[2752.34 --> 2754.58] to include in the project. |
[2754.96 --> 2756.74] So looking forward to getting that one done. |
[2756.76 --> 2759.80] But I think as you start with the hobby, |
[2760.00 --> 2763.16] you find just, you know, things that you can print online, |
[2763.28 --> 2764.12] things that are useful. |
[2764.86 --> 2767.42] Then you drift into kind of designing things. |
[2767.66 --> 2773.20] And the next thing you know, you're just absolved in it, I guess. |
[2773.24 --> 2776.66] It's kind of like a drug addiction to some extent, right? |
[2777.22 --> 2779.74] Maybe a drug addiction would be cheaper at times. |
[2780.16 --> 2781.02] At times. |
[2781.20 --> 2782.18] I mean, at times, right? |
[2782.44 --> 2783.24] Like maybe. |
[2784.00 --> 2786.66] I wouldn't imagine over the long term, right? |
[2786.76 --> 2787.64] Maybe short term. |
[2788.14 --> 2791.90] But like, you know, like Drew said, buying the upgrades and upgrading the thing, |
[2791.98 --> 2794.30] you just kind of get into this something. |
[2794.44 --> 2795.16] I don't know what it is. |
[2795.20 --> 2799.00] It's like this thing that just pulls you forward to like, |
[2799.10 --> 2800.58] let's make all of the things. |
[2800.58 --> 2802.44] How can I just make this myself? |
[2803.36 --> 2810.06] Instead of just being a consumer and just grabbing the first thing off the shelf that |
[2810.06 --> 2813.34] kind of fits your needs or solves your problem. |
[2813.72 --> 2817.04] It's nice to be able to actually make something yourself to solve that problem. |
[2817.04 --> 2818.56] Totally agree. |
[2818.78 --> 2822.74] An example of that in my life recently, my daughter recently figured out how to crawl. |
[2823.02 --> 2825.90] And so obviously, we started needing to baby proof the house. |
[2826.08 --> 2831.94] So I've printed corner protectors for, you know, things like coffee tables and the outlet |
[2831.94 --> 2833.84] prong protector things. |
[2834.06 --> 2834.26] Yes. |
[2834.66 --> 2836.46] All sorts of little things like that, you know. |
[2836.86 --> 2840.34] Have you printed any little door locks for like under the cabinet? |
[2840.34 --> 2843.62] No, but I think I will need to pretty soon. |
[2843.88 --> 2844.02] Yeah. |
[2844.24 --> 2848.88] I do a lot of stuff like shelf brackets and little widgets to help me, you know, |
[2848.98 --> 2851.62] in the workshop when I'm doing woodworking, that kind of stuff, |
[2851.70 --> 2856.04] like little templates and routing guides and jigs, that kind of thing. |
[2856.90 --> 2861.32] You know, there's just so many, so many little things you can do with it. |
[2861.32 --> 2865.14] There's a great subreddit called r slash functional print. |
[2865.72 --> 2865.80] Yes. |
[2865.80 --> 2868.16] And there's all sorts of great stuff on there. |
[2868.16 --> 2872.28] So if you're struggling for inspiration, take a look at that subreddit. |
[2873.78 --> 2880.14] Have you guys on the note of all of these printers and Alex, I'm sure you guys have. |
[2880.80 --> 2884.20] Drew, have you had a chance to see the new Prusa XL printer? |
[2885.12 --> 2885.90] That's a big boy. |
[2886.36 --> 2887.10] I have not. |
[2887.20 --> 2887.88] How big is it? |
[2888.86 --> 2889.76] It's XL. |
[2889.76 --> 2892.10] I mean, it's not double XL, but it's XL. |
[2892.10 --> 2899.36] But it also has automatic extruder tool head changes. |
[2899.72 --> 2902.02] So you can have multiple filaments loaded. |
[2902.46 --> 2904.88] Like, I think it's five filaments loaded at a time. |
[2905.12 --> 2910.14] And it will just pick the head and pull the hot end and head. |
[2910.14 --> 2916.46] Typically, a Prusa is nine inches tall by eight inches front to back and left to right. |
[2916.72 --> 2916.86] Right. |
[2917.46 --> 2922.20] The Prusa XL is 14 inches square. |
[2922.80 --> 2926.46] Just that's its build volume is front to back, left to right, up, down, 14 inches. |
[2926.62 --> 2928.64] So significantly larger. |
[2928.64 --> 2934.88] And in order to do that, they're charging $2,000 as a starting point for this printer. |
[2935.26 --> 2937.40] Bear in mind, a normal Prusa starts at $750. |
[2937.80 --> 2942.60] And they've got the Prusa Mini as well, which starts at $300, $400, something like that. |
[2942.72 --> 2943.04] Right. |
[2943.14 --> 2944.08] To compete with the Enders. |
[2944.74 --> 2950.68] But like Cheese says, the really cool game-changing feature that they've got on this new Prusa XL, |
[2951.26 --> 2954.30] it's not just the fact that they're changing the heads or anything. |
[2954.42 --> 2956.06] They're changing the whole tool. |
[2956.06 --> 2960.18] So it's five separate, you can have up to five separate extruders on this thing. |
[2960.66 --> 2964.34] So you could 3D print five completely different materials. |
[2964.98 --> 2969.74] So you could have dissolvable filaments, soluble filaments to do supports, for example, |
[2969.74 --> 2972.04] that you could then submerge your print and they would just dissolve. |
[2973.14 --> 2977.20] So there's all sorts of really interesting different applications you could use for that one. |
[2977.60 --> 2983.96] And it has a really neat new bed technology, the way that they've segmented the bed. |
[2983.96 --> 2990.76] So instead of it just being a flat bed, they've segmented the beds, leaving cooling and expansion channels in between. |
[2990.76 --> 3003.34] So that as the bed heats up and expands and contracts, you'll be less likely to have warped pages on the bottom of your prints where they're adhering to the bed and stuff. |
[3003.58 --> 3011.48] A lot of cool new tech definitely coming out from Prusa, which I think is going to set the bar for everyone else going forward. |
[3011.48 --> 3017.58] And, you know, hopefully we'll continue to do this ourselves. |
[3017.88 --> 3020.10] And next year we'll sit down and see where we are. |
[3020.22 --> 3024.92] But I did have a couple of questions for you, Alex and Drew as well. |
[3026.36 --> 3031.84] Do you guys weigh your filament before you put a print together? |
[3031.84 --> 3043.16] So if you know that you're going to have an extended print, do you weigh the filament that's on the roll before you load it into your printer to make sure you have enough filament? |
[3043.30 --> 3046.24] Or do you just cross your fingers and hope that you have enough filament? |
[3046.84 --> 3048.56] I do the cross and clench method. |
[3048.88 --> 3048.98] Yeah. |
[3049.58 --> 3050.02] Okay. |
[3050.34 --> 3053.22] The Prusa has a filament runout sensor, so I'm not too worried. |
[3053.58 --> 3053.76] Yeah. |
[3053.76 --> 3060.08] My upgrade kit also came with a filament runout sensor, which I haven't actually installed yet. |
[3061.04 --> 3070.12] I need to do that, but I also haven't gone through enough filament yet to really make it necessary as of now. |
[3070.84 --> 3071.34] Got you. |
[3071.66 --> 3072.14] Got you. |
[3073.04 --> 3075.46] But, I mean, do you weigh your filament? |
[3075.62 --> 3079.48] How do you measure to know if you have enough filament on a roll to complete a print? |
[3079.60 --> 3082.48] Do you just do the same method, just the cross and clench method? |
[3082.48 --> 3083.22] Yeah, pretty much. |
[3083.22 --> 3084.34] High baller. |
[3085.66 --> 3087.96] You're like, hmm, that's roughly half a roll. |
[3088.74 --> 3090.32] We can roughly get this much out of it. |
[3090.40 --> 3094.76] Well, I haven't gone even through half a roll of any of my individual rolls yet. |
[3094.84 --> 3101.36] I've got like eight different rolls of filament sitting around, and I've kind of played with each of them so far, you know. |
[3102.46 --> 3109.20] If you consider that each roll of filament is a kilo, typically it's a kilogram, that's a lot of plastic. |
[3109.20 --> 3114.66] So you'd be printing something pretty massive in order to go through an entire roll in a single print. |
