Just a quick video tutorial on how to fix the issue of your 3D printer's build plate not heating.

In this video I go over the importance of replacing worn out nozzles. Nozzles, especially brass ones, wear out and lead to ugly prints. Examples in this video of before and after prints are using the exact same G-code, the only...

In today's video, I give some quick tips to people who may not be super experienced with 3D printers.

In this video I test out some of #Cura 3.2.1 experimental settings including Coasting, Fuzzy Skin, and Tree Support.

Having difficulty reaching or maintaining a temperature on your 3D printer? Here is a quick tutorial to help you run your PID autotuning to correct it.

In this video I play around with honing in some of the support settings for #PLA offered in #Cura.

In this video I explore some of the PETG print settings for Cura including printing on a Bowden and Direct Drive, speed, retraction, support, and much more.

In this video, I see how you can change the overhangs that are possible without needing support material with some slicer settings tweaks.

I'm back after a month hiatus attempting to fix a layer skipping failure that kept occurring. Watch as I go over the methods I use to attempt to diagnose and fix this problem of layer skipping on my machine.

High tech x-ray scanning equipment has opened up a whole new world to scientists studying delicate specimens such as fossils, skeletons and ancient manuscripts. It's called "high resolution X-ray computed tomography," and it essentially...

In episode 65, Jordan and Charlie explore how a smartphone can hack a 3-D printer by measuring leaked energy and acoustic waves. Despite features such as encryption and watermarks, researchers at the University at Buffalo have found...

In this video I test out E3D's large 0.6mm and 0.8mm diameter nozzles by testing out their ability to print in low and high layer heights.

Are you ready to move beyond paper circuits and squishy circuits? This is a great intermediate circuit project where you will build your own working night-light. And of course, you will have some fun decorating it!

I decided to work with Cura's new 2.7 software and test out their experimental ironing feature. This ironing allows for a great top surface quality on 3D prints with flat sections.

In this video I test out E3D's 0.15mm and 0.25mm diameter nozzles. I also compare these fine quality prints to 0.4mm and 0.6mm diameter nozzles

In this video I take a look at Cura 3.4.1 experimental settings including Adaptive Layers, Spaghetti Infill and Mold Making.

On a "Trash Walk" in Bali, Greg and I learnt that plastic trash has a value and can be sold up the chain to be recycled into new plastics... BUT we also tried something a little different! Using the Precious Plastic open source machinery...

Patrick O'Neill, Marketing and Communications Manager at CASIS, talks about the part of the International Space Station designated as a U.S. National Laboratory, what that means, and how CASIS manages research from all over the world...

The American Dental Association recommends that people brush their teeth at least three to four minutes a day, but now a company called Blizzident is marketing a device of the same name it says can achieve the same results in only six...

Science can do some pretty amazing things. But it can also do some pretty creepy, disturbing , and downright odd things. Here are 10 Weird Body Transplants that you can't look away from'

A three-dimensional, digital representation of an object created with a computer and then sent to an inkjet printer that builds the prototype in three-dimensions. This innovative tool is giving scientists, engineers and backyard...

Thanks to everyone who participated!

3D printers use some material (such as plastic) to create a physical object from a 3D model file. This episode explores the concepts in 3D printing and provides examples of software for controlling the printer output. This clip is from...

This is part 2 of an ongoing series for those brand new to 3D printing. Here we will be exploring one of the most important parts on a 3D printer - the extruder. Extruders mentioned: Standard non-gearedf='httpgearedzn.to/2C5JtnO'...
