Strongest 3D Prints? Resin Nylon

[@HoffmanTactical]

I want to build a testing machine just like that! I think impact testing is more important that tensile testing.

[@MorlockEngineering]

The plans are all on github(STEP and Fusion360) along with the python code. Materials are all under 100 dollars.

[@adammichaeld]

I was actually researching a good resin to print lowers myself lol. I'm an engineer myself so I really see the effort and value in this. You earned a subscriber.

[@imperialmarquesilver-7778]

Now we know. I was using syratech tenacious but colored me impressed with this one. JESUS lol

[@OriginaldoBo]

How does the phrozen do after being exposed to the sun?

[@mightymoaman2485]

Man, your channel is a gem. A new favorite of mine!

[@eddynovoa7705]

i see hoffman tactical is in the comments, you guys are doing a great job keep up the development we all need Kevlar like resin

[@HoffmanTactical]

Have you noticed any difference in performance with different layer orientations? Or is that not a thing with resin printers.

[@MorlockEngineering]

Nope. There are no layers really. If the technology continues to improve, we will see monolithic one-molecule printing. That should approach the strength of kevlar or UHMWPE.

[@kilgoretrout4461]

Hey @HoffmanTactical , can you please relay your print settings to me? And what printer you used? I have some nylon green I’m just trying to get my settings dialed in correctly without wasting too Much of it. Your help is way way appreciated and thanks so much for being such an important part of the community. Much love ! Keep up the good work !

[@JakeWitmer]

​@@MorlockEngineeringcan you use infill materials for next-gen composite properties? I saw a foreign guy from Scandinavia try it out, but his choices of infill were...grossly sub-optimal

[@swolebro]

Nice benchy. You've clearly seen the other guy's work on ECM then. I think it could eventually be used for making parts like hammers too, not the kind you used for testing here. I hope to explore that more later this year. (Busy moving, at the moment, with very limited access to my tools.)

[@aiaiaiuiuiui5252]

Which other guy's work?

[@mrgoob76]

now in the case of that nylon reason, i would really like to see someone print miniatures out of it to see how it holds with detail because IF its super detailed.... and not too much a price difference... you would have minis that would pretty much survive anything

[@knickly]

It would be helpful - as a benchmark - to run an FDM sample through your test.

[@kurtryankoch7356]

This is the type of info I've been hunting for epic video lads

[@justhereforthalolz]

Have you tested any of those lowers in a live fire test? I have always wanted to try resin for a lower but due to the brittleness, always decided against it. It's not cool when a lower just spontaneously explodes lol. But if this nylon stuff bends instead of explodes, that could make it viable to print a lower with a resin printer and get really nice looking lowers, smooth surfaces, etc. Especially with lowers designed for 3d printing like hoffman tactical's stuff. I have both a huge resin printer and very large FDM printers. All my 2A and/or functional printing is done on FDM and everything else is done via resin. I just love the resolution that the resin printers can achieve vs FDM. So handguards and decorative stuff, always done on resin, hands down, not even a close competition. If it could also print functionally.... duuude haha that would rule :D

[@cavinrauch]

Super interesting that you mention acrylic when talking about strength. The first thing I noticed was the blueish shine a thin layer of this resin has and it reminded my of some clear acrylic.

[@icebluscorpion]

Yes😃! Please do more about that, I'm grateful to have found your channel. I will definitely buy the nylon resin because my prints are mostly on the technic heavy side of the printing spectrum where functionality, safety, precision and versatility are higher rated than the pretty looking. Also do more of the ECM as well, I need to make titanium parts and I would want to learn more about ECM titanium. I mean, what feeds and speeds, flow, voltage, etc. are required?🤔 Keep it up, pal! You are making awesome things there👍

[@lost4468yt]

You should have done a much thicker test piece as well. That would have made the results much clearer.

[@KnuXx28]

finding a perfect ratio between this nylon and a well proven abs like resin would be the best current go to for printed recievers.

[@MRMIKE276]

Dude you transformed from a super nerd to a normal looking dude at the end.

[@butcherbaylee]

Did you ever do test fires with the lower receiver? Or any more attempt to break it

[@matthewwiemken7293]

lol

[@reflectadditive7102]

Nice to see Impact test

[@Mallampati4]

I'm digging this channel

[@SaltyMaverick]

Damn, I really underestimated the strength of nylon. So do you think this would be suitable for use in building an actual working firearm? I was thinking that cerakote could also solve the transparency problem, while also maybe adding a little extra protection to it.

[@andrewlozinak273]

Have you ever tested the lower actually firing it ?Do you think it would hold up to firing or do you think it would work on a frame? I know you said the phrozen tough nylon green resin was touger than the elegoo grey right?

[@andrewlozinak273]

Also if you could make some custom resins I think that would be a big hit on your channel

[@FullModernAlchemist]

Brilliant work man! Great video and I’m really looking forward to the next ones. You’re doing such cool stuff. 🥰

[@kaczorefx]

Is the nylon resin stiff after curing? Does it resemble lastic or more like rubber? I'm not talking about flexibility but the strength with which it holds it's shape. If I print a box with it, will it hold the boxy shape or will it deform like rubber?

[@biggboysouth]

How many lowers can you print from 1KG of the green nylon resin?

[@JakeWitmer]

How many vests, w/silk or continuous carbon fiber infill? HARP printing?

[@rjakiel73]

How many lowers can you print from a single 1kg bottle of resin?

[@CdoGtheGreat]

Ok I'm buying that nylon res

[@erichauss7973]

did you design that lower your self? if not where did you find it? I would like to replicate these tests.

[@BEdmonson85]

Do you have print settings for mono screen printers? I just got a bottle in the mail and I'm excited too get printing. I'm going to start out with my Siraya Blu settings and go from there I suppose. Although, I dyed the resin black, so I'm sure I'll have to up the exposure a bit.

[@Lunatech04]

Wjat 3d printer did yall use to print the nylon with?

[@JakeWitmer]

He said elegoo

[@osmanpasha_diy]

Can you say anything about surface toughness and friction? Would gears made of that Nylon-like resin be viable?

[@MorlockEngineering]

Yes, they would be viable. Surface quality is excellent and uniform

[@deankovalsky1179]

how do you think the nylon-like resin would preform in case of constant sliding abrasion being used as a pen-nib?

[@ieenz]

Great video guys!

[@protostar8]

I know I'm late to the game on this, but how does it hold up for balljoints? Does it dust really bad or does it work better than M58 ABS-Like resin that has basically no dusting? (Dusting being when the ball grinds against the inside of the joint the resin grinds away instead of glides over itself resulting in quickly deteriorating joints)

[@freedom_seed5.45x39]

Can the phrozen nylon be used in a halot one plus? If so what's the process/ settings?

[@pabloandres4339]

You are a genius. it is impresive whta you build

[@DJacKnifeAlpha]

Kevlar resin? That sounds insane..

[@timgoodliffe]

what printer did you run this on?

[@-charles-d.9559]

Nice haircut bro. Where can i buy the bowl?

[@fluffypinkpandas]

lmao

[@printsomething5093]

After looking at the Safety Data sheet for this and the Siraya Tech Tenacious they could be very similar, could you all do a test of this against each other

[@fluffypinkpandas]

try mixing in a little bit of graphene powder with the nylon resin

[@JohnWick-dn6ty]

Please share the printing setting for nylon.

[@phonemail1367]

Does it beat the siraya blu?

[@ghost101049]

I'm interested about this as well.

[@ThePowerknoedel]

I would be very interested if you make your own resin! I've been thinking about making my own resin but i dont have the knowledge and time to do so..

[@k.s.8959]

Ok now i'm wondering which one withstands temperature better :)

[@maxi123ism]

Make some graphitic carbon nitride and mix it in with the resin if you can. Might make the resin stronger

[@MorlockEngineering]

I looked into that. It does not seem hard to make from urea

[@RCairplanefy]

what happened with the metal 3d printer

[@SinanAkkoyun]

myth has the confirmness

[@yui907]

You need a better mic. Still fucking sick though, loved it. Keep it up guys.

[@fdxcb]

Kevlar resin, what? Hahaha, sign me up man

[@Sprinthurdles]

Thank you

[@buzzsaw94]

Can you do nylon like testing

[@6099Jorge]

Hello how can i make my own?

[@starfishprime2864]

Can these resins be cast into molds?

[@thejoetandy]

Yes, but they need to be UV cured, only poured in layers.

[@alexm4903]

Wow!! Fantastic...

[@vibrationofmyfrequency]

Прикольно 👍

[@brokenbullets5276]

Nice

[@exodus030]

Lol eleegoo

[@hakowy]

IT looks like you dont know how to properly use a hammer...

[@ivanlourens2682]

Are you wearing a wig?
