Thanks, yes it certainly is a game changer if you like to homebrew.

Excellent video!!! Thanks for all of the detailed information and taking the time to share.

Yep ultimately “makers” was just how people lived before it became a subculture. Thank you and great video!

[@houseofhamradio]

Yes! Thank you!

Thanks for the overview on 3d printing. I've now got myself an Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo. I'm going to begin printing the more flexible PLA+ for prints for portable use. When I need to make things for permanent outdoor installations I will defintely try PETG or PETG+. Are you able to share the prints shown?

[@houseofhamradio]

I need to get my models put up on sites like Printables and Thingaverse. Just need to buckle down and do it.

I buy a ender 3 V2 ( I have no idea about this printers) by your video recommendation. Witch is the best plastic wire for ender 3 V2 and our ham radio project and designs?

[@houseofhamradio]

Starting out, I would go with Hatchbox PLA. There is a link in the description for it on Amazon. As for learning about your printer, there are a ton of good videos on KZbin to get you started.

@@houseofhamradio Ok many thanks for all.

In a few years time people will think of 3D printing just as we think of printing a document today. I can even imagine scenarios where an amputee will print him or herself a limb that fits better than anything professional available to them, for a fraction of the cost. We are limited only by our imagination with this technology. Great video and thanks for the links ;) 73 from N.Ireland

Absolutely. 3D Printing just keeps getting easier and easier. 73 WV7W
