I watched a few videos, looked interesting, so I signed up for free and gave it a try. Pretty amazing, especially for it being new!
It's far from perfect, but like all other AI that's moving quick, give this a year or so and I think it will be very useful!

I like 3D printing and I'm a novice at modeling.
... but I really enjoy watching people who are experts in their field (programmers, brick-layers, whatever) as they perform their mastery!
So, this is a great combo of things I enjoy. Pretty interesting:
Also, Two Bit Tony has a GREAT OnShape...
Hey guys, this might be a bit of a stretch, but I thought I'd ask here just in case we have some experts:
I'm going to be doing some robust home automation. I've been doing a TON of research, but I'm still trying to figure out a few things and need some advice.
I've mainly used Google Home and...
I'm looking to consolidate all my (and my GF's) various inkjet and laser printers into one big workhorse!
So, I'm beginning my search for a good-quality multi-function color laser printer (flatbed/feeder scanner, copier, printer) that has toner cartridges that are the easiest to refill.
...
I'm glad I was able to visit it just in time!

Well, I guess they are taking it down :(

I've mentioned my interest in the "newer" high-speed CoreXY printers, for example:
Bambu Labs X1 / P1S
Creality K1
Qidi X-MAX 3
etc.
They all seem to have various pros/cons. I like how https://auroratechchannel.com/ has rated some of these printers, and think these factors are pretty important...
I've been reading / seeing videos about the Creality Ender-3 V3 SE
https://www.creality3dofficial.com/products/ender-3-v3-se-3d-printer
The specs look really good, and the price (anywhere from $199 - $220) is incredible.
I think I paid $250 for my Ender-3 V2 and felt like that was a great...
I watch a LOT of youtube videos :)
I went to this event last weekend in SF: https://opensauce.live/
FULL of my fav. youtubers, including some popular 3D printing youtubers. Worked my way up to the front row to see them (and others)
Up close with Mark Rober
Some other famous youtube creators!
I thought this video was cool.
One thing I noticed I hadn't seen before: TWO extruders and TWO hot-ends, feeding into one nozzle!
I've seen lots of ways people get more filament heated and flowing, but this one was definitely new to me!
Well, this happened faster than I expected!
Creality came out with their answer to Bambu Lab's printers!

I have the roll of TPU I mentioned purchasing here: https://www.printerknowledge.com/threads/tpu-gonna-give-it-a-try-any-suggestions-tips-tricks.15358/
I don't use it much... not a lot of use-cases come my way, or I'm still stuck in the thinking "I don't have / can't print TPU".
Well, my GF...

I'm a HUGE fan of the TeachingTech youtuber, and I really enjoy designing with OnShape.
He's done a BRILLIANT job with his tutorial series that I've been following along with:
Here's the 2nd video in the series where he's creating basic parts. I'm at video 4 and have learned some really...
