Video Description

You guys asked for a video all about tools for 3D Printing... so here it is! I hope you enjoy! The right tool can mean the difference between a fun, quick, high quality project 3d printed, and a frustrating hack job you end up doing over again… And while you might not realize it at first, creating a smooth and enjoyable workflow for your 3D printed projects requires a lot more little tools and accessories than you get in the box with your 3d printer. In this video I'm going to share all of my favorite tools for 3d printing with you, as well as what they're used for, where you can get them and much, much more. Plus, you'll even see some exciting 3D prints I've been working on in the video. 🀫 Get my custom filament and printer profiles, buyers guides, and much, much more on Patreon: https://patreon.com/thenextlayer πŸ’¬ JOIN MY DISCORD: https://jle.vi/tnl-discord πŸŽ₯ IN THIS VIDEO: πŸŽ₯ 00:00 Introduction 00:49 Cigar Lighters πŸ›’ https://geni.us/tomolocigarlighter [Amazon] 03:03 Microfiber Rag πŸ›’ https://geni.us/homexcelmicrofiberrag [Amazon] 03:53 99% Alcohol πŸ›’ https://geni.us/solimoisopropylalcohol [Amazon] 04:55 Dish Soap πŸ›’ Dawn dish soap: https://geni.us/dawndishsoap16 [Amazon] 06:18 Glue Stick πŸ›’ https://geni.us/elmersgluestick [Amazon] 08:01 Hygrometer πŸ›’ https://geni.us/hygrometer2pack [Amazon] 08:53 Vacuum Filament Bags & Electric Vacuum πŸ›’ Ataraxia Art 3d Printer Filament Storage Bag: https://geni.us/ataraxiafilamentbag [Amazon] πŸ›’ EIBOS 3D Filament Vacuum Bag: https://shop.eibos3d.com/products/eibos-3d-filament-vacuum-bag πŸ›’ Electric Pump: https://geni.us/sainsmartvacuumpump [Amazon] πŸ›’ Vacuum Bag Sealer Tool: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DczkoaP 09:41 Reusable Silica Gel Packets πŸ›’ https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DBB7jpZ 12:28 Deburring Tool πŸ›’ https://geni.us/deburringhandtool [Amazon] 13:25 Pliers πŸ›’ https://geni.us/kendopliers [Amazon] 13:53 Flat Cutters πŸ›’ https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DEzt7pv (get the dark blue handle) 14:33 Ball-Head Allen Key Set πŸ›’ https://geni.us/ballheadallenkeyset [Amazon] 15:39 Low-Profile Wrench πŸ›’ https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004281058326.html 16:32 3D Pen πŸ›’ https://geni.us/scrib3dpen [Amazon] πŸ”— LINKS MENTIONED IN THE VIDEO: πŸ”— πŸ‘‰ My previous video on 28 3D Printed Tools: https://youtu.be/Nb2JI1upCOU πŸ‘‰ My previous video on 50+ Useful 3D Prints: https://youtu.be/D_pEmQrF7V0 πŸ‘‰ My Playlist of Useful 3D Prints: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nb2JI1upCOU&list=PLNAIMkOXd_V8YIV9LmXRK2-1UIaOao2eR πŸ›’ RECOMMENDED GEAR: πŸ›’ πŸ“ Complete list of 3D Printing accessories: https://kit.co/jlevi/3d-printing πŸ“ Complete list of my videography gear: https://kit.co/jlevi/content-creation πŸ“My favorite thing to 3D Print: https://jle.vi/multiboard πŸ“My recommended electronics & control boards: https://jle.vi/bigtreetech πŸ“ My favorite 3D printing "accessory": https://jle.vi/magigoo | https://jle.vi/whambam πŸ“ My favorite 3D printing filament: https://jle.vi/polymaker πŸ“ Check out the official TNL merch: https://shop.thenextlayer.com/ πŸ“ PLEASE CONSIDER SUPPORTING THE CHANNEL BY SHOPPING USING MY LINKS!
