  • This is my University project on how unexpectedly beneficial 3D printing can be to anyone at home, and to society as a whole. I had one week to make this video from start to finish (not including research). Honestly, I surprised myself. I hope you enjoy!

    these are my exact thoughts on 3d printing. I got one junior year in highschool. Now im a senior and just wrote my first college level argumentative essay on why 3d printing is an extremely important education tool and why even though they can be used for dangerous purposes (guns) the technology cannot be abandoned. I don't any essay i every write after that will ever come close to being as good as that one

      Same. Also had to write a position paper for my college writing class on this topic. Probably the best essay I ever wrote!

    If a company is afraid their expensive product can be 3D printed, they are selling some cheap plastic thing for way more than its worth.

    Wouldn't call 3D printing guns a bad thing. There is currently a whole civil war being fought against a genocidal government using 3D printed guns.

    • @TheTinkeringTechie
      @TheTinkeringTechie  Рік тому +1

      Yeah, it isn't necessarily the 3D printed gun itself, its how you use it. Use it to fight evil? Justified. Use it to murder someone out of hate? Not justified. 3D printed guns are themselves, tools, just like hammers and 3D printers.

    Firearms are the MOST positive aspect of 3d printing.

      I guess it depends on how you see it right? 3D printers can be used as a tool against authoritarian control by allowing people to print their own defensive weapons. But again, tools are force multipliers. Someone could use it to purposefully hurt someone else. 3D printing is very useful in that it can enable people to do a lot. The outcome depends on the person, though I believe there are more positive uses than negative uses.

      Thesis please? I do not get what point you are trying to make, unless if it is to tread carefully. It may be because of my naivety ;). If you have some wisdom to give, please do so! May help other people too.

      we have reached the limit of how fast and reliable these printers are mechanically,but for software AI can make changes on the fly auto detection things like that and improve the slicer software getting rid of any bugs that humans cant detect.

    Nah, still not sold on them. Too much hassle for questionable benefits.
    If you already have a use case for it that you are rarin' to get going printing, great.
    If you have no idea what you would actually use this for... then there seems to be no point in owning one... at all. I still haven't come up with a use case scenario for myself.

    • @TheTinkeringTechie
      @TheTinkeringTechie  Рік тому

      That is completely valid. If you don’t plan on starting a business for example, then why get it? Why buy a hammer if you don’t plan on making or building anything? 3D printing is pretty enjoyable though, so I guess you’d get the novelty of it at least, though I didn’t talk about that point much.

    • @andreas.grundler

      You know what they say: "If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail". You could also say "If you have a 3d printer, the solution to many problems is a 3d printed object". Most people buy a 3d printer out of curiosity or as a toy and then start solving everyday problems with 3d prints instead of buying something or solving it another way.

      Looking at my order history, about once every month on average. Why?

    • @TheTinkeringTechie
      @TheTinkeringTechie  Рік тому

      Actually, looking at 2023 and not 3 past 3 months, I'd say 3 orders per month. Usually only goes up when I have project videos, like my robodog with arduino's motor controllers, and other electronics. Stuff like that.
