This has inspired me to dust off my sketchup plans for redoing my garage workshop layout, and redoing everything to be multiples of 42mm 😂
Ooh, I'm doing the same, so we should share notes!!! I've got a parametric drawer design that I'm using to ensure optimal fit!!
Katie so I am a Mac and ios user can you recommend design, slice and print software? Thanks!
Much more limited for CAD on Mac, but Fusion 360 is one of the few that should work. Think you're ok on slicers - I'd go with Orcaslicer myself to avoid getting locked into any particular ecosystem!
First thanks for responding you are a real gem. You definitely did spark an interest! My tools are a mess and I have a lot of tidying to do. The way you have your tools and parts organized is genius so I got a lot of printing to do. While I was very busy procrastinating today I stumbled across Bambu printers and they look like they will fit the bill nicely. I have no concept of how long things take to print and I would like to get this done while I am still young. Am I better off with 2 printers? I can always sell another kidney if need be 😄 Many thanks!
Oh there's loads you could do with one for tool organising! I've got a more detailed video on workshop organising coming up! Yes, Bambu are great - I'd look at the P1S which would be great for your needs. I wouldn't get the AMS just yet (multi colour), just get used to single colour printing - you can easily add it later if you want. Likewise, I'd just get one to start - because they can just run through the night if you want, you can 'batch' up all the parts you need too. Again, you can get more if you really get the bug!
Katie I am intrigued with 3D printing and never tried it before. I have so many ideas for things to Make. What should I look for in a printer? something with speed and low noise would be a preference. Is there a printer you would recommend? I would look at this as a longer term investment. Many thanks in advance and I just love your videos and how clever you are!
Oooh, it sounds like I might have sparked an interest!! I've been pondering covering this in a bit more in a video, but I guess at one level it's a bit like 'what car should I buy' - ie it depends heavily on your own needs and interests. That said, I'd generally start with something like a Bambu P1S - which is a decent size, very fast, has multi colour option and can flick to a quiet mode if you fancy
