Join me in this video as I briefly show you how to get from a CAD 3D model to a physical 3D object. After we have covered the How I will then show you what I have been printing for my workshop and why a 3D printer is an essential tool in anyones workshop.

Think finger holes. As seen on cheap blister packaging, create a finger sized concave dimple on the either sides of the cavity that holds the tool. Makes it easy to prey the tool out from the front.
Yeah that is a great idea, I might add that into the design as a revision update for if I print again. Thank you.
A 3d printing series would be great. I need to do the same things with tool storage! Great channel!
Thank you glad you enjoyed I think I will be doing a series on fusion 360 and 3D printing.
Nice additions to your storage solution; as an aside (Const.critique) Joe look at the lens when talking to viewers, not the viewfinder/screen as it looks like you're talking to a wall offside the camera. Never the less I enjoy watching your videos each time & looking forward to your next one.
Yeah I’m always trying to remind myself to look at the lense I’ll get there one day:) thanks for the comment.
Cracking video Joe. Like the new look too👌
Cheers Dazza, yeah I know a good barber 😜
Hi Joe, I definitely think 3D printing has its place in a home shop, and would like to see more!
Anything that can assist with storage especially in a small shop is great and the great bonus with 3D printing is that it is a much cheaper alternative than using other materials to get exactly the shape you want. The same is true of small jigs and tools to assist in a set up for example. One is really only limited by their imagination.
The thing I am struggling with is learning how to use Fusion 360, an excellent program but very intense!
Keep up the good work,
Regards Tony
Hi Tony yeah completely agree with you in regards to the 3D printing. I think I am going to do a series of videos on using fusion 360 hopefully it will help some people.
@@MachiningwithJoe thanks Joe it will certainly help me! 👍😃
Some great ideas there Joe. I like the shallow gear tooth cutter holder, might dust off my 3d printer and make one!
Cheers Ian
Yeah I’ve found a lot of these import tools don’t come with storage so little bits like these are really useful.
A series of how to would be appreciated. Thanks for your teaching and time. Regards Stephen in Australia.
Thanks for the reply Stephen let’s see how many people are interested and if enough people then I will do a series.
13:00 that’s actually a pretty good idea. I make a few things in batches that I might not make again for a few months, often I forget the order of operations or specific cutting depths etc.
Yeah for me having these little work instructions are well worth the time for repeat work. Making the process as lean as possible is important when doing batch work in a small workshop.
Good video Joe but you lost me somewhere around Slice, Don't worry too much, I'm a quick study, it also might help if I had a 3D printer and time to play with it, but I intend to learn first then buy what I know I want.
Good to see the hair coming back in, Heading away from Dr Evil and tending toward Jason Statham😉😁
Cheers from Down Under
Cheers Bob glad you enjoyed the video. Maybe if you buy a printer in the future you may look back on this video for some inspiration. All the best.
Great video 👍. I’m interested to know what printer and filament you’re using. I brought a budget Ender printer a few’s years ago and had endless issues dialling in settings and levelling etc.
If Joe decides to do a vid on 3D printing, I'll jump in and help, if he wants. I have 3 Ender pros, and they never skip a beat. Levelling is a simple affair, but I use feeler gauges instead of paper to get the gap right. The best filament I have found is POGI PLA. Its only 12 quid and works a treat. I use PLA on everything, all I do is adjust the infill to suit whatever application I am trying to achieve.
Hi Mike so I’m using a Bambu Lab X-1 Carbon, and I print mostly in either PLA , ABS for PA-CF.
Nice video Joe, I’m going to take some of your ideas for my shop as well!
I was wondering if you’ve tried the 3D printing capability inside Fusion360’s Manufacturing tab?
Cheers
Thanks for the video glad you enjoyed. I have to admit I haven’t used Fusions tab to 3D printing for me I’m not sure what more it can bring to my designs other than topology optimisation but I think that is a plug-in you have to pay for.
@@MachiningwithJoe yeah, that’s what I was wondering about. I use the same slicer as you do now. It has all the features I need plus more honestly so I didn’t see a need to try Fusion for post processing. Can’t wait for the next vid!
Joe. I feel that you have started in the middle and not at the beginning. Any would be 3D printereer, will be absolutely terrified at this. I struggled for 6 months to get my head around all of this, as the majority of seasoned UA-cam 3Ders assume you know everything and make it look daunting, when in reality its a quite a simple process. Show people from the outset. Start with drawing a simple object, add some rounded edges, holes and cut outs. Export it to an .stl file. Open the .stl with a slicer and just run through the quality stage first. Then print it. Please dont take this as a criticism as I appreciate what you do, its just an observation.
No I completely understand Neil, people who have never seen this technology would be mind blown. For me this video was about giving you guys an overview of how 3D printing can benefit the home hobbyist. I think if enough people on this channel are interested I will do some follow up videos.
I have to disagree. This channel is a machining channel, not a channel for 3d printing newbs.
@@sjv6598 I didnt realise you did 3D printing?
@@neiladcock8382 neither did I.
