#3DPrinting #Miniatures #BoardGames
Seems like a neat idea - but in execution it means spending something like $150 in filament (minimum) per storage container, plus however many hours it takes to print.
These Omni products don't make any sense. It's an absurd waste of filament and time, super heavy. And very expensive to buy the stl.
$72 usd
$150 in filament...??? How did you come up with that insane answer?
Mostly just for the customization and aesthetics. You can print this out in whatever colors or designs you want for _about_ the cost of a cabinet, and at the exact dimensions you need. It's not meant to be a cheaper alternative to something like an Ikea Kallax, but rather something for when you have a very specific theme in mind you want to use, or if you just have a big printer and like making filament go brrrrr
4:16 "the nuts slide right into the little slot's openings and make it really easy to screw those in place" That's how you convince guys to join your frat house.
Ya know, I'm all for 3d printed solutions, its why I follow channels like this but lol not everything needs to be 3d printed.
Exactly my thoughts, I think it would be easier and cheaper to mod an existing furniture to achieve the same thing.
@@AllanElkaim definitely cheaper considering the cost of filament here in Canada
8kg of filament too, plus a LOT of time
Haha yeah.
@@JaayjeeeI mean to be fair, buy a 10kg deal from Sunlu and you got enough pla for $130. With 2kg extra.
I get the mini storage... And yes! You 'can' 3D print anything...
But the cost of the files.... Cost of filiment.. Cost of printing and the time.... Would it not be a lot cheaper and more effecient just to buy a bookcase?
I personally would never buy this! But.... Make me some acrylic doors designed to work with a 'Billy bookcase' and I'd buy that in a heartbeat! :)
Sometimes we like 3d printing so much we don't even realise how unpractical and wasteful some things are
This looks like an insane filament grave. I prefer solutions where you combine stiff, slim and light standard components with the power of 3d printing instead of trying to do stuff with the 3d printer, where its not the best choice to begin with. That said, if someone wants to have it, go for it.
Seems like a great cabinet that I can get from ikea for a fraction of what you’d spend on filament. 😂
My first thought as well. On my single printer this would take days to print.
Would using recycled materials cost far less? Like water bottles as filament? Or PLA pellets?
@@aleksdeveloper698 Not at all. You have to change them into filament which is a cost too, and for pellets you have to mod your printer so it can use it efficientyl(not every printer is modable for it because of their contruction)
@@bashamo9363 What was your experience? Did it cost more?
This is a cool idea and really is just for enthusiasts. The biggest concern I have is that PLA will start drooping over time so the center rack will bow in the center over time.
Yeah but the problem is that those enthusiasts generally have large collections, making this thing entire unfeasable to print. Just going out and getting the, pretty much standard, Kallax for storing board games looks extremely affordable compared to this...
DIY isn't always about saving money, because you'll often spend more making something than you would buying it. Sometimes, the point is having something that's customized to your exact space or desired appearance. An IKEA Kallax probably won't fit the recessed space in a wall perfectly, so a carpenter would build a cabinet to do that and it would cost quite a bit more than going to IKEA. This solution isn't for everyone, though. Some people are fine with a cabinet that looks too small for the space and will just add some decorative touches to fill that space out.
Jessy reinvents the IKEA Kallax
how long was overall print time and how many printers were you running at a time?
What do you mean you have an abundance of black filament, I never have enough 😂
Didn’t see your video, already got #1 so I’m on there list so I’ve now supported the kickstarter.
I’m going to use it to store my board games and my filament to place under my glass tables that I have my printers on.
Another thing I've come to realize is flat boxes will want to split layers or have visual defects where the layer time decreases (walls) and printing on a 45 decreases the odds of that happening by keeping layer times more consistent.
how much would a cabinet like that cost?
I understand its strength might be its custimizability, but it doesn't seem to offer anything different from a standard cheap cabinet. plus you still need to buy acrylic or glass or plexigalls panels for the doors.
I could buy a cheap one and the create panels or customize it with 3D printing.
it also seems a bit clunky and a big waste of space with such thick shelves and parts.
maybe this solution offers something I can't see, I'd really like to know
I don't seem to have seen you using QIDI Max3 since the last unboxing broadcast, and I was expecting a more detailed video!😍
Where'd you get the doors? They look good
What was cost in plastic and how many hours ?
We don't like this type of questions over here.
about 160 Euro (with 20€ per Spool) and 193 hours for Printing
Super cool stuff!
one way of advertising a kick-starter
How much filament did this take? I know because it's modular there's going to be no set number, but an estimate for the standard version would be nice.
Shoot! I meant to include that. About 4-5 rolls of black PLA, 3 rolls of Purple PLA
@@UncleJessyso ~8kg without side and back panels?
@@UncleJessy so basically $150 in filament on top of the cost of the STL files and hours of electricity?
Kind of a stupid Kickstarter if you ask me lol@@thejoester
I backed the Kickstarter and cant wait to get my files. Can you tell me if all the parts can be printed on a Bambu Labs A1-Mini?
Thats asking alot man.
Ty for making this video. I am looking for 2 1/2 feet of open space type cabinet, and maybe placing another on on top is why this is interesting to me. Not looking at this for games. Wondering if they are stackable.
Can you send or add a link for where to get the screws
How much fillament was needed for this print? Project doesn't share that on Kickstarter...
Hi Uncle Jessy, how large are the shelfs that you are using in the video?
Do you have a video about what settings to use on Cura I just started and every layer my printer stops for a second and creates a small imperfection
I got the Omni 1 and the Omni 2 and still havent printed them because the amount of filament is insane. I doubt I will back this one just because of that. Maybe if I win 20 rolls of filament I will get it lol
@Unclejessy Can you share how much kg of filament you have to used for completing the tower?
I backed the original Omni but I stayed away from the Omni 2 because it was just too insanely expensive and heavy to build. I'm leaning that way as well with the Omni 3...spend a couple hundred bucks on filament for printed shelves or much less than that at IKEA for a bookcase I can repurpose for board game storage? It's neat and the themed options certainly can be a decorative focal point all on their own, don't get me wrong, I just struggle to see the value in it.
Can you tell me the size of one top part plz
Hilariously this is how I joined two kickstarters. but given the freedom to do custom makes worth it, regardless maybe a bit more on cost than buying and attempting to mod normal stuff.
@Uncle Jessy I'm looking to upgrade my ender 3 that I've had the past 3-4 years to a new 3d printer, either a P1S or a Neptune 4 Max. I usually print smaller prints but there are a couple projects where the larger build area would come in handy.... What would you recommend? Thanks!
Where is that galactus file from, its amazing
way too much material. Kallax shelves
Yeah. this has some interesting idea's, but its not a board game storage solution, especially comparing it to the simple Kallax shelving. would have liked seeing something that you could slide into Kallax shelving to improve its storage. vs printing for 1000 hours to hold 10 to 12 games.
@@robertheagy925 Yeah. Some of this is neat ideas, but more of a "yes, and" to existing shelving as opposed to full shelves themself.
The hexagon "add-ons"? Great! Make some thin, printable planks that fit into Kallax shelves and a bunch of accessories that fit those hexagonal holes (like mini half-shelves and the like)
Doors? Great... make some customizable printable doors that can be attached to Kallax shelves.
Soooo sick!
I am just wondering what the maximum dimensions of the parts
How much filament and how many print hours?? 👀👀👀
More money and time than what it would take for you to pick up something for much cheaper at IKEA! 😂
I wonder how much it cost to get Uncle Jessy's endorsement? Seems like he'll put his name on anything.
where can i find that godzilla?
That I believe was a Wekster file or maybe fotismint from a few years back
would love if they did a detolf - I was just thinking I don't want a glass one and would love to 3d print my own. I like their slide in tech and ideas.
Oh man I love that idea. Maybe why I was thinking of a 6ft tall version. I also heard they are going to discontinue the detolf line 😭
@@UncleJessy Noooooooo😢
It would be sick to electro plate one of these.
It cost me 30 euros to make a wooden one.
Size 75x70x40.
Useless project i guess ^^"
The little openings for the nuts...could you just pause the print there and add the nuts then resume?
I’m assuming they would vibrate out as they slide in fairly easily
4:26 Did he just tell me to Netflix and Chill?
TBH Omni projects always make me turn my head. Not only do we have better solutions but the designs are so inefficient with filament use. I was looking at their Omni 2 and was just floored at how much filament it used vs competitors.
That's so cool
But that's also so unpractical
All that time printing, all that money spent on filament when you could just do that in an afternoon with mdf or pallet wood
I am currently a backer… at $45 it seems OK…
But what the heck am I gonna do with it? Without metal rods, there’s no way it’s gonna hold up to the heavy board games I own.
Believe me, I have printed things like the stage top tables, and the number of supports needed is insane. These shelves are not supported in anyway. Their concept arch is just ridiculous.
For $45 I can Jerry rig some metal rods into it … but I shouldn’t have to do that…
I might back out… the survey from that last project I did say something as a suggestion for game storage. And given the fact that they seem totally fine when using nuts and bolts, maybe they could make something good. But given the skill of and no major hardware, this is their first major fail.
Well, I have a quite a few days to back out …. 😢 😅
Is "throw on a movie and get to screwing," the new, less coy, "Netflix and chill?"
I really liked the omni case, but god damn the cost for getting the bundle is nuts. Put me off the whole thing.
Hahaha no.
I have over 200 board games, not counting expansions. There is absolutely no freaking way I am EVER able to print enough storage for even half that 🤣
I really don't understand who this kind of project is actually for. At the cost of printing this, both times and material, just buying a Kallax suddenly becomes very affordable. It's just absolutely impractical.
Uncle Jessy are you G.I. Joe fan?
Just don't add glass to those door hinges.
🤣😂 I think we can all agree on that
This team always uses way too much filament for their projects. I backed the first two because nobody else had a better solution, but that's not true any more.
Backed this lol
"Throw on a movie and get to Screwing".... well........Ok then!
Grifters gotta grift
I can see it being used as a 3d print enclosure as well tbh.
I think that was their last campaign, actually
Sorry, but in ths case I can't see anything but a unbelievable waste of material...
These KS are getting out of hand. Especially this one which is not really anything that we could not just design ourselves in TinkerCAD with some work. Way too expensive. I honestly hope these all fail so this stuff stops being a thing.
While this looks cool, it really feels like this is a ton of effort/material for what is essentially a set of plastic shelves. Given how heavy so many of my games are, I don't see this as a particularly good system.
Also, your board game collection makes me sad.
I love to 3d print but I don't have a 3D printer 😢
same :(
Lol, throw on a movie.....
This is such a waste of money
Whear could i find go files for free to get
I'm sorry but this thing makes no sense. And I'm a board gamer.
Saturn 3 ultra o mars4 ultra ? Help people!!!!
