It's easier than it looks to create one of these for your printer

Sometimes the software can't do what you want but, sometimes the software can do it, and do it very well. Help support this channel!   / needitmakeit  

In this video I'm sharing what I've learned over the past few weeks of creating custom 3D printer part fan ducts and testing them out. At first, few models were hard, the next batch were a little annoying, and finally after many many models, it's actually pretty easy and something I should have learned to do a long time ago. Some of these tools aren't used often because they just don't have a useful purpose, but in the case of these tools, I think there are a lot of uses. Now that we have metal 3D printing as an option, I can see using the method I've shown in the video for exhaust pipes, for manifolds, custom ductwork for HVAC systems, of course lots of 3D printer applications as well. I have to say that these just look amazing as well, not to mention that they're super lightweight, there is no filler, all of the form also the function.

I hope you enjoy the process as much as I enjoyed learning and sharing it with you.

This printer isn't as full featured as the X1C, but it is very capable and very precise. It also has a heated chamber and can reach higher hot end temps.

#2 Core XY - Most features with great results but Pricey $$
