    - But holes are very popular option.

      I read that as butt holes.

    Genuinely fantastic content. I’ve been working on similar enclosures for years at this point and none of these ideas had ever occurred to me. Combine that with the high production value, the fact that there’s ZERO bs to pad the video length, no nonsense sponsor segments for products and services I have no interest in, and no begging to like comment and subscribe at the end- whatever you're doing, I hope it brings in enough value to your business to be sustainable in the long run, glad to see someone doing right by respecting the viewers time and attention.

    I just got my first box of Tangled Filament this week. I haven't had time to print anything with it yet, but I'm really happy to finally have some affordable American made filament!

    I'd pay money to have all these kinds of videos collected into a course. Impressive value per minute going on here, based on real-world experience.

      Slant academy has a nice ring to it. But it would need a lot of content. Maybe colaborate with other makers/ designers/ UA-camrs​? @@slant3d

    One thing I would love this channel to do more is real world manufacturing applications of 3d printing.
    Like other day I saw a 3d printed die cast used in sheet metal forming

    Having a video about using selling price breakdowns/how to optimize speed once we have a winning product might be really cool.
    Additionally mentioning % of failures to have into consideration when checking pricing!
    Love the vids!!!
    Have you guys moved to a different noozle diameter to speed up things? I imagine going from 0.4 to 0.8 would reduce manufacturing time by a lot!

    If you wanna do holes increase the perimeters around those and use washers.

  • @JohanFasth
    @JohanFasth 2 дні тому +3

    And don't use countersinked screws if possible. They act like a wedge just like the clip showed.

  • @eslmatt811
    @eslmatt811 3 дні тому +3

    Great info. Is there a general rule about how much material you want the screw to press on? I usually aim for 2mm.

    • @arbjful
      @arbjful 2 дні тому

      4-5 mm is my choice

    Excited for your videos covering material strength of different filaments! I love these videos I just don’t know how much I’d trust a PLA in a production environment around heat and vibration.
    Would also love a video on enclosures in regards to ABS or CF reinforced filaments.
    I have a P1P with some acrylic sheets enclosing it but there’s visible gaps and idk how worried I should be when printing more toxic filaments.
    Thanks for all the great content!

    • @FlopparaptorPro
      @FlopparaptorPro 3 дні тому +1

      ABS-GF from phaetus it’s really easy to print I have had excellent results on big chunky parts on an X1C and also great results on mid size parts on an unenclosed P1P
      I always use dimafix or magigoo when printing ABS or ASA

    • @FlopparaptorPro
      @FlopparaptorPro 3 дні тому

      To not worry about the toxic fumes use a bento box they are really cheap

    Wow- you really use rough textures a lot are these added in CAD?

  • @andreas11elias

    Great video… just a question… why printing in an angle affects cost in relation to printing it flat? That part was not clear to me. Thanks

    • @KMack948
      @KMack948 3 дні тому +3

      In one of his past videos he went over that, but I believe it had to do with ease of removing the print.

    • @LINDENERGENIE
      @LINDENERGENIE 3 дні тому

      Also with producing a lot of the same, more of the copies fit on the print surface

    • @lajoyalobos2009
      @lajoyalobos2009 3 дні тому +1

      Ease of removal = less potential for breakage
      Designed for slanted orientation = less filament used for supporting material and therefore less waste

    • @daliasprints9798

      Big flat surface stuck to bed means it needs labor to remove from the bed, rather than automated part removal robot.

    • @slant3d
      @slant3d  3 дні тому +6

      Uniform surface finish overall and more automated production
