I've been keeping an eye on FLsun's products since the T1 came out, really curious about what they’ll come up with next. Honestly, I'm excited about the new Pro model because it seems to fit my needs perfectly. Compared to similar machines, it offers great functionality and performance for the price. Plus, with the price drop, it’s perfect for someone like me who has a limited budget but still wants high quality. I can’t wait to see how it performs!
Indeed, learning to print custom objects with a 3d printer is very useful. I have printed many things from a Wifi access point wall mount with POE access to the tap on my water butt, which was lost. Additive manufacturing is now just about in the reach of anyone with ready to set up printers and easy to use modelling software. Thanks for your enthusiasm and explanations. :)
Exactly! It’s a game-changer when you realize you can actually print everything you want, i’s like having an endless supply of replacements too! Glad you enjoyed the video!
I would like to say that in my opinion, the FLsun machine is a dark horse, and its deltas design is simply too cool. I think their product is not just a decoration, but has real strength. There is no warping during the reprinting process, because their machine can generate enough temperature and the power of the fan is enough to give force. So far, I have purchased two FLsun printers, and I can strongly feel that their products are improving, speed and quality are steadily improving!
Beautiful cat. I love it. And that 3D Charizard is awesome! I need to get myself a 3D printer too. I have so many things I need create. That is such a cool hobby. You're awesome Sayaka! 😁
You are the cutest 3D printing blogger I have ever met, I like your cat very much, the content you explained is very detailed, and I look forward to having FLSUN T1 Pro in the future!
3D printer is literally the best thing you can ever buy, the only limits is your imagination. I can tell through everything you printed, you are not experiencing shortages in that domain lol That's a really nice 3D printer, quality is really really good 👍🏽 Have a great weekend and keep it up the great job 💪🏽
Thanks so much for sharing! Watching the video totally blew my mind. I had no idea 3D printing could be this fast and produce such detailed models. Gotta get one of these bad boys and give it a try!
Great video. I noticed some stringing on some of your prints, if not already done, make sure your filament is super dry (either with a filament dryer, or low heat whatever (~45C for PLA) for multiple hours), and storing it in a sealed dry container. CNCkitchen has made a great video recently around desicant bags.
I've been printing since 2018. My first printer was an Anet A8. Yes, *that* Anet A8, the one that is infamous for sometimes bursting into flames. But once I fixed the few glaring issues that could lead to combustion, it actually turned out to be a real workhorse. (Never ran the thing unattended tho. I'm not stupid, nor am I reckless.) Probably not the wisest "my first 3D printer" for a complete newbie, because the A8 basically arrived as a pile of parts; you had to assemble the thing from the ground up. But, through first building, and then maintaining it, I learned a ton. After that I moved on to an Ender 3. Also a kit printer that you had to assemble, but some of the parts were pre-assembled, so it wasn't too difficult. Still learned a ton because of it, and I upgraded that thing seven ways from Sunday. Had one or two other machines after the Ender 3, and am currently using an Anycubic Kobra Neo (FDM) and also a Photon Mono 2 (resin.) Though I am eyeing a Bambu Lab machine as my next upgrade. Those look pretty sweet, and at least from the hardware side of things, I feel like I'm at a point where I want a machine that's ready to go out of the box and that "just (more or less) works."
This video make me want a food 3D printer. So I looked it up, and it's actually a thing! Not quite the replicator from Star Trek, but it's a good start.
A great topic to talk about, especially after you have already showcased some of your amazing creations. I have been playing with the idea of getting into it, but I feel like I am lacking the creativity for it. I have a background in mechanical engineering and computer science, so designing parts shouldn't be that big of a problem, but the path from zero to a product I actually have need for seems quite long and has kept me from getting a 3D printer so far (plus the cost and the space, of course). I do see many possible use cases for it, though, like stuff for cars that I am working on (old plastic tends to become brittle and break at some point) or keyboard feet just like yours that break off. So someday I might have a 3D printer too :).
Great videos and editing! You are really talented. Show idea * could you build and program a simple PCB (discussing the components along the way) or 3d print and modify one yourself with wire inlay tracers etc? 🤔 Wishing you continued success with the channel!!
It's exciting to hear the joy you share here about 3D printing and designing :) I mentioned it in one of your shorts but I personally have a Neptune 3 Pro which is super fun to use! My best friend loves the Splatoon series and so I learned some Blender in the past weeks to 3D design Agent/Captain 3 from said game. The print turned out very good and she was super happy to receive it :D Personally I use the printer more for useful things like Raspberry Pi cases, VR Headset wall mounts and coasters in the form of 3.5" floppy diskettes recently. Still both very valid reasons to have a printer and again, it makes good gifts too! People love those flexi figures from Thingiverse :D Also had a good laugh @0:37 🤣
Great explanation. I bough a smaller 3D printer a while ago and I think it's great. Even though I'm more of an occasional user, I consider a 3D-Printer a great tool. I guess I'll buy another one sooner or later, so that I could use and try the additional materials you mentioned. Aside from several helpers and holders, to attach a power strip to my self-made workbench rack, secure my multimeter probes, printing spare parts is a great use case. Spacers for circuit boards, holders for modern capacitors in old devices or appliances, a new knob for a kitchen appliance. Combined with a laser engraver or laser cutter and potent glue, the possibilities are pretty much endless.
Thank you! I'm really glad you found the explanation helpful. I completely agree that a 3D printer is an invaluable tool, especially for projects involving electronics and devices
Thank you for the great introduction. It would be nice if you could cover filament options in even more depth, explaining how much stress printed parts can endure, whether one can screw self-tapping screws into them, etc. I'd use a 3D printer for creating functional parts, like the stand on your keyboard, or a support structure. It would be great to learn about the heat resistance and mechanical properties of printed parts, depending on what filament one uses.
Hi Sayaca, yet another great little video. I think you've managed to get me hooked! Depending on price here in the UK, I'll get one as expensive as I can. One thing Sayaka, sometimes I worry about you hurting your hands. You have nice hands. But, I guess you're used to it. Great Stuff! and thank you.
A buddy of mine got a 3D printer a few months ago to create parts no longer available. Ended up getting laid off from his job a month later. Now he has more business than he can handle and doing better than ever. Great way to start an entrepreneurship.
Wow, that’s inspiring! It’s amazing how something like a 3D printer can open up entirely new career paths, especially with the demand for hard-to-find parts.
Please also make a video about the risks of 3D printing! Fumes and micro particles are an issue. They can go in the skin and make it thrug the loungs into the bloodstream. Look for "3d printing fumes" in youtube search for example and watch afew videos. Some specialised fillaments are also not safe to touch, its like carbon micro needles that stengthen the part but also can stick out. Take precausions and be safe everybody!
Great video, Eleonora! I am thinking about starting 3d-Printing, but was also worried about the hurdles of the past. Your "Star-Ship-Enterprise-Replicator" printer is really cool, would also like to have one..:)
Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video! 😊 Starting with 3D printing can seem intimidating, but it’s become much more accessible, with many beginner-friendly printers on the market now. The 'Star-Ship-Enterprise-Replicator' model makes the process a lot of fun 😁
@@Sayakas_Digital_Attic I guess i will go with Prusa, since i tried them out at creator workshops lately ( i printed the "Aphrodite of Milo" statue). Is a littly costly though, for the few time i will use it..
@@Sayakas_Digital_Attic Btw I am also obsessed with 3d. i am rendering 3d models on computers of the 80's like the USS Enterprise in BASIC: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FLAUYP9Ylb8.html
Eleonora, here is a 3D modell of the USS Enterprise, i rendered on a Commodore Plus/4 a while ago. I hope you like it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FLAUYP9Ylb8.html
Thank you for a great presentation. The description of the different types of printing material was particularly interesting. Flsun would do well to hire you as a spokesperson. I looked to see that FLsun printers are available in Canada so I just have to see if the finance committee (my wife) will authorize the purchase.
3-D printers are pretty amazing, but I'm waiting for the day when they make printers that can synthesize any kind of matter. So when you buy a toaster on eBay, they won't pack up a toaster and mail it to you; they'll download it to your matter synthesizer and a shiny new toaster will print right there beside you on your desk. How a wait do you think we have?
Very nice video. But the T1 Pro is also a really good printer. Will probably soon replace my aging Super Racer. PS:how did you manage to print such a realistic cat 😝
As long as you don't get a cheap ender 3 you'll save yourself a ton of problems lol i bought an ender-3 and manually calibrating that thing is a massive pain in the a$% Get one with self-leveling out of the box and you're set, then the hard part is figuring out CAD software to really be able to make use of it
Thanks for sharing! Can I call it the Speed Demon or a Supercar? Of course, that’s my son’s idea because we’ve got a T1, and it’s not just fast-it’s helped us create some sick models. I’m curious, what’s the diff between the T1 Pro and the T1?
That materials section was interesting. Have you tried designing and printing computer cases? I think we could do with microcomputer cases (maybe similar in style to the ZX Spectrum or Oric Atmos) but for the PC. That wood filament might be interesting for such a project!
Yes, the wood filament is really nice! I’ve already tried printing a case for the classic Game Boy and a Commodore 64 in pieces and they turned out pretty well
@@Sayakas_Digital_Attic Have you tried making a microcomputer design for x86? Maybe an existing classic's design could be tweaked to fit the mother board mounts and keyboard layout of an x86 computer?
Well, I thought the same at first, but then I realized that the software is actually really widespread and widely used. There are tons of tutorials on RU-vid and online.
I am really wanting to get a 3d printer thiis holiday season...hoping maybe there will be some deals. I have built an ebike camper and there are so many custom bits I have in mind that would come to fruition much cheaper and quicker with a decent 3d printer, I think.
