[@TheMajorTom2010]

@@felurianmasters4369 That's a bummer. I am using external speakers on my laptop, and in a fairly quiet environment, so I'm sure that helps my sound.

[@felurianmasters4369]

@@TheMajorTom2010 ya, id rather turn it down than not be able to adjust further. But I mention this as advice to the creator. Seems like that's the cost line between successful channels, and those who auditor to grow. The audio levels are always lower, regardless of production quality on smaller channels. The big guys always have lots and clear sound. Not trying to be difficult

I would LOVE to learn how to print in multiple colors with only one extruder!

[@thenextlayer]

I can do that! Make sure you're subbed with bell icon on so you don't miss it. I often do a video that people request, and then nobody watches it, lol.

[@leonritzer365]

In prusaslicer you can set a color change between layers its pretty easy. There is a guide on their website on how to do it.

[@npumphrey7585]

100% would love to see a video on customizing parts. Pretty new to 3d printing, and between work, full time school, and a 2yo, I haven't really had time to learn anything beyond using cura and printing things.

[@npumphrey7585]

Also would love to see the dual virtual extrusion trick And congratulations on the new little one!

THANK YOU!

[@JacksMacintosh]

A tip for anyone printing the self defense cat: On one side the ears have a little embossing for detail. Make sure you print with that side up so you don't get any weird overhang issues

[@thenextlayer]

Good point

[@bjaurelio]

Congrats on a new boy. As a dad to three boys myself, you will have a lot of fun printing toys for them and teaching them how 3d printing works.

[@thenextlayer]

Thanks! Appreciate it

[@tonyp4894]

[@ashokmoghe8035]

Definitely love to see a video on openSCAD. In particular it would be great to see how to design a custom lego block with a personalized message on it. Also, looking forward to watching in details how to do multicolor printing on a simple Ender 3 style printer. Good luck growing the channel - I am already a subscriber.

[@FrenchyAU]

Actually a little note regarding lost Lego pieces, I'm pretty sure Lego do offer a free service or something where they'll send you a missing piece or something

[@ThirdDynamic]

YAY!! Congratulations! I hope your baby boy is 100% healthy and happy! I bought a SV06 through your link. I can't wait to get it and begin my journey of 3D printing for hobby, and hopefully a little extra on the side. Enjoy the coming weeks, take as much time as you need with your family. It is the most important thing in life. We can wait for all your awesome projects!

[@thenextlayer]

Thank you for the kind words AND for using my link. I think the SV06 is a GREAT first printer, and MUCH easier than starting with a Prusa that you need to build on your own :) Let me know how you like it - mine is in the mail, can't wait to use it.

[@pera0perkan]

[@3dPrintCreator]

Congratulations with your next layer. I like the video a lot.

[@jdl3408]

For the piggy bank, I drop this in mesh mixer and put a letter on the belly (first letter of kid’s name) as a customization. The kids really like that. Although you can’t have a spare stock ahead of time with that method.

[@thenextlayer]

Nice! I haven't tried MeshMixer, does it make it pretty easy?

[@jdl3408]

@@thenextlayer I was wrong... I tried in Mesh Mixer but failed, I think because it was the first time I used it. (There is no way to directly make letters in mesh mixer. I will try again because I think I know the right way to do it now.) I ended up using Tinkercad. That was super easy but I lost a lot of the nice fidelity in that model. It came out a bit "low poly". I think the easy but correct workflow would be to generate a STL of the letter in Tinkercad (or whatever) and then combine to two STLs in mesh mixer. This would preserve the fidelity.

What material do you use for guitar pick? It seems like material matters. From my experience nylon seems flexible but durable. Perhaps PLA is a suitable replacement for nylon?
