What questions do YOU have about 3D printing?

Why does this video have only have 7k views? It’s by far the best introduction to 3D printing I have watched!!! Thanks Adam

I don't typically leave YT comments, but I just wanted to say that this video was perfect. It broke down every question I had about getting started with 3D prints and gave direct and useful info. Thank you!

I have spent hours trying to gather this information: Your video explains it all, quickly and concisely, Thank you. x

Tip number 1 don’t quit when you get a few fails

The beginning of the video is exactly how I reacted on how do I start lmaoo

Adam thank you so much for this, I am nearly 70 and have been looking for an intro video for a while and now I have found yours and it is so very helpful. Cheers mate.

Bro, Thank you so much for this video. You literally have made me so excited and happy about my future in life because I know for a fact I'm sitting on a gold mine of prints with an idea I have had for awhile. I've been secretly keeping it close to the vest and tracking google to see if anyone has jumped on it but here we are 1 year later and still nobody has figured it out. I finally got my printer, my filament, and I'm ready to start up but I have no idea how to print it. Now because of you I have the knowledge and power to do so. And because you are my Jedi master, I am going to make you this promise. That when I get to boss level status and Im laying out at Kua Bay in Hawaii while my printing business is a major success, I'm going to hit you back up somehow in hopes you respond and in that moment I'm going to ask you whatever you want in life that I can afford to get you, that I am going to get it for you no questions asked. And Marines are always faithful so I will never go back on my word. SEMPER FI brother and Thank you again.

I just found this video and learned more watching it than I have in a year trying to figure 3D printing out on my own. Thank you!

I’m new to 3D printing and this video seems to address a lot of questions that other ‘beginner’ videos don’t address. Great content.

Nice to hear from someone who isn't trying to be a "guru", and still remembers all the questions a beginner has. I've also waited...can't count the number of brackets and stuff I've made over the years using other methods. Gonna make the leap. Blender is also a great program.

The absolute best introductory video to 3D printing I have found. Thanks for being nice to beginners

Thank you so much for this video! I'm BRAND new to 3D printing (got one as an unexpected present) and I didn't know what I didn't know. I watched several other "for beginners" videos but they generally left me with more questions than answers. Thank you for meeting me at ground level and assuming I had no basic knowledge to start with (I especially appreciated you explaining what a slicer is for example).

I am a teenager who has just started 3d designing and this video was extremely helpful and simple. I am thinking of buying the ender 3 because it is surprisingly cheap and i have been using tinkercad for forever and want to print. Thanks!

Bro this video literally answer all of my questions. Everyone else in their videos would like dance around these topics you just hit them all on target. Amazing video.

I'm really interested in 3d printing and getting started with it. I'm going to come back to this video many times so thanks a lot!

Thank you for this wonderful introduction to 3D printing. I started searching for something like this maybe 2 hours ago and FINALLY enjoyed someone's content.

Thank you Adam, for such a detailed and thorough information. God bless you and keep on sharing your thoughts. It helps us in a great, educational way!! 👏

for new people, an ender 5 plus has massive amounts of upgrades, including corexy, 3 z axis auto bed leveling, direct drive hotend for flexibles full enclosures linear rails etc, the difference is size between the normal plus and pro, i suggest the plus if you like to mod, otherwise go with an flsun sr for plug in and rock working fast for under 450 usd. cant recomend the flsun sr enough, if you have the money go the v400 but for reasonably priced the sr is awesome. just has to print flexibles super slow. hope that helps anyone looking now days

9:23 is the most useful thing for me thank you

Great video, straight to the point and no screaming in the intro 👌

Great video man. Thank you for getting right into it and not spending half of the video talking about your channel and following you. The video is about what want to know. Great job bro!

This is exactly what I needed thank you I've been wanting to get into 3d printing since I was very young and didn't know where to start and what to do I did my research but struggled with finding good software reviews and filament breakdowns so yeah this is a great vid

best 3d printing introduction on KZfaq 👍🏾

3-D printing is such an amazing concept intervention. I wish I was smart enough to figure it out because I see a lot of KZfaqrs making cool stuff using a 3-D printer. Sometimes I wish I was an engineer and intelligent.

14:34 tpu rubber printing. Disable retraction in settings, have a roller spool holder, super easy roller, extra super easy to turn roller. It makes a massive difference. Use at own risk.

I watched a video just before this one. The guy on that video said your printer is only good if you wanna make large items. He said a resin printer are better if want more detail. He recommended you get both. Your kind for large HO scales, and resin for small more detail look.

This is such a fantastic video. Was thinking of getting into 3D printing to make little models I can sell and give as gifts. Looking at the info here though, the possibilities are endless. Your info is so on point and fantastically helpful. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and your expertise🙏🏽🙏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💯💯

One word for this video for beginners..... " Perfect ", thank you!! :)

Your videos are so infectious. I can hardly wait to get started. Thanks for infecting me with 3d Printing 😉

I one thousand percent recommend that a newbie get a pre-assembled printer, and if you plan to use it indoors, one with a case. I originally bought a Prusa-based ready-to-assemble kit because it was reviewed well, I wanted a large print bed but at a small price point, and I consider myself to be "handy" and electronically savvy. It took so much effort to get it to where I could even start printing real items that I gave up, and it sat in a closet for years. When I decided to get back into the hobby, I went online to see if I could get an enclosure for it and found new models with cases on sale for very reasonable prices. I realized it is entirely worth it to spend extra money to save the time and effort of tinkering with it every time I want to print. Would I like a larger one? In theory, yes, but in reality, I don't need it for the things I make.

Great advise, I was sat in my garden and a thought came to my head how does 3d printing work and then found this video cheers very interesting.

So glad I found your video, because you answered all the questions I was too afraid to ask and made it very clear and simple. Thank you.

This video is still helpful. Ive been wanting to get into 3D printing for about 5 years now and am about to purchase my first printer. This was extremely informative and helpful!

"I didn't notice anything and I'm not dead" is probably not a reliable indicator of the health risks of 3D printing (or any other toxic exposure for that matter). It's akin to "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger..." except in reality "what doesn't kill you might just give you cancer and kill you painfully and miserably in the future." This is a worthwhile research topic (and another good argument for camera monitoring of printing!)

You’re a lifesaver! I bought one for Christmas and it’s still in the box. I had no clue of what to do

I’ve been printing for about 2 weeks, but if I saw this before I started, it would have alleviated all my worries and I would have started months ago. Great job!

Been printing a couple weeks now and totally just watched a 50 minute print the entire way

I've been looking for days trying to find a video that explains it without making my brain explode with all the tech gorgon. Thankyou I can't wait to start now 😘

Bro, thanks for this video. This helps me to be at ease. I Just bought one from my nephew who gave up. So I may just make him a gift with it. And encourage him to not give up lol. Take care

This was a direct video that answered almost every question I had. After buying some cool video game related prints I wondered how I could do this myself for a hobby first and maybe a business later. You have a new subscriber . Thank you

This video is ridiculously helpful. Thank you for putting this together, Adam!

5. Build volume can be exceeded by belt printers and others. Any printer can infact exceed its build volume, settings for an example, feed rates.

Everyone should take a lesson from you on how to explain something. After searching a lot, you are the only one that has answered this huge question. I am finally ready to start. Thanks!

I have tried using county supplied 3D printers at the local library and the result 90% of the time has been what the 'expert' at the county terms as spaghetti. At this point I'd rather sculpt what I need than rely upon unreliable technology. Cheers.

Thank you so much for this video, the time stamps, and the information! I've had a 3d printer for a couple months now but it's been very intimidating/overwhelming to start and this was the best and most helpful Beginner video out there. The day I watched your video this week I fired up my Chiron, tried some files and ended up making the makerbot figurine on the first try!

Best video so far on 3D printing, may god bless you, you helped me a lot and saved my time

Thank you for this awesome video. Super helpful 👌 👍

This is ligit the best beginners guide congrats bro keep up the good work

I'm way behind the times I know. But I'm just starting out with this at the age of 66 and this has been the best starting point and will be coming back again and again. Thank you for your insight

I'm partial to Blender3d. It is such a versatile piece of software...the best part is that it is free and open source! It is intended to make production quality movies, so guess what! It is really good for editing your KZfaq videos...just saying. Thank you for another amazing video! KZfaq is always your friend when learning these things! If you're not sure what printer to buy. The MonoPrice Mini Delta (MPMD) is a good budget/plug-n-play/out-of-the-box/low fuss option. (got mine refurbished for $200) If all you want to do is print files from the internet, and not model anything in 3D or CAD, then this printer is relatively user friendly. It does have its quirks, but there is minimal setup and it uses Cura for slicing. There is a really good fb group for MPMD owners that is a gold mine of information. If you end up not staying with the hobby, you aren't out much, and you didn't have to struggle too much to find out. I bought two spools of filament and everything else I use has been from the MakerBox subscription! I heard about it through @3dprintingnerd. I love it. I don't print enough to need full spools ($20-$40 ea) anyway and I get to try out a bunch of fun colors each month ($16/mo for 4 sample rolls of 50-75kg)!!! The entry level "easy" box is only PLA. You can upgrade to another tier and get different materials when you are ready. -Cheers!

Without a doubt the VERY BEST video I’ve ever seen (and I’ve seen a lot) on 3D printing. Thank you very very much.

Been trying to find out where to start for a while now as I work with in a company that has branched into 3D supplies, and want to get involved in it and with the 3D expert. By far the best video I have watched about 3D printing. You're also very easy to listen to and follow

I love the nostalgia of running from one room to another with a disk in hand.

This was exactly what i needed to be able to figure out what to use and what i needed to build different designs and models. Thank you so much

I like the biodegradable materials: you could print some seasonal decorations and then instead of storing them away and trying to remember what box they’re in, you can toss them out and reprint them next year.

excellent crash course. I learned alot just by watching this video! Thank you!!

Thank god for this guy

Great Job Adam. I am printing my first test object on my new Ender 3 as I watch your video. Thank you for the great information. I am also an RC guy with fixed-wing and multi-rotor aircraft. One of the things I wanted to do is be able to make parts for my aircraft when needed. Look forward to more videos.

Don't normally leave comments but thank you this was very informative without being overwhelming and answered a lot of questions all in one whilst being clear and engaging

Bro there's no way im not subscribing to your channel, way of say thanks 🙏

Ender 3 v2 purchased with 4 spools of PLA. This video was so helpful. Thanks

Knew absolutely nothing about 3D printing, very well presented and explained, thanks for sharing Adam.

I'm looking into 3D printing as of Jan 2021 because I need a hobby, and it's one that can both be fun and useful. I can augment or allow electronics projects I have in mind or come across and want to make but need a custom part for. The hardest part will be the slog with the software (my nemesis). Much thanks for the intro video and printer recommendations.

Well, guy , you have given me good information because I am a beginner differently. Thank you !

I've been searching for this video that will introduce me to the world of 3D printing. Thank you so much. Now i know what to do now.🥰🥰🥰🥰

I just bought the Creality Ender 3 Neo 3D Printer coming Saturday from Amazon and have a Dell PC and Laptop that has windows 11, very high RAM memory and it is the 64 bit anyways sure needed this video thank you so very much

5:50 you can ask someone who has a pc and cad to draw a stl or similar file. Remember desiging it yourself does not give you the right to sell that print.

Many many thanks Adam, very helpful uou summarized all of it. God bless you

Wow! I am a complete novice! This video is certainly a fine place to start....even if IT IS FOR BABIES 🥳 😊 I shall subscribe and learn 👌

6:38 if you ever intend on making commercial gain or selling the, Sell print, Sell stl copy, Sell licensed thing ownership. You need a cad that allows commercial use. It may cost to buy most likly mine years ago was 500 bucks or so. That was quite a while ago. That was sketchup. All cads vary and some are good for organic curvey shapes and others more for line drawings.

Researching 3d printer options is overwhelming. I am glad I came across your video. It has all the information I needed. Thank you!

Thank you! While I bought a printer (actually two now) before watching this video, this is great! This answered a number of questions that I first had and is a good recap of the basics. Wish I had seen this before I bought anything.

Aw man, this was a great video! Thanks man! Good edits! You da man 😎🔥

everything you say at the beginning is everything im asking!

Wow! Thank you! I purchased a Creality ender3 about a year ago.. it’s still in the box… you get me. I can take it out now and actually know how to get started. Thank you! ✌🏼✌🏼

The best video for beginners like me :) Thank you 🙏

wow a fantastic job i to have hesitated to jump in and u pushed me over the top very well done thanks for your effort !!!

SUPER helpful! Thank you! I also have waited years to get into it and decided just very recently that I'm gonna pull that trigger. You have cleared up everything that I can think of so far. thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Thank you. Just bought one and came straight to you

Love your teaching style and sense of humour! Awesome video and crammed so much info into this newbies brain! Thanks Bro! 😎

Thanks for all the great information! I just bought my first printer and am excited but overwhelmed with all the possibilities!

im 13 years old and i have no problem whit fusion 360 it was very easy to learn.

Nice model plane decor👍

Great video dude! Very to the point and hit all the right questions...haha.

Outstanding video man! This took all the anxiety away from having to learn all this information. I'm part of a facebook group for 3D printing, but it got overwhelming real quick.

thank you for the vid, just bought a 3d priter myself and found you vidio was super helpfull.

Years ago,I bought the tarantula,Da Vinci and mono brand new and have not yet used them. In all honesty I can't figure how to use them. Even bought brand-new labtops for them. Even got fission. Shaking my head... But I am back at it again.

Just what I needed, just waiting for my printer to come and you’ve answered just about everything I needed to know. Many thanks for the hard work

So helpful, thank you so much

Thank you very much. You are the only ones who held my attention the whole time during the video. It’s very instructive and I was amazed at how you managed to capture so much in one video. All praise, you are great, thank you very much and just keep it up. you have my support. ❤️👍

Fantastic video! Been looking at printers and finally pushing myself to get into this. This video answered all the stuff I couldn’t find elsewhere!

Very informative video man! Exactly what I was looking for thank you.

Well done mate, great video. Thank you 😊.....plus no adverts 👍 brilliant!

Thank you Adam. This is the perfect one stop intro for us newbies!!! Thank you

Awesome tutorial, thanks for giving specific examples and links. So many vids out there listing 10+ printers varying from $200-$2000 in "no particular order" and saying thanks for watching. I actually have a starting place now, cheers man.

Comprehensive and easy to understand great video! Wish all on youtube were this good

Thanks for this. As someone who is thinking about getting into 3D printing, I found it useful.

Thank u so much this what I been looking for the best video for beginners 3D printer thank u so much again

Great video. I had no clue where to start or what was what. Thanks for sharing
