Would you be willing to make a video showing your process from order start to order finish?

[@glennbrian3d]

Yes Casey this is on the list thank you so much for the suggestion!

[@ClaudiaCordic]

Great information, thank you,

[@glennbrian3d]

Absolutely, Glad it was helpful!

Love your videos, I had a question... I purchased 5x5 boxes after this video but... standard shipping labels don't fit on those >_< and some carriers won't accept a box that isn't like 6" on at least one dimension. How are you dealing with that? Or are you putting boxes in bags? Appreciate your insight!

[@barbra429]

Did you ever get an answer?

[@amandajohnson6335]

What 3 size bubble mailers are you using?

[@cluna92377]

Do you have a link for your scale and what labels you use for your label printer?

[@glennbrian3d]

amzn.to/3TzJRno this is the scale and check out my free labels for label printer video, its worth it!

I was using bubble mailers. Until one day a customer messaged that the parts I had sent where all melted and smashed down. so now I only ship in small boxes. I had wrapped the 3d printed parts in bubble wrap and then in bubble mailer. USPS put more packages on top and it was in summer time. and somewhere the package was exposed to a good amount of heat. so the parts got soft and smashed down. something to keep in mind during summer time.

I live in Connecticut so I don't see much of a problem here with that stuff, but boxes make it much more expensive overall

Great Video! Love this channel. On average, how long do you spend each day on the business? I want to start selling on etsy but im still in school and I want to see how time intensive this business is.

[@glennbrian3d]

Right now I only spend about 30 minutes a day since my other business is keeping me busy and I have a daughter on the way so this is taking the back burner unfortunately but once it's up and running it doesn't take too much time

Hey Glen, Great videos. I’m just starting out and have been practicing with my printer for a few weeks now working the bugs out of my Ender 3. I do not have a label machine. So it sounds like I’ll be making a lot of trips to usps. I’ve watched your other video on thingiverse licensing. Any other tips or advice on what my first steps should be?

[@RolledIceCream]

Hi can you make video about how do you use marmalead for seo?

[@glennbrian3d]

Yes this is definitely on the list thank you so much for the suggestion!

[@AQUARIUMFREAK123]

what is the largest size flat rate box ? do they make a flat rate box that could fit the size of a common 10 gallon fish tank ?

[@glennbrian3d]

That's pretty big, it depends on dimension and weight

[@Ghxzt2161]

I believe usps also does free shipping items and I think 1st class boxes is an option.

[@glennbrian3d]

For me it's been more expensive of an option to try to go that route

[@riftis2210]

Hi, I like the idea of starting an online business 3D printing and selling things online, but I'm a bit cautious cause I really just wanna print and sell stuff, I'm not interested in doing social media or making a youtube channel like you've done here. Will my business fail if I just print and try to sell stuff?

[@glennbrian3d]

Hi Riftis, I can't guarantee you'll succeed but it's not a hard business, And one you can do just by yourself without any employees, me having KZbin channel is just to help you guys doesn't have any to do with your business itself you don't need a KZbin channel this sell 3D prints online

[@noldaems760]

what is the name of your Etsy shop

[@glennbrian3d]

Hey, thanks for asking! I dont reveal it anymore since 40k people going to it and not buying anything really messes up the stats lol

[@chrishead4123]

Uline has been the cheapest I've found.

[@glennbrian3d]

I found that ulines shipping canceled out any savings and made it very expensive for me

[@fuzedlabs]

Don't forget PirateShip -- I use them and they're great, especially for international orders. I love how they put all the customs info right on the 4x6 sticker label for you.

[@glennbrian3d]

Yes pirate ship and other shipping companies deserve their own video!
