I have seen a few others make some nice ones, but so far I have really liked the look of yours, plus it seems like you have it attached to your wall which is something the majority of others haven't done.

Skip #1 & 2, use cold pulls instead. That actually removes whatever is clogging the nozzle instead of just moving it. The electric screwdriver is super underrated in this field, highly agree there.

One of the things I'm glad I did with my scraper was to sharpen it. Not enough to cut obviously. It went from 0.7mm to .4mm (yay calipers!) and made a big difference in getting under prints. Thanks for your videos, they've been helpful!

Took about three measurements as best as I could, averaged the value and rounded to the nearest tenth. Now that I think about it I could've pressed the edge into a paper and measured the indent.

I have acupuncture needles, but what I found works better for clearing clogs are carbide PC board drill bits. Why? Because they're fluted and can actually _remove_ material when twisted into a clogged nozzle, _even if said nozzle is cool._ The only thing to watch out for is to take care to not drill out the nozzle hole - you can oval your nozzle if you're overzealous - but if you're using one to clear a hot nozzle and pay any reasonable amount of attention to what you're doing this is rarely an issue. (I also run 0.6mm hardened steel nozzles and my cleaning bits are 0.4mm, so it's a little harder to accidentally modify the hole.)

Wood chisels - great for cleaning off support material from surfaces, especially flat surfaces. Can pick up a set of small ones (1" / .5" / .25") for pretty cheap.

Heat guns have many general shop uses and really benefit from a stand so you don't have to waste a limb holding the heat gun. The small one you show would be easy to make a variety of stands for. My workbenches have steel tops or steel sheets so I'd use a magnetic base (as use for dial indicators etc) which are quite versatile but you could certainly print one then insert a rare earth magnet in the base. A hot air soldering station (a very small precision heat gun) would be worth experimenting if you already have one.

Wow, you are so good!! And you know it yourself...

Another must-have tool: a full set of long, metric, T-handle, ball-end, hex drivers - 2mm-8mm will cover just about everything on just about any 3D printer with a print area smaller than half a cubic meter. Ball-end and long length lets you get into tighter spaces, T-handle gives better control over torque. (Just remember to scale your aggression to suit the size of the screw so you don't snap the head off. M3 screws don't need multiple hundreds of newton-meters of torque.)

Also, little tip I learnt with digital calipers. Use an SR44 battery instead of an LR44 battery to have a more stable voltage across which means more accurate readings.

14:50 I tried the hot glue on a warping ABS print on an unheated bed. Yeah... The glue adhered the part so well to the bed, that eventually the warp spread to the soft-magnet flexi-build plate, whatever it's called. And the whole plate warped off the moving assembly and failed. But the hot glue worked! I was thinking about printing clips, but I think basic binder clips would work. Just clearing obstacles if the handles are removed.

The soldering iron you linked isn't the same as the one you showed in the video?

Could you tell a bit more about using soldering iron to insert magnets into the prints? As far as I know this metallic one's you showed, called neodymium magnets, are quite temperature sensitive and can lose most of it magnetic strength after being heated up around 80 Celsius degree. I'm really interested how you manage to do it.

@thenextlayer

Жыл бұрын

Yep, you have to be SUPER careful with the magnets, which is why I suggested an adjustable heat soldering iron. You also need to be FAST. If you do it in 1-2 seconds, you can keep the magnetism

@OddlyIncredible

Жыл бұрын

If you're working with rare-earth magnets, you're usually better off to design a hole or dimple for the magnet into the print and use a glue of the sort shown here to adhere the magnet onto/into the print. This neatly sidesteps the risk of overheating and killing a magnet, which sufficiently hot filament can do even if you're quick. Also, a hot nozzle printing over a small neodymium magnet can heat it enough to kill it, so be careful about embedding one into a print.

How did you did the pegboard behind you

you can clear the white thing from superglue by aplying a little bit of olive oil after it is stick

why you don't pause print to fix that corner print surface?

Cool trick I've pulled with a hot glue gun is to use popsicle sticks to built scaffolding around tall skinny models to keep them from wobbling. Just glue to build plate and model and take it off after the print. Managed to print what was basically a tall wall that was 220mm tall by about 3mm wide out of TPU with this trick. Nice list.

I have a cardboard box that my 2D printer came in, I sealed the seams with tape, and it’s now my dedicated filament trash can, it’s already got about a kilo of filament trash in it.

Pushing a needle into the nozzle pushes the clogging particles away inside, but they usually come back pretty quickly and the clog returns. Better to do a cold pull or two, or change the nozzle and get on with life. The needles aren't really a solution to clogging. Polishing your metal scraper allows it to be safely used on PEI without scratching. Round the corners a bit too and it can be used safely and effectively without scratching the printbed.
