I discovered this channel on the 8 bit guy's channel with the think differently challenge. The pi lle. I was born in 1970 so I grew up in the 70's and 80's and love the retro tech from my youth that you guys often showcase. Keep up the great videos!
Safety first! I've started wearing gloves and safety goggles when removing supports - especially from larger prints. I started doing this after drawing blood waaaay too many times (one time where I didn't notice until I saw the blood on the print itself...). And when I finally got a piece of plastic INTO my eye, where it started sneaking behind my eye, I realized that removing supports is a lot more dangerous than one would think. That plastic is darn sharp and it could cut your corneas and leave a permanent vision impairing scar. So to every aspiring maker out there: Please use gloves and safety goggles when removing supports. :)
Yeah, I once had a little piece fly right into my eye and get stuck under the eyelid. It was a literal and figurative pain to get it back out (no lasting damage, fortunately). Ordered a box of cheap safety glasses from aliexpress and distributed them all over my place so I'd never have an excuse not to put one on when removing supports 😀
Just bought a 3D printer and this video has given me food for thought. Cannot wait until episode 2. Looks like the journey is as good as the destination on this one.
9:30 this is the reason why i wear always safety glasses when I'm cleaning up the print. I'm glad to see this because i thought that somehow I was cursed.
A refreshing realistic video showing what can go right and wrong. Appreciated seeing the goofs and difficulties. Love what you have built so far and look forward to seeing chapter two.
That project took a lot of patience! I am thinking of getting a 3D printer, it has so many uses and possibilities... Great video and looking forward to Part II.
"My computer printed a computer" - That's how it starts. Before long you get Cyberdyne robots building Cyberdyne robots and we all know where that road leads.
This project might have tested your patience, Ladyfractic, but I am sure you had a lot of fun and learned a lot. Perafractic with the pinch hit! Nice job to the both of you.
Reminds me of a Lear Siegler ADM 3A / 3A+ - I had several when I was in College 30 years ago - I'd buy 1200 baud modems and rent them out to CIS students so they could work from their dorm rooms - that kept me in pizza and beer money for several quarters.... I'll have to build one of these!
What a neat little ADM-3A-inspired case! Some of the fun I don't have because I don't have a 3D printer. (And, well, some of the tedious cleanup work and re-work I don't have, I guess, hehe.)
i often find banging the print on a table sometimes loosen the supports, cause its only held on by fine contact points, so a good shock is sometimes enough
Great video. I liked that you showed the all the little mishaps. Looking forward to watching part two, which I just found, and which pointed me to this episode. Don’t know how I missed it when you released it.
Wow, good for you waiting until everything is printed to do the cleanup. After my first big print, I quickly changed my support % down to 5.00, I will even go as low as 3.0%.
Ladyfractic doing a great job with Puppyfractic playing nurse. Loved this so much and it has a commodore pet vibe to it (that's a good thing imo) can not wait for part 2 and hope there will be more Ladyfractic videos like this in the future ofc we will let Perifractic do videos as well haha. Hope the battle scars heal up nice and roll on the next part. Take care guys and have a great weekend.
Excellent Ladyfractic. Your patience does you credit. It looks very 1970s computer terminal in style, and what might make it look more authentic are custom deeper key caps in a classic retro style font. Still. it looks amazing, and I look forward to the next part.
Ladyfractic never disappoints in her recipodes. Great project video, and excellent job cleaning up those prints. My fingers would have been non-existent after trying to remove those supports.
What a fun project, the results came out great. If it helps, I've found that the filament snagging happens if it is ever let go after being opened - once it unwinds even a little, it can be difficult to uncross the filament. There are designs for 3d printed filament clips that you can use to hold it when its not loaded in the printer. Looking forward to part 2 of the series!
Oh! I remember seeing the first version of that case on thingiverse and was very tempted to print it - this update looks even better! And yes, removing supports is always a major pain. Regardless, your new/old computer looks great!
great job, love the way you highlighted the heaven & hell that is removing the print supports. It should be noted this is really a project about 3D printing a computer casing rather than a computer tho.
it's a massive pain, but if you get reel tangles like that, unfortunately the only thing i've found to do is to re-spool it. grab an old spent spool, stick it on a spinny thing (I usually go with another spool holder or a broom handle or whatever, put the problematic spool on the printer's spool holder, and start re-spooling it... when the newly wrapped spool doesn't try to work it's way back off the spool any more, you can spin it and guide the filament back and forth along the spool to get nice even coverage across the spool.
Love this video, it's a cool build! Pro tip! Use gloves and glasses, I've had plastic in my eyes and cut my hands during cleaning and not want to repeat that. You only have two eyes and you wanna use them as long as possible xD
What a great project! I have two Raspberry Pis (A 8GB Extreme and a 400). I have a seven-inch LCD monitor and my brother has a 3-D printer. Looks like a great case to print to do the same thing you are doing! You have done a fantastic job so far! Look forward to part two! Sorry for the finger owies!
Ah yeah... The joy of messing around with bigger parts off a 3d-printer 😂 I ended up constructing parts in more pieces using ABS (got that dirt cheap) and avoid hangovers and supports best possible to save some sweat and blood. Kudos for going through all of this, Ladyfractic!
2:57 I can only imagine how frustrating 3d printer problems are. The regular old dot matrix and jet printers were bad enough when things didn't go right.
Impressed by your patience printing and assembling the case, that plastic residue seems nasty. The case has that awesome old school terminal look, will be interesting to see how it runs.
top tip. if your print fails, measure the height it got to then just print the top bit by subtracting what you already printed from the z height in cura.
@@RetroRecipes Really accurate. For example if you measure the height of your failed part at 102mm just type into Cura -102 and watch the part disappear 102mm below the virtual print bed of your machine. By the way I love the show. my partner has started watching because she loves the dynamic both of you have on-set. also it reminds her of playing games when she was a kid. thanks for this. :)
That's a really cool project! I'm planning to make a 3D printed clamshell handheld out of a Khadas Vim 4, a Rii mini keyboard and gamepad components from 8BitDo. It may take a while to complete the project, but it's nice to see similar projects in the works. I look forward to watching Part 2!
Try Ziro brand filament,(yes I spelled it right lol) works great, and bridge is less a problem. I do mine at 220 degrees on the hotend. Comes silky smooth each time.
I had looked at building that "Thing" awhile back, but came to my senses when I looked around the place and saw all of my other projects staring back at me accusingly.
so apparently I need a heat gun and a metal spatula. I just built my Prusa I3 MK3S last weekend and I've been having trouble with supports as well. I did print my own made from scratch models the 1979 Enterprise Refit model and the Pyro-GX from the video game Descent. I also had trouble with bad filament. It's just the just that came with the printer. Thankfully, I'm past the part of the spool that was tangled on the spool.
Thanks for sharing this. I'm tempted to build the one you made, it looks like the old remote terminal I used in college. Have you considered using a Dremel tool to clean the schmutz off the printed parts? It might not be as fun as the rip-and-wrestle approach, but you'll cut yourself less (I hope).
Emencely satisfying and genuinely delightful video. I would have probably broken down and grabbed some gloves and a Dremel tool for the clean up but obviously you powered through just fine. Lovely job and cheers to the whole Fractic crew (both in front of and behind scenes). Ready for part two!
Pi Computer Building! I feel I must add further warnings to everyone who'd try this for themselves, as it seems to have been overlooked in the instructions! If doing anything like this be sure to wear safety eye protection; either goggles or a face shield. Also, ensure all parts and tools are accounted for throughout, especially where animals and children are in the household! (I realise this is common sense but I feel it needs to be mentioned!). Looking forward to part two, when available.
Oh, I was *just* about to go ahead with printing one of this but I was not sure how the final product looked. I'm so glad you've decided to do this. It looks pretty cool actually. :) Also, "chopsticks" at 0:00.
What an incredibly enjoyable video. I just love watching tinkering videos like this one. Makes me wish I had a 3D printer myself. Very excited for part 2. Keep it up, great work. Thank you ☺️
I have found that the Amazon Basics brand filament and the brand you were using does that a lot where it gets hung and stops feeding… I use Hatchbox filament and it prints perfect! Just a tip incase those other brands keep doing that
If that was your first 3D print project, you should be canonized for sainthood, Ladyfractic. Especially given every 3D printer model has different tolerances, that looked like a PITA. Really neat result though. Looking forward to seeing it running in Part 2. 👍️
Pfew!!! That takes commitment! Now employ a Perifractic to put on body filler and sand it smooth as a puppy’s bottom 😁Nothing wrong with making a Peri sweatshop 😜 Well done Ladyfractic!!! 👏👏👏
That was so good, I think I watched it 3 times. I wonder how many people picked up on the "chopsticks" at the end. Too funny! This looks like a super fun project to do. I can't wait for part 4!
@@RetroRecipes I am very much looking forward to it. My daughter asked if we could make a computer so thank you, LadyFractic, for inspiring my daughter in technology.
I am so happy to hear that! A main goal of mine is to widen the retro and tech space and make it a welcoming place for women of all ages, from everywhere. I can’t wait to hear all about her project! - LF
I have considered something like this for quite a while, but I kept running into a major limitation of PLA plastic: When heated, it shrinks, and not at all uniformly. I've had a few projects go by the wayside because they involved other pieces of equipment that generated heat, and so cause warpage and drooping in short order. :'(

Fantastic work there Ladyfractic, that’s a super cool project. Looks like you need a printer that can detect broken or spent filament so it stops and waits for you to fix the problem before resuming where left off, could save a lot of time and frustration. Can’t wait for the next recipode.
Great video. I think I’m going to have a go at this myself. I will avoid using Amazon though as the employees aren’t treated well by their jerk of a boss. Thanks for the video 👍👍👍
Funny video I loved !. Btw need to play with orientations, in order to minimize supports. That top lid didn't need supports if printed vertically with a brim!. Also holes dont need supports, printer can do a little bit of bridging there!
The age we live in... Grew up on Commodore 64, now watching videos on printing micro computers and already wondering what to do with own 3D printers... Crazy.
To stop the snagging of filament, certainly on my Ender 3, I 3D printed an arm to hold the filament away from the roll, and a little clip on route gizmo to stop snagging on the screw. Works a treat. Of course, recently moved home, I have a clogged nozzle, and have no idea where my spare nozzles nor the unclogging tool are, so karma right there.
I would love to attempt something like this. With my luck, I’d end up with support spool plastic in my cornea! I can’t wait to see part 2! Way to go, Ladyfractic! 🎉
Nice work, Ladyfractic! I guess this is yet another example of why a filament run out sensor is a good idea, at least in theory. But not exactly enough to push it over the line to implementation - hence why I say ‘yet another’. I’m nearly tempted to say that the filament breakage could be due to wet filament, over being a bad batch. Buuuttt if it’s PLA then... I mean, maybe? Oh! And clearing out supports from holes! Usually I just drill them out if I can. If not, a small piece of chromed rod (from a former 3D printer, no less) gently hammered into place breaks and compresses the supports so you’re able to remove them with long nose pliers and o-ring tools, and gravity. :D
You now have a blood bond with your computer. Your blood is in the computer; the computer is in your blood.
Ladyfractic, that was awesome! I love that we see the mishaps on this journey, and so cool to print your own computer.
Thank you! Mishaps are part of the journey and I feel it’s important to keep them included. ☺️
You should try using an dual extrusion printer with water salvabe PVA filament for supports in future.
@@RetroRecipes at 17:01.. well of course Perifractic can do it... I mean he just use the force.. 🤣😂🤡

That is a wonderfully over-engineered case, but the moment when the keyboard fit into its recess just perfectly was very satisfying.

Wow, Great job! I usually use 3d printer to rebuild missing parts for my restoration projects, but this 3d printed computer case is amazing 😁!
That project took a lot of patience! I am thinking of getting a 3D printer, it has so many uses and possibilities... Great video and looking forward to Part II.
Bravo, Ladyfratic! Fantastic episode! I can’t wait to see part 2.
Tree supports are great! I use them for almost all prints. They print faster, use less filament, and I think they're easier to remove.

I like how the cabinet came out and I use a Flash Forge 3d printer and have had some filament tangle too .
Every plastic crunching sound made my skin crawl as I know exactly how it can go from awesome to fail art in a split second.
Love this video, it's a cool build!

Some good advice: always wear (safety) glasses when removing supports ;-)
It definitely crossed my mind, and my eyes. 🫣
Safety squints engaged!
And gloves... :)
All things considered Ladyfractic, for a first attempt this turn out pretty friggin amazing! Took me a year to tune my 3D printer to print reliably. 👍
Something I love about your channel, are the dogs thought bubbles.

That is so cool. I give you all the credit in the world for you patience. Cute puppy dogs. ☺️
You can take off the supports way easyer if you turn on "support roof", but you need to set Cura to show the "advanced" or "all" settings.
i used reguar supports and they came right off - no issue
Perifractic is so lucky to have someone who shares his interests!
so apparently I need a heat gun and a metal spatula. I just built my Prusa I3 MK3S last weekend and I've been having trouble with supports as well.

print out a filament guide close th the spool, thread through it, that will prevent the filament going back and over.

I have considered something like this for quite a while, but I kept running into a major limitation of PLA plastic: When heated, it shrinks, and not at all uniformly. I've had a few projects go by the wayside because they involved other pieces of equipment that generated heat, and so cause warpage and drooping in short order. :'(
They were some strong supports! Just discovered your channel, now on a binge :)

I have at least two more solo videos on the channel you might enjoy! - LF
It looks like an ADM terminal. Impressive job
I'm surprised you didn't have a filament sensor. Mine does, but I put the magnet in backwards so it thought there was filament at all times. But I've fixed that.......only to discover that the upgrade for the multi-material upgrade (MMU2) has a different mechanism so that wasn't necessary. Same IR sensor different detection method.
I’ve had nothing but problems with 3D Solutech filament. I’m almost glad to see I’m not the only one.

9:57 Blood! You have slaked the project gods' thirst! Therefore the project will turn out awesome....

If not, a small piece of chromed rod (from a former 3D printer, no less) gently hammered into place breaks and compresses the supports so you’re able to remove them with long nose pliers and o-ring tools, and gravity. :D
LadyFractic: blue keyboard switches FTW! They are the best for retro "clicky" responsive keystrokes
Nice work Lady Fractic. I too love a clicky keyboard :)
I'm really glad TH-cam recommended me this video! You have a new sub. :) Can't wait for part 2!
Great recipode Ladyfractic, nice cracking action! I also liked the cameo from muscle bound hunk #1. Keep up the excellent work Teamfractic.
that looks awesome, makes me wonder if there is a print out there that allows for a tkl and an ipad screen🤔
