Have you ever wondered what the company looks like that probably made your 3D printer’s hotend? Turns out there’s a lot more to it than what might be obvious!
OctoPrint wouldn’t exist without Open Source – here’s why!
Gina Häußge is the creator of the popular 3D printer management software OctoPrint – we talk about why and how it was started, how the community and Open Source were involved and how you can safely get your OctoPrint setup on the internet!
LIVE: Monoprice Delta Pro first look and unboxing! (270x300mm Delta 3D printer)
Today we’re trying out the Delta Pro from Monoprice – is it nice enough for a $1499 sticker price?
Will we ever see an E3D v7 hotend? News on the Toolchanger / HAF heated beds / Supervolcano!
On my roadtrip around Europe, I got to spend some time at E3D – in this video, we talk about their newly announced products around high-temperature 3D printing, what is up with the toolchanger (spoiler: it’s about to ship!) and what a future v7 hotend and next-generation Titan extruder could look like!

Making a Topdressing Tool! / Parametric Design in Fusion360 / CR-10
Custom challenges require custom tools! Follow along as I design a lawn topdressing tool in Fusion360 and show you how to use parametric design, print the massive tool on the CR-10 and test it out on the front lawn!
In loving memory of Printrbot
Printrbot closed down without much warning in July earlier this year – together with founder Brook Drumm, we take a look at where Printrbot came from and what happened to the company that started the Kickstarter hype in 3D printing!
Prusa Factory Tour
After Makerfaire Prague, I got the opportunity to tour the Prusa Research headquarter and saw how their popular MK3 and MK2.5 3D printers are made! We also check out the Prusament production line and run into early models of the freshly announced SL1 resin printer!
Update your 3D printer firmware without a bootloader!
I also explain how to burn a bootloader to a 3D Printer that doesn’t have one yet. But really, you might not even need one! Use a USBtinyISP as a programmer or re-purpose an Arduino board you might already have to upload anything even to mainboards that do not come with a bootloader installed.
