Free 3D Printed Repairs for Strangers

[@schizophrenicgaming365]

Repair over replace is something we need to embrace as a society

[@Zie_carpentry]

Excuseme 🤝🤝🤝

[@scottgriz]

I've repaired my vacuum cleaner twice with my 3D printer. Keeping stuff going is so much fun.

[@shelbyseelbach9568]

RE-EMBRACE. Repair used to be the norm for most everything, not all that long ago.

[@stillinfamous]

Couldn’t agree more! I’d much rather spend an hour or two making a part by hand then buying a new one.

[@rubenverster250]

@@scottgriz What to do if the motor burns out :')

[@yupinli]

Hi Morley, thanks again for the repair! I reinstalled my scooter holder with a bit of give and it is working beautifully. I would have never thought to use epoxy!

[@MorleyKert]

That’s awesome to hear! It was great meeting you, thanks for being part of the video 😊

[@ebb632]

This is something to revolve your channel around, wholesome, entertaining, and there's the endless intrigue in new items and new repairs!

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you so much! Definitely gonna do more 3D printed repairs 😊

[@bbrachman]

Possibly the most interesting, fun video I have seen in a long time. Fixing things is so cool and satisfying. Next time, count the number of people who could have fixed their item without a 3D printer. To you and me, repairing is natural. Most it is not.

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you! I’m excited to do this again

[@bbrachman]

@@MorleyKert The fun thing was that you had mostly successes. (from the video) also, the 'in use' images nailed the fix. I just wish I was as fluent in Fusion 360 as you are. Everything seems like a challenge to make for me.

[@MorleyKert]

@@bbrachman keep practicing!

[@LongerLJ]

yeah! I love it! I love people like Morley!

[@piemangamez8456]

Imo this is true functional prints. This is one of the best uses for 3d printing. Great job Morley

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you so much!

[@home-lab]

Pink, pink and do not forget the pink filament! Thanks for sharing this video; it’s was fun to watch

[@MorleyKert]

Thanks for watching!

[@collin_builds]

Your last two videos have been absolute home runs! Love seeing you helping the community and keeping items out of the landfill

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you so much! 😊❤️

[@DannyChinchilla1987]

Love all the functional prints & how you took the time to educate other on 3D printing!

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you! All of the conversations were probably the best part of the day. A lot of people had never seen a 3D printer before and just wanted to learn more and watch them work!

[@shibbleswentworth]

great idea!! you should contract services to the local library to be an in-house designer with office hours :) We can support 3d printers to libraries to really expand public access, use, and knowledge!

[@CrustyBoot]

Really liked this concept for a video! Love when people can immediately see the value in printing like this.

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you!

1:48 for those who are interested... The fastest speed skating 500 metres by a male athlete is 33.61 seconds, by Pavel Kulizhnikov (Russia) at the ISU World Cup Speed Skating Final in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, on 9 March 2019.

[@BasedBidoof]

I love that moment at 9:50, where it clicks. That's one of my favorite things about 3D printing.

[@MorleyKert]

Yes! So satisfying.

[@trohn_javolta8485]

This is the best promotional video for 3d printing in general I can think of! I really liked it and hope you'll be doing this again.

[@MorleyKert]

That's so great to hear! I hope to do it again soon.

[@m97120]

This was dope! I want to see more of this. Solving people's small problems through the power of "magic" and wholesomeness. And preventing things from landing in the trash! That lady had it on point. Sometimes a tiny part breaks and and it's game over for the whole thing. The next thing after Right to Repair should be Right to Replicate if a company doesn't want to sell affordable replacement parts.

[@MorleyKert]

Thanks for watching! Definitely gonna make more videos like this

[@JesperMakes]

I just love your approach here Morley, and the little dramas revolving around the repairs. Also your girlfriend does a great job of filming!

[@MorleyKert]

She's the best!

[@0xteknogeek]

now THIS is what 3D printing is all about!! prototyping, simple fixes, helping out the community. love it 😊

[@MorleyKert]

Yes!! Thanks for watching 😊

[@SoapyCilantro]

LOVED this! Would make for an amazing series + opportunity to partner up with other makers. Keep ‘em coming man, you’re killing it!

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you! Yeah I definitely want to do it again

[@florianffa]

The guy at 10:15 was definitely considering buying a printer. Haha! Great video!

[@GermNick]

Very cool of you to do. I love this, its the best public outreach of what 3d printing can do for people ive ever seen.

[@MorleyKert]

Thanks for watching!

[@r4z0r84]

Very nice, this is pretty much all I use my 3d printer for, I work at 5 schools so plenty of things break all the time, fixed doors, flag poles, key holders, and anything else that breaks, such a great idea to have randoms off the street for repairs would improve your 3d skills by having to create random objects, so satisfying when it fits on the first print XD

[@Zie_carpentry]

👍👍👍👍

[@davebauerart]

A perfect evolution of fixing things around your own house. It’s really cool to see everyone who was on board for the concept.

[@timgarrett203]

Watched all 3 of these repair videos. So good! Your patients, cad skills, friendliness and upbeat, positive personality really gives a great public insight into the maker community. I think you have a good model for a little shop around the corner! Your community seems really nice!

[@GoldenTV3]

This would be a great idea for high school students who are in engineering classes or are thinking of going into engineering. Helps build a skill set, develops problem solving, helps out the community, etc..

[@Zie_carpentry]

👍👍

[@Coilboii]

this was a really good idea, haven't seen any other of your videos. awesome!

[@MorleyKert]

Thanks for watching!

[@daliasprints9798]

Love this. I feel like it's an application where faster printers would really shine, too.

[@MorleyKert]

Definitely! Thanks for watching :)

[@tonyb9785]

Fantastic idea and best video yet IMO. I'll definitely be keeping this idea in the back of my head; definitely a very cool way to help people, meet new people, expand your own problem solving abilities, and expose people to 3d printing, and some of the manufacturing process. I could definitely see this being a good way to also get your name out, if you wanted to take on more complex projects for a money.

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you so much!

[@marsgizmo]

super cool idea! 👏😎

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you!

[@josepharnson8153]

Absolutely love your videos Morley! What a fun way to give back to your community. It was perfect the fixes were mostly small! Can't wait for the next installment of Morley Repairs a Community haha

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you!

[@Alanworman]

This totally rocks. Ive been part of somthing simalaur. We had someone doing similar to you. Had a uni student doing electronics. And I did some manual fixing stuff, gluing and WD40. The interaction with the lady in the pink top was awesome, you shared and demo great knowledge with the capillaries. And you made her part of the fixing by having to come up with a soulition for the ballest. I belive fixing stuff is a Makers super power! Good on you, would love to see you do this more and may be end up with a tip or a talk through of something you did that day.

[@simon_samuelsson]

This is awesome. I do this type of thing on my spare time, helping people repair their stuff. It saddens me how much get thrown away because of a small broken pice and no way of getting a new one. I like 3d printing for what it enables me to do. But there is no way for me to do it as a business, people can't pay for the real cost. I love this video for the joy and for seeing more people than me doing it. Thank you.

[@MrRjk2011]

Great video and top skills. I enjoy printing parts for the home but never really thought about offering this to people. Seeing the satisfaction of broken things being restored via 3D printing is awesome. Have subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to seeing what you guys do next.

[@sebastiansombra]

wow! Loved your video. Lots of great things happening: i) Getting people into 3D, ii) creating awareness of not just throwing things away and buying new ones with all the environment issues related to packaging, shipping, etc; iii) making new friends! Congratulations!

[@imqqmi]

I really like these kinds of repairs! I did some of it myself, with a fridge door shelve, one of the hooks were broken off. I've filed it down square and fitted a 3d printed filler and glued it in. Knobs with threads, broken off threaded plastic holes etc.

[@alexrobles7744]

Damn, I can't love this post enough. You not only show us how you repair daily stuff with 3d printer, show us how to use fusion to make it.. you even went out to the masses to spread the words. Yes, we can do our own repairs sometimes. 3d printing is awesome.

[@MorleyKert]

Thanks for watching and the kind words 😊❤️

[@bowieinc]

What a great video! I really enjoyed it. Fixing peoples stuff with my 3D printers is my absolute favorite thing to do!

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you! It's such a great feeling.

[@XwarblastX]

Awesome job! I love getting more and more people into 3d printing. And the fact that you even put in the first prototypes instead of cutting it out gives ma a lot more confidence in my ability to recreate things with calipers haha.

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you! I’m a huge fan of getting to the first prototype as fast as possible and accepting it wont be perfect, taking measurements from that and using it to make a second, better version! Especially for really small stuff like this.

[@youngsuk3329]

Tks for inspiring people to repair stuff instead of throwing away damaged ones. Also you rock

[@theonlyiainever]

Cool to see the results of this. I was curious how it would work out. My biggest concern was length of time it would take to print things but seems like you were able to do some smaller prints

[@mlubecke]

What a great way to get people interested in 3d printing. And you are so amazing and nice. We need more people like you in this world. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you so much!

[@TwistedTwineWoodworking]

Loved this!!! Great job Morley…showing people how handy it is to have a 3d printer or know someone close who has one. And Yes, pink Filament for sure!!

[@SoManyTopics]

Due to your personality and the way you are with people, my advice for you is to prepare yourself for success because the world needs more of what your bringing, and by the simple nature of supply and demand, that will push you to the front. Keep doing what you're doing, it's coming.

[@MorleyKert]

Wow that’s so nice, thank you so much 😊❤️

[@kazolar]

How do you not have pink ;) my daughter is almost 9 and I’ve been making stuff for her for as long she could talk and ask for whatever (Pokemon, muppets, Among us...), I have stocked up on multiple shades of pink, regular pla, glitter, petg. Had to make sure I had the right shades of everything after my son started asking for Spider-Man things. Great video. Might be something I may do after my bambu labs x1 arrives, key is show people that 3D printing can be fast, my other machines aren’t very portable, even my voron 2.4 is not very easy to move around.

[@MrKretzsches]

What a cool idea! Loved the mix of doing something practical and introducing strangers to 3d printing who may have never seen a printer before. I am always curious about the actual design part, but I guess it's harder to show that in such a setting.

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you! I show the in-depth design process in a lot of my other 3D printing videos 😊

[@D3kryption]

Mate, that was so nice of you do to this and spread 3d geekness :D Nice job!

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you!

[@Taylachteam]

Please make this a series!!

[@MorleyKert]

Hoping to do more soon!

[@milhooz]

Great initiative. A comment for the guy who printed the scooter holder if he ever comes across this video: the part could have been stronger if printed in the other direction. Always think of which direction the forces will be applied when designing an element, I would have put it vertically on the print bed so the hook and surface on the wall are all part of the same layer. In this case, it probably broke during installation on the wall so that might not have changed anything but still a good idea to keep that in mind.

[@Convolutedtubules]

This should be open 24/7! Great work.

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you!

[@greggv8]

For the scooter holder a thin back plate epoxied on would strengthen it and prevent it breaking again at a different layer line. Make it 4 layers thick.

[@tko3779]

This is fantastic. Advanced notice would be best. If people respond as well you’ll have an idea of what you can print throughout the day. Linking the vids to the groups would amazing. This is so great on so many levels. Good work.

[@MorleyKert]

Thank you so much! Yeah I’m gonna try and advertise it for a few weeks before doing the next one.

[@amandioreal2293]

It's nice to see people happy. Great work

[@bainsubscriptions4903]

I'm not even sure how you ended up in my KZbin homepage feed but this is a great watch. I migrated to Canada a few months ago and had to sell my 3D printer that before leaving home. I must admit I was a bit jealous watching this video when I thought through all of the useful things that I printed using mine, I'm definitely going to replace it soon. I'll definitely pay attention to where you will be showcasing next and try to make it if I can to meet you in person.

[@dimensional7915]

the X1 Carbon would be fantastic for this. gives you native support for faster and more accurate printing along with support for up to 16 color multiprinting for things that need just a bit more detail like that fan knob for example would have been amazing with a black legend over just plane embossed

Just got my first 3d printer and printing upgrades for the printer in white giant arm brand filament and it prints so clean love it so far also giant arm do all colours pink included so far best filament I've used

[@Heikousen9]

I'm in a FB group that's all about repairing stuff so they don't have to throw or buy things and I love it, but sometimes things are too specific to be replaced (like the fan button in this video) so 3D printing it's indeed helpful. I bought some cheap fans that keep falling because the plastic base was crooked, so 3d printing could've spared me a lot of pain 😂

[@mbrock5532]

What a great idea! I know people still look at 3D printing as black magic and are amazed by it. Things like this are great because it shows people there are functional uses for it, not just printing Star Wars characters! :) Of course, it would probably take a lot of replacement items to equal what a 3D printer costs and the time investment to use it, but still.... Good on you, Morley

[@bertybotsbohne622]

stunning performance - construct on the fly. dude great work

[@studiogerk]

That looked like fun. You definitely need some pink filament! Cheers from Oakville. I also used to live on literally the same block as where that cafe is now. Fun stuff!

@@MorleyKert When you're right on Bloor street there's usually on a very small few minute window where there is zero cars driving, usually somewhere between 4:30am-ish and 5:00am-ish. I could put my head out the window of my bedroom and look up and down bloor both ways and see nothing. Then one car, and then it was chaos again for 24 hours.

Salut Morley, super initiative que tu as eu, ça à permis à ceux qui sont venu pour une réparation de voir ce à quoi correspond l'impression 3D et son utilité dans la vie de tous les jours et rien que pour ça ça valait surement le déplacement, sans compter les rencontres qui valent elles aussi le coup. Je ne maîtrise pas du tout les logiciels de modélisation mais je vais m'y atteler pour pouvoir faire des pièces de réparation, et comme nous avons une association qui organise des "repair' café" ça pourrait être une bonne idée de leur proposer lors de ces journées de rencontres qu'ils font pour réparer les petits électro-ménagers des réparations avec l'impression 3D 👍

yes this is just the kingpin way to use 3d prints and probably my favorite video infact near the end the lady is right sometime you loose a simple part its forced to be thrown away when you can just 3d the part (heck it can happen with electronics too when its just the most miniscule problem on the circuit boards)
