28(ish) 3D Printed Tools That Are ACTUALLY Useful!

[@thenextlayer]

Thanks so much for watching! I LOVE hearing from you all, and I read every comment, so let me know what you think, or any ideas you have for future videos, in the comments below!

[@Nevio_024]

Hi! A „Tools for 3d Printing“ video would be really nice!

[@3dprintedhardware]

Email me, I'll hook you up with my 3d printable tool set which includes hardware tools like an adjustable wrench, pliers and a 12 piece wrench set..standard and metric 👍 I have more tools on the way that will be added to the set, many of which are in the final testing stage right now. Although the tools in the tool set will work best if printed in metal or high temp hardened plastics, they are still fun and even useful around the house if printed in PLA, especially if your using the tools on newer, rust free nuts and bolts (or 3d printed nuts and bolts). I think this set would be perfect for your next "useful 3d printed tools" video. Btw..I just found your channel, looks awesome, I subscribed!!

[@Nevio_024]

@@3dprintedhardware That sounds nice! Can I get that too? What‘s your email?

[@glittalogik]

I'm honestly so impressed with how enthusiastically you've taken on advice and constructive criticism, it's genuinely awesome to see your production and editing style developing - and your subscriber count climbing - with every new video :) Did something weird happen to the footage of you at 10:25 ? I'm watching in 1440p and that bit seems super compressed...

@@3dprintedhardware Thank you!

[@cmcferin]

Would really like to hear about what different things like bearings, hardware, and others were super useful for you!

[@thenextlayer]

On it!!!

[@bigdogbigben]

@@thenextlayer Yes please

[@almaefogo]

M3 screws kit should be included with every printer most of the 3d printed things use M3 screws and nuts

[@GenJester]

Yeah sooner the better on this one. Aliexpress shipping times are slow.

[@rolanddube2169]

I just subscribed based on seeing that video. I look forward to it.

[@PDXGTP]

This topic is the reason I bought a 3D printer, I'm frustrated with suppliers not providing tools within a reasonable amount of time, over pricing, and missing design features.. I solved all of that by learning AutoCad and getting to know my printer. Thank you, it's people such as yourself that have helped me get to know the in's and out's of my printer.

[@thenextlayer]

My pleasure thanks for taking hte time to comment!

[@polarbearjf]

Yep! Would definately love to see your 3D Printing tool collection, keep up the great work! Also the bearing screws etc you have for just in case projects would be awsome too!

[@Mr2at]

Ordered my first 3D printer earlier today. This is the first 3D relevant channel ive subscribed to.

[@Bcjc3]

All the videos! Do all the videos you mentioned! We want to see tools for 3d printing. We want to see extra parts and hardware for 3d printing. We want to see every video idea you can come up with!

[@thenextlayer]

Deal!

[@stewartg2101]

LOL, literally only just watched your last vid and left a comment saying "hell yes" to the tool vid and low and behold here it is just like magic. thank you. Hell yes again to the 3d printing tools used in 3d printing vid. Loving this channel.👍👍

[@stewartjames932]

Thanks!

[@bc4yt]

Super keen for the extra components video. Tools would be interesting also 👍

[@viviennepatterson5950]

It’s Black Friday and I’m buying our first 3d printer. Was stoked to watch this video as these tools have justified the cost of the printer. Super useful. I also appreciate you talking about your mistakes. Have a great Christmas.

[@pospa7075]

Thank you so much for this video, I am beginner printer and I didnt know what to print, this video helped me a lot to decide what to print.

[@GMx_1]

So the tools all turned out to look much more useful than I might have guessed. It is very impressive where this tech is going - it wasn't that long ago that I thought that 3DP would never really end up capable of production level parts but it is getting closer and closer. Great video!

[@thenextlayer]

You should see the newer printers. This video is old and the parts were crappy. Today we have moved way past

[@DEtchells]

Another vote for a video on useful components(!) I’m all about having stock on hand so I have it when I need it, being able to just place one big Ali express order to get equipped would be great!

[@thenextlayer]

Awesome! Thank you! Make sure you're subbed, I'm already working on the video :)

[@Foxuniverso]

i work with leather as a hobby, you just opened my mind in such a ridiculous way that i think i can say you changed my world. thanks dude lol, now i really, really want a 3d printer

[@thenextlayer]

WOW! Thanks! that's a HUGE compliment. Check out the Prusa link in my description, I still recommend that one :)

[@NochSoEinKaddiFan]

The way you used that pocket hole jig was actually painfull. If the drill is not the same size as the hole you feed it through to the wood, you don't have any benefit from the jig. and if it does have the same size, the drill will eat your jig, so you need a metal surface inside there. Good idea in principle, but this is a one use disposable tool if you use it right. And if you don't use it right, you don't have to use it at all, because it does nothing for you.

[@josiahbaumgartner7643]

Waaah waaah

[@IanFitty]

I wonder if brass inserts would be a good addition. Should be easy to find and hold up for a bit even though it’s pretty soft.

[@NochSoEinKaddiFan]

@@IanFitty It might, certainly better than just trying to guide your drill with pure plastic

[@dustyshifflett391]

@@josiahbaumgartner7643 I'm positive you are just as painful to watch use tools

[@curtsiekert]

Perhaps this is true for someone like yourself.

[@VeganEmpanada]

Please yes video for tools! And not specifically 3d printed tools, but actual tools I need. I just got my first 3d printer and I want to not have to head to the store every time I see a tool I’ll need.

[@msk3905]

Getting a 3d printer for xmas, definitely printing bench dogs, that screw measurer, battery holders, iPhone holder for car that integrates my wire free charger, clamp stands right out of the gate. I’m sure between now and then will come up with several other things.

[@chezcotton]

12:20 IT’S CALLED A TROWEL!!! Surely a hand shovel would be a shovel for moving hands lol. Cool video btw, you’ve helped me quite a bit.

Yours is by far the best selection of printable tools that are actually useful. You're a clever guy. Please make more videos! One small thing. Maybe set your camera to fixed focus because it wanders a bit during some of your presentations. A minor thing, to be sure.

Honestly... Ive been on the fence about buying a 3D printer but never considered printing out tools. This for sure was the selling point.

[@frankroquemore4946]

I normally only subscribe to a channel when: 1. It’s a channel where I enjoy most of the videos I watch 2. The videos are ones that I WANT to be spending my time on (I might enjoy fail compilations, but I’d never subscribe to a fail channel because I don’t want to encourage myself to waste time) You just got a new subscriber! And I’ve only seen two of your videos. lol that’s about as fast as I’ve ever subscribed to anyone. I really hope your channel blows up because you give some great information in a great package. Don’t be discouraged by a low subscriber count. I think many people (especially in the technical side of KZbin) are slow to jump onto a bandwagon until that bandwagon is “proven” to those people. Your insanely rapid rise in view count should be an indicator of how unexpectedly helpful your videos are, and I think the subscriber count will lag behind but it will climb if you keep doing what you’re doing.

[@tomsmith3045]

Thanks for this! I was expecting the list to have maybe 3-4 useful tools out of the giant list, but you presented MANY useful tools. You also presented tools that weren't just specific to 3D printing, which is even better. I'd love to see integration of 3D prints with other building techniques, such as woodworking and working with metal. As an example, 3D printed bushings to work with steel square tubing, to permit rotation or telescoping designs that may require some mig welding, but that don't need lathe or mill work, because of 3D.

Btw for all of the screw measurers and fillet gauge you don't need to print in 2 colors, you can print it in one and get spray paint. Spray some paint on a flat piece of cardboard and press the side with the numbers/letters onto the cardboard and voila, you have easy to read numbers.
