Topics to cover:

Why saying No sometimes for new projects is good

When to say no vs yes

How to find the right projects

Over working as a cause of not saying no

Why it is important to say no for newbies to 3D Printing

3D Printing itself is not as difficult as you think, but we see a VERY common pitfall in 3D Printing: Design. The tech around printers has gotten SO GOOD, but the learning curve for design is still pretty vertical.

Knowledge bases are seemingly always outdated and getting started is daunting and with programs like @adskFusion changing their UI often, even tutorials a few months old are not very useful.

So, let's talk about this, and how we may look to solve it, because unlocking your ability to #3ddesign will unlock your ability to 3D Print without frustration!

Topics to cover:

Why design is so hard

Limitations

Open vs closed source

Free vs paid

AND MORE!!

Earlier this year we looked at the potential future of 3D Printing for 2023: https://youtube.com/live/OPfES2y0vyE?feature=share

Let's see how I did and what we think is the future of 3D Printing in 2024! With an ever changing industry, the 3D Printing communities will certainly see a shift, but how and why??

Topics to cover:

Multi color printing for the masses

Cheap 3d scanners?

More connected hardware

Dreaded DRM

3D Printers as a commodity and appliance

With 2023 coming to a close it is time we visit the 3D Printers that we liked most this year, why we like them, and how they fit for your needs. Be it for business use or your first 3D Printer, choosing the right one is important. We have tried out a TON of machines this year and figured a good long chat is in order!

It finally happened. After over 3 years of growing my hair out, we shaved it for charity, raising over $6000 USD for the Sanjay Mortimer Foundation! Anyone in fundraising knows how complicated it can be and often how thankless it can be as well, this was just the opposite! I will also be reading and thanking EACH donor personally here on the stream

Join me to talk about what it takes to make a difference, why we chose to do it at SMRRF and more!

Topics to cover:

How this whole thing started

Why shaving my head was the one to choose

Why at SMRRF?

What does Sanjay's family think of it

AND MORE!!!

Patents, a dirty word in the 3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing industries for hobbyists, but as you get closer to professional and industrial, they become a part of doing business. You can use a patent in a way that benefits a community as a whole or as a way to stifle competition and maintain market superiority. Let's talk about how patents can protect innovations and drive growth, particularly for small businesses transitioning from hobby to full-time ventures in the 'making' space. But there are some potential drawbacks, including limitations on creativity and the risk of stifling industry-wide innovation.

Topics to cover:

How patents were originally intended

How patents are currently used

How the PTAB has hurt small inventors

How to use patents correctly

Why patents are often used to hurt rather than help

AND MORE!!!

Topics to cover:

Why reviews are important

How reviews can help and hurt a business

How to ask for reviews

How to obtain customer testimonials

Places to trust for reviews and what to look for
