Thanks! It takes a bit of fiddling to get it dialed in, but it's definitely a nice thing to have. So far it's mostly been great for small items here and there. It's nice to be able to print what you need, especially if something needs a little customization or adjustment.

I have been working on learning, but people shouldn't let CAD be a hold up. There is so much on Thingiverse that people can easily get started with very basic slicer and printer knowledge.

Hey, how are the parts for the car coming up? I am doing the same to my 1972 Camaro, hoping to combine fiber glass, 3d printing and carpentry to create unique interion.

I haven't gotten to designing any parts yet, but I have printed a few more things. I just added a Vacuum gauge to the Blazer using a 3d Printed Gauge Pod. Hoping to get some stuff designed soon, and get another video out on it. I would love to get into making some carbon fiber parts as well.

I'm getting this exact one later this month I'll use your link also. Question is this big enough to make hood vents like the ones for g8s ?
@VHickleGarage
Жыл бұрын
Much appreciated! I do not know the dimensions of the hood vent for the g8s, but my guess is the standard ender 3 is probably too small. I installed the Ender Extender 400 kit on one of my printers. That may give you enough print area. It increased to 400x400mm, or 15x15 inches enderextender.com/collections/ender-3-pro-kits/products/ender-extender-400-for-ender-3-pro

Thank You. If you've already got a 3d printer, then you can either find published files on Thingiverse or Thangs. If you're trying to make something that no one had modeled before, then you'll have to do the 3d design yourself. I am no expert with design/modeling but I do have another video detailing my process for recreating some window trim pieces for my S10 Blazer. You could also pay someone to do the modeling for you, but I don't have any experience with that. Just remember that most 3d printed parts have strength and temperature limits.

I would certainly encourage it! Some of these Ender 3 variants can be had for closer to $200 now. Although the more you spend the less you'll probably have to worry about setup and upgrades. Just depends how much time you want to hobby aspect of the printer itself. I'm nearly 4 years into 3d printing and still have at least one printer going pretty regularly.

I’m about to start 3d printing car parts. Any advice about the best and easiest software for designing?
@VHickleGarage

Tinkercad is the most basic, and probably easiest to use. I've used FreeCAD a little, but I've only really played with those two. I keep meaning to find a better one and really committing to learning how to use it well, but I've been busy with a lot of other things lately.

Great vid. What was your reason for getting an open build 3D printer vs the enclosed one? Or did it matter to you? I myself am considering the onyx one.
@VHickleGarage
3 жыл бұрын
Thanks. I got the Ender because it was a good price and it just seemed like a good printer to start with for me. Open frame should only be a problem with materials like ABS that could warp. I haven't tried printing in ABS yet, but if I do I can always build an enclosure.

Question do you need a computer to print or is that something you just install a file through usb drive
@VHickleGarage
2 жыл бұрын
You'll need something to get from an STL file to the G-Code file the printer needs. But as far as G-code file to the printer, it can be SD card or USB. There probably a way to do that with a phone. I have a Raspberry Pi running octoprint hooked up to my printer though. I use Cura on a good computer to create my Gcode files.

I still don't understand how to tell the printer how to make the part, do i have to buy a cad program and learn how to use it?
@VHickleGarage

If you're using an existing design, such as a file from Thingiverse, then you need to load it into a slicer. I use Cura, which is free. The slicer outputs a G-Code file, which is the instructions the printer needs to work. If you're trying to design a part from scratch, then you'll need some kind of CAD to create the 3D object file that you load into the slicer. I have a video where I did that with some Window Trim. There are a few free CAD options as well, like Tinkercad. Get a Slicer first ,then download a file from thingiverse to print. Once you get that down, then start playing around with CAD for customization and design.
