For the money you charge for resins and printers, a proper comparison should be FDM printed PEEK not cheap 20c PLA.

Stuff Made Here has inspired me on so many levels. The breadth of problem solving that is demonstrated in each video is mind boggling. Huge thanks for sharing your work to the community.

Es una comparación injusta, porque contra PLA? porque no contra un Nylon HDT?. Si quieren promocionar sus productos, háganlo apropiadamente. Yo respeto la impresión 3D. Esta comparación podo ser mejor para fines de ingeniería. Saludos.

Kudos to Formlabs for doing this. It’s certainly a different side of Shane than most if us are used to. And a company that would create and post an interview like this has some serious talent at the top. Well done to all.

by the way form labs love nylon 12 has the best texture in my opinion

2 monotone people talking wouldn't usually be this entertaining but that was really informative.

Try mix to mold resin it’s surprisingly heat tolerant

Can we make a dinner plate food safe?

I'd reduce the ease of use for the resin printer to 3 or 4 stars given that it needs its own enclosure and dedicated hardware due to post-print curing and fumes. :P

Maybe a ceramic nozzle would last longer?

Scale... they're talking about scale when discussing the tiny changes that multiply out to massive changes in time or quality.

Well you could electroplate them with (insert preferred Metal here) that way they could get more time and research from each test . ( Transparent aluminium)

I wonder why the high temp resin wasn't used? That resin is also clear? no? I know it may still be way above the temp but it would last a bit longer right?

print some keycaps, too

Shane should be a role model for the current generation. it's a joy to watch his videos. Smart, humorous and entertaining😊

bad 😢😮

Amazing interview. I'd recommend it to tech companies everywhere.

Hes giving you all free advice and you are complaining about him saying uh? Entitled much?? 😂

Hey! Can i send these designs to a 3d printer slicer (bambu studio) to print? I have a diamond and would like to create some samples for my girlfriend to try out.

so what is the difference beetwen this form 4 and form 4b??? any difference on hardware?

How much is it?

God bless Shirley❤

God Bless these Techs and Doctors

Time to never buy a formlabs product again. :)

They are literally making things less affordable and less accessible by merging. This is incredible.

They had the opportunity to be the next prusa. But naw. Lol. They do t care about makers. They care bout money.

Lol. That sucks. Micronics was supposed to be the good guy. Money talks. What a L.

Wow this will be a great collab, I cannot wait to see Formlabs quality in a machine like Micronics. Can't wait to see the end machine, Keep it up guys 👍

I think we need your technology for our project. It looks like we need sintering in the output process, can you give us any information about the tolerance before and after?

This video is just insulting. You did a great job killing your competition you dont need to rub it in. We were so close to affordable at home SLS printing and Formlabs killed that dream.

Topologia optimization and the difference to AI is: AI uses heuristic optimization algorithms, while TO is gradient based, is mathematicaly build

I love the angle snapping AND the Shift key modifier to snap at 15 degrees. Maybe add Control + Shift for 5 degree snaps?

They ended up not even providing an open material license for my fleet of existing Formlabs printers… just trying to give us pennies on the dollar for swallowing up Micronics, and still they wont even give what they had promised. Shameful.

When could I print with Wax 40 on form 4 ?

Can confirm that sample part is very springy. I was bending it, I let go and it hit my lip. Nothing bad, just thought it was funny

great video!

So so cool

hearing the CEO publicly talking taking ownership on mishaps and on how to improve culture is admirable and setting a great example on good leadership.

Micronics has something that Form Labs hooked on. It's not that they have the same vision. Micronics is a clear example of Future Competition. I buy you and make you disappear, that is normal in these Businesses. Ok, hopefully it is for the benefit of the consumer.

Nice. Glad to see angle snapping added.

Can it be testest with sahara dessert sand? I realy want to see some Experiments

I'm glad you pointed out the summary card could be re-docked as I prefer it back there. Angle snapping is good, but if angles could be absolute to the original model orientation rather than relative, that'd be helpful too.

What a dystopia! Innovative solutions that is someone tries to make affordable will be consumed by the conglomorates.

A 3D cello print .... Hats off and bows up 🎩🎻. That is fantastic! There is a chunk that sounded like modest mouse "building nothing out of something" or "the moon and Antarctica " where you have reverb med/large room sized. Warm tones, the woodyist of tone-al textures and there was the most beautifully haunting harmonic feedback, and both sounds slowly dance, sorrowful and passionate....The bit that was played before..... that lovely rendition of the ultra platinum classic "smoke on the g.d. water" ...😶.

Formlabs and the ex-Micronics you should just stop talking about this acquisition. The bloggers and reviewers that got the Micronics unit try to put a positive spin, but it is clear the community view this negative. On one hand this community is not your target audience anymore, because you are a level up in price and quality. However your brand's image might still take a hit. Just stop and keep quite.

Great move for Henry and the founders of Micronics!

Smart move by micronics though, probably realized the product could not be made reliably for $5k retail and cashed in Meanwhile formlabs gets 2000 new customers for their $25k machine by offering it for $9k

Open material license! Wow! I look forward to the day we laugh at Formlabs like we laugh at the Stratasys cartridges with an RFID chip and roll of uncolored ABS for the low low price $200
