design your cool and functional printables
Master your 3D printer and learn how to think as a FFF printer to be able to create everything you want with our 3D print course. Learn everything I know about design for 3D printers and create something even better! The only limit is your imagination!
Learn everything we know about 3D printing in our 3D print course.
Save a lot of time, money and material. All the knowledge of how to design functional accessories and also furniture even from plain PLA that I learned over the past 3 years before we launched our digital store 2 years ago. I will teach you what took us few years to learn. How to design the best shape without supports, what filaments and settings to use and so much more like unique patterns, construction of furniture or rules of printing products for food and drinks.
With our experience you will have more time to create even better results!
from zero to hero
furnish your home with 3D printer
The real power is when you know how to design exactly what you need. The 3D printer is a whole workshop in one box and you don’t need any other tools! We are all unique, have our own needs and we need an exclusive solution! but you can make a lot of mistakes and spend a lot of time why the result doesn’t look so good. In our course you will learn how to avoid common mistakes.
become a digital design creator
Thanks to this technology, we were able to move to the beach and manage the store from Dominican Republic, Bali and from Malaysia. Thanks to platforms where you can upload 3D models, you can immediately start earning from your work. And also new amazing platforms are also being created that will connect customers with 3D printing services that will deliver your design to them physically. We are so excited to work with them to open new amazing possibilities!
Learn how FFF printers works
They melt plastic right? And melted plastic cannot levitate on planet earth. That’s why the Slicers tells you before printing that you need to print supports. But do you really need them? No! You can design it correctly and save a lot of time, material and have a better result.
Theory of design correct shape
Yes, you can actually manage to to print the ball somehow. But the result is not very nice. In some directions it is wise to use a radius and in others it is not. Because it is better to use your result immediately after printing than to start finishing it with sand paper.
Neccessary dimensions you need to know
Different nozzle, different dimensions. You can design for a standard nozzle and standard settings, or use other diameters. And what about scalable printables for all nozzles? What about tolerances between parts?
Construction rules
Design a pencil stand is simple. But how about a stool from PLA that you can stand on and won’t break?
Introduction to CAD modeling in Fusion 360
In case you’ve never created a 3D model, I start the course by showing you the tools in Fusion 360 that I used for most of the products. This software is still free for hobby and non-commercial use, new and cloud!
modeling correct screws, nuts and clip joints
Most people lean towards creating a quick thread. But these are not designed for printing, they are metal threads! And in many cases they will give you trouble. Learn how to make the correct thread that follows the 45 degree rule and the clip joints that you will use to join parts together.
modeling our selected designs
To keep it from being boring you will be modeling our selected products to learn the most of the tools you need.
Materials for the best results
It’s actually not that hard to print something. In compare to milling it is very easy. But if you want your result to be really nice even on a cheap printer, you have to choose the correct material to support the good design and print settings. Because you want to create printables that people ask you about “Is this really printed?”
Slicing your models
Slicers are the most powerful programs that will calculate all printing layers for easilly from a 3D model. And the basic settings with handle most models. But sometimes you get print time in hours and not minutes. And if you print with special materials, you have to change some values.
Design Lights
You can also buy ready-made sockets for pendants or table lights at IKEA. Design lampshades on them and you don’t have to model the sockets. Free 3D models of Ikea Hemma and Stråla are part of the package.
Creating realistic patterns
A rotated zebra pattern is used by almost everyone. But 3D printer allows you to push the boundaries and you can create incredible shapes and patterns as long as you stick to the basic rules.
Design Products for Food and Drinks
Internet is full of speculation about printing and bacteria. What real tests of 3D printed parts show, what materials are appropriate to use and how to design the products?
Ready to learn?
You can download this course so you have lifetime access to it. It is also undergoing updates, in the previous three updates chapters on textures, lights and printing in contact with food were added.
