My name is Chris, I am a 3D printing hobbyist from australia. I dont really specialise in anything specific, but 3D printed tools and tabletop accessories are some things youll probably seen quiet often. I do all my 3d printing on a Ender 3, which I highly recommend as a budget printer. Currently I only run 1 printer but I hope to expand that in the future. Recently acquired a photon 0 to do resin printing with. I like to share all my 3D printing ideas for free although I do plan to sell stuff in the future. Most of my projects will be mostly 3D printed with a few non printed components included, these can often be found on ebay. I actually use the cheapest filament I can get for all my projects, again I hope to change this in the future.

I skimmed through ur vid list all the way back to ur batmobile, both sweet design, & really well put together enjoyable vid.

[@danon-theautisticmaker8112]

nice! I just happened across & enjoyed ur tap rig vid, & now this.

How is possible that on this channel not billion views? Hope here will be more people who will appreciate that quality continent

I'm going to guess because he spreads the tutorials and guides to build one thing over 12 different videos, and basically makes you watch every single one of the projects hes done to complete any one of them. to complete the ball vice xl for example, you need, at minimum, to watch this, the 2 videos for the ball vice, and another video that was supposed to be linked but isn't that tells you how to actually assemble the swivel vice teeth as well as visit 6 different printables pages. Edit: sorry about this man. Don't let me discourage you, I was VERY frustrated with your ball build printable...or...printables, when I wrote this and should have been less of a douche. I left the comment for posterity to not hide my shame. It's really good of you to post things like this that you worked a lot on. If I could give some constructive criticism in a more APPROPRIATE WAY I'd suggest/request/beg that you work on the organization of your files, tutorials, and videos. To describe my experience...it was supremely frustrating to go from the original tutorial, to the xl tutorial, to the tap tutorial trying to find the way to assemble the little fractal vice pieces, looking for what parts i was missing in the original (the flat vice parts dont even exist in the printable for the ball OR the xl ball so i couldn't do a flat one) then trying to find some clip or piece that i had somehow missed, again, to attach the smallest part of the fractal vice, only to eventually find the part where you do tie it with elastic string and a piece of wire. I'd also recommend putting the TPU alternatives in the file set so people can have a more printable option without having to have previous knowledge of its existence and go looking for it. Once i found the part of the video with the elastic it went together alright, but honestly just cutting a clip out of the video to show how its done would be very helpful, as well as just being a bit more organized in general, for example listing the quantity of the printed parts needed in the filename of the part, and possibly using the way that the voron printer stl files are labeled with [a] for alternate color and without it for main color that way someone can reproduce the color scheme of the build exactly as you intend. You've got a lot of talent as a maker, and I should be helping to bring other makers up, not tear them down, so again, sorry for being so dang snippy and thank you for being willing to share your work with the rest of us.

You’re videos are amazing keep up the awesome work

[@homemadetools]

Nice work following up with this build guide. We shared this video on our homemade tools forum this week 😎

[@chrisalton1]

cool project as always

[@BC5391]

very well thought through

[@Mawyman2316]

Maybe i missed you mentioning it, and I don’t see it on printables, but are you printing all the standard parts in pla?

[@ericlotze7724]

Yeah, please post material(s) (or at least which you used), infill, and more information/even profiles if you want. I’ll try and make an OSE wiki page or something on it later next time I’m on my desktop (on mobile right now), and actually make a printables account etc (just got my printer recently), but i think *posting the Material(s) used, and infill percent used is basically the bare minimum* (short of just posting the files, WHICH IS GREAT, half these channels barely even show the build process, let alone release the CAD lol)

[@bpindel]

Anyone have alternative sizes? Cannot find m4x80mm coupling nuts anywhere...

[@bpindel]

Also.... which parts guide should I be following... on thingiverse it says m4x50mm in your video it says m4x65mm. 7:25
