AMAZING 3D PRINTER FROM ELEGOO!

[@PAM-ud9lv]

Wow that was amazing Helen. Cannot believe how alike Billy and Rob are and omg Hattie and Katie. That will be well used by them all. Thanks Helen. Take care.

[@Helenmaryjo]

They are alike. The whole family love it. xx

[@JoyceAberdour]

Gosh, how alike are Billy and Rob. ❤

[@Helenmaryjo]

They are xx

[@lauraannemclean8620]

I bought a Cricut machine for my two granddaughters’ Christmas based on watching your video. They were over the moon. I am thinking that this Christmas is now sorted! 😊

[@Helenmaryjo]

What a good idea. So sensbile to get one joint present that they can really get some use from and learn new skills xx

[@helenparker3165]

Amazing what you can do now a days . The grandkids will be in their element. Xx

[@Helenmaryjo]

They are enjoying it. xx

[@anndudman9369]

What an amazing video. I am deciding whether to show my husband this as I just know he would be in his element working out all the things he could make. Amazing technology, great for grandkids and diversion from iPads and games. Wow Billy and Bob, two peas in a pod .

[@Helenmaryjo]

Fab! Thank you xx

[@skincarefan7742]

Looks amazing, don’t think I could master it but fascinating to watch. Thank you all for sharing. x

[@Helenmaryjo]

I think some of the software now is almost plug and play. They will get more popular I'm sure of it. xx

[@wildwolf2567]

That is super interesting. Great technology. Also very relaxing in a way. Thank you Helen, and I must say you girls are all so alike.

[@Helenmaryjo]

Thank you xx

[@maureenrhysjones4643]

Amazing! Thank you for this, It will keep me up with the Grandies! xxx

[@Helenmaryjo]

Glad you enjoyed it xx

[@DeeSmith-b7c]

That is AMAZING….. Thank you for taking the time to show us. Wow!!!

[@Helenmaryjo]

I find this stuff so fascinating. The kids love it xx

[@betsybeecolorado]

Thanks for showing us the 3 D printer Helen, I've never seen one! Very cool!

[@Helenmaryjo]

I had no idea what they could do but they are using them for all sorts of things now. xx

[@carolmcdougall7138]

Hi Helen, How fantastic is that. Great video such good. Xx

[@Helenmaryjo]

Thank you xx

[@Primarniqueen]

My son runs the dept at UCL where students use these - my husband ( a sculptor) got one for xmas. They said there is a free programme called " Rodin" that enables you to change drawings into 3 d models . He is going to make my 5 yr old granddaughters scribbles into models .

[@Helenmaryjo]

How fabulous, I'll tell my son in law xx

[@KevsArtStuff]

Slicing is the process it goes through to slice the 3D Model. It literally creates hundreds of slices, like a loaf of sliced bread or a stack of cards, but super thin 0.08mm (depending on settings) so it can print each slice based on the 3D model you loaded. It's already a 3D Model when you load it into the software :) If you want to create your own models, you can use something like Blender (which is free to have and free to download), but there is a learning curve to using it. Great video though.... you got a sub from me :)

[@Helenmaryjo]

Welcome and thank you x

[@lindathomas76]

Another great video, I love that you show us these different things, I found it really interesting and I’m tempted to buy one and have a little fun and see what i can make. Technology has come along way. Thanks for keeping it real and including us in your family life. Happy new year to you all.❤

[@Helenmaryjo]

They really are amazing. And like any new hobby, it takes a while to get to grips with it. But personally, I think it's good to learn new skills. xx

[@sandralow9598]

Hi Helen, wow that’s so interesting, great video once again ❤

[@Helenmaryjo]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you xx

[@BIRGITTAQF]

This would really be something for the grandkids. They would really appreciate it. What will come next. Oh how old it makes me. I remember the first copymachine i used with a very acid liquid for to develop the pictures. Lol thanks again Helen for informing us. Have fun ❤

[@Helenmaryjo]

Oh gosh yes I was telling the kids about the stencil machines that we had to use back in the day in the office xx

[@sandracalvey8034]

Another great video, thank you Helen. X

[@Helenmaryjo]

You’re welcome 😊 xx

[@normabrooks2351]

Amazing piece of kit I"I sure your family will enjoy this

[@Helenmaryjo]

They are loving it. xx

[@PaulineLogan-q4q]

The technology this day and age is beyond me ..good video Helen lovely family❤

[@Helenmaryjo]

Ah, thank you xx

[@margien1942]

Helen my younger (78) sister has churned through whatever the newest “thing” in 3Ds and is producing amazing stuff, now attracting thousands of likes in what she thought was a specialist audience. She is a very recent starter in KZbin.

[@Helenmaryjo]

That's great. Well done your sister! xx

[@louisesmith2035]

Wow how technology has moved on. My grandkids would love this. Thanks for the demo. Very interesting. Fantastic. ❤

[@Helenmaryjo]

It's all good skills and fun too xx

[@sandradawson5189]

Wow, that’s amazing. I’ve never seen one before, thank you for showing . 👏

[@Helenmaryjo]

Incredible technology xx

[@christine3358]

I can only imagine how delighted you must have been because you knew your family would go wild for it! I was excited for them. And anyone who does hobbies, I’m sure their mind is racing at the possibilities. Ok, everyone in the family should be more than willing to be able assistants with your channel now after this score!! 😂

[@Helenmaryjo]

That's what I thought! haha xx

[@gillmarshall7760]

Thanks Helen , how interesting! Thank you for sharing xx

[@Helenmaryjo]

My pleasure xx

[@karenporteous3626]

Hair looking good Jo and I love that jumper and scarf combination ! We have a 3d printer too. Husband likes it but I have little to do with it 😂

[@Helenmaryjo]

Ah, thank you xx

[@mags8014]

HB. Thanks for the demo, Helen. I have heard so much about computer printing , but couldn’t visualise how they work. On first hearing about them I thought they would be a bit primitive, but the results are so professional, I think I would be making all sorts of useless things, just for the fun of it!

[@Helenmaryjo]

There is no end to what can be made. I think they're great. xx

[@elaine-f7s5x]

Great piece of kit, my grandson's would love it, my eldest is 15 this year he's taller than me I'm 5' 5" so grown up 🙂❤️❤️

[@Helenmaryjo]

Ah, thank you. They grow up so fast. Not children for long, sadly xx

[@debrabrookes]

Wow,years ago who would have ever thought children could make their own toys etc.Endless possiabilities.Maybe someone could make the plastic recycleable.😂Thankyou for sharing.

[@Helenmaryjo]

They love it. Thank you xx

[@angeladraisey3417]

I’ve always thought these would play a useful part in our homes and have been surprised that up until now they haven’t really taken on. It’s amazing. Thank you. X

[@Helenmaryjo]

I think they will get more popular once people realise that the technology is not that scary. xx

[@StarGirl-l5l]

A family member has had a 3D printer for ages. They use it to make parts for radio control aircraft such as the pilot or parts for the aircraft design. Also used it to make replacement parts for various DIY parts. Thoroughly recommend. I can see a few caravan pieces being made.

[@Helenmaryjo]

Ooh yes, good idea xx

[@lindalucia31]

What a fascinating piece of equipment, I may look into it for a family member, Yourself , your daughter and your granddaughter very much look alike, what a nice looking family you have Helen. Thank You for showing us all about it.

[@Helenmaryjo]

Thank you very much xx

[@elaine58100]

Thank you for showing this. It is amazing, I am a 67 year old gob-smacked woman. I wonder what your mum would make of it all? Makes you wonder what the technology will be like even in the next 20 years... Your daughter and grandchildren are just lovely, people. Hattie is going to be a stunner just like her mum. You must be so proud of them. I can't get over how your daughter and granddaughter look so alike.

[@Helenmaryjo]

Ah, thank you xx

[@anne4083]

Helens mum would probably get the hang of it on the first try!!! She has an apple watch!! I can't even fathom out how to work one of those step counters!! 😂😂😂😂

[@anne4083]

Helen I've always been in awe of these machines the possibilities are endless!

[@Helenmaryjo]

They are! xx

[@Helenmaryjo]

I read this comment to Mum, she said that's as maybe, but I wish I could find my Kindle charger! haha xx

[@carolynhopkinson8642]

My son got one, so handy to make bits for any broken bits on hooks, vacuum cleaners or anything. X

[@Helenmaryjo]

My son wants one too. The uses are endless xx

[@maureencomley7909]

Amazing so interesting to watch 😊

[@Helenmaryjo]

Thank you xx

[@alisonmckenzie1415]

[@renablythman6243]

Soooo lovely to see your lovely grandchildren,what will they do next, ??🤔I'm in the dark ages Helen with tech but it looks amazing ❤❤❤

[@Helenmaryjo]

Having used the cricut machine I have some idea about it all. But the kids are absolutely loving it xx

[@sue2593]

Thank you, Helen x

[@Helenmaryjo]

You are so welcome xx

[@wendywebster-sv2li]

Wow what will they think of next . I can see people getting addicted to making things. Very interesting .x

[@Helenmaryjo]

The kids are loving experimenting and thinking of new projects. All good skills xx

[@SusanClarke-dn5dc]

Hi Helen, can you ask Katie where she got her cardigan from please xx

[@Helenmaryjo]

Hi Susan, sorry for the late reply. Katie thinks it was Tu at Sainsbury's maybe last year or the year before. xx

[@SusanClarke-dn5dc]

@Helenmaryjo thank you xx

[@carolhughes312]

I would love to have a go on one but I wouldn’t know what to make 😂😂😂

[@Helenmaryjo]

I bet if you had a look at some of the ideas online you would soon be wanting to make something xx

[@fiona2125]

Omg....brilliant

[@Helenmaryjo]

Thank you xx

[@collettekelly1522]

God Helen what will we be needing in our home next 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️. .Now it’d be wasted on me but like you my son and son in law would get hour of entertainment out of it .Great video , the children are gorgeous god bless them .take care xxCollette

[@Helenmaryjo]

Thanks Collette xx

[@elianneluxton1730]

Interesting!

[@Helenmaryjo]

Thank you xx

[@marysheehan6982]

That is so cool

[@Helenmaryjo]

It really is. xx

[@ruthcadman2601]

You could work for The Jackal 😂

[@Helenmaryjo]

That would be interesting.... haha xx

[@susanstricker5416]

I have heard the fumes that come off the plastic whilst making are very carcinogenic.

[@Helenmaryjo]

It's important to use it in a well ventilated room. xx

[@thelmabrindley2369]

That is incerdible. Not something I would use, but you can really tell how much use Katie and her family will get from it

[@Helenmaryjo]

They are loving it. xx

[@margaretanne7762]

Is this an AD?

[@Helenmaryjo]

I was gifted the printer. xx

[@SandraMetcalfe]

❤😊

[@diane6037]

The link to Elegoo isn’t working.

[@Helenmaryjo]

New one now, sorry about that xx

[@betty-boo9821]

Your grandson is getting a chisled chin. He's losing his baby face. They're growing up so much

[@Helenmaryjo]

They really are growing fast. He'll be taller than me soon xx

[@danicacharles4221]

My goodness, this is amazing !!! So clever. How grown up Billy and Hattie look ❤❤ It's good to see Katie, too 😊 Thank you for sharing Helen.... Hope you enjoyed your wine 😊❤ ❤ For Dolly

[@Helenmaryjo]

I did! haha xx

[@jmk1962]

Although the technology is impressive, I can't help thinking of all the plastic stuff that will be made and how to recycle it all to stop it all eventually going in landfill.😢

[@Helenmaryjo]

Of course, that's one way to look at it, but equally it can help make parts to fix things to save them going into landfill.... that's what my son in law did for a broken camping table. xx

[@veronicapawson331]

It’s resin

[@Helenmaryjo]

In this machine it's actually thermoplastic. They do use resin in other machines xx
