100% 3D Printed Skateboard 

The Dan reveal is great.

8:28 I've once heard that an engineer is a person, who forgot more math than you ever knew And I wholeheartedly agree with that

Never throw old printers away, they have feelings

The stunt double reveal is one of the funniest things I've seen on RU-vid in a long time 😂😂😂

Ah yes, the classic engineer wanting to skate but being too scared after falling once. I am very familiar with this

I did not expect that to be Dan, I was just surprised how good Emily got in two weeks😂😂

Her crazy dorkiness scratches a humor itch that doesn't often get scratched.

He said "That's my wife" and I believed him. But then I had to rewatch the whole video just to make sure there weren't any more secret Dans. My trust is broken but my engagement has never been higher.

I love how unhinged her ideas are and she's so happy making them that I am happy

That reaction to being told to throw away the prized first printer was on point

I respect a woman that can go full goblin mode. That's the reason I subscribed to this channel.

As a fellow alumni it's so cool seeing you ride around the university! I used to work in the gardens so seeing clips of yall messing around back there brings back so many memories. Love the videos!

I’d love to see more about your plastic soldering technique and how well it works. I’ve tried it a few times on different types of plastic and never gotten it to actually work well.

As a fellow longboarding Clemson alum, I can also attest to the emergency Mach 8 dismount coming back down from Kite Hill after having to move my car to make room for tailgating. Super cool builds!!!

I think Braille Skateboarding still does their "you make it we skate it" series.

This worked so much better than I'd expect from 3d printed bearings!

I love how consistently you start a project before realizing how cursed it's gonna be. Never stop to think.

Best stunt double reveal, i had to go back and rewatch all the skating. He is the perfect body double.

the terror is that man's movements at 3:05. Brother jumped off and just stood for a solid second

3D printing bearings are pretty okay for non "heavy" things (what is heavy). I use metal BBs, print the inner and outer ring and a slightly undersized hole to sneak in all the BBs. Filament spool holders, lazy Susan, fidget spinner (whatever you get the point) they work well

I love the energy of these videos. If more people were this psyched about hobbies, the world would be a better place.

I had to go back and rewatch the actual skating scenes! Well played!!! 😆😆

6:45 yes and I am mad jealous, she is an absolute treasure. Great build as always Emily 😌

Stunt double reveal changed my whole perspective on life! Caused me to rewind & notice the knee pads! Friggin brilliant!

Had literally finished watching almost all your vids and then this dropped two hours ago. Great work Emily. 😂

I love her chaotic energy it's the best.

This is all the convincing I needed to attempt this. Awesome work!!

Make a life sized B1 Battle Droid please

Worked really well. Amazing video.

Skating montage was RADICAL!!!!!

Honestly we LOLed when Dan took the wig off. Died even.

Great video! Especially how you put the sponsor segment at the end ❤

love this skateboard and that toilet you printed haha😆 Looking forward more interesting project!

Great design, its definitly not gonna break appart at all!

Amazing video and hilarious ending! ::D

What awesome printing setup

i love the vibes of the video and the crazy idea to entirely 3d print a skateboard. And it was actually working

1:20 - Man I feel this; my Artillery X1 is just discarded in a corner.. I feel kinda bad. He was loyal; despite me spending hours by-weekly screwing with it.

Wow I can't beleave that work . Great video guys

Having a wife that can 3D print her own toys instead of shopping, WIN

Great video! The ending is so unexpected lol

The music selection for the skateboard test was a rollercoaster of emotion for me.

Bombing a hill on a 3D printed penny is wild lmao. Great video!

Bro kindly asked for his camera man immunity after realizing he almost died

new video, its awesome!

Emily's videos: "What could possibly go wr- wait, it's actually w- oh, yup, there it is."

I'm always excited for your vids. Next up: 3D printed camera w/ 3D printed film! I bet you could do it.

this has worked 3x better than i expected

Always cool to see two things I like combined

I hope you have a filament recycler. If not, I hope you make a video about getting and setting one up.

Still amazed at how well it worked out

this is pretty cool

for a completely 3D printed board that's impressive!

Had to go back to see all the places I was fooled to think it was emily.

I watched this on the bus the other day, its a very interesting project,especially when you need it to support your weight

Nice board. Held up longer than at least I expected.

radical video bro

Probably needs to at least double the size of those wheel truck axles and bearings - and ABS would prolly help a lot too. Still, exactly the kind of engineering chaotic good I need on a Sunday afternoon. Roller blades?????

well, that worked WAY better than I thought it would

This is awesome, you are awesome, please send this to braille 👍 Also, I wonder if it would make a difference in strength if you used something like protopasta htpla or reinforced nylon

The last half of this video is so unhinged I love it

"my scalp is wet" hoodies in a sunny day isn’t the best idea ahahaha

That's so cool! How can I get a copy of the bearings that you used? Loved the video, it was something I also always thought about :)

make a 3d printed shower next

1:51 I did this exact thing the other day when designing a dust collection system for a sander. Wasted a decent amount of filament for something that would’ve taken 4 seconds to do🤦🏼‍♂️😂

Omg I love this!! In 2007 I broke 4 toes skateboarding. But then I got back into it in 2020, and ended up 3d printing a penny board for fun! It wasn't 100% 3d printed, but it was pretty close!

cant believe you could actually had fun for a few minutes before breaking. i have an idea for you to try (i failed), build a skate/longboard braking system!

🤣🤣🤣🤣 “Alright, let’s see what you broke…”

I love that these are like mark rober videos but way more my speed

Tony Hawk would be proud of you.

Make one of these for Braille skateboards!

Last fall I also printed a 55cm board. After my exam (school) I want to print an 80cm board from PETG and PCCF for the axle.

3:36 ok that one got me 😂😂😂

Awesome video Emily! Do you post the files for the board anywhere? Would love to try printing it using a les brittle plastic.

and thats a SNAP

I can decently ride a skateboard and I have to say, you were doing a great job. I also have a 3d printer and you are a genius!

Hey Emily, I thought I saw you ripping that thing around campus the other day! I wish I came over

I feel like this is a PSA about why every experimenter/inventor/"maker" shop needs to have some subtractive machining capabilities in addition to printing, because being able to make even just a few smaller parts out of aluminum or even hard woods would really improve the overall strength of these systems like the skateboard.

Bambu Forest.. that was cool and for that you get a sub

Im here from Kuris Conners video about the command center gaming chair (its not a chair) Really cool that you helped him out with that video This video is also very cool, Im super impressed you went all the way and made a full board after the penny board Im subscribed now and can't wait to see more from you

LOL I love that Emily still has her first printer XD

The amount of money and printers just for "video production" is just amazing

Skateboard decks are concave wouldn't that help with the stability? Or is it just that much easier to print it flat? I've been thinking about 3D printing forms for a press to make Penny and nickel board decks (out of wood).

she runs like shes playing skate 3 i love it

Nice work!! Why not using ring solid bearing? Maybe on petg?

I screamed at the reveal

Dang it now I'm going to find myself sayind "Daann... Come back Dan.. Dann nooo" 😂😂❤

I want to drop in on this board!

I don’t know much about printing plastic, but would it be possible to embed metal parts into the high stress plastic parts? I am thinking interlocking metal parts that can be coated with silicone spray and then inserted. Sort of like metal bones with plastic flesh.

Emily the engineer. She learned engineering so we don't have to 😂😂😂

can you put it online at for example printables so i can make it too

Should make a fresh board an send one over to the guys at Braille skateboarding! I bet they'd have a blast shredding on this

I come for the 3D printing, I stay for the comedy. XD

Fun project!! Would you recommend?!?

You need to add a solid iron/steel rod through the center of the skateboard axel through its full length of each axel so the plastic axel can hold your weight and handle the skateboard moving around. The plastic axel is cracking and breaking entirely when in use since the crack can travel through the entire 3d printed axel when it is under load but if you add an Iron/steel rod through the middle of the Skateboard axel then the axial load stays on the outer edges and can avoid Skateboard axels cracking under load. Go for 70%plastic 30% Metal rod or 60%plastic 40%Metal rod for Skateboard axel configurations.

Love it, we can do so much fun shit with our printers.. and damn, that bambu forest is to die for

huh PLA... I'd certainly need to do the deck in more pieces than you, and it would take forever, but that probably brings this project into the realm of what my ender 3 can do. I was expecting something like nylon or abs, whcih technically I could do but really would push the setup I've got

It’s not about the money spent, it’s about the bones broken along the way

Not sure if this ended with an ad spot for Brilliant... or a hit piece.

Send it to Braile skateboarding! They test this kind of inventions 🎉❤
