Beginners Guide To 3D Printers In 2023

[@TheEdgeofTech]

It's been brought to my attention that the audio is in mono in this video and I apologize for that. I usually record in stereo, but did a firmware update on my mics the day before I recorded this one. It seems that it changed a setting and was recording in mono with a backup channel. I have addressed this now and future videos will be back in stereo!

[@dominicbavaro3043]

Do people actually care about this stuff? It sounds fine

[@818marface]

Will you print something for me ;) I have an idea but I can't seem to find anything similar in any shops or ebay

[@Magickmaster3]

@@dominicbavaro3043 If you ever wear headphones/in-ears while watching something in mono, like when you are in public, you'll feel your ears falling off.

Ha!, I literally just reached out and touched the cone on my left speaker to make sure it was on. good to know.

[@williamsheehan1144]

Hi i just read your comment about 3D printing. You said that this video made helped you make a decision to bye one. Has it all worked out or do you regret buying it? I’m asking because I am thinking about getting one and I have never used one. Can you tell me if it was a good idea. 😊

[@Vincy2006]

@@williamsheehan1144 Well, i’m not him/her, but I will say i have not been disappointed with my printer, although printer fails can happen simply change up some settings and you’re all good to go. i’ve printed characters like Luffy, Killer Queen, Yuta Okkotsu and they all look great. so definitely a great investment if you’re not paying too much for a beginner printer

I started dabbling in 3d printing with 3D pens and bought my first 3d printer in 2019. 4 years later the technology has made excellent progress and the features we know are possible back then but hasn't existed yet is finally available today.

[@TheEdgeofTech]

Great story!! I love how fast this industry is moving!

[@Hot18Shot]

Out of curiosity, what would be some examples of that? And where does 3D technology looks to be headed and what improvements do we see it getting?

[@slimjim7411]

IMHO the best starter printer bang for the buck is the Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro. I've had nothing but success with it from the first test print. Setup was easy, it's not blazing fast but for churning out entire tables worth of wargaming terrain cheap it saves buckets of money. I am using Lychee slicer and it's been easy as pie, and isn't a printer that needs a bunch of upgrades. Self levelling, offset was super easy to set, direct drive filament feeder that is easy to load. As someone who wanted to print more than fiddle around with the printer it's been a good purchase.

Jim, amazing intro for a new hobbyist in under 7 minutes. My Bambux1 Carbon and P1P are my 9th and 10th printers, wish I had one of these as my first. Bambu Studio works well for slicing and sending the files directly to the printer, and the printers just work. Your videos convinced me to add them to my collection and glad I did. Thanks for your videos and reviews

[@TheEdgeofTech]

Thanks David! I am glad you are enjoying them! I can't wait to see what kind of awesome things you print with them!!! Thanks for watching!

[@ShyneflowLC]

Do you honestly recommend an x1c as a first printer? I've been debating it for mine and I hear conflicting info... I hear that I'll be behind if something goes wrong as I'll know nothing on where to troubleshoot or fix... Ugh

[@woodwaker1]

@@ShyneflowLC I do recommend it, with some cravats. One that you have the money to do it, as you know it is not inexpensive. Two you really want to get into the hobby. Third, you do a lot of research, which sounds like you are doing. This has been my easiest printer to get going, be careful and follow the setup instructions. I would suggest to get the printer tested before trying the AMS if you get both.

[@ShyneflowLC]

@@woodwaker1 I was eyeballing the combo with the AMS for sure. So you're saying you'd get setup and run without it first before testing out multi filaments ?

The printing is the easy part. Most every item I've felt 3D printing might work for would have to mate up with an uneven surface of compound, irregular curves and angles. I've been searching the web for info on how to design parts to fit things that aren't flat without success.
