I made 3d printed gift tags for my presents this year, and printed one of those "Our First Pandemic" Christmas tree bauble designs for my uncle's family, since they traditionally have a big xmas tree. All were well received. Also sent a printed bookmark in a Christmas card to a friend of mine.

The puzzle cylinder was a great last minute print. Definitely one to keep around for when needed. Thanks!

If my spouse spent time designing and printing something for me on a 3D Printer, you better bet I'm going to love it, and I do...

I put a cheap LED flashlight in the collapsible lightsaber.

My wife feels the same way about 3d printed gifts lolol. Wasnt a good valentine's day!

The 3D Maze box was PERFECT for my daughter's gift certificates. :-) I ended up printing 2 for the 2 she got from her grandparents. :-) My wife did get a 3D Printed gift. The Aladdin's Lamp from Nikko Industries. It looks REALLY good. I'll paint it and make it look great. She's been looking for a nice Aladdin's lamp for her Disney Movie collection of nick knacks. :-) She was really happy about it. But, I don't print her a lot of things.

Thanks jessy for this video I now know some cool things to print now

Custom 3d prints with electric components, or even a build it yourself set like steam punk mechanical stuff

If you know anyone that eats oui yogurt often, making them lids for the glass containers that comes in could be a cool gift. Especially if they are fans of containers (like many people are). Ice seen several designs out there on various sites for them.

Fantastic Idea!

I thought up the perfect Christmas gifts to print for my family and friends... and then proceeded to screw up the settings on my 3D printer before I could get to printing to them, turning those into "belated Christmas gifts" instead. I totally forgot about the collapsible lightsaber model, though, I think I know someone who'd love one of those... myself!

Those mandalorian look so clean! What settings did you use?

Another great video Grandpa Jessy

Great ideas/designs ☺️ Thanks for sharing 👍☺️

My wife loves personal gifts designed her a phone stand. She loves it

I ended up printing some Christmas miniatures and handpainting them for coworkers! They loved the results. If I end up getting a prusa or elegoo Saturn, I'll definitely print bigger minis and what I've seen in this video. Have a wonderful holiday J! The specific mini I'm gifting my coworkers and friends is a Christmas shroomie, free off of myminifactory.

Printed gifts for your significant other is entirely dependent on what you're giving. I spent the month leading up to my partners birthday making pokeballs and several multi color pokemon, and she freaking loved it.

Hey man, thank you for your videos, which 3d printer and material would you recommend me for a first time if i wanna have it in an apartment without much ventilation if i wanted to make minis and stuff related?

Uncle Jessy. I had a thought. So when you IPA gets dirty from cleaning your resin. Or what ever cleaning agent you use. I have not tried this, but I think I will. Have you ever tried running your left over solution into a portable water filter? Just wondering if you can not only clean your IPA(insert your solution here), but reclaim your solution?

It's really hard to find STL's that people will receive as something more than just a hung of monochrome plastic. This year I'm making custom lithophones, articulated Sheron dragons, egg shaped dragon boxes with screw on lids, and Minecraft earth block boxes with a removable grass lid.

would the Prusa Mini be a good choice for printing item for cosplay like a helmet and or armor? Or is the MK3S+ a better choice? for me the Mini is more in my budget range, and I am also a beginner at 3D printing any help will be much appreciated please and thank you.

To be honest i think the most basic thing is would be awesome gift to because you worked on it did it yourself and made just for him/her by you and that makes it better then buying it in a shop or downloading a file. That saber still awesome. I will get one if i have another filament

HAHAHAHA wonderful idea about the maze!!! Brilliant hahhahahahaa

Do you have the settings you used for any of these prints or a video to help with settings? I just got a mega zero 2.0 and having a hard time understanding the settings using ultimaker cura. You have real Smooth prints with barely noticeable print lines. 🙏🏻

Analysts estimate that a PLA bottle could take anywhere from 100 to 1,000 years to decompose in a landfill. Another issue with PLA is that, because it is of different origin than regular plastic, it must be kept separate when recycled, lest it contaminate the recycling stream.

Enjoy your vids. Just got my first printer last week, a longer lk1. It's been a serious learning curve and took a ton of tinkering to get it to start printing decent. I've found that it prints best around at speeds around 35. Is that normal?

@Evakron

2 жыл бұрын

That's on the slower side, but not too far off average for typical materials like PLA or PETG. You might be able to go faster by spending some time calibrating other printer settings like acceleration, retraction, e-stepping, flow etc.

I feel like 3D printing can fall into the DIY arena depending upon someone's fabrication skills. For instance, these all still have layer lines. It is like using a new lathe to make someone a wooden bowel that has bit marks. You have to really think about the details. Does finish matter? Can you fabricate something as good or better than what you could buy? Are you 3D printing gifts purely for the purpose of 3D printing? The thought is what matters, and putting more time and money into something inferior to commercial alternatives just because you wanted to print something would not leave a good taste in someone's mouth.

I don't own a 3d printer yet but I'm interested in one. Was looking at phrozon transform. What do you think you obviously know alot about this machines.

How on earth can you get that Mandalorian to print in 4-6 hours, my Ender 3 is saying 18 hours at 0.12mm? What settings did you use Jessy?

I just got an Ender 3, what do you use for slicing and what settings to get such clean prints? Mine seem like they’re missing parts of layers, have some odd bumps here and there and stringing (stringing mostly fixed by cues but print times oddly drastically increase)

Hey Uncle Jessy I been watching you for a while I just wondering if you know anyone who has tested the MALYAN SLA LCD Resin 3D Printer High Resolution Auto Leveling Wi-Fi Support 4K Resolution LCD Touch Monochrome Curing Screen All Metal Frame Parallel Led Black Larger Printing Size 192x120x230mm. It is a mid size resin printer that seems to have a self filling resin tank. I would really love to see you test it and tell us what you think. Or send a link to anyone else who has may be tested it. I was thinking about buying one and I would really like to see how this thing performs before I spend the money. Thank you and love you videos.

I took it a step further with my brother. He wanted a gift card. So I entombed it entirely inside a print. I look forward to him smashing it open. And my girlfriend loves when I print stuff for her. But then again that's mostly props for her cosplay.

I am kind of upset, EVERY video for 3d printing - ohhh wife doesn't like, doesn't approve, annoyed... I am a wife, and I bought a 3d printer as a present to my hubby, I see your videos, I get into it and I want more 3d printers :) And I am not alone! So stop this male "oh my wife is not cool with it" nonsense. Enough

I am somewhat annoyed by anything related to Among Us right now. Yes, it is a good game but the only reason everyone is playing it and referencing it is for the clout.

I so badly want to justify owning a printer but 99% of the things people print looks like it came out of one of those 25 cent vending machines next to the gum ball machines. Would you honestly buy any of that crap outright? No.
