 What's up pot makers? Welcome to hot makes right here on hot makes hot makes live all of the things. I'm nerdy J aka Jim from the edge of tech. This is my mechanical counterpart, Geary. How you doing, Geary? Your mama. It's about right. It's about right. I know we're a couple minutes late. I think our guest is running a little bit behind. So we were trying to push it off a little bit, but we're going live. We will pull Walter in as soon as he gets here and not a big deal there. So we're going to keep rocking with the show either way. Excuse me. We're live here on Facebook. Actually, Facebook's working this week, by the way, they sent me like a notification saying, Hey, we're really sorry. We noticed that last week we were broken and whatever. But we're back here. We So when we when I was setting up the stream today, it I had to click it like three times the first time the hot makes Facebook didn't work the second time your Facebook didn't work. And then I had to like, it took forever to load the third time. And then it finally posted Crazy. Well, I mean, honestly, let me know if you're here from Facebook. Do we need to keep pushing on Facebook? I have no idea. We're just going to like streamline it. Yeah, yeah, I think I think that's a good idea. So we're here on YouTube, the Facebook and the magical mythical Twitch. I believe and and it looks like somebody's talking to us on Twitch. So someone's over there. So say hi if you're on Twitch and we really should figure that out. Tripod garage or you having a long Island. That is funny. Um, let's see. Oh, you know what? Let me go fix. Is that blowing that up? No, it's good. Okay. I just saw the thing come across my my nightbot is set to tell people on on my channel to come over here. Jim in the magical desk. Yes. Yes, it is. So anyway, You got a little something on the way there. What'd you say? So you got a little something on the way there, Mr. Eddardusk. Yeah, I can't wait. Let's see if I can put my ears in. That's what I forgot to do. I was talking talking ahead of the stream and totally didn't pay attention to that. Um, so anyways, we got an awesome show tonight. Hopefully, hopefully we have Walter on also Welsh creations or Walter Miss prime and he is just a phenomenal maker. Ben on some awesome, awesome shows. And I can't wait to talk to him. Jim needs an Oreo desk and a water dispenser. I like that idea. Currently, I'm drinking coffee and let me know in the chat what you're drinking. Is it tea, coffee, something better? Let us know. I've got some delicious liquid nitrogen that's cooling my circuits. The liquid nitrogen. I don't, I don't give you that good a cooling, do I? I think I just, we just got a PayPal and I believe it said needs more desks. Let me just look at it here needs more MoAR desks from Andrew. Thank you so much. 10 bucks. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. It's too funny, by the way, needs more desks. So if you ordered a shirt or sticker, I believe Caleb has them going and we'll talk about that later in the show. Gary might have had a helping hand in that with getting the shipping processed. I'm not sure if Gary got put to the work on that or not. You know what we're going to do? Because we're still waiting, I'm hoping we didn't get time zones crossed. But here's what we're going to do. We're going to jump into HotMakes right away. And then we'll come back and hopefully, hopefully we'll talk to Walter during the second half of the stream. Does that sound good? Sounds good to me. Yeah. Great thinking on the fly. Yeah. What's up, Matt? We got Maker Deck in the house. It was awesome to talk to a bunch of the Maker Deck crew at IRF. I saw Chris Perillo was on a little bit ago. Polymaker Nick is here. And, and let's see. A whole bunch of, a whole bunch of people. Sergio, Krista. Krista, thank you again for all of the awesome gemstones. She hooked us up and I got a bunch of, bought a bunch of cool gemstones from Krista for my niece's birthday. So she was super excited. Alright, let's do this. Let's do, let's, let's jump right into HotMakes. Let's do it. Alright. First, we'll start with 3D print bunny. This was pretty dang awesome. Oh my full control XYZ. I love this new model. 40 millimeter pin with a 40 millimeter diameter sphere sitting on top. I need to try. I don't know. If you've tried this, let us know. Hot Desks. That's our new channel. Yeah. I need to try this because it looks phenomenal. But let me just do this. And we'll do one of these. Look at this. Is this not ridiculous? As, as Sam Printus would, would quote, are you not entertained? That was pretty good. I need to get some sound by Sam. Yeah. I don't, I'm starting to question 3D print bunny. Like, she might be a witch. Like, look at this stuff. I believe she's a print Jedi. And I mean, like Jedi are just based with her cops. Yeah. Probably she probably studied with, with Pirillo and, and this is her next step in her Jedi training. This is the, the boiling at the end. Let us know what you think. Is this hot or what? And, and yeah. Yes. It's so good. Oh man. I could watch that all day. Like literally just on repeat. So by the way, 3D print bunny, that is phenomenal. I need to try it. I don't care how slow the printer has to go. It is super cool. CGI Jack in the shop says. He says that 20 years ago they were 100 down for this magic. I think 200 years ago. If you saw somebody a 3D printer, they'd hunt you down too. Oh man. Let me just, here we go. Here we go. Just fixing, fixing audio on my side. Okay. Here we go. What do we got next here? Abby Brown. Abby Brown. Abby Brown. How you doing? She has posted some phenomenal cool stuff lately. These are Halloween character signs. They're on Colts 3D. You can check them out. And we talked a lot about this last week, I think. I just love these little things. I think last week we talked about their snap badges where they like press inside of the back and then go behind your shirt. You know, the back goes behind your shirt and you press them in. I absolutely love them. And this is some Halloween ones. Let me pop that up. Check this out. Yes, by the way. All sorts of cool stuff here. These are bigger. So these aren't snap badges, are they, Abby? Yeah, she said those are the same characters. Okay. So they're like bigger. They're bigger versions of the snap badges. I was just going to say, wait a minute, that's hanging from that. It looks much larger than. That's super cool. So when we were looking at this, if it is on Colts 3D, by the way, I'll do this to help you all out because you got to get yourself. Here you go. The bigger ones are 200 millimeters tall. Awesome. So there's the link. Go there after the show. Promise it's worth it. All the cool stuff here. You can kind of see how they work. There's a base you print and then you can snap the tops into that base. And it goes behind your shirt. It's super cool. Let's get rid of that. So then I believe this. I thought we had another one, didn't we? Oh, I got more down here. I was going to say, there's so many. Abby sent us a ton of stuff and we had a ton of submissions. Yeah. What was that? This is the Abby math episode. Yeah, the Abby math of Palooza. I like that. That works for me. All right, local maker, Michigan 200% thing hands, 180 millimeters tall. This is in Polymaker 3D silk lime, nickel like to hear that. And it's on printable. So check that out. This is cool. I mean, they look much larger in this picture. But then if you like look at the next picture, it's so cool. I need to know local maker mission. Are these hollow? I think he's probably with us. Let us know. Are these hollow because it will be really fun to like fill that with candy or some sort of like, I don't know, liquid fake blood. You can fill it with fake blood and like put a small hole in a finger and just like let it run out or something. Come on, it's Halloween, right? No, I got crickets on that one. Sorry. Sorry. Actually, I'm typing a message to you in the background. It's okay. Awesome. Let's see. There we go. So yeah, so that's pretty cool. Somebody's coming out of the build plate. Absolutely. I love this. It's a thing hand again. It's on printables. All of the hot makes you see today will be in the Google sheet that's in the link in the description below. So go in the description, click on that Google sheet, find episode 121. And you'll find all of the cool stuff that was tagged for today and the stuff that we're showing as well. Well, I did not know how long we were going to have. So I grabbed, I think eight or 10 things today. So yeah, fill it with M&Ms. I love that idea. Yeah, but the local maker Michigan says they are hollow, but the STL is not. Whose logo is behind the hand? It looks like if I had to guess, it's a maker deck logo. Yeah, he's doing the what's maker deck thing again. That. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where's the leg? Tripod says, where's the leg? Oh, man. Okay. What do we got next here? Jordan, Mad Monkey, still traveling from Earth. This is, this was obviously a little bit of older post, but still traveling from Earth. I wanted to share this picture. Did I show this last week? I don't remember if I did. I don't think you did. I think we talked about it, but I didn't show it. I don't know. I don't think we showed this last week. Okay, good. Also, real quick so I can get things moving if I need to. Can you check that message? I think you real quick and just give me a yes or no. Sure. Cool. Got it. Still traveling from Earth 2022, but I wanted to share this picture. Obviously, Earth 2022 is a couple of weeks ago. If you didn't see my video on Earth, it came out yesterday. Crazy timing. I just decided to post it in the middle of an afternoon instead of like morning when I usually do. So sorry about that. But it's out there. A lot of cool stuff to see. And of course, death racers, death racers, death racers and a little story and history and watch till the end. And you'll find out how you could possibly win $500 for a 3D printer courtesy of Polymaker. Nick is with us. So I announced during that video that, well, you have to watch the video to find out. And a big announcement will come soon. So check that out. What do we got? Anyways, this was awesome. He's been working on months. He put so much time into this. It's 220%. It's the Atomic Dragon. He's calling it Babyzilla. Over 40 pounds of Polymaker filament. You heard that right. Over 40 pounds of Polymaker filament. That's funny. Let's see. Let me do that. There we go. So there's a picture that is Mad Monkey kind of chilling out with this thing. And right in the center, it's big enough where a gloop bottle actually fits and they kind of took that piece out and put a gloop bottle in there. Let's see. There it is. You can see it on this one. Let me pop that bad boy up. So this kind of gives you an idea. So along with Polymaker and 3D Gloop, he put this thing together. Like he said, over 40 pounds of filament and a lot of printing, as you can tell. A lot of printing and a lot of assembly. It was funny. We were talking about, oops, I just closed it, but anyways, we were talking about him driving down to IRF. And he said, Customs like didn't even care. This thing was in his back, you know, in the back of his car or whatever. And they're like, didn't even look twice. Just get one of those like baby carriers and straps to your chest. I'm like putting one of those. That would be amazing. I would love to see that. I know I think it's with a gloop. I don't think he was taking it back. I'm pretty sure I think it's Andrew and Andrew, right? I think they have it. But that was really cool, Jordan. Man Monkey, if you're with us, nice work. You are, Man Monkey Wakes. I want to make more of them. How many hours do you have in printing, if you remember? And also assembling this thing, because it took you a minute to assemble this. It belongs to Gloop. Awesome. Gloop has it. I don't know. Man Monkey is making them, but where did the designs come from? Yes. I think that was in the post, but I accidentally closed it because I clicked the wrong X. Next. Toymaker 3D, that's what it was. Oh, there you go. What was the group? Oh, it says a 220 percent Toymaker 3D atomic toymaker 3D. That's right. Yeah. It was huge. It was great to see it in person. I mean, hours and hours and hours went into that thing. Gloop always has the best booth and the best models. Yes. That's, you know, it's a good way to test a printer. Next up Liz, she showed off a print from Fixum Dude. It's out there on printables.com. She was printing this on Maker Deck and let's just jump into it. So this is another awesome Fixum Dude model. This is sweet. Oh, the pumpkin pie fighter. There you go. The pumpkin pie fighter. I think, didn't you do a snow one too, like a snowflake or something like that? I think last year. I love this. Gary, what do you think of the pumpkin pie fighter? I absolutely love it. It's it's a pun. It's Star Wars. It's Halloween themed. I don't know why I just noticed the candy corn laser candy corn. Yeah. Looks like little like lasers or something shooting. Yeah. It's super cool. I might have to jump on this printables.com. You can find it. Heck, why not? Let's just go look. Fixum Dude has all sorts of fun stuff here. Oh, look, you can go. You can go green. You can print the top. Yeah. I absolutely love this. This one. You got to make one now, right? Yeah. There you go. Just because I love you all. There's the link. You can print it and then tag Fixum Dude. And Hot Makes. And Hot Makes. Yeah, don't forget Hot Makes. We'll post them all. We'll post them all. Next week is going to be crazy. So there's that. But we'll try to get some Hot Makes in there. All right. There you go. Yeah. Excuse me. I made the mistake of having a giant coffee, but you're pushing me right now. Not Pew Pew, more like Choo Choo, because it's candy. That's right. Andrew, you're correct on that one. I'm assuming Prolo is already on this. Absolutely. He probably has like a fleet of these already hanging from the ceiling. All right. What's next? Abby Brown, you're back. What the devil did I do? There you go. Together it's the same print as above with backlight. There you go. I'm really enjoying this. There we go. I'm really enjoying the profit 3D colors for this project, shown here are orange, red and black. And it's only one and a half millimeter stick. Oh, wow. That's thin. I love these. So if we check, these things are so cool. All done with single extrusion with filament swaps on the Prusa MK3S. Nice. Single extrusion with just filament swaps. That's pretty cool. So anyone could do this really. Very cool technique. Absolutely. There's so many ways to play with them. Agreed, agreed. Devil face now available as one of nine unique flat jack sets on Colts 3D. I love them. Yeah, these are awesome. What else we got? Another one, dual extrusion TPU. What? I think it's the first time I've done this and it just worked. Yellow TPU on red actually kind of makes orange. What? Yellow and red makes orange. This photo is totally weird. It's night. So the inside of the window is reflecting in our kitchen. But that's super cool though. So this is dual extrusion TPU. Let's see. The top layer is lightning infill two layers with no top layers. Got it. So it's just lightning infill and nothing else on top. That's pretty cool. Nice. This is a Maker Gear M3 ID. Okay, sorry. I was quiet there for a second because I was working on something, but we're good. I love it. Sounds good. We check on that. Okay. What do we got next here? Abby, I love it. This thing's awesome. And Colts 3D. Check out Colts 3D. Well, Caleb. Caleb posted this one. Finishing up putting together hot makes live and edge tech merge orders for this week. Everything's hitting the post office today. Daniel, Michael, Sam, Jim. Thank you, guys. Thank you for putting some orders in for some stuffs. The edge of desk. Yes, I did. The edge of desk shirts. Of course, hot makes and the edge of decks. And don't forget only desks. Yeah, that's right. We have an only desk shirt. So check that out as well. There'll be a link in the description. I believe if you want to get yourself an edge of desk shirt, because, you know, I'll post it on other channels too. Nice. So yeah, this, this is, you know, this is, this is pretty awesome. Thank you guys for your orders. And I think me for my orders, of course. I love it. Only desks. So Caleb makes these at home. He has a vinyl cutter and he has a shirt pressed thing. A jigger. That's very technical. I just want to throw it out there. Very technical thing. It's called shirt pressed thingy jigger. But thank you, Caleb, for doing that. And, you know, my bot jumped on first order. He said, if you do it, I'm ordering it. He did it first order. So thank you so much, Daniel. Now you'll have an edge of desk shirt. Of course, I got the only desks coming too, because I don't know. Love that one. Love it. I do. I love that too. Caleb says it's a fun project for Sarah and I to do together. Awesome. Well, thank you. Yeah, make sure I get you a sturdy desk. Ooh. No water. What? Water Oreos. What? Oh, sorry about that. Water Oreos. What Oreos? What Oreos? What? What Oreos? Oh. What? Water. Water Oreos. What are Oreos? I don't know how to say it. I don't know how to say it. Only photo shirt. Only photos shirts. That would be a good one. You should do that. Oh, that would be funny. We all we show up next time we see him like Murph or something and we all have only photos shirts on. Thank you. I appreciate the. Orders and thank you for putting that stuff together. I should not have had that sugar. So what happened is I was at my niece's birthday party and my sister's like, Hey, I have an extra box of dozen of a Krispy Kreme donuts. Here you go. Just what I need. That goes straight to my merch when I finally launch it. Yes, do it. A photo is only only photos. Oh, so good. It's so good. All right. What? Just be the shirt. Be shirt. The desk is sturdy. Funny. That's pretty funny. All right. What do we got next? So I'm checking on chats with Walter. I'm willing to bet we got we got time zones crossed or something. Something's up there. But I have a stream. Yeah, we crossed the streams. So we'll work on hopefully contacting him and getting him on a future episode if he doesn't show up today. But I do have what else? What do we got here? Some maker news. You want to happen to some maker news? Yeah, let's do some maker news. Let's do it. All right. Let's go. You're right. It must be some sort of plastic. Yeah. And your. Whoa. So we. Sorry. Someone said, where's the K2 clip? Oh, I got I saw the K2 clip. That was pretty dang awesome. Makers news. What we got was. Yeah. Abby Brown posted some really cool stuff. And she's talking about 3D printing for mental health and suicide prevention. And she's announcing a very special project. As a matter of fact, we have her here with us. How you doing, Abby? Hey. Sorry about that. I pulled her in like as soon as we started, but I'll get you ready. One thing like 27 years of teaching has taught me. You got to be flexible and ready to roll. And you don't know how things are going to go and make changes on the spot when needed. That's right. All right. I got my want to peek in here, Bruce. I got my gopher here, helping me grab some things around the house. We appreciate you jumping in last minute. Like, you know, like I said, not sure what happened to Walter. We'll talk to him up. But thank you so much. We were going to talk about this in Makers news today anyway. And I wanted to talk about it and kind of go over it a little bit. But Gary mentioned in the background like, hey, if Walter doesn't come on, why don't we ask Abby to come because we knew we were going to talk about this. So perfect. Thank you so much for jumping in. Yeah. No problem. Yeah. No, I got time zones. Just getting this article published had some of its own challenges because the 3D with us is set up in the UK. And so when I'm in San Diego, so I'm trying to figure out like, are we publishing today tomorrow? I was going to go. So I certainly don't understand the challenges. I'm going to get to this in a minute. But since you were talking about some of my hot makes yeah, let's check them out here. Let's do it. Hey, hold on one second. Bruce, can you grab the little one too? She's calling Batman over there. Yeah, exactly. So we had some fun with these. The a bunch of these faces are actually ones that we had made over the last couple of how thank you. Thank you. Thanks to the people of Halloween's for actual like 3D printed jack-o'-lantern pumpkins. And I got this idea and profit 3D sent me some filament. I know they're not generally on the main list of filaments that folks have used, but I've really liked their colors and I've had a lot of success with their filament without any extra fussing around. And I wanted to do a project in orange. So I basically took the pumpkins that we already had and just made projections, these flat projections. So these all have the same outline, but they just have different faces. And some of them have, they're just basically one dimension. So they're all just a millimeter thick. But when my daughter makes designs, she likes to add an extra element of like another layer. So that's at like five millimeters just to give it enough difference. And if the camera can pick it up here, I use different textures and Prusa slicer. I hadn't really played with a lot of those. So that gave me a chance to try a lot of different things as well. And then the ones that have the extra layer like this, we could print two layers in one color and then two layers in another to get these multicolor effects. It was actually the first time I, I'm so used, I'm so spoiled by my maker gear with the two extruders that I was able to, I was able to try for the first time on my Prusa doing a planned programmed filament swap. Okay. Thank you. Yes. He wants me to show this one too. So we started doing some experiments with this just using infill at the top, but using the infill in a different color. And so this one was actually in the set of models. There's a solid back model. So I did a solid back with two layers, then two layers of red and then two layers of this lightning infill. And so we, I don't know. So the whole set is comes up a lot. My daughter, I said, why don't we make a zombie? So then she drew a little sketch and we put this one together. I love it. So these are a lot of fun. And then I had a stand from something else. So that just like happens to hold it. Let's see here. Kind of perfectly. Yeah. And that color is pretty close too. Yeah. And then the little ones, I just made another little stand so that they can prop up on their own. Let's see if I can hold it up. I'm backwards when I, when I use, it's been a while. Actually, I haven't been teaching virtually anymore. It used to be the virtual pro. And now I'm just like, wait, how do you actually, you're back at school, right? We are back in the regular school. Yes. And it's, it's nice. Polymakers say maker gear was their very, very first partner back in 2012. Oh wow. Also love the lightning infill as the black layer on top gives a nice gradient effect. Absolutely. It does. And then Ed says, every time I see Abby stuff, I just want to throw all my printers out the window. I love it. Yeah. I love it. So yeah. So we're back in school and this has been, it's a, I'd say much more normal feeling start to the school year than what we've had the last couple of years. Sure. I mean, there's still issues that we're dealing with than some of my students are still wearing masks. Others aren't. They're wearing masks and sometimes in class, I'll watch one kid decide every 15 minutes to change his mind of whether he's wearing one or not. But one of the things that we talk about in schools, some people probably remember red ribbon weeks, red ribbon weeks focused a lot on drinking, anti-drinking and driving. And lately it's also about awareness of issues with drug abuse and so forth. But another ribbon week that our school district participates in regularly is yellow ribbon week and yellow ribbon week in my world, the ribbons represent awareness of, you know, trying to promote positive mental health, making sure we lead balanced, healthy lives. And then of course suicide awareness and prevention. We talk about risk factors and things that people need to be aware of. And we do presentations with our high school students so that they can not just check in on their own emotions, but be aware of what's going on with their friends and family members and people around them. And so, and also protective factors like attending school regularly and having trusted adults in your life, you know, things that will help students if they are having issues or things to help, you know, support them and what their needs are. And this year, every year there's a bunch of different activities and we have this group of students that we call the PALS, the peer assistant leaders. And they organize different activities and they put together a whole slideshow presentation for the teachers to show their classes during one special period in the week so every student would get the same information. And one of the activities they suggested this year was using a little bit bigger than this, but yellow post-it notes to write messages to students. And honestly at first I was kind of grumbling about this. It's like on Monday they're telling us they want us to write notes to all our students by Friday, like this would be a challenge to do this. But how do we solve a problem with 3D printing? So I was thinking about, hmm, I've got yellow filament. What can I do? And I pulled out this amazing yellow bird from printed solid that I had. Dave Randolph had actually generously donated filament to me a while back to support some other projects I was doing. And I still had a lot of this yellow. And I said, let's make something that I can give to everybody. And the idea of a message led to the idea of positive words. Like what could we do? Something to encourage students and bring hope and positive energy with it. So I started a list with my family and we started playing with some different ideas. And ultimately I came up with 10 words. And we had, so grumbling on Monday turned into an idea Tuesday morning. And I had my first models by Tuesday afternoon evening. And then I just started printing plates. Eight hours for 24 hours for 10. And I had 100 of them by Friday. And I had them all in a bag and I could bring them to my classes. And the students would randomly select it out. And oh, what'd you get? And while I walked around with my bag, I talked to the students about what yellow ribbon week means. Like yes, we have these activities, but it's also emotional. And it brings up a lot of issues and they're important topics that we have to be aware of in the world. And, you know, a lot of people have lost friends or family or known acquaintances including myself to suicide. My family has a very close long-time family friend that died of suicide about six years ago. And every time we have yellow ribbon week, I cannot help but think of her and, you know, what she means to my family and, you know, how tragic and perhaps preventable that could have been. Sure. So I got more of my family involved. My sister helped choose a charity for us to focus on. So we're going to make a contribution to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. And we decided that for up to 100 people who download and print and post the right tags, hashtag yellow ribbon 3D print, we'll donate $2 to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. And I reached out to David Randolph at Printed Solid and he said that Printed Solid will match a $2. And then during the Twitter frenzy of my afternoon, Joel Telling, returning from Malta, chimed in and said that he'll match that as well. So one post, one download post and print and photo can generate $6 toward our donation. And I'm also asking folks when they download on Colts, which typically I sell my models. I don't do Patreon for various reasons. But with this, I didn't, you know, it's not appropriate. I felt to try to sell it, but I'm asking folks make a donation of a few dollars. I think I recommended four. If somebody were to make their own donation of $4 plus the sixth, then one, one lucky chain is a $10 donation toward a cause that can have perhaps reach a lot of people and make a difference in a lot of lives. Absolutely. And you're, and you want to make sure you hashtag yellow ribbon 3D print and AFSP national, right? Well, that's not necessarily part, have to be part of the tag. I'm going to tag me so I can keep track. It's nice to include printed solids and so we're helping out with this as well. But I think the yellow ribbon hashtag yellow ribbon 3D print is probably going to be the main way that I can keep track of it. We had our first make just basically right when the show was starting. Someone posted it in the beautiful blue and white. It doesn't have to be yellow, but of course the yellow is what's going to be dear to my heart and recognizing the project and kind of the symbolism behind it. But the idea is to spread positive messages. I mean, print one, print 100, pass them out, whatever it needs to be. In fact, several folks already today in the 3D printing community have reached out to me personally through DM, just saying how much this project means to them, that they have dealt with mental health issues themselves. They wish that they had had people that they could have reached out to earlier in their struggles and are eager to get involved and to do some printing themselves. Can Abby's tweet be posted? Sure. What that means. Maybe like a link to here all. Yeah, we can shoot you a link to the... You know what we can do about this? Gary, can we get a link to this main post in a description of the video? That would be cool. I think you can do that. I'm sorry, I got distracted by my helper here. Did you need the link for me or did you get that, Gary? So I have the link, the problem. I can't edit the descriptions while we're live. You never get to do that when we leave. Hold on, maybe I can get it. We'll make sure to change that after the show, and then this is the link to... I just posted it into the chat though. We just double-hosted it, so let it fly. That's okay. So anyways, that's the link to the actual tweet that you started this with today. Yeah, there I just did. Yeah, I cannot... This is super cool. I love the idea of printing these and handing them out to people, maybe a jar or something where people can take them if they want, whether it's family or just if you brought a bucket or bowl of these to work and let people take them. And I love the idea, and so it looks like you're going to do the first hundred. You're going to give $200, I'm sorry, $200, so a total of $200, right? And Joel's doing that and printed solid as well. And I want to thank 3D with us, the website that published the article. They had actually reached out to me before this ever came up about writing for them. And I just was... I'm too busy. I want to, but it'd be fun sometime later. And so when I did this with my classes and thought about posting it on CULT3D, it just sort of like, wait a minute, I have a vehicle to get this out in a more meaningful way because I'm like, how much story can I tell in a tweet? I mean, I had done threads for sure, but I really wanted to get this out in a more significant way. And 3D with us has actually already made a $100 contribution themselves as well. So that's in addition to what we're doing with the... trying to encourage folks to print and do the $2 apiece. Nice. That is so cool. And it's such a cool story. You definitely want to check out this article. It'll be in your tweet. So go check out the tweet right after the show. Jump in there and read a little bit about the history and why you're doing this and anyone else who wants to jump in and hit CULT3D, maybe hit the donate button and donate a little bit towards this. I think that's an awesome thing. And if you guys tag HotMakes, we'll try to get a bunch like... maybe we'll do a big posting or something towards the end of December. Yeah, we needed to create some type of end to this. So I'm hoping we'll get through Halloween. And then kind of a November kind of Thanksgiving fits in there. And then maybe we can check back again with HotMakes in a couple weeks and give an update of where we're at with the project and what we can do. Yeah, it's super cool. It's an awesome project. And I think it, like you said, it'll mean a lot to a lot of people. And some you might not even know. You know, I mean, like, they might just be like, what's this? And you can either explain or say, hey, it's a very positive key chain. And this is for, you know, mental health and suicide prevention if you print them in the yellow, right? And I bet you if you do this and leave it at work or somewhere where there's people around, right? More than hopefully... I mean, the people in your house will appreciate it as well, I'm sure. But where, like you said, you brought them to work and you gave them to the kids there. And I'm not sure how did the staff take it? Did you talk to the staff much? So I shared a little bit with some of the teachers that I'm most friendly with. Like here, remember that posted activity? Yeah. Well, you know, 3D printing, here we go. And so they were very, you know, thought that was really interesting. I shared the article with my staff today and I got a lot of positive feedback from it. I made a box in the same yellow that I'm going to put some more key chains in and keep it in my classroom. I've already had students who said that they've given theirs to another friend. And so I want them to feel like that they can get another one for themselves. I was also thinking about printing some for our counseling office. So the counselors maybe have some when they feel like there's a student who needs a little pick me up that they have something that they can pass along. Amazon, amazing. We found actually a set that were super easy to open. So the day of the night before my kids wanted to help out and my husband, they sat there and they individually looped them all so that they'd be ready to go. Rather than originally I wasn't thinking I would do that, but then I knew that if I had the loops on them, then they would immediately link it to something rather than just stuffing it in their pocket to disappear. So I did have one more thing I wanted to add. My little helper brought them over. I print with two colors because I can and I love it. However, the models are set up in a way where they could be, and the photos look better in the article, but you could print with one color, with raised letters, or just print the bases by themselves. That one's flat and so there's all just like engraved. So I really had this idea in mind that you could definitely could be done dual extrusion or single extrusion. And the letters are actually embedded into the model so that they don't flick off too easily. Rather than when you print like one and then you just stick the other one on top, it can look nice, but if these are actually supposed to be key chains and knocked around a bit, they'd probably fall apart. So yeah, that's the photo. So you can see that it's all set up that way. And I also included a model that's like all 10 of them together so you can just like lay it down and just do all 10 at once. So that's two copies of the 10 there in that picture. That's so cool. And I like that also you're including a free house. That's not my key. I know I saw that on Twitter. Several people, like you should not do that. And I said, oh, I understand what CAD and a 3D printer can do. And yes, I won't tell you where that key goes to. But it is not my key. It's not my key, I promise, but it's the school. No, no, that's it's such a cool idea. And I think props to the family for helping you open up key rings and put a hundred of these on key rings because I can only imagine you said these were easy to open, which is great. But some of those they get real fun to open up. And it's not the best job, right? I mean, so props to the family for doing that. And it's just such a cool, such a cool project and idea. Yeah. And as I said in the article, I think, you know, and I, I, my husband actually kind of brought, came up with this sort of idea, which really it is that this is a really small print and it's a really easy little thing to make, but it can have such a big impact on somebody's life. And somebody just knows you're thinking about them or just a little reminder that to have some positive energy in the world. So we do a lot of really big, interesting, complex, crazy prints, but in some ways this might be the most, might have the biggest impact of anything I've ever done. So. Yep. And there you go. The hottest make. Not only that, but you never know. It's always interesting because maybe this is just the right time for somebody to see this. Like, you know, maybe they're having a rough day or rough week or a rough month and all of a sudden they come across something like this and it's like, you know, it turns that around for that day or whatever. That's such a cool thing. And like you said, such a small print can mean such a big thing to a lot of people. Our world of school, especially high school, there's a lot of stress and there's a lot of energy and the negative things out there in the world tied to school. And unfortunately, I noticed I didn't look at the news, but articles in particular, but I did notice that there was a school shooting in, I think it was St. Louis today. And it's a lot of that goes back to these issues too of mental health and protecting our kids. And yeah, sometimes the small things make the biggest impact. And you know, not only, you know, this gives me a chance to, you know, talk about 3D printing with my students and, you know, what that means to me, because this is my mental health outlet. When I'm feeling like just stressed, like the whole beginning of the school year, my printers were off. I was just so crazy. And at some point I was like, I need to get printing again. I need this mental release because it's my outlet and the thing that makes, you know, one of the things that makes me happy. And I can then share that with my own students as a way of how I can find some balance in my world too. I love it. Do you think, maybe this is a crazy idea, but do you think, do you think it would be possible to make them in the snap badges? Have you thought about that? Possibly. It's tough to do words in the snap badges. Because it's really not that much workable space. And when you start getting little tiny pieces, it's harder to print. They're more likely to flick off. So that might not be the best venue for that. I was thinking like you could wear it if you wanted to. And you could switch out the different, maybe I don't know, heart awareness or a kidney where any of those could be swapped out quick in there. A quick change snap badge. Maybe what I need to do is create a snap badge with a ribbon symbol and you print the ribbon in whatever color your ribbon happens to be. Is it a yellow ribbon time? Is it a pink ribbon time? Like a lot of times in October we see that. Is it red ribbon time? What does that ribbon mean to you? I don't think that would be difficult to do. So then you can always just print whatever color is your current ribbon that your community is recognizing. I love it. And who would say snap badges have to be round? You could make a back for that. Yeah, I'm not sure. We'll see. They just started looking like name badges. Yeah, I love it. What's your name badge hope? So when Caleb contacted me and said, are you up for jumping in tonight? I had to get out of my grading outfit and I said, what shirt am I going to wear? And I realized it's not on the video. So I got to show it off. 3D printing is my superpower. Yes, I love it. That's where I feel like I'm at today with this, that I'm spreading some love, spreading some of my superpower to the world. I absolutely love it. A lot has been people saying donated. Once a downloaded donated sliced. Polymaker, there you go. The snap ads needs a positive shapes for hearts. Etc. I love it. I think this is a great idea. It is. It's awesome. I mean, the community we have around 3D printing around making in general is phenomenal. And it's stuff like this. From from people like you, you know, that just means so much to a lot of people. So thank you so much from all of us in the chat and all of us watching. Thank you for doing this because I think it is going to mean a lot to a lot of people. Thank you for giving me an opportunity to talk about it some more, because it's been something real close to my heart lately between a key chains and flat jacks and Halloween. It's been a lot of busy printing around here lately. So it's it's fun to share it with you. And I always appreciate hot makes for giving me a forum to share some of my work. And I'm looking forward to giving an update. I'm hoping in a couple of weeks we'll have already hit our hundred and we'll just be looking for more. I cannot wait to hopefully go ahead. I was just going to say, I appreciate you two for your frequent flyer. You're like here every week. So I appreciate it. Absolutely. And I did. I did hear back from Walter. We did get time zones crossed. He's in California. Also known as pooch time. And he and he thought it was 6pm your time. And not and it's 4pm your time, 6pm our time. So there you go. So he said, I'm really sorry. We're going to reschedule. He said, yeah, whatever works. Let's get rescheduled. I'm super sorry. And yeah, so we're going to get Walter rescheduled. We will change the, let's change the titles. Yeah. Yeah. And that way it reflects what we did when we talked to Abby, which is equally as awesome. And, and let's see, let's get to that hundred. Let's knock that out. And then let's see how far past we can go. So a hundred posts. Don't forget to tag. Abby and don't forget to tag. What's the other one? Just so we don't forget. Well, print and solid is also helping out with this. Joel now, but I don't know if he needs every one of those tags. Hashtag yellow ribbon 3d print. And we'll keep an eye on that. And like I said, hopefully we'll have an update for you in a couple of weeks. And I look forward to using the hot makes here as a chance to share and spread the word a little bit more as well. This is the kind of stuff that we're here for. So. Yeah, absolutely. And here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to, I'm, I'm trying to load something really quick forward slash what is it? I'll go anywhere. Yeah. I got, I got something interesting. Hashtag was yellow. Yellow ribbon 3d print. Yeah. Well, we'll do this. What are you doing? Ribbon 2Bs. I thought Gary was supposed to do all the tech tricks. He is, but I'm throwing a curve ball. I'm throwing a curve ball on the episode. We still got 50 people here. I think Nick is still here from Polymaker. Here's what we're going to do. I just decided we are going to give it, Nick has a yellow. I have it. Polymaker has a yellow. I am going to buy and give away a spool of yellow so you guys can print these. And we're going to do that right now just because I said so. Gary, surprise. Well, was that there a limit on that? Hang on. Do we need to have a meeting here? For what? I'm going to give away one spool of Polymaker yellow. Oh, oh, oh. I thought you were going to say one spool for like every person who did X. How many are we doing here? I'm going to buy myself. I'm going to give away a spool of the yellow Polymaker filament and they do have some awesome yellow. And I just, I just, because Nick is here, he's here. And so everybody, if you want to chat that right there and I'm going to start collecting, I got it. I got the giveaway in the, in the background already. I just went like, I totally went off the rails here. Here's what we're going to do. This is, this is what we got for entries. It has to be hashtag yellow ribbon. You have to type that in the chat. Look at that. Polymaker. Whoa. Five more spools. Absolutely. Five times to that. So we can do, so we're going to give away six because I'm, I'm going to, we're going to purchase one and send it to somebody and Polymakers matching that with five. So they're five times in us. Thanks Nick. I appreciate that. And we're going to do this, but right now we only have nine entries. So let's rock and roll here. Let me see. I'm going to refresh this. Okay. Let me just make sure hashtag. Hello ribbon. That's Bella wrong. Yellow ribbon. That looks good to me. Good. I'm a terrible. Speller. There we go. Now it's climbing a little bit here. 18 entries. Come on. There's 50 people still here. Let's get that all the way up there. You have a one and no five. Geez. I can't even talk. You have a six and 50 chance. I don't know how that works. They're six. They're six total. Six. They're six total. Let's see what happens. I don't think about things. I just do it. Let's go for it. There you go. I'm smiling. I've been loving it. Yeah. There we go. Keep going while we're doing that. Andrew Osmond. Put your thing in again because you put a space between the hashtag and the yellow. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We're going to keep, we're going to keep watching that tally go up. We're over at 25 entries now. And while we're doing this, just a quick heads up. Pollymaker said it's going to be a PLA pro. PLA pro. Perfect. Very durable for the ribbons. Pollymaker yellow PLA pro. I love it. Yeah. One of my students already said, just my friend broke mine. I think just a little piece came off, which isn't. Yeah. I'm not going to be mad about that. I'm like, if you really are pulling on it a lot, then, you know, it might need a little more, but we'll see. We'll see what happens once the teenagers put them to the test for like a month. Right. Well, hey, they're easy and cheap to reproduce. So at least, at least that they're fast and you can keep going. Just a quick heads up next week. We have a Devin from make anything and Marcy mixed media girl. We're here with us next week on Halloween. We are going to start 30 minutes early. Surprise, Gary. I'm not sure if I told you that we're going to start 30 minutes early. A lot of surprises tonight because I didn't realize that people still, um, people still trick or treat on Halloween. I like out here, no one does. Like we all have to go Saturday this week instead of on Halloween, which really stinks. Cause when I was young, all of it was on Halloween all the time. So we had to go out and come back when it got dark, you know, but, um, long story short, we're going to be here. Um, she actually, I went on her website. I ordered both Devin's. Yes. Um, I ordered both Devin and I a, uh, surprise kit that came with 12 paints, a lot of Halloween colors here. And, uh, we're going to do an acrylic paint pour with them all over a year ago, except we're all going to pour them over Halloween items. I'm not sure. I'm not sure if I'm going to print some ghosties or use this ghosty. Um, I'm going to use, uh, oh, I know this one failed pretty gloriously at the top. No head. So I could probably pull her right through it or something. That would be kind of fun. Oh, anyways, we're going to look like it would make it look like the ghost had like an accident or something. There you go. I love that. And, uh, I, there might be pumpkins. Who knows what we're going to pour over. So join us next week alive. Pour with Devin for make anything mixed media girl. Her name is Marcy. Um, that's going to be a super fun episode. Also, uh, we have Shane from Saber Bay coming up Aaron galactic armory coming up on the 21st. David Hewlett will be with us. Hopefully COVID free, um, David Hewlett. And then, uh, a little past that, we're going to make sure Walter gets back on the show. Um, we're talking, uh, dates in the background here already. So, um, we'll make sure Walter gets back. He is, he's such a cool guest. He's been, uh, if you ever watched the show face off, um, on sci-fi, he's, he's been a finalist two times in the 10th season and the 13th season, he's been the top two, um, in that show. So such a cool person. All right. What do we got here? Last call. Um, hashtag yellow ribbon and we're going to start drawing and then we're just going to start drawing. I love it. That's an awesome mask. Um, poor. Yeah. Poor. Um, Matt, Matt, how you doing? Nice to see you. Um, let's see. Here we go. Chris. What's up? Speaking of Chris from sinister props. Uh, also master chief is killing it. By the way, nice work, Chris. Here we go. We got six filament rolls to draw and we're six minutes after, uh, I'm going to start drawing. You ready for this Geary? Let's do this. Let's do it. So in the background. All right. Cool. Here we go. Number one. Me, me, me, me. Oh, I don't think that counts. That would be amazing. Last time I think I did win Stephen pool. There you go. You got a role and you get a role and you get a role. Um, all right. All right. Where's my cursor? There it is. All right. Congratulations, Stephen. You get a yellow roll of a PLA pro. And thanks to do Paulie maker. But the, uh, so if you win email the email that I just put at the bottom of the screen info at hotmakes.com. Yes, that if you win and your winner put that down there, Liz. Yes. Congrats. That's awesome. Maybe you can print them on maker deck. Oh, that would be so cool. I haven't gotten set up for that yet. It's a little hard when the printers are in the garage and it's dark. Ah, a little bonfire. I mean, a light will, we'll fix that. Yeah. No, it'd be so hard to see them there. Yes. We'll, we're going to make sure we get them on there. That'll be a lot of fun. Um, what else do we got here? This will be number three. Come on. Edgy tech, Edgy tech. Oh, Steve's cave. Congratulations. Steve's cave. Again, there's an email on the bottom of the screen right now. If you win and you're a winner, um, not saying we're all not winners or something like that, but if you win the contest tonight, email that down below and we'll make sure you get taken care of. Um, let's see. Come on. Greg R. Greg R. Congratulations. I believe that's four. Am I right, Gary? Uh, yeah. That was number four. You need a math teacher. One, two. Yeah. I was like, keep counting. Let me, let me just hang up. Um, all right, we got two more. Steve's cave. You already won Steve's cave. Uh, redraw. I thought I pulled them out when we redraw, but, uh, Steve you already won one. So we're going to draw again. Before the confetti's even down. Now it's awesome. There we go. Victor. Congratulations. Don't forget. If you guys win, hit that email at is on the bottom right now. And we got one more. Right. Yep. We got one more. Five plus Jim's one. Yes. Six. What? What was that here? Uh, one more thing too. When you, uh, when you email info, uh, makes go ahead and make sure in the body of the email, let me know what your username is. Cause I don't, I don't always know what that translation is. Yes. Absolutely. When you, uh, when you email us, if you win, make sure we know your YouTube, uh, name because yeah, like he said, we don't know everybody's and they'll be like, yeah, my name is George and it'll be like, you know, I don't know. Jack in the shop or something. Sergio. Congratulations. Sergio. There you go. So Caleb, um, one of those just make sure to hold back for them so, so I can make sure to make that purchase from polymaker and then send it to them. Uh, but everybody else, congratulations polymaker. Thank you so much. Uh, five spools of the yellow PLA pro to go towards printing. Um, I'm telling you a full spool of PLA pro is going to print a lot of these if you, if you so choose. So, uh, do it, check it out. It'll be a lot of fun and hopefully we can get some cool tags. Don't forget. You have to tag, uh, the hashtag that we posted earlier. Um, and you can see it all. There you go. You can see it all in Abby's post as well. Uh, we're going to make sure that is in the, um, description and everything else, but I know we're running late. Everybody. I know there's other shows going on after what? Sorry. I just posted in the chat again. That's what I think. Perfect. Perfect. Should I do it quick too? No, I'm just joking. Um, but thank you guys so much. Um, Abby, thank you so much for being here. Uh, you're so since you're here, tell everybody where we can find you. Are you just on the twitters? Uh, so Twitter, um, uh, Abby math, uh, Instagram, Abby math, 3d. If you prefer to post on Instagram, I'll, I'll track there too. It's just harder to, I find it much more difficult to have like conversations in that community interaction. Sure. On Instagram. Um, my, I post my work on cults 3d. Uh, so you can find me there. Um, and that's probably the best way to go. I teach at Torrey Pines high school in San Diego. Um, where I actually went as a student as well. And so it's very much a home and a community for me. So it's really great whenever there's opportunities to give back and, um, share this way. So there we go. Oh, there, there. Excellent. Awesome. Well, uh, was that Steve, right? That's printing. I couldn't tell. I think that was Steve's. Yeah. Steve's cave said he was printing three. Nice. So there you go. Let's, let's get them all over maker deck. If you haven't been there, check out maker deck too. That's a super cool, super cool venue for us to drop like anything we're working on, whether it be printing or wood carving or any, any making. So go check that out. Um, everybody else. Thank you guys so much for being here. I know we're a little late, but we did give away six, six roles of filament. Thank you so much to Nick over a poll maker for that. That's one more than five and one less than seven. So I just want to throw that out there. Um, Nick, thank you again. Uh, zombie hedgehog. What's maker. Um, anyways, uh, thank you again, everybody. Again, Nick, I really appreciate it. We didn't, didn't expect that. And, uh, I appreciate that everybody else. We will see you next week with, uh, Devin for make anything Marcy mixed media girl. And we're going to have a crazy show of, um, actually making some stuff. So it's going to be a lot of fun. We'll see you there until then. Uh, Abby, we'll be right back with you. Stay right there. Everybody else. We'll see you next week. Bye everybody.
