3d Printing For Woodworkers / 3D Printers Solve Problems In The Workshop / Improve Your Workflow

In this video, I demonstrate how a 3D printer can become a very useful tool in your workshop, especially for woodworkers. I have been using my 3-D printer in the workshop for quite some time now. It has been a very useful tool, allowing me to make parts for my projects, templates for my router, tool holders, and even tools. In this video, however I will show you how a 3D printer can solve common problems in your workshop and improve your workflow.

Probably the most useful 3D printed woodworking items I've seen yet. Nice, and thank you!

[@milkybaravenger]

Excellent video, you can improve the strength of t fixing holes by adding extra walls for strength I use 6-8 with a 0.4 nozzle or 3-4 with a 0.8 also if you are using petg you can get very strong parts printing slow and hot with only 30-50% cooling

Anyone mention you look a little like Liam Neeson- In his voice....." If you harm or fail to return my tools, nothing will stop me from finding you. Once I do, I will do the unimaginable.....I will take your tools and you will never see them again. LOL Great channel just subscribed - Mick

[@ArtisanMade]

Haha!! I’m dying!!! I actually have been told that before.

[@delxinogaming6046]

He does have ‘a very particular set of skills’

[@tonycicciarelli2308]

Great video, thank you! Not sure about the Liam Neeson as I was paying attention to the prints and not the artist, but I definitely heard Michael Rapaport 😂.

[@AngieWilliamsDesigns]

Ha! I just watched another of your videos and asked in the comments if you made other things with your 3D printer. Looks like you did. Great items. Just subscribed.

[@ArtisanMade]

So many possibilities with the 3d printer. I have a few more of these videos coming out at some point this year.

[@matthewwysocki5019]

Very nice. Would you be able to print a Y adapter for Festool CT MIdi with blast gates? I can’t seem to find anything that works. Thanks!

[@ArtisanMade]

I’m not familiar with the festool brand, but I’m sure you can. I’ve seen other y adapters for other brands of tools.

[@kerrybrookshire2479]

Anyone know the thread pitch for the 4” hose ?

[@johankorten2797]

Thanks for sharing. B.t.w. you suffer from under extrusion problems in your prints. In my experience they are tricky to overcome, but by trying and tweaking you can overcome it.

[@non7sens]

I use 3d printer all the time working with wood. Its a game changer!

[@ArtisanMade]

Completely agree.

[@JasonHalvorsen]

Any advice on the best filament material to use for these projects?

[@ArtisanMade]

I’ve been using overture petg. It has been great. I buy it on Amazon

[@JimRimS4S]

wow, I just finished printing that very blast gate and retrieved it 2 minutes ago.And then I saw it on your channel

[@leesutton]

Great video. First time I’ve looked up 3D printing and wood working, and it wasn’t just painting holders. Thank you.

[@Bruceanddenise]

ALL good stuff!

[@kevsthename]

IM sure you have been asked loads of times. would you be prepared to sell the STL for the trivet please? I really want to make this thank you

[@ArtisanMade]

I’m not sure which one you are referring to. Check the description. I believe I linked everything. Some are free and some are for sale.

[@kevsthename]

@@ArtisanMade it's the green trivet template you are cutting at the beginning of the video Thank you

[@ArtisanMade]

Send me an email and I will send you the stl file. [e-mail]

[@typeaboutit]

The best solution is always the easiest solution, and in that case I still would have made the clamp holders out of wood, but some great ideas here though :)

[@IvanIvanov-jv6nl]

Отличные приспособления! Спасибо автору за такие креативные идеи!

[@mickkoldy1323]

The feet for the camps is just fantastic. I don't have a 3d printer but, can crank out some on the bandsaw. Not sure why I never thought of this. Great idea!!!

[@ryandury]

Love the pipe stand idea

[@goodwinml]

Awesome ideas. I bought my first 3d printer last June. I have 2 at my house and 1 at my shop. lol. Last 2 machines were free, I paid for 9 and 12 rolls (under $180 each) respectively of filaments and machines were free. 😊h 1. Ender 3 S1 new 2. Ender 3 Pro used 3. Ender 3 Original used All modded with linear rails and more.

[@ArtisanMade]

The possibilities are endless!

[@ryanzakszeski4770]

Wow actually useful prints! This is great!!

[@wilmerwoodworks]

Awesome Video! I was thinking of designing and printing a bar clamp lift when I was struggling with a recent glue-up, now all I have to do is print a few of these and I'll be good to go! What type of plastic did you use? PLA or ABS?

[@ArtisanMade]

Thank you!! Petg

[@wilmerwoodworks]

@@ArtisanMade Good to know!

[@jamesstoffel6835]

Some great 3D tools to help in my shop! Thank you for posting the video and the links for the prints!

[@fatihsengul1980]

I like everyting, but i see an upgrade potential and would like to share it. The sandpaper trays. You could print the grit numbers on the sides so you can sea what you need without having to guess whats what when they are stacked.

[@ArtisanMade]

Thank you for sharing!

[@cecilomar]

You should check gridfinity for your drawer organization. No need to re-print, just adapt them to that system. It's a rabbit hole, though.

[@ArtisanMade]

Yea, already been down there and keep going back

[@cecilomar]

@@ArtisanMade I've been designing and printing a few here and there, but I want to use the CNC to cut the tops out of wood. I'll glue 3D printed bases to the tops so I don't have to CNC the bottom. I also want to make the baseplates out of hardboard.

[@joosepkunder]

Very good ideas, thank you for sharing!

[@themontashu1]

All your stuff looks super annoying to print. Look some some DfM tips for printing. I tend to redesign anything with overhangs, bridges, or needing support.

[@ArtisanMade]

Actually, they are very easy to print, but good luck with your redesigns.

[@themontashu1]

@@ArtisanMade I do cad daily and am either running a mill or a printer. The clamp stands? Just I’ll in under, not hard, no luck required. Good luck with stuff that most Enders don’t like!

[@jimrosson6702]

Great ideas thanks for sharing

[@unebonnevie]

Great! Thank you! What is the 3D printer you use? I am looking to invest in a 3D printer, but there so many out there. It takes too much time to evaluate each from reading each's descriptions. I am looking to make cases for things that I create.

[@refixed]

Looks like he has the Bambu x1 carbon. I bought the same one last spring for a project, having no experience at all with 3d printing, but being fairly tech savvy. I use it semi regularly for little projects when I have time to sit down with Fusion 360 for a couple of hours, and I haven't had a single print fail yet -- it's been awesome, it's worth the money in my opinion. It's more or less marketed as the first real user-friendly printer.

[@ArtisanMade]

I’m using bambu lab. I bought it in December. I originally started with the Ender three. That was an OK machine to introduce yourself to the 3-D printing world. If you are certain that you are going to be using a 3-D printer for some time, I would recommend buying a better quality machine. A lot of people use Prusa because they are very reliable. Recently, new companies have entered the market with more modern machines.that are much more user friendly The one that I have now is much faster and produces a great print quality. The only problem is that new products have not been tested over time and there is a much smaller community out there to help out when you have a problem. So far though my bambù printer resembles a Ferrari compared to the ender.

[@kb3cxe]

This was GREAT!!!!!

[@josephpk4878]

Love this channel for new ideas in the shop. Get some Weldon-16 for a better bond on your 3d printed parts - it sets up pretty quick and it holds well. There's some crazy layer lines on those prints... if you're ever going to do a print for display, you may want to do a tune-up on that awesome Bambu Lab.

[@ArtisanMade]

Thanks for the tip. Just picked up some weld on 16. The prints with the layer lines were made on the ender 3. The bambù lab is new and pretty amazing. Time to throw away the ender.

[@josephpk4878]

Get some glass syringes with stainless needles (16 gauge works well) - the stuff is messy and tends to just pour out of the tube. Dump your syringe and needle into a glass jar with a couple ounces of acetone, lay the needle down and suck some acetone into the syringe and leave it there till next use. When glueing, I also have a smaller jar of acetone that I can put the tip into between uses, as the glue will immediately start gobbing up on you - the acetone keeps things viscous and clean and the upright position of the syringe keeps the glue from oozong up the walls.

[@ArtisanMade]

@@josephpk4878thanks for all the information. This should save me some time and money as I learn how to use this stuff. It sounds similar to an adhesive that I used many years ago on plexiglass. It seamed to fuse the plexiglass by melting it. Is it possible that this is the same stuff?

[@josephpk4878]

@@ArtisanMade Not the same stuff - that stuff is super viscous and Weldon-16 is like a light syrup which takes a bit to work its way up a 16 gauge needle. It starts gumming up immediately and starts stringing when you're working with it, so you have to be efficient, That's why the extra jar with a bit of acetone is a good way to hold the syringe when not in use - the acetone keeps everything fluid and clean. Throw a little rag over the jar to keep the fumes back and to give a quick wipe of the needle when pulling it out.

[@ArtisanMade]

@@josephpk4878 got it. Thank you again for all of the information. Super helpful!

Selling them on Etsy? 😂 3D L

[@joefairfax]

Great video, you had me until the end when you revealed you charge for your stl files. Even in the beginning of this video you point out that the wonderful 3D printing community offers many many free print files then you go and charge for yours which is so contrary to how your video started. So disappointing, but good luck with your greed.

[@ArtisanMade]

It takes me about 30-40 hours of work to put out a video on average. This includes building, filming, and editing. If you like the Content and the ideas that I share, feel free to apply them in your shop. If you would like to support the work that i do and help me keep my channel running, you are welcome to purchase my stl files or even woodworking project plans. And by the way, I have created stl files and shared them with the 3d print community. Greed is when someone only takes and gives nothing back in return.

[@joefairfax]

@@ArtisanMade Actually "greed" is defined as "a selfish and excessive desire for more of something (such as money) than is needed. *Webster Dictionary In this case charging for something that is otherwise offered for free. Especially $15 for a print file, come on. That is excessive. Also, the time you spend on your videos should have no impact on the price of your print files. KZbin has a monetization system in place so you should look into that as a reward for your time and effort on your videos. I did like the video I thought it was well done. I just think it's messed up to start your video talking about using free print files to enhance woodworking then end with advertising yours that cost money.

[@aggyboy1580]

What 3D printer do you use/recommend?

[@ArtisanMade]

If you are just curious about 3d printers, I wouldn't spend a lot of money just yet. I was using the creality ender 3 v2. (under $300) It was a descent entry level machine. I learned a lot with it. I am now using Bambu Lab. You can get the P1P for $600. It is like a Ferrari compared to the ender. Much faster and great print quality, and many bells and whistles but, relatively new to the market so not time tested.
