Petition to make this a series !

@@JayC4.00 what should be next? Leave your comments here

[@JayC4.00]

@@DingDongDrift definitely the process of scanning an printing parts, wether it be oem interior vents or panels, or stuff like the shifter cover you did for prizzamikes 240zx, just a thought tho haha

[@Loki-Grandmaster]

Scanning Software What software to use for modeling Filaments Where to learn to 3d modeling. Everything. Lol

[@DingDongDrift]

@@Loki-Grandmaster ight lol, scanning is next cz i got something really special!

[@Loki-Grandmaster]

@@DingDongDrift ay that's good to hear !

[@jessekeasler4278]

I’m not really big into 3D modeling but the way you explain things makes me enjoy learning stuff about it. Thanks for this video.

[@TCreatorO]

Yes! We got the spoilers for the 3D printed rearend, thats the last piece of the puzzle this SC needs to be completely unique, very inspiring build bro, keep up the amazing work!

[@Notjobincome]

bro do you have a video showint the tour of your car? I cant find it

[@theofficialstig]

I've been having trouble with the Scanning to 3d modelling work flow (designing parts around the car) because STL files are a pain to work with in fusion 360 if you could make a video on that it would be great

What is the program to model

Love it when u get nerdy and jump on the software

Been working on a massive kit for the Mx5 NB to make for composites production the last 2 years (hint its not just a hardtop or widebody). As I see more and more videos covering printed body kits I feel the pressure. If I take another year or 2 to develop will I be too late?

[@DingDongDrift]

@@Genjure never too late

[@TrillMurray]

I say keep at it. I had plans to make a dash piece to hold my airlift controller with eyeball vents that articulate for a couple years before I even learned any cad software. It’s finally done and I’m glad I followed through

[@TrillMurray]

Thanks for sharing! I’m always extremely impressed, especially the big exterior stuff. If the body kit ever takes damage, I hope you decide to share it. I’m very interested in the durability since I’ve never seen this done.

[@DingDongDrift]

@@TrillMurray I'll share everything, I'm not the "everything is perfect" type of KZbinr

[@TrillMurray]

@@DingDongDrift I didn’t think so. The body kit looks incredible. I would have thought that printing a seamless bumper is only possible in theory

[@DingDongDrift]

@@TrillMurray well it's not printed seamlessly, did you watch the video of me building it?

[@TrillMurray]

@@DingDongDrift I did. I have the same printer. What I meant is that it looks seamless. I would never guess that it’s printed by looking at it. I would imagine a segmented petg bumper to look more like it’s built of legos

[@DingDongDrift]

@@TrillMurray oh yeah, that's the solid week of sanding for ya lol

[@RigoGonzalez-ds6sk]

Can you help me 3d print a wide body on a lexus is??

[@Gandar-px7cs]

You make better tutorials for modeling than most dedicated modeling channels. I'm looking to start my own channel working on my 1997 Miata and I want to print my own parts for it. Any recommendations for classes or books to learn a modeling software? I already know fusion 360 and solidworks but I'm looking to learn a good mesh software like blender.

[@DingDongDrift]

@@Gandar-px7cs i went to college for this stuff so i never really watched tutorials. Anything i needed to learn that i didn't know was just a quick Google search away so i never like watched tutorial channels you know? The best way to learn for me is to start modeling what you want and when you hit a block, Google the solution. Watching tutorials to me is just a huge flood of information that i just forget later on.

[@LowLifeAccord]

I saw a video where you talked about "live surfaces" and I was interested in finding out more. Nice tool for Maya but I haven't found anything like it for Max. Fusion has a similar feature, but I prefer modeling in Max when possible. Very cool video! Nice to see people showing others how we do it! Haha I saw you boolean!! Cheater.. haha bro I use that tool all the time instead of taking the time to model out surface faces. Quick fan question! - Q: How do figure out thread pattern and type?

[@DingDongDrift]

@@LowLifeAccord hey we're not making optimized video games here, booleans are fine! What do you mean how to figure out thread?

[@LowLifeAccord]

@@DingDongDrift I mean different threads have a different pitch. Are you just examining the thread type by eye? Measuring threads?

[@DingDongDrift]

@@LowLifeAccord i don't model threads, I'm pretty sure i mentioned it in the video

[@LowLifeAccord]

@@DingDongDrift my bad must have missed it

Ola .gostava de fazer um carro em tamanho real em 3d , so a carroçaria.e possivel ? porquê o progama k tenho nao consigo fatiar as pecas ,?bom trabalho

[@DingDongDrift]

Go check out my earlier videos, i literally did that

[@miguelmarinho6336]

@@DingDongDrift obrigado,quando pus o carro já a escala real no programa da crealety ele nem cabe na plataforma,fica fora de dimensões no monitor hihih.eu como não percebo não vai ser fácil hihih

[@DingDongDrift]

You can't use creality, it's not a design program

[@miguelmarinho6336]

@@DingDongDrift ok obrigado,tenho que arranjar alguém que consiga fatiar esse modelo . obrigado pelo tempo e atenção que tás a ter comigo.

No worries, thank you for watching

[@theajtruth]

Misleading title, could've just said you designed 3d models. 😂 I thought you were going to go into depth about how you make your bumpers vs others

[@DingDongDrift]

I will if this video does well and people are interested in it. I also did an entire live stream where i started the widebody design.

[@BlackBeard_ET]

That’s what I’m interested in. I’m a noob in the 3d game but I want to build a one off FD
