I have been 3d printing for over four years and have never printed a benchy. Ninety % of everything I print is a repair part, a tool , replacement item, or equipment I want or need. 3d printing has saved me hundreds of dollars in tools and less frustration in finding a solution to a problem. Great video by the way.

[@Ale-bj7nd]

Same! And honestly I don't understand why people buy a printer and then say "what do I print now?". I mean, it's like buying a car without really having to go anywhere.

[@kylehanneman6438]

I just started a month ago. I haven't printed a benchy yet. I wanna see how long I can go. Idk why, but the thought of a benchy makes me mad lol. It's literally the first thing everyone prints when they get a printer. But I get it. It's a tester.

[@Dyl_Cam]

Yea I always thought it was quicker to perfect a small print rather than wait forever for a benchy.

[@Walvering.]

If you’ve never printed a benchy then you’re not a real 3D printer king. 💁

[@TheOneAndOnlyTed]

Been printing about 6 years and only just printed my first benchy last week. I wouldn't have bothered normally, but a 14 min benchy seemed too good to pass up.

[@CaitlinJBall]

Currently living in Korea where they have to separate their compost in a special red bag. Here, most people keep it in the freezer so that it doesn't make the house smell, but it would be nice to have a bin to keep in the freezer like that, so there isn't just a bag floating around. Now I've got to figure out which plastic will hold up best in the freezer. 🤣Thank you for this video. I'm trying to talk my husband into getting a large format printer, this was super useful. Helped him remember how much money we saved when the shelf in our closet fell and we printed off new anchors for it. Other useful prints I've found (just to help the cause): Spice racks, tea dispenser, coffee pod dispensers, rulers and protractors for kids when school starts, mounts for eyeglasses, kitchen aid organizers, soap dishes, and lithophane gifts.

[@IyseHexxo-br8uo]

My S/O has actually liked 2 things I printed for her. One was a wicker basket style pen holder for her desk at work. I also printed new shower curtain holders since ours were not very good or nice looking. I also noticed she really likes the marble white filament a lot. I made a corner Apple TV holder and that was the first time she even raised her eyebrows at any print I did. I also made a remote holder that goes on the bed so that we don’t lose the remotes which happens almost daily before I had the holders.

I think the most important thing is to stop searching for models, and start MAKING models. Other people's designs are great for inspiration, but the real power of a 3D printer is producing things which no one has ever made before, things which suit extremely specific needs.

[@thenextlayer]

I do agree, THOUGH, I think there's no cooler feeling than having an idea, and deciding to search it on Printables first, and realizing omg, someone already made a solution and gave it away for free... I've been SO surprised, sometimes the most esoteric things are already on there

I actually suggested shelf supports to my wife yesterday but she does not want plastic on her new kitchen walls. We will see how those silly floating shelf supports hold up. I also have been waiting years to get a 3d printer to finally fix the kitchen trash can so the peddle will work again. That can cost almost $100! One of the first things I printed was a door stopper that fits on the hinge pin of the pantry door as it was bumping the new oven's knobs and turning the on stove whenever you opened the door. Even though the hardware store is only 2mins down the road it was a holiday weekend and company was coming so it was faster to print something I also just got an overpriced Cricut for my wife and I ended up making all the labels for the Christmas decorations. This video is so on point.

[@ManuelBarner]

Lol,the kitchen trash can Paddle was one of the first things i repaired when i got my 3D printer. Those things are meant to break - with only 50gr of plastics it could have lived forever, but the manufacturers decide to make those things flimsy..

[@DragonCMNDR]

And with good finishing work, plastic parts need not look like plastic! A good coat of primer, and some of the cool rustic-looking metal paints (or rub-n-buff) and you can have an awesome custom component that would be a pain to cast in metal yourself, but looks nearly indistinguishable from the "real"-metal thing sitting next to it. I say "real" metal because half the time it's just a cheap nickel alloy plated with a metal it's supposed to look like (IE copper, bronze, chrome, etc.) I love the Rustolem aged-metal spray paints.

[@cavemandanwilder5597]

If you’re gonna make functional parts using vase mode, try a 1mm nozzle for maximum wall thickness and therefore much better strength/durability.

[@MrBertstare]

[@glittalogik]

Definitely another one of these focusing on tool storage please! One little bit of constructive criticism (and this is purely my own personal opinion) - I'd prefer a shift (maybe 10-30% more) toward dynamic b-roll footage of whatever you're talking about, and/or making more use of your standing-in-front-of-the-camera time to physically show us stuff. Everything you're saying is relevant and interesting, and there's nothing wrong with your face (or hair!), it's just about whether the visuals are adding value to the content of any given segment. As a point of reference, I think you nailed the balance in your previous video about the camera mount :) For a new channel you're doing great! Keep it up and I reckon it's only a matter of time before your subscriber count starts soaring.

[@thenextlayer]

This is fantastic feedback, THANK YOU! I’m coming from the education space where I teach on camera, but you’re right! More B roll, less face! Thank goodness I have the Jib now to make that easier (most of this was recorded before it was done)

[@WatchesTrainsAndRockets]

That really did not bother me much but that may be just me. I tend to multitask a lot and run videos in the background. As the verbal descriptions were quite good, I did not feel that I was missing anything by not watching the video the whole time. When there were things presented that I wished to see, I just switched to the video tab and backed up a bit to watch for the details. I very much appreciate the chapter markings. They make it really convenient to find specific sections that I would like to study more closely.

A trashcan was one of my first functional prints with my first printer! I was sharing an office with a guy who just left the wrappers from his tea bags on top of the water cooler every day! So I maxed out the print volume on my little tronxy X1 and printed a tiny 3 litre trash can.

I've found printed bearings can actually be super useful in the right applications. They don't tend to spin as freely as metal ones, which is a property you might want sometimes. Obviously they won't hold up to high RPMs, but for low speeds, they might just be perfect. Spool holders, for example, you might not want to spin too freely and unravel your filament..

[@soundologe]

I cant agree more on that. I swapped metal bearings for printed ones on my spool holders.

No matter how neat I try to keep them, every time I open their drawer, they are messed up (thanks again Wifey). Going to make some dividers so only the right batteries go in the right spot!!! What DEMON would put an 18V battery next to a 36V one, so there is no room left??? :)

FINALLY the first video that is not like: "Here are 20 generic practical things you can print" - and then lists them. Even being from great channels, those videos always felt like they have been missing something, they left me feeling a bit empty inside and I was never truly satisfied after watching those. Now I finally figured out why. They just told you to copy something. This video instead inspires you to think about your own situation in your home and stimulates your creativity. Even while watching this videos and looking around in my room I had 3 ideas what to 3D print to improve my situation. Truly awesome suggestions/stimuli, and I have finally found that first and only "useful 3D prints" video that actually did something for me personally. Consider me impr...subscribed :) The one thing that I never thought about printing before is like you said: heavy-duty mechanical stuff. I plan to make a swivel arm mainly from aluminum extrusions to hold my 48" TV so I can swing it from my desk (use as a monitor) to in front of my sofa. I was long agonizing about what to use as a hinge and how to mount it to the wall. Door hinges maybe? This video made me think about that the hinges might not be impossible to make out of 3D prints and some axial bearings.

[@thenextlayer]

High praise!! Thank you!!

[@williamreinhard]

My wife was most impressed by two things that I've printed. The first was a replacement part for a rotating food tray that we borrowed from a friend and broke while assembling. Scored huge points for being able to fix it before returning. Second print that impressed her was a mount for a Google Home that hides the cord and gets it up off the kitchen counter. We have a lot of little potted plants that could use some nicer pots. Definitely need to make some nice models and get our plants looking nicer. She is still skeptical that 3d prints can actually look like something other than cheap plastic.

[@jrdnhsnbrg]

Can confirm, the repkord system is truly awesome. I personally am quite tall so I hung it right up next to the ceiling, high enough that it is totally out of the way but I can still easily reach it all. (4) 10 foot sticks of 1/2" EMT ran me like $30, plus 6 wall cleats and 6 brackets. The perfectly sorted by material and color rainbow of filament is so satisfying.

The first useful item that I printed was an electric toothbrush holder that I downloaded from Thingiverse. It gave us a stable stand in whch to place the toothbrushes so that they are no longer laying down of the vanity top or setting unsteadily in paper cups or other improvised holders. My wife loves it and keeps talking about how wonderful she thinks that it is. A tool that I printed was a set of feeler gauges so that I could measure tight spaces like slots for mounting tabs. While they are probably not as dimensionally accurate as a set of machined metal gauges, they have the advantage of giving the dimensions needed for the as-printed part.

One useful thing I printed (apart from Gridfinity boxes) was a toilet seat hinge. If I didn’t print it I’d have to replace the whole toilet seat, which would cost some good money I could buy filament and generate a lot of plastic waste from the old toilet seat. Printed the hinge in PETG and it’s still strong after one and a half year. Managed to find a hinge that actually fitted my toilet seat. Greetings from Brazil!

The handle and frame for our freezer which broke about 8 years ago and I couldn't get a replacement, so I printed it. At this points my fridge, freezer, cars and motorcycles, not to mention dressers and many other indoor and outdoor things are partially printed parts since they have broken and either I couldn't get parts or they wanted me to buy a whole $300 assembly instead of the 30 cent part that was actually broken.

I do not have one but am going to get one within the next week and this just really made me think about what all I am going to make. I subscribed for the sheer humor alone but really appreciate the deep dive into the ways to help your everyday life

Woa, bought a 3D printer now. I guess I will print most of it.

Welcome and enjoy

[@alexanime8877]

Thanks for opening my mind. I love your ideas 🤯

[@GlorifiedGremlin]

Im still in the upgrading the printer with arbitrary printed parts phase 😂 Having a young kid is a good justification tho, endless custom cheap toys is kinda incredible

[@thenextlayer]

Yup.

I'm excited to try vase mode. But I do want my vases & planters think so they don't look like cheap dollar store plastic containers. Love the draw organizers you did! Definitely going to try that.

[@timmyreeves4546]

Wow, those are awesome suggestions and ideas. Thank you!!

Hi there! Love your videos! Don't mind the hateful comments. Shalom my brother.

[@markmoulin41]

Tools, heck yes. That would be great!

[@thenextlayer]

The video is already out check my past videos!

[@brendonsorenson5560]

Great videos! Your presentation is spot on!

[@catherineblair550]

OMG. Such great ideas. I finally obtained my first 3D printer to print custom keyboards. But what else could I do with it??? I am sure not into statues and toys, however, I am sure I need to start there as an absolute beginner.

Super cool video😊. I wish you could make a video on small 3d printed gadgets🤩👍

[@thenextlayer]

I can do that. Subscribe :)

סרטון נחמד, כבוד למולדת 😊 לא יודע אם הייתי מדפיס פח אשפה, במיוחד כאשר העיצוב סתם פשוט וחלק ולא משהו ייחודי ומעניין. נראה לי קצת בזבוז חומר וכסף. כנ"ל לדברים אחרים שאפשר למשל להכין מעץ בהרבה יותר זול כמו מגירות או תופסנים וכו'. אבל כן היו כמה רעיונות אחרים נחמדים, בכל מקרה בהצלחה ויישר כוח!

Do you recommend anker make?

I have a 72" 5 shelf unit in my garage. The space between two shelves is 15" and of course I needed 16 1/2" for a particular item. So, I printed very easy extenders to allow me to shelf my item.

I bought my first 3D printer in 2015 so I could replace plastic parts on anything i could think of. It has saved hundreds of dollars by designing and printing replacement parts on appliances, and many other items.

Printed a whole insert for my Feast for Odin board game!

[@ShermanIron]

Thank You I am new and have lots of time on my hands I am going to try several of these ideas
