From Fail to Function: Reusing 3D Printed Mistakes

In this video, I show you how to turn your failed and excess 3D prints into a valuable tool for your painting hobby! Discover common reasons why 3D prints fail, including issues with supports, resin changes, and environmental factors. I'll share my experiences with a pile of failed prints and demonstrate how I salvaged some of them by painting or combining parts from different prints.
But that's not all - I'll guide you through an innovative way to give your failed prints a second life by creating a textured palette. Using tools like an electric Dremel, hacksaw, and hot glue, I'll transform a lid from a Tupperware container into a versatile painting tool. This palette is perfect for testing dry brush techniques, experimenting with color schemes, and more.
