a great video on it. It is certainly a skill worth having if you like to repair plastic stuff. A dremel tool and plastic rod is all that is needed.
Very nice good explanation of what you were doing
I'd like to hear what it sounded like after the repair!
I dont know what you was complaining about? Your English sounds great and honestly I know some English only speaking people that are really bad, so yea... sound great to me and thanks for this tutorial!
I quite enjoyed this video, thank you sir!
No apologies needed for your English. Your accent reminds me of the German actor Alexander Dreymon who played Utred in the BBC/Netflix series, The Last Kingdom. It's very distinctive inflexion, but I have no idea if it's tied to a region in Germany or not.
You videos have been very interesting and helpful. As others have mentioned, Fusion 360 comes standard with a spur gear add-in which makes very short work of gears like this.
Nice video. Thank you. Subbed ... I really like the Fusion 360 work. More like this one, and your newest shower thingy replacement part please.
You should be able to make heard in autocad using the gear creator.
You need the DP no of teeth. And can be a fiddle. But it will give you the correct gear profiles.
I made a whole gearbox with worm wheels using it about a decade ago.
exactly what i needed for my custom job on my car ventilation duct. thanks for the second time within 30 minutes! :) i seen another video using "spur gear" in add-ins section of fusion 360. with your way of explaining stuff it would be super if you did a video there, as maybe in my case, i dont understand all the check boxes to create something from that add-in, and have a outher total diamter to make it within. well if you make one, i guess i will see it in my subscription of you now :)
thanks!
This is interesting. The very first 3d print I ever did was a rail gear set for a telescope I had. The manufacturers did not sell any replacements, and we were all disappointed that a $400 piece of equipment was pretty much useless without that tiny piece of plastic.
However, years latter, I knew how to model in blender, and my friend had just gotten into 3d printing (Le Guero Loco), so I decided to remake it. I didn't have a caliper, and there were no module ratings on the gear, which led me to just remake the set with my own gear design on both parts. Surprisingly, it worked first try.
Needles to say, after having had the broken telescope lying around for years, I was out using it again the very first night I got the parts :) It was a great introduction to 3d printing for me. (I wonder how long the pla parts will last though, I should reprint them in petg sometime)
Now there is a really really nice "gear master" add-on you can download for free, and it automatically makes involute gear sets for you.
Gutes Video. Auch wenn man keine Salat schleuder braucht. Great video with good instructions.
I like your comments at the end..."Don't get discouraged if..".... I really understand what you mean....:D
I never had issues with ABS. I had some rolls of Verbatim ABS and its awesome.
Hello Stefan,
Very good videos !
as many already answered, the original gears are usually made out of POM (also named DELRIN - Dupont (r) or Acetal (Family), as this is a self lubricated material.
these materials are not (yet) available in filaments.
one good (not so good) tip to recognize this material : while heating at more that 210-220°C -> white smoke, making you cry !!
in case you want to print other gears, materials from IGUS are quite good. (I'm not working for them !)
Please carry on sharing !
Cooles Tutorial und sehr gute Erklärungen. Danke
Well done! Keep up the good work! Plus your english is fine!
Very interesting video. Inspires me to design more complex items.
beautiful and well done JOB thank you.
Your English is fine - I wish I could speak German as well as you speak English! 😳 Brilliant video - practically using 3D printing for manufacturing broken parts. That what I think it’s all about. I’m sure this is only the beginning of the RepRap. An exciting time in manufacturing. Thanks for sharing. John (UK)
At 9:58 instead of join you can click on distance and change to TO then click on the face you want it to extend to. The benefit od this is that if you change the heights later it moves that joint up and down with them without moving the rest of the tooth. Im only a beginner but saw that'll great tip the other day
@CNC Kitchen
the gears are usually made from POM+GF!
This is nice, I'll try it when I get my printer.
great practical lesson, thanks!
Good stuff I was trying to make one but I have no idea what I'm doing but this helped a lot 🤔
Great video and very easy to understand your English, so well done you!
I am researching the use of a 3D printer to make 3 small gears for a thread chasing dial on a small metal lathe. What if anything would be the most suitable product to use to make these gears?
They will be engaged to a 20mm OD lead screw with a 3mm pitch.
pretty good video and it gave me alot of insight to fusion
FreeCAD which is actually free has a gear tooth micro that will produce proper teeth. I use the older 15. because it has a drawing module.. The 17 program last I check drawing program doesn't work.
Very good practical example!!! Great!!!
Tinker CAD has a very simple gear maker that has been added, you select pitch and adjust for size. I use it to 3d print gears for a lathe to drive the lead screw to cut different threads. It is a very simple program that uses shapes to modify shapes no CAD programming knowledge needed. This might appeal to those that don't want to spend the time to learn CAD.
AvE's soldering iron test. Nice. The youtube bubble is real
Or maybe you live inside this bubble. I have been using my soldering iron to find out approx. softening/melting points since forever. And I didn´t come up with it either
Phil Maitrot he explicitly said AvE's soldering iron method. I know that AvE likely didn't invent it. what was funny for me was the fact that he apparently also follows AvE. I've noticed several times in the past that a lot of the TH-camrs I follow also follow each other, hence the bubble joke.
Thanks for posting. I've used SketchUp for years for woodworking and am quite familiar with it. It works great for woodworking. Unfortunately, with 3D printing and other more complex shapes, I need a better solution, so I'm slowly learning Fusion 360. I see a lot of similarities between the two, and see where Fusion 360 is much better in many ways.
You will not regret learning it! It is a very powerful tool and I'm so glad that Autodesk provides it for free to hobbyists. I can highly recommend the Fusion 360 tutorials from "NYC CNC" by the way.
Danke und Auf wiedersehen und haben sie ein guten tag
Good job! I love Fusion 360!!
They work a lot better if you are not making the gears slightly undersize to allow printing the gearbox to be printed already assembled.
If using plain PLA... use natural as it is stronger.
Your English is fine. I don't speak any other languages and I understood you perfectly.
Awesome video! Thanks! BTW, your English is better than most native speakers!
Thanks! I do my best.
I work with some adults that were born, raised, and went to school in the U.S., and I cannot understand the ghetto/tweet/street speak that they use. You sir speak english very well.
In addition: If you put the chamfer on the first tooth and then patterned it as well, it would save time and make changes easier.
Good job and thank you.
Thank you for sharing!
GF Gear generator is a free gear add-in for Fusion 360. Safes a lot of time ( and some fun too of course)
Your english is very good. You sounds like a native speaker
Your English is great i can understand it very well
I get really weak layer adhesion for about 5-10 minutes of printing after switching from PLA to PETG and then it's super strong. I use PrimaSelect PETG and aside from the material switch issue, it is fantastic for parts that need mechanical strength.
+Juri Munkki That's due to residues of PLA in your nozzle. Try cold - pulling when switching filament types! That helps a lot!
Love the movie, i learned a lot thank you.
Thanks for the video, friend! Hope you and your girlfriend have gotten 6 solid years of use from that salad spinner!
Great simple Video, Thanks :)
thank you for the video. a great help .
honestly, as a fellow german i have to say that your english is pretty damn good. no need to apologise.
Great video. It was two sets of gears; how did you know what orientation would be best for the both of them so they won't jam? Thanks.
