This is full of great advice. Sadly, most videos I see focus on printing speed and very rarely is the focus on print longevity or efficiency. I don't care how quickly I can print it off if i have to keep reprinting because they keep breaking. When it comes to print placement I spend more time orienting them for the best balanced between strength and minimal filament use. If a print take twice as long but uses 1/3 the plastic because I don't have to use supports, and lasts a long time I consider that vastly superior than the fact that I can shave 15 minutes off of the print time.

I agree, I would much rather have a good print that does what is supposed to versus a fast piece of wasted plastic. I run my Rat Rig much slower than many people, but have far fewer bad prints.

I design built in supports all the time, especially for long overhangs with an angled surface underneath. Another great design is to add bridging surfaces for a part that houses hex bolts. Normally a floating circular hole not touching the build plate needs supports. But you can add two bridging surfaces that touch the edge of the circle on 4 sides and now it is printable without supports.

You can just make the first layer have no hole at all. You'll have to push the bolt through it the first time, but that's easy.

This is the kind of stuff that keeps me up at night - designing complex functional models in my head, until I pass out and forget everything by morning. The topic of mechanical joints and clasps could be talked about/discussed/improved upon for an entire YT video series and I'd be glad to see the kind of knowledge that came out of it in the comments. Thx for the vid.

I watch your videos since a while. They are always informative or at least entertaining. But what I realy want to know is how do you control your print farm? I can't imagine that klipper is scalable in such dimensions. So what's the thing to get access to so many printers from the far? Kind regards.

maybe better solution would be a long bridge to the other side here. extend the lower part of the pin horizontal to the other side. this will be way more stable and only 1 layer thick that easy breaks away. prints way faster to. one bridging vs a 1 mm hick column.

I'm surprised that the idea of putting the tab at a 45 degree angle isn't also here. Is there a special reason for that? I'd imagine that it'd combine the benefit of better integrity with the ease of being printable without supports.

In your previous video "The truth about 3D printing" you said one of the misconception about that technology is 3D printing is "crappy","not strong enough". Now you say tabs can break between the layers, which never happens with injection molding because Injection molded plastic is high density and isotropic, wile 3D printed parts are not. This is not an opinion, this is Physics. Please clarify : are 3D printing parts as strong as injection moulded parts at the same thickness, whatever the shape and orientation or not ? Besides the promotion of your business technology, your followers would appreciate clear and honest words. In some applications, 3D printing can challenge injection moulded parts, but not in every application. This fact is totally untold in your videos. A video explaining what 3D printing mass production can't produce will be appreciated, because you (probably falsely) give to your audience the feeling you are not aware about your business field of performance, which is not limitless, like any business, and about the limits of the FDM 3D printing technology. Your words were more realistic when you talked about the amount of parts printable per month, for example.
