Welcome to Part 1 of "However many i feel like making" 3d Printing tutorials! With some confidence and a cheap power tool you can knock down and erase layer lines on PLA prints in a few minutes! Now clearly this wont work with small detailed items but for large armor prints and big pieces this can take you tons of time on post-work and help you gain a flat smooth surface without layer after layer of primer!

You asked for ideas on filling in bad spots on prints. I have started using a 3d pen to plastic weld/fill after I have stitched the joints together with soddering iron. But also using the 3d pen to build up bad or missing areas with the same filament and having great success. This might help your future builds, stops unwanted large deep areas of wood filler and colour matches your print. And stronger than glue. I totally dig your achievement dude Awesome build, awesome for sharing your build. I'm plucking up the courage to commit to building a suit, you are very inspiring. Keep up the good work 👍👍👍

This is an uplifiting video! I did some orbital, mouse and hand sanding today on some of my old helmets and I was using 120 and 220 grit sandpaper. I will pick up some 80 grit discs and give them a shot as well to follow along. I had a similar base rear support surface issue as well. I tried woodfiller at first then Bondo spot putty, but looks like I got myself in a sanding nightmare by doing the latter. LOL live and learn, trial by fire

Mystery solved. I did some car bodywork before, but I wasn't sure if PLA can relate. Turns out I would make lots of mistakes if I didn't watch your video. First off, sanding PLA is more like sanding bumper on car (similar grits used). Second, I had no idea that you can use wood filler! I thought it relies on wood's porosity, therefore I wouldn't consider it as a filler. Thank you for your videos, mate. I really enjoy them and learn a lot :)

Hey Frank..The best thing I've learned in the first months of 3 printing is which products to use and when you apply them. This deserves it's own video. In my very limited experience, (correct me if I'm wrong) Putty Glaze seems to work best for fine print lines, and to use in tight corners where sanding is tough to get at, while straight Automotive Bondo is best for any gaps when you glue parts together, or if you damage a part by over-sanding. One caveat, use Bondo sparingly because it's much harder to sand down than putty glaze or wood filler and you will either be left with a raised surface when you prime or you'll have to sand so much that you'll burn surrounding print areas or create "valleys" just trying to knock down the Bondo. Like I said, this topic deserves it's own video, which products, when to use them and how.

Hi Frank, new sub here. About to take on a stormbreaker build using all your suggestions. But also doing some star boost prints as well here and there. Big question, how do you do your orientation, and is it even a real concern? A few different makers I've watched talked about layer strength with orientation being a factor. Do you concern yourself with that?

I believe in one of his other videos he uses a line scriber to get those fine details back into the prints. I'm not entirely sure what you're asking or if you've gotten an answer since you asked a year ago, but they're like $10-$15 USD on Amazon or maybe can be found at a hobby store since they're usually used for model building I think.

Would you consider a video (or simply listing here in comments) showing everything you use starting with wood filler and ending on - likely - varnish or polish? I presume you use wood filler, then filler spray, primary, etc etc. Would really help a noob like me started as I have to not only figure out the whole process and what to use on each step but also trace it down to the Portuguese (where I live) most similar product I can find,colour codes, etc etc. Thanks in advance!
@FranklyBuilt
@FranklyBuilt 4 года назад
I would but first. I don’t use any filler primer or wood filler. I only use small dots of wood filler to fix hole or imperfections. Aside from that I do cover my painting methods in some other videos but I don’t paint and differently then what the can or Spraypaint tells you to do. Last. Me giving painting tips is useless. Air temp, humidity, elevation, room temp, brand of paint, how long it’s been on the shelf, how close you spray, how well YOU sanded. All effect painting. You NEED to practice on your own. No guide out there will tell you how to paint perfectly. There are way to many variables
@jonatasferreira6471
@jonatasferreira6471 4 года назад
@@FranklyBuilt oh yeah for sure. all I was asking - and maybe it's too much to ask but hey, doesn't stop me from trying lol - was a brief description of the process I guess. I presume it would be somewhat similar to what you'd do say in a car bump or something like that. I have literally 0 experience with paint other than to grab a can and spray the heck out of it :) I figured some sort of filler and / or primer would be needed to get the surface as smooth as possible. The gold faceplate for instance, the noob in my would just grab a shiny gold spray paint and get it done but for what I could gather there's all sorts of steps one can / should take to get a proper finish. Some suggest a black primer, then metal silver, then brush (to make it look like scratched metal) then metalic gold...ooof sounds like I need a lot more than "just a few cans of spray paint"

This is an old thread, but if you get a chance to respond, I'm printing a Mando helmet in 8 pieces and the first piece took 9 hours but I printed it with layer height set to 0.3 and the lines are reaaaally obvious. Wondering what my options are - is palm sanding going to work to level things out or are the lines too deep? Could I run it over with some filler primer? This is my first large-scale print and I'm trying to figure out whether this piece can be rescued or am I just going to have to junk it and reprint with 0.2/0.16 layer height and deal with the 12 hour print time?

Yes. Big reasons. Smoother prints and better surface finish. Also it eliminates the huge crop circles that are left on the front of the faceplate from the top layers. And it’s used face less material. And prints quicker.

Wet sanding plastic is the only way. I’m an automotive painter and anything plastic needs wet sanded so you don’t get fuzzies. Makes life so much easier lol

I oddly have to disagree with that my man. I never wetsand any of my printed before primer and it’s been fine this entire time.

@@FranklyBuilt You'll use far less primer. I'm sure it looks fine but covering a plastic part in two coats instead of having to bury sand scratch and fuzzies makes wet sanding worth it lol.

I already have a B&D mouse sander, would that work just as well or not since it isn't a rotational sander, it just vibrates side-to-side quickly?

I think the electric sander that has a triangular shape would be best to also get all the tight spots.
