Thanks everyone for the kind words! It’s good to see a hard project like this is well received. You make everything worthwhile!
And if you are interested, I was using PETG material on my LULZBOT 3D printer. PETG material is stronger than PLA, and although PLA surface finish looks nicer, PETG is not too bad either. My initial prints were done with a setting with lower temperature, which made the layers not stick too well. So I raised the temperature for later prints.
is good to finally see you using a 3d printer
i can hardly believe it worked. now we wait for china to clone and mass produce this.
You need to turn this into a toy for children.
That was super nice!
VARY THE AIR FLOW!
downvoted for clickbait. if it wasnt for the click bait title, video itself was good.
Holy cow! That was amazing!
Now i want to build one 0.0
Great job, Mehdi!
The lesson of this video is, “unless you are a talented, patient, detailed, and skilled technician,… go to college and be an impatient engineer,… then, occasionally go down to the shop and actually learn something.”
The one time Mehdi is able to create something that looks beautiful, functional, cool, and doesn’t blow up
When he said nice… I thought he was going to say WRONG!
