Sometimes you 3D printed something and wished it was a little different. Some holes are too narrow or things just need to be shorter for example. Then the Modifi3D (Original) 3D print finishing tool comes in handy!

This tool consists of a unit that can be powered through USB. When the red light turns on by pressing the button, the installed tip heats up very quickly! Then you can push it through your 3D print to change what you want. After some time without pressing the button, the light turns off and then the tip cools down. There are four different tips you can choose from. In the video in this article i show you how i used the Modifi3D. I demonstrate it in general by cutting some Dalgona Squid Game cookies.

A quick look at how i use this tool

This tool costs around $40,-. Although i don’t use it much, sometimes i’m glad i have it next to me. I did enlarge some bolt holes and nut cavities while i was building a 3D printed F1 car and cut of some objects in the past. Interested in buying this handy tool? You can shop through my affilitate link on eBay without extra costs. You can read more information about affiliate links on this page of my website.

This article is about a collaboration i started back in 2019. I started to create FreeCAD videos on the AllVisuals4U channel with another channel called Joko Engineeringhelp. He created a lot of awesome spoken SolidWorks and FreeCAD tutorials!

So we decided to collab and created some videos together. We started with a FreeCAD to Blender collaboration. I designed a bottle in FreeCAD and Joko Engineeringhelp rendered that bottle in Blender! I also designed his logo in FreeCAD and 3D printed this. Another video is about injection molding. He designed an injection mold to create a rib design video and i demonstrated how i created the cavities inside the mold. If you want to watch these collaboration videos, here’s a playlist!

A video playlist of collaboration videos with Joko Engineeringhelp

So i hope to make more videos together with him, which is a great way to show some FreeCAD skills together! Curious to the injection mold video he made? You can check it out here too.

And also, don’t forget to check out the channel of Joko Engineeringhelp here! Contrary to my shorter and quicker video style, he made a lot of detailed tutorial videos about FreeCAD and more.

I 3D printed this awesome scaled F1 car without electronics! This model was downloaded from Thingiverse. It’s meant as an open RC model, but i use it as decoration only. How did i make it?

I printed all plastic parts in two different colors, black and yellow. I mostly printed with PolyTerra™ PLA. To create a cool color combination, i 3D printed the dual extrusion parts too. You see the yellow nose has a black top. The most parts can be printed in one single color. You can watch the video i made about this 3D printed F1 car below.

A quick look at how i built this F1 car

So i didn’t use electronics in this 3D print. I found some M3 screws that fitted and for the bearings, i 3D modeled and printed some simple bearings that i created in FreeCAD. These ‘bearings’ were the same size as the ones i needed and are fine when you want to use this F1 car purely as decoration. The wheels can turn smoothly enough! I also made a video tutorial about creating these bearings in FreeCAD.

How i created the simple bearings in FreeCAD

Altogether, i’m really happy with this amazing 3D print! Even without RC elements. Finally, i finished the model with a cool 3D printed helmet with face. I made a short video about this, where you can also find the link in the description to download this helmet. This non-RC F1 car can shine on a nice place in your home or at the office for example. The model is created by Daniel Norée. Visit the web page of the full build guide here. Also don’t forget to check out his YouTube channel. I hope i got you inspired to build some cool 3D prints!

Should you buy PolyTerra™ PLA by PolyMaker? For me it’s a big yes! I love the low price and properties of this filament in combination with the intention of PolyMaker to become more environmentally friendly.

This PLA filament has a matte finish and is very tough, which means it doesn’t break so easily. It’s very bendable in contrast to other PLA i used, which was way more brittle. A big advantage is that removing supports is much easier with this filament! You can watch my review video here!

I reviewed PolyTerra™ PLA myself

If you talk about the pricing of this filament, in my opinion it’s very cheap! A 1 kg spool of 1.75mm filament only costs USD 19.99 in the US and EUR 19.99 in the EU! The box and spool are made out of recycled carton. For each purchased spool, PolyMaker will plant a tree in the region where the spool was bought!

If you want to support me, you can buy the filament through this affiliate link on eBay. Read more information on the Affiliate Shops page of my website.

Is 3D printing worth it? I think this depends on what you want! For someone, 3D printing can be downloading 3D models and printing them at home. While others will really love to design something by themselves and print their creations.

So i think 3D printing is definitely worth it, if you set the right goals for yourself and know what you want to do with it!

A quick video to see if 3D printing is for you

If you don’t feel like 3D printing anymore after just ten prints, your hobby is pretty expensive. Then you can better let someone else 3D print for you. You really have to love the endless possibilities of 3D printing to make if something for you!

I designed this 3D printable chair

So if you can design something by yourself, you will probably get more out of your 3D printing hobby. So i think 3D printing is definitely worth it, if you set the right goals for yourself and know what you want to do with it!
