 Let's try something here!

Today I'm asking all of you (subscribers, YT members, Patrons) for what videos you'd like to see in the near future - and you can vote on it! At the end of the week, I'll add up all the votes from the different platforms and will get to making the top voted one. Patron votes will get factored in more than randos from YouTube 😉

To vote, check the comments below and leave a "like" on the topics you'd like to see - or add a fresh comment if you've got an idea that isn't posted yet. Nothing is off the table here - reviews, guides, experiments, builds,... you name it!

Let the games begin!

Comments

Danny

New Filaween episode(s) - lots of new filaments have come out since the last series and I'd be interested in reviews of some of it, especially the exotics.

Or research corexy and then choose the one you think has the most potential and build it.

Pinkmouse

Time to do a new series on Marlin?

Rod Lane

Maybe a discussion on the most important innovations in 3D printing. What made them important, and what changed for the end user afterward.

Michael Schecker

Using NiCr Sensor with Adapterboard to drive HotEnd up to 380°C. Configuration in Marlin and Repetier

Ðementation

I mentioned this last time when you were doing the basic printing series, what to do with things like when you have a warped bed. Its not basic, but its something which novices could do with learning. Because even the Prusa only has 2 mm of adjustment in the settings so if its a warp past that amount you have to replace the bed, which is tricky if you are on the other side of the world to the manufacturer.

Soundproofing! I'm setting up a CNC and I want to soundproof it with an enclosure. I will do that with my printer first, using a IKEA lack enclosure. Then a custom build for the CNC. Currently looking at double plexiglass window panels so I can also see inside

Papa kannst du mal?

Maybe a Video about how to Set Up Marlin on 32 Bit Boards like skr. And Show Off the differences.

Jason Byars

I would really like to see your current procedure for dialing in print settings when you get an interesting new material that defaults simply don't work well with. Has your approach changed any with more recent versions of Cura or PrusaSlicer?

CoreXY is a trending topic. But is it worth the hype? What does it mean for Joe Average home user? Is it very nice from a technical standpoint, or a true quantum leap?

toms3dp

Ok, great job Patreon - this post was supposed to go online tomorrow, after today's patron hangout ...

Martin Zeman

Videos about how to "SKR, Marlin, TMC,..." is full internet. What about building and tuning let's say Hevo or another CoreXY printer? Something like the CNC you wanted to make series about, just more 3d printing related. 🤔

Pasi L.

Interest to see some quide or experience Duet3d.

Chris Muncy

How about this Tom. You have a brand new FDM printer and no printer profile for your slicer. How would you set it up? From steps/mm to extrusion size.

Eric Atkins

I would like to see you spend some time with Klipper. I'm hearing strong opinions about it but have some reluctance to trade away the Marlin environment I have become so familiar with. So, is it really worth it? What do you lose by ditching Marlin, what do you gain? Maybe one is clearly better for certain platforms, which is which?

Gene & Dena Dahilig

Hi, I just joined on Patreon. How about the state of multilateral printing: E3d v. Prusa MMU vs. Mosaic Palette vs ??? Are there others on the horizon like an HP Ink Jet filament?

Martin

how about a series where you build a printer from scratch with available parts e.g. frame using v-slot extrusions and linear rails, duet wifi and e3d hermea hotend etc. Would also be nice so see the planning, building and tuning process.

Filament Frenzy

I’d like to see you just have fun, print some models you like using filament you like, a model showcase almost!

Travis Good

As an owner of a Prusa Mini, the idea of careful calibration of extrusion is front-of-mind for me. A tutorial on making adjustments, where to measure and make change, and how to determine that filament is flowing properly would be useful.

Steven Knudsen

Would love to see an empirical and quantitative analysis of the effects of print head mass. Obviously, look at direct drive vs Bowden, but from the perspective of print speed vs artefacts. Would then love to see you follow up with the Zesty Nimble (and others like it, if they exist). A good discussion point would be to look at the merits. Have in mind a video like the bed level sensors analysis from a few years ago. That was a great video.

Steven Knudsen

Oops, by "merits" I mean things like cost vs results, limitations that may preclude a certain kind of user from needing or caring about this debate, etc.

Peer Fromme

How about a speed challenge? I saw a Voron 2.4 go over 400mm/s. How fast can consumer 3d printers go with acceptable quality?

Micah Vestal

You should look at OpenFL for Formlabs Form 1+. They are dirt cheap now and print amazingly well when calibrated properly. OpenFL allows you to make custom resin profiles for the Form 1+.

Peter Larsen

I know it's been done before, but an update ovn the subject would be interesting. Talk about common 3D printing errors and how to approach and solve the. From slicing to mechanical issues. How to determine the best parameters for a given print, managing support etc. Things have changed since I started, so something comprehensive that covers these topics would be very useful.

Martin Schoenbacher

Two ideas actually: - First one: Since more and more People starting with 3D Printing, why not helping users to overcome the gap between just printing stuff from thingiverse, prusaprinters, etc. A basic series for F360 with everyday tasks. Maybe even with starting to modify existing models at first. - Second one: Building the cheapest possible and usable 3D Printer like with the Prusa clone 3 years ago.

Thomas Herrmann

Not easy to compare but a direct comparison between frimware like Marlin vs Smoothie vs Klipper would be interesting. Multiple parts with ,performance on the same machine, features, cost, ease of use etc.

Rod Bosco

You’ve probably done this already but for me, getting into a new hobby such as 3D printing usually proceeds along the lines of spending the least amount possible on a “real” but limited feature machine (such as an Ender 3) and adding accessories to make it either behave better or a more serious machine. The mechanical aspects typically don’t confound me but the software side definitely does. Vanilla Marlin is hundreds of lines long and many vendors have their own config files that need to be understood and then selectively folded into the user’s current config files without messing something else up. A series on how to methodically and reliably modify the “invisible” parts of a 3D printer would be awesome!

Kurt Wubbels

I'd like to see a series where you focus on a specific type of user and recommend a good fit for their use case -- ( ie. I'm a cosplayer, I want a large format printer, willing to post-process / I run an etsy store and sell my own designs, run a small print farm, need reliability and ease of management / I'm a quadcopter hobbyist building custom parts for my rig )

Thomas Gulholm

I vote for more "Toms Guide" on setting up specific functions in Marlin 2.0.x - not too specific on hardware but mainly showing where/what needs to be changed in the source file, explain what the changed parameters means and give a few common examples. I would especially love to see how to set up for multi-material - including what needs to be configured differently for multiple-hotends and "mixing extruders" (or whatever they are called when the two filaments is printed by the same nozzle).

Creat

I'm unsure how fitting this would actually be for the channcel, as it does not have a certain mass-appeal (as far as things have mass appeal when considering 3d printing). I'd love to see more on different printer styles (comparisons of prusa-style, core-xy, delta) and specifically custom builds if possible, but that might not be feasible to do for a one-shot video and might require whole build series to be worth the investment. But builds on custom printers like HEVO/HevORT I truly would love to see.

Michael Southby

I would be interested in learning how to set up an STL file of an irregular object with a soluble support interface that enables a really good finish to the supported surfaces. My experience with using one filament for object and support is a fairly poor finish

Dennis Dickerson

Tom, engineering filaments (carbon and glass reinforced nylons and carbon PETG are becoming more common. But they come with their own challenges, not least of which is easily removing them from the build plate without damaging either the glass or the print itself. A series of videos covering different filaments, bed treatments and perhaps build surfaces would be extremely valuable. The results can be very practical and durable end user parts. For testing removal techniques, I would suggest an impeller with a large base, such as https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2426666

Richard Hall

How about a list of proven mods for Prusa I3 printers that definitively improves print quality? Seems to me there are a lot of Prusa printers out there and the MK2.5, MK3 and MK3s have hundreds of mods. The question is which of these really improves print quality?

luke harrison

Keen to see something from you on the BIQU BX. Looks pretty different to anything else on the market in terms of the extruder, motherboard and pi integration.
