I don't understand this 3D printing world. People "share" things but actually share things in a very stupid file format, in stl files. That kind of 3D format drops all 3D model attributes, and although 3D programs are able to load it , they can't modify it. They can't even reconstruct the original geometry, because it is not an exact, but an approximated, tesselated geometry format. What you "share" that is not modifiable anymore. Its a simplification of your original 3D model. Your sphere is not sphere anymore but a thing from million triangles. Have you guys ever heard about open source HW or SW or such things. Whats the purpose sharing in an unmodifiable format ? Who invented this idiocy ? Why everybody follows this habit without thinking and criticism ? There are many "exact" 3D formats to share 3D models, STL is one of the worst of them. Its not your fault Clough you just follow the others and that stupid thingverse site. You all should share real 3D models like .iges or .step, and sharing the printable .stl is only secondary or optional.
@Clough425 жыл бұрын
No disagreement here. STL is fine for distribution of a final product, but it's a mess if you want to try to modify the parts. It's especially messy, since so many tools produce files with incorrect normal vectors or broken surfaces.

Open source things could develop, people could modify it, fix it, add new functions to it, and then reupload it. The products could be developing. What can I do with an .stl file ? I can print it then I like it or not, that is what I got.
@JohnDoe-rl9pp5 жыл бұрын
It's a historical oddity, like so much of manufacturing. PCB making still uses gerber files, even though they're a terrible format for all the reasons you've listed for STLs. They persist because every piece of software can make them, and every manufacturer can read them. The worst of the bugs have been smoothed out, so things mostly get built correctly. New formats never get enough traction to displace them, because no new features are really required at the moment. Inertia. It's an amazing thing.
@telelaci25 жыл бұрын
@@JohnDoe-rl9pp Hi John, you misunderstand me. The .stl as the manufacturing format: ok, no one cares, it can do the job. (at least these days, yet) I was talking about the 3D sharing format. This site is ok: grabcad.com/ , because you can convert/edit/fix the models before 3D printing or milling, or whatever manufacturing. But this one is crap: www.thingiverse.com/ , because many people can't use the shared files, they would need a tiny little bit different size or shape. Or they just want to fix an error, or they just want to improve it somehow. But the .stl is unmodifiable. Good for printing though, but crap for sharing.

PETG can be a little tricky. I've used both Hatchbox and eSun PETG. This roll is Hatchbox. I'm printing .2mm layers at 255c with a E3Dv6 hot end and .4mm nozzle. I print on glass with Garnier Fructis Extreme Hold #5 hair spray (amzn.to/2FtNQu1). I start with the bed at 90C and drop to 80C after the first layer. I also set the first layer height to 120% to avoid balling up and making a mess and I run it slower (3000mm/min). A cooling fan is important if you're printing any bridges or small features in the upper layers to make sure the print solidifies and you don't get the melty-sand-castle look.
@underourrock5 жыл бұрын
In addition to what Clough42 expertly posted, I'd like to empahsize that PETG likes to be printed slower (yeah he said that but a lot of people ignore that about PETG) BUT you should use decently quick travel speeds. Printing speeds can be 30 to 50 mm per second, but travel speeds should be 70 to 100 mm/s. (It varies because if there is a lot of wobble in your 3d printer, you want to slow down the travels so they aren't so rough... my 3d printer is very rigid so I don't worry about it too much.) Also use retraction. 1 or 2mm of retraction at 10mm/s (I've read some people use even slower speed) can help a lot too. So the pressure is taken off of the filament before it rapids away from the part... the two effects combine and you get a lot less strings. PETG can be printed at a VERY wide range of temperatures. On my printer I can print from 230 to 250 degrees. I get more stringing at some temperatures than others...and on my printer, there is a range in the middle I need to avoid where it strings worse than cooler or hotter. Test a range of temperatures with a lot of movement between pieces...in fact there are 3d objects you can get that are designed to showoff stringiness and you can vary the model by printing it at different temperatures at different layers.

If you drill the hole sizes just undersized, your pins will more or less fuse the holders together. Just a thought. :)

I created BOTH models in the XY Plane and when I bring them together, it rotates the tool by 90 Degrees when I attempt to use the Joint Command. I manually rotate the object being put into the "blank", but then it seems that I can't center the thing into blank without manually doing everything. F360 can be so bloody frustrating sometimes...OK A LOT of the time.

That's going to be driven by the orientation of the joint origin you select. Make sure you're selecting both origins on the bottom, or both on the side. If you have one on the bottom and one on the side, it'll do exactly what you're seeing, because it thinks that's what you're asking it to do.

@@Clough42 Could you maybe do a dedicated video on running us through your 3D printer and the mods you did to it? Love your channel mate, keep it up 😉🔥

I just wish I could afford all that kind of stuff for myself. :P

Yeah, machines and tooling can be expensive. I started small and accumulated over a long period of time.

Like he said man. I thought the same shit 5 years ago... I never thought id have all the tools i have today. Just build little by little and be greatful for what you do have. 👍

leave some inserts in the bottom or sides and little neodymium magnets. Or on the front and lock them to the drawer face.

Thank you for explaining the process very well. As a new cad user I struggle with what approach to use to make parts like you just demonstrated. Now I actually think I can tackle a bit on my own.

Why didn't print both parts at the same time?
@Clough422 жыл бұрын
Depending on the part geometry, a smaller/shorter print reduces opportunities for warping, and allows you to keep the part on the most even part of the heated bed. With materials like PETG, you can often avoid excessive stringing by printing parts one at a time. Whether this is necessary and/or helpful depends a lot on the printer.

This is only the second video I have seen of yours, but I would say that my understanding of Fusion 360 has improved by a couple of hundred percent. Thanks for your work!
