    I think this is exactly why several states are trying to pass laws to basically kill the 3d printer market… It’s never about safety, it’s about right to repair.

    I really liked the video and the way he explained the process. Loved the tip about using translucent/white PLA in the first few test prints and making marks with permanent markers.

      Apparently the legality stuff is iffy according to YT comments and the tips in the video should not be construed as legal advice.

        Firstly, never take legal advice from youtube or even here. And it’s very unlikely you would ever be caught doing it as long as you don’t sell the parts. Nor should you ever reverse engineer life threat level parts. Because you ain’t that smart or good. And if you are that smart, you know better than to do so.

    Damn this was the best video on the subject. I could find zero faults with his method.

    I love how he did the thin slice method to check all the numbers. I love how he wrote all over the prototypes. I love how he called out specific checkpoints to revalidate.

    Perfect tutorial. 10/10. No notes.

      Agreed. One may be able to use a scanner to avoid pains making quality pictures.

      Zach Freedman always has quite thouroughly thought out videos. Not always interesting for me personally, but quite a few bangers.

      And he launched Gridfinity into the ecosystem it is today.
