3D design files and where to buy one, is discussed in *part 2*! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gX6yZ2p5bp2Yr8U

[@matheusfpilar]

This ideia is really cool. very creative.

[@MrGeovaniaco]

personally i would like to buy that thing, i also hate laptops and recently bougth a mini mac. Great work

[@hassassa797]

i got the mac mini and i have to take it around in a huge box to use it anywhere personally would but it which ipad is it tho?

[@SereneKaos]

Forget the mac, the visual story telling and motivated edits are amazing in this video. First time here and that’s all my eyes could focus on. The subtle masking of the mac were class. Keep grinding!

[@CarlAustinGregory]

Exactly. I was like totally blown away by the shooting and editing.

[@SmoothKevT]

💯! The transitions and storytelling were stellar! I think the design was like the cherry on top…awesome video

[@ivyedme]

And I couldn’t agree more. I didn’t skip any part at all too.

[@lovejaklyn6672]

Same. I was more focused on how the video was edited. How can this channel only have 133k subscribers!? It deserves more!

[@craaaank1]

Yes! I felt the same! The whole video how it was made and also the system.

I gotta tr this. I just got my iPad mini and I’ve been looking for a solid replacement to my laptop, probably not practical but i love it. And the energy of the whole video and how your dad helped was so wholesome.

[@KeithBarnesLife]

This is the first of your videos that I’ve stumbled upon and I have to say, I love everything you put into this. The quality of production, smooth edits, transitions, music - and of course the general idea - were all absolutely incredible. I’m off to go find another of your vids. +1 subscriber!

3:03 - you know when this beat drops, it’s 3D printer time baby

[@nicoxjan]

I edited this song over the Portals scene in Avengers Endgame and my goosebumps got even bigger.

[@MM-ds7eu]

This is fantastic. What an age we are living in, we can basically make anything. All we need is, to unleash creativity and constantly keep learning new skills, such as 3D printing.

[@ZackHab]

And money but yeah it is incredible

[@iVilliain]

Bro your storytelling is incredible. Very well shot and done, let alone the concept and actual creation of the project itself!

[@yasouijasi]

this is so iconic omg

[@noapoleon_]

This video is a masterpiece I did not even notice it was 7 whole minutes!! Felt like 3 minutes max. I went up so quickly and I was captivated by the camera movements and transitions!

[@koversz]

I absolutely love the straight-to-the-point storytelling and entertaining yet effective editing you did

[@99prxp]

came here to say this. his no nonsense editing paired with straight forward info is refreshing on this platform

[@bonuch]

Mate, I only just discovered you as I'm new to the 3D print world and have been surfing the 'tube for tutorials. Your channel is amazing and you are so clever. Love your innovative content. Kudos to you

[@barbeychris2636]

I had a 10th gen iPad kzbin.infoUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA . Felt it getting pretty slow at times even after doing a reset. So I am using that as a tablet for my 5 year old son and got this 9th gen version. MUCH faster, a little slimmer, smaller bezels, all around a leap forward. Plus, for the price that’s about $130-$150 cheaper than a current new model this is a nice deal. I look forward to the M-series CPUs coming into iPads which will really help future proof these tablets better but these latest CPUs are pretty strong and should do better to last several years with no compromises.

[@dutchyoung]

This has to be some of the best filmmaking I’ve seen in a tech video, keep up the good work!

[@bartekcieslik]

Yeah, it's so good! Have you seen the intro in this one? kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZe5d2B7mJmhl7M

[@zebcode]

Design process is not boring, it's really useful. I'm a software developer but the process is the same. Please make more videos like this and go further into the design process! I'm so glad I just discovered your channel. I love the way you speed things up but still show exactly how to put things together without skipping anything important. That was really impressive! All in just 7mins and 12 seconds. Honestly, I'm blown away by how engaging this was at the same time as being informative!

[@stdbz]

you are an inspiration. never stop creating and re inventing the way we do stuff. our mind is the limit. trying and testing + fun is a great way to create new stuff and discover new ways to do something. so cool!

[@karagrace5248]

not surprised how your channel grew so much in such a short time, your content is fire man keep it up!

[@JrnieJade]

I’m going to need a few days to process how incredible this was. This definitely sparked new ideas and a rebirth of excitement for the 3d printer I built a few years ago. Absolutely incredible stuff! You’re extremely talented and gained a new supporter ❤️ Look forward to seeing more content!

[@jordanmorrison4675]

Keep the design processes coming along with all the creation, mesmerizing editing and wonderful story telling!! I don’t even build, create or have anything remotely 3D printing related but watching your videos are crazily inspiring. Amazing work. Keep it up

[@MrLonerist]

Absolutely want more behind the scenes. It gives me inspiration on how else to create.

I am astounded by the fact that you are skillful in numerous things, such as videography, editing, envisioning, 3D modeling, drawing, assembling, and so on. You are certainly one of a kind.

[@Charlielx]

I legitimately think you make some of the best edited and produced videos on youtube, great job!

[@Vijoodruid]

Straight to the point and very interesting, most people provide solutions, you just created it yourself. I hate laptops myself and was looking for easy portability with a Mac Mini as they are not so expensive. Cheers.

[@Neo-mp3ej]

I liked the “Design process stuff” it’s really interesting to see how things are made.

[@RodneyBerry]

+1! :) The 'visual vomit' with your commentary is really great and not at all boring. I'd love to see that become a signature part of your thing. Thinking out loud while designing is a great skill to have (even if you dubbed it in after the fact, you are still recreating and illuminating what is pure mystery for many peeps).

[@lizavetameta]

[@jasandper]

Dude…very impressive. To see the process of design from start to finish is incredible content. From brainstorming ideas to a working prototype- even if the end product doesn’t make sense the value here is in the process. Keep it up.

[@qqvrbx]

Brand new sub here. And you earned it. The satisfaction of your videos, from the printing of the housing to the audio, your ideas and more. It’s absolutely stunning. Good job

[@locrobster1746]

Top notch video. Absolute game changer. Also the whole brainstorming aspect in this is motivational! Thanks!

[@BLADYT]

It’s really rare, but… I discovered you with this video, and dropped a follow within the first seconds of the video. Not only the idea was incredible, but your way to talk, to explain, to work, to film, to edit and your imagination, just make your videos incredible. You just deserve wayyy more subs.

This is killer! Love seeing the process (I have an art/design background) so keep doing it if you can!

[@langanma3039]

Thanks for your creativity. I already have an iPad mini 6. I think it looks different from others when we carry it outside. Genius!!

[@artyshefartsy]

I absolutely love watching your design process. It's really inspiring and motivating! It makes you more *human* rather than a distant creator. It reminds us that you still need to brainstorm and go through trial and error before finding what works for you. I think that's something I find discouraging is not seeing creators go through trial and error and just somehow end up with something perfect.

[@thejoithh]

What an underrated channel. This video alone is relatable, intriguing, and keeps you focused the whole time. What an awesome result as well!

[@IshFishGuitar]

Awesome engineering man! This was a joy to watch, wish I had one.

I'm definitely for you showing more design process. It was not at all boring in this video and it's really informative to see your process. I'd never thought of drawing on a monitor with whiteboard markers. Or maybe I have, but it felt wrong to me, so I didn't. Anyway, keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing your next project.

The ability to work with the Apple Pencil is awesome!! It alone makes the build worth it 😊

[@sewsavvy]

I love this! Exactly what I was looking for (and a bit more)

[@MrKrisleatherman]

The editing and flow on your video is like no other, not a dull moment. During the process portions I was still all in, this video has a cool kids vibe and invites the watcher to be a part of the club, not as a confused outsider. What elese can I say, I've never hit like/subscribe as fast as I did here. Bravo!

[@Stormbrise]

@@vietthanhnguyen1227 actually no, I have a PC laptop, I own a Mac mini already, why would I want to shell out a couple of thousand dollar for a good quality, good storage space laptop (hence not an air but a pro). My line of work requires a pc and software does not nor will ever be developed for a Macintosh. Plus with MS picking up blizzard soon, you may not be getting the games either. I prefer to write on my Mac because it allows me more peace of mind then the known issue bugs with larger documents with he PC version of word, which I am required to use for my thesis where I am. This bug, get beyond so many pages, your images will disappear behind text never to be found but still making the file size larger because well they’re images. Or the sudden disappearance of the entire document that is really difficult to recover with all the coding text that gets entered into if you are lucky enough to find an earlier text file. These issues, confirmed by a former VP of MS, are legacy from word perfect (back in the 90s when MS purchases the company, hostile) conversion to the PC since it was a Macintosh application. They would have to rebuild the software from scratch and they do not want to invest the man hours to do it, when most users writing smaller documents ever encounter this problem, students and researchers writing larger papers with images have suffered. Yes I always backup now, but it gets tedious keeping track of all these files, and Dropbox and other online storage are not so good for history documents as they claim to be.

Beautiful design, the max mini’s base snapping together to secure it in place was more satisfying than expected. It was like a little seatbelt for the babe.
