I bought a 3d printer a few months ago (Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro), and to be honest, all I printed were bits and pieces from Thingiverse etc, even though I really wanted to make ‘useful’ things with it. Part of the problem was that I was scared of learning to model in software, even though I did have some experience in 3ds Max from years ago. But then I needed to make a custom sized, simple box for a project and I thought ‘ok, let’s do this’ and got Blender going, watched a few tutorials and after not that long, made exactly what I needed. It was such a good feeling to finally be in control of this amazing tool, and not just printing other people’s stuff for the hell of it.

I still remember when I got my first printer like... dang... like, 10 years ago now? That strange feeling of kind of reprogramming my brain from thinking, "I need to go buy thing X" or "I sure wish there was a thing that did Y" to, "oh, I could just print one!". Was such a cool experience constantly realizing just how much fun and useful stuff I could print! It pretty quickly became just a normal part of everyday life. When I tell someone about something I printed, or they see something and are like "whoaaa, that's 3D printed?!" I forget that it's not something everyone's familiar with. haha.

I sort of took the opposite approach when I hit that "now what?" wall. I'd started with an Ender-5 and fought and fought and fought with that damn thing to make it work. Then I was a very early adopter of the X1C and blew through my backlog of things I *needed* to 3D print in about a month and a half, and then all the things that I *could* 3D print but was trying not to (so I didn't have to deal with that gorram Ender-5) in another month. And then I was all "now what?" It took a while, but at this point I use the 3D printer when there's a thing I need to make. And when there isn't a thing I need to make (or at least, not out of plastic) I'm okay with just turning the printer off. I don't run drill or my ratchet set 24/7, I use them when they're the right tool. Same with the 3D printer. So this is a great video for the person who is "I want to run the printer but I don't know what to make!" But another thing to consider is "maybe turn it off for now, you'll have an idea soon enough."

I totally agree with people learning CAD if they have a 3D printer. I used to make all of my models in Blender or Z Brush, but they were mostly organic/character based models. I have made some mechanical things in Blender, but the more I "get used to" Fusion 360, the more fun the process gets. Making parts that need to interact being designed parametrically is such a more pleasant workflow when it comes to making adjustments and iterations or variations of designs. I still use Blender almost every day for some of it, but haven't opened Zbrush in years.

I recently got a 1mm nozzle and holy smokes is it fun! Those thicc layers are so satisfying! If you can 3d model or want to learn/practice, then go around your home and find one of your most popular items or tools or whatever. Identify a problem with it, and invent a solution for that problem. For example, let's say you have an iphone and the charging cable doesn't stay plugged into it. Hop in CAD and design a retaining device for it. It may take a long time and many iterations, but once you have a product pop it up onto ebay or something. I did this for something else and have made $845 in the last 90 days on ebay with just 1 product. A lot of that is further spent on filament and maintenance and electricity and shipping materials but any profits go right back into the hobby to keep me from boredom. I am not a success story where I don't need a day job, but I am having a lot of fun with it and the hobby is paying for itself!

It seems silly to use a printer to just churn out storage stuff. Yet it is one of the greatest things to use a printer for. As it can save decent money and scale extremely well. I own a legion of electronics components, but buying storage for that is expensive and a hassle. Now i am designing my own tray system with drawers that can hold components/SMD-boxes that would cost a fraction of the price of a professional system, which i can scale as needed for any kind of area. Even exploring the idea of integrating some little magnets in the corners so the drawers anchor themselves to the cabinet a little for easier handling of the entire system without everything flying out. After that. Off to design parts for my big projects. One being Animatronic in nature, the other more like an attempt at toy-making.

ngl i kinda got bored of printing after i did some big projects but only because of the time and how much i had to mess around with the settings and the printer to print stuff right. but now i have a bambu A1 coming and i cannot wait to be able to toss stuff onto it and not need to manually adjust or check everything, that and my ender is an OLD one and im sure the A1 is vastly superior so ill also get better quality prints faster.

I'm disabled and can't afford these print files... I love 3D printing and just got into it but I had no idea everyone sells so much. I'll have to learn how to model again. I used to use CAD in high school but that was long ago lol. I'm glad that 3D printers have become affordable but I feel youtube should make content creators place the AD tag in their video if they're trying to sell you something.

I've got a whole playlist to get you started in Fusion, they have a free license so you should be able to use it to make all kinds of things :) kzfaq.info/sun/PLTCCNNvHC8PC40tcEqaJcgUMb97LNkLIn

@@MakersMuse Thank you but I still feel youtube should require people to mark these as an ad as you're just making the video to sell us a product, just like ads on youtube. It's fair that you sell stuff, you gotta make money somehow.

@@MakersMuse Wish I had know about that last week when I was messing with designs for a greenhouse window opener. That was before I found the commercial mechanism that uses the temperature expansion of oil in a piston to open the window automatically. Was a lovely design.

After 3.5 years of modding my ender 3 It’s pretty close to what I could call perfection for a bed slinger printer, then the ender 3 v3 SE came out….

Organizing: if your printer has time to lean, it has time to clean 🤣 if it's idle, it can always print more Gridfinity bins
