 Let's get ready for what's up everybody. Welcome to hot makes right here on the edge of tech where we aim to educate and entertain the maker community. You guys just met the man pooch. How you doing pooch. I'm fantastic. Look at me. I'm on the left side today. I was just going to say we're a little bit backwards today. How about this ready flip flip flip. Flippy for real. Maybe we may have a clap. No, it didn't work. It's a little delayed. It's a little. Yeah, I got a right hand man. I'm good. Am I your right hand? I guess I'm your left hand man this way. You're left. Yeah, my left, my your right. Anyway, I'm fantastic man. I had a great weekend. It's been a decent Monday so far. We got a full slate tonight. We got our giveaway coming up at the end so you know hang out for that everybody excited to see our usual cast of characters some new people out in the crowd so welcome if you're new. This is the show hot makes where you the maker community tag things hashtag hot makes on the Twitter and soon on the instas and we editorialize them for you so you don't have to constantly be scrolling your Twitter feed right Jim. Amen. That's right and I tell you what it's fun because a lot of times we both don't get to see everything either so this kind of like circle it brings us full circle because then if I saw something and you saw something we put it all together everybody sees it right. It's right circular it's up and down and around you pay your quarter you get on the merry go round you go up and down around circular with the flow all good things. And we had a couple of people like whoa he's on the wrong side but we're back it's okay. Creatures of habit man it just weirds people out when things are different you know. I love it. I love it. I was I'm in the mirror realm. Look at me. So yeah I'm going to get what but first second did you watch the Super Bowl. Yeah I did watch the Super Bowl. Yeah I did watch the Super Bowl. I honestly had no dog in the fight. I didn't get it. But you know I was there for the commercials. Little bit disappointing this year you know some little snarkers here and there. Did you see the halftime show. I did see that. I liked the weekend. I mean I've always thought that catchy you know song his big hit that it's got that 80s vibe was is cool. I like the weekend. The show but it's that the flip thing just reminded me of him when he's in that like house of mirrors in the middle. That made me a little I made me a little dizzy. I was going to say they should have had like a warning about that and then my girlfriend was just like what is up with those guys that look like they had jockstraps over the base. Well if you followed him it's part of his newest record and stuff like that. But yeah I think yeah it was it overall kind of a Super Bowl with to me kind of a halftime show but now we're on hot makes and that's going to be that's going to be a no. No we're next level I mean to be fair the NFL was rounding out its 2020 season is a great summary for that you know so hopefully next year having the crowd again all that stuff. Like the fanfare is you know kind of part of the experience I felt bad for some of the players even because it's like you know you go to the big game and then you don't have like that energy. Right and that kind of sucks but you know anyway. Some people say that made me wanted to yak anyways. Anyway we have an awesome show so we have some amazing guests with us today. Oh yeah and Ethan's dad are here with us today so we're going to bring bringing them on shortly but first a quick plug for things. If you haven't checked them out do that things is sponsoring us from a couple weeks ago all the way through February they're doing a $50 Amazon gift card for the winner every week so we're going to do that at the end of the show. Nightbot is so nicely dropping the links in the description or in the chat. Also there is a link in the description you can go to as well for that but that brings us to something I want to start with right away. This was pooch's pick right yeah yeah your pick and you pick something straight from things that you that you liked and you thought was really cool. I'm excited to tell you why. You're excited to tell us why. And it's related to my rant this week so you're going to have to hang out for that part as well. Four shadowing. Possibly possibly some foreshadowing. Five shadowing even. Yeah so this is what it is and I got to grab on the side of the screen here so this is a tell us what this is. You know what I forgot to grab my prop because I had this so this is a this is an iPhone stand specifically for the new iPhone 12. Although this concept would work fine for pretty much any modern cell phone now that's using like a cheese standard charger. This one happens to use the new MagSafe you know standard thing but I'm sure there are many others like it out there for possibly your your phone. So if you're into the inductive charging which I very much am in this day and age it's it's obviously it's not as fast as what we're used to from plugging in. Right. But as I get to you know foreshadowing with my rant the plug in has its flaws as well and you know I don't know how you tend to do your charging but like at the end of the day. I've got the you know I got my watch and I got my phone and I said I'm on the nightstand to charge when I go to sleep and and then they're all charged up and ready to go when I get up in the morning. Right. And then so historically I've had this great watch stand that I really like that just does this exact thing where if anybody has the Apple watch and I'm sure other watch chargers are similar there's a little inductive charger pad that's just magnetic. And it clicks to the back of it so you know I just set my watch on that stand and it's nice because it actually is kind of a bedside clock I don't have an alarm anymore I just use my my phone or my watch. And and I love that it just kind of sits there it looks nice on the on the nightstand and I wanted something for my phone in the same way because historically it's just been kind of laying down and and you know sometimes I'll just easily knock it off. And so I don't know just kind of displays and I like that it can be upright because you can just kind of tap it. You know see if you have a notification and not have to like take it and you know untether and stuff. It's a nice clean design it's simple and I like that it integrates with the with the native charger so it just kind of gives you a little bit nicer feel to just the standard you know charger so you know people in the chat tell me if you would enjoy using something like this. Unfortunately I didn't have a chance to print it and this particular one is for the 12 which I don't have yet even though I've been this close to pulling the trigger because I really want that FLIR sensor. Sorry it's not FLIR but the the sorry the LiDAR not FLIR I love the LiDAR for the 3D scanning which we're going to talk about a little bit too. Let's make sure we shout out this is by it looks like Enron 1776 is the user here. I know that's a great user name choice. Whatever happened to them. It's the iPhone 12 Pro Max MagSafe stand and there is a link going across the bottom and I think it was put in the chats as well so make sure you check that out. Thank you so much to things for everything you do for the show. And yeah I think that was a great pick. I don't want to say too much but I think we're going to know why shortly. It's a practical print and it's a nice aesthetic piece so I think it's some good bang for your buck so you know go check it out on things. If you're if you're interested if you've got an iPhone 12 and that's of use to you maybe maybe it's worth a print. Let us know how it goes. Although Jesse says you still still waiting for that cheese stand rant. Yeah yeah we'll we'll get to that buddy. Don't want to let you down the cheese stand rant huh. I think I think if you're going to do it a cheese stand rant you have to come here to Wisconsin. And we'll go to an actual cheese stand for the show. Are there stands are there actual stands like people just set up and sell their cheese if you I mean it's not like. It's not like a hot dog vendor is it like your car. Country where they actually do that too. But but there's like farmers markets and there's places you can buy fresh cheese and stuff. I think it would be funny to do a cheese stand rant in front of a cheese stand. Just just trash talking the cheese vendor right to their face. You call this cheese. Turn that. There's holes in this cheese. This is garbage. I love it. I love it. Well I tell you what. Let's see. There we go. I think it's time. I think we should bring our guests in is where I'm going. I appreciate thanks. Thank you so much for that link. But I want to get to these guys as soon as possible. Everybody has been talking about what we're about to talk about. A couple of weeks ago we had Andrew on and Andrew actually gave us like a live demo while he was on and he's in the chat right now. I saw him in the chat a phenomenal job with that printer to I love the new video. If you haven't checked out Andrew Sinks new video where he made the stuff the food print. I'm going to tease it with that. I hope you like peanut butter and jelly. Who doesn't man. I need one in my life. That's what I'm saying. Peanut butter and jelly for sure. Ladies and gentlemen it is time with great honor. I think we should bring Ethan and his dad Marcus to the stream. How are you guys doing? I'm doing good. Fantastic. Thank you for joining us. Two or three episodes back we were talking about your app. How long has the app been out in the wild now Marcus? A.K.A. Ethan's dad has a name and it's Marcus. Probably the second week of January. So not long. I started working on it over Christmas break. I was off the same time the kids were. Wow. You knocked that out pretty fast then huh? I agree. I didn't start from scratch. There's a lot of people write papers like an iterative closest point algorithm and like screen plus on and stuff like that and all that stuff. They write thesis papers and then they'll write C++ code along with it as a proof of concept and it all gets published in the movies in the wild and then show these all these great libraries to start off with. That's great. How long has that been in mesh land? Okay. Ethan have you been helping your dad with the development? What's your role been in the whole thing? I'm a tester. You are a tester. Tell us about the testing process. What do you do? He's really good at finding bugs. He also came up with a feature. Tell him about the feature that you had me in. A recent camera feature. What is it? What kind of feature? That recenters to camera if you lose track. Oh, perfect. Nice. Very handy. 9999. He says Ethan and Marcus. Thank you so much. Now, Ethan. I was going to say, Ethan, are you getting bounties for your bug squashing efforts? You getting paid for that? Because you know you can get paid for bounties. Don't tell me that. You're allowance. I'm sure. I love it. The reason that the app is named after him basically is we've been working on his YouTube channel for a while. I was going to release the app for free, totally free and just use it to promote his channel. But I said, you know, we could try to make some money off this and then we could use it to buy stuff for like, you know, another 3D printer. He's really into like hydroponics and he's always wanting more gear. He grows herbs in the basement. Oh, cool. So he was totally behind that. And that's why I'm sorry for you guys. But that's nice. Uncle Jesse is loving your app for 99 from Uncle Jesse. He says the app rocks and the father son tech duo is awesome. So getting some love from Uncle Jesse as well. You shouldn't be sorry for that. I mean, you guys put some work into this. You deserve to get compensated for your efforts and from what it sounds like, it's very reasonable. So tell us how it's, it's monetized. So it's free to download the app, right? Right. And then there's some paid upgrades inside the app. Yeah. So you can scan for free and then you can even, there's an option in the action menu that actually lets you view the match. So you can see exactly what you're going to get. If you're thinking you're going to 3D print it, before you ever pay for anything, you can, you know, just try to get the perfect scan that you're actually happy with and you want to print, take a look at the mesh, make sure you're happy with it. And then you pay a one-time fee to unlock it. Okay. If you're a cheapskate like me and you just want to do the STL, you can just unlock the STL where there's a deal if you want to unlock everything. And that's one, it's a lower price. What does that cost if we can ask? So it's currently $19.99 to unlock all the features. Okay. And if you just want to get STLs to print and stuff like that, you said it's less? It's $6.99. It seems more than reasonable for what you're getting. And we've already had a lot of people, it sounds like out in the crowd that have used it and stuff. So tell us in the chat if you've used it and what your experience was. Have you been getting good feedback from the community and, you know, feature requests and stuff like that? Yeah. I put out a request over Twitter and we have our own Facebook group where we hope people will, you know, as they become users of the app, they'll come there and share the projects that they're working on because I can't wait to see what they come up with, you know, what they scan, what they're 3D printing and stuff. And so we asked in that group also as far as, you know, what features they'd like to see. Yeah. So it's just a matter of taking those ideas and then prioritizing them and getting them into the road. Nice. I just want to shout out Tripod's Garage. He said he wanted to see the animation on my face again and the first drink is on us. Yeah, I changed that today. So if you guys donate, the animation of the dancing penguin is right on my face, I guess. We're going to have some fun with that today, but I love the sound of the app. So we have a lot of questions and I know we talked a little bit before the show, but you said you wanted to answer that during the show. Is it possible someday? Can we do it on our Android phones? So I was joining the, you know, community YouTube chats and those guys actually all helped me figure out the pricing and everything. So, you know, great things to the community. But I was asking them about Android because I'm an iOS engineer. So I was born that way. So I don't do much Android development. So I don't know much about Android and I was asking them if Android even have like a two-depth sensor like the iOS does. And first I was called no, but then someone came just recently and told me that Samsung's do have something similar. So there's a possibility in the future, you know, and if not by me, I'm sure someone else will create a 3D standing up for Android. Okay. So it may be a possibility. Honestly, I think it's only a matter of time. I mean, whenever Apple's doing something, the competition is obviously eager to catch up. Somebody had asked, is LiDAR required? So you mentioned there's a two-depth thing. So you don't necessarily need LiDAR, but you do need a specific sensor package, yes? Yeah. So how it gets started on this whole thing was I was going, like I've been dealing with the iPhone SE, which is pretty old, is at least five years old. And I was going to get an iPhone 12 for Christmas basically from Ethan's mom. And I said, you know, I need the pro because it has the LiDAR. You know, they keep everything in the LiDAR. I'm like, I'm going to be the 3D scan with this LiDAR. And I was joking around with my brother. I said, you know, if there's no good 3D scanning apps for the phone when I get it, I'm going to, I'm going to swear I'm going to write one. And long story short, of course, I did. Low and behold. But the LiDAR on the, on the rear facing camera, which is the side opposite screen, it's very sparse LiDAR. It's really just meant for AR tracking to track the background to place things in the background. But it doesn't have the resolution that the front facing camera was. So we use the front facing camera for the 3D scanning. Okay. And that segues well into one of the things that we wanted to show off that because the sensor, it's so much better because they're using that for your face ID validation and they need that kind of detail, right? And so you, now was it you that developed this mirror that we're about to show off here that allows for better scanning where you can actually use the front sensor to point it at things? Yeah, I did invent it. A couple of my competitors definitely have mirrors that you can purchase along, you know, side by side with the app. But this particular one I designed for scratch on my own, I did the phone snugly. The ones that they sell, they're, it's one design to fit all. Right. And this is actually, you download for your particular iPhone and it just fits it super snugly. I love it. Hey, real quick, before we show off that mirror adapter, I have something I want to play and I think you guys put this together for the app, right? Oh yeah. Let me throw this in real quick. Very cool. That's so cool. Very cool. Zolan had, I don't know if you caught that earlier, but Zolan had a quick question. Thank you for the $2 Zolan. He was asking Ethan and Marcus, do you guys have a PayPal link so that people can donate to help the development of this? I hadn't even thought of that. It's funny to help. So you don't maybe get a PayPal link out there, huh? So if, or the gardening habit, as Zolan wants to support your hydroponics efforts there, Ethan. I love it. We actually have a video in the can video where we shot what's it about. About making pickles using herbs from my garden. Really? Really? I've always wondered how the pickles were made. That's good. How long does it take to brine a pickle, Ethan? I can't remember. Can't remember? Is it a couple weeks, a couple months? I guess maybe stronger. I can't remember half my videos either, so let's, no. Go ahead. I was going to say, how about what you have just asked, how long does it take to do a scan, Ethan? Is it fast? Well, it depends on how big the scan is. Okay. So what if you were just scanning yourself, like that picture we saw of you or some of your family members, like if you're just doing a person, a couple seconds. I can definitely answer that. So it's less than a minute. Like if it takes you more than a minute. Yeah, you're doing something wrong. I love it. I love it. So we're talking about the mirror and this is what we got for the mirror. So it looks like this is on Thingiverse. It's called Ethan makes 3D scanner mirror adapters and you can print this and it looks like it goes on to the front of your phone. And then it allows that LiDAR to do what? Bounce back at you or go forward or what? So the LiDAR center is at the top of your phone. I can show you. It's like right here. And so the mirror basically acts like a periscope. So right here. Okay. So the mirror that you work like a periscope. So then you can basically look at your screen and point your phone at stuff to scan stuff. Gotcha. And I heard some people. I know I see Steven the lightspeed and I think he'd been saying he got a bunch of mirrors. He threw them on Etsy. And the size for this purpose. Yeah. Yeah. And I think there was I don't know if there's anyone else doing that but I know he has an Etsy store with the mirrors and you can get them singly. You don't have to buy 50 like we talked about earlier. And then so the idea is you print this and then you slide the mirror into it. Right. Okay. Yeah. Thanks to lightspeed. He's the one who has Etsy store because he's the first one who offered and I really appreciate it. But yeah. So some people are going to have 3D printers and even the ones who do are going to need mirrors. So he threw up Etsy shop real quick with the extra mirrors that he had because you can't buy just one off of Amazon. Right. So got it. That's awesome. I bet it's just so cool that you guys have come up with such a cool app. It is so Star Trek-esque that to aim something and like replicate basically replicate it. Right. I love that. That's what Hannah just said. Welcome Hannah from the UK who's up late tonight. Hey Hannah. Yeah. It does look like a tricorder. So these guys are printed to scale. Okay. So what is that? You did have a question too was does the angling of the mirror create any skew in the scan at all? It doesn't. Now when you scan stuff without the mirror and then you import the scan into like 3D builders or something because STLs don't store the units. Right. So when you import it asks you what the units are. If you scan without the mirror the units are meters. So it comes in perfect scale. But if you use the mirror that throws it off a little bit not too much but that's the only sacrifice really for using the mirror. Got it. You know you do lose a little bit of because the infrared has to go through the glass hit the backside come back through the glass. It doesn't work quite as well as if you can if you can do it without the mirror. But I think it's a small sacrifice for just the ease of use. For sure. That's cool. And it's really cool that you can do it. So you know I think we definitely recommend everybody go check this out especially if you have one of the iPhones that this will work on hopefully across our fingers sometime soon in the future you could do it on an Android as well. I know we had some really good people in the chat recommending ways to do it and make it cross-platform and stuff. So maybe if you have those kind of ideas where can they find you to maybe give you ideas or help progress. You said you had a Facebook group. Was that the best place or an email or what are you thinking? So if you download the apps let's say you do have an iPhone there's a link in there to join the Facebook group but you can definitely feel free to reach me out on Twitter. Okay. I know I have Ethan's I think I can't remember if I put yours in it too. So the channel that Ethan has is called Ethan makes. Got him in the car. Perfect. So check out Ethan makes. I know I threw that in the description as well and I'll make sure we get Ethan's dad in there. So it's Ethan makes and Ethan makes 3D and Ethan's dad 3D on Twitter. You can always find them there. A lot of times you can find them here on Monday nights. So come chat with them here. And we definitely appreciate that. Are you guys going to hang out? We're going to do some hot makes next. Are you guys hanging out for that? I am. It's going to do homework. Homework time Ethan. He doesn't look thrilled. He doesn't look thrilled about that. Thank you for joining us though. Thanks guys. And keep up the good work and I eagerly await a hot makes on your pickles later. Yes. We're going to do some hot makes and we'll get them going. I want to do some hot makes on pickles. All right. Are we ready for hot makes? I think we're ready for some hot makes. I got a really good one. Yeah, you're starting it off, right? Yeah, I'm going to kick us off with a great one here. Are you ready for this? This is a surprise to nerdy Jay here. So this is a first time reveal. Oh, Andrew Rogers. Thank you very much. Thank you so much. Are you out of your mind, as Joel would say, right? And his comment for that was first surface mirrors would eliminate aberrations and shouldn't mess with the IR. Okay. I agree. I guess. I don't know. What do you think? Do you agree with that, Marcus? I don't know what a first surface mirror is. Yeah, so there's actually a funny, I just learned about first surface mirrors because there's a kick started going on. They're selling mirror adapters like mine and they reached out to me and I hadn't even heard about it. And so they're selling first surface mirrors. Maybe I should post a link for that too. Please. Tell us really quick what a first surface mirror is so we can all learn something. Yeah, so the craft mirror that I have here, it's just a cheap craft mirror that you get at the hobby store. Glass with reflective paint on the back. There's glass and then the reflecting is behind the glass. So it has to go through the glass and then come back through the glass. So you get a little refraction and you get a little bit of loss, of light through that. A first surface mirror, the very first surface doesn't go through the glass. So first surface it hits is reflective. Oh, wow. It's so literal. It's literally the first surface is reflective and the rest is just in support of that reflection. Well, that's interesting. What kind of material is it? Do you know? Some kind of a there's more than one kind. So there's this particular one that they're doing a Kickstarter on is aluminum. That's Hannah. That's aluminum to you. Yeah. Barnacles was talking about it on Twitter and some people were saying that you can open up a hard drive and the hard drive platters are first surface mirrors. Yes. Very interesting. I like it. They ordered one and they don't ship to April, but I'll make sure we get those. You know, I just tossed some hard drives too. That's really, that's a bummer because I would have loved to pop one of those things open to try that. But interesting. Well, hey, we learned something new. That's awesome. Are we ready to give it to HotMakes? Some HotMakes. All right. Let's hit those HotMakes. Gary, what's going on, buddy? Haven't seen you in a week. Hey, everybody. Everybody say hi to Gary. Hi, Gary. So, so, so Jim, yeah, every while Gary is himself included and everybody. So Jim, I did some interesting programming on reprogramming some iteration on Gary's programming this week. I've kind of introduced some innovative design algorithms to him. So I threw some subject matter material at him just to see what he would, you know, just generate for us. And I'm very, very pleased with the results. Would you like to see them? I definitely, I got to see this. Yeah. Gary, bring up the results. We have Nerdy J's Mobile Lube Changing Oil and Cellular Tower. I can't even say it. I think you need to read the tagline. Is this, is this our new t-shirt line? Is that what I'm saying? It is. It's got to go up on the HotMakes shop, man. Nerdy J's Mobile Lube t-shirt. Look at that. Changing Oil and Cellular Towers since HotMakes number 42. Changing the Oil and Cellular Towers. Brilliant. It's brilliant design. I love that there's a couple different, you know, a couple of different iterations. I love there's a color and a black and white. I'm a computer. I got to come up with options. Yeah. Options are good. Nerdy J's Mobile Lube. I'm glad you put mobile in there. I appreciate that. And you know, you always got to change that Oil and you always got to watch for those Cellular Towers. So, man. I tell you, I went in last week and my wife said she was crying. And she's just like, I was crying and I was like, thanks for provoking that. And she's like, it was gold. And then we had a lot of comments last week and a lot of people had a lot of fun with that. So this is awesome. Thank you so much. We're definitely, we're going to put this up on the shop. We'll throw it up in the Teespring shop. I'll let everybody know when it's out there and if you're watching on mobile, we'll throw it in the bottom there too. Just make sure to change your Oil before you watch on mobile. Yeah. Oh, got it. A bunch of people are saying I'd wear that. Sarah Johnson says can't breathe. I love it. Marcus, have you been changing the Oil in your cell phone lately? No. I can't find the plug. Where's my, where's my room shot? Thank you. The Cellular Tower is my favorite part of that and the Oil. But what about the toilet? Well, we couldn't keep it all. This is what we do. We'll do a separate one for that. It'll be a dirty Jay's plumbing. When Pooch put the terms in my algorithm thing, I can only do as much as I could do in like 0.0003 milliseconds. I didn't give him a lot of time. That's true. I love it, guys. That is phenomenal. Let us know in the chat what you think. I know we had a bunch of people laughing and saying they grab one and every third lube is free. Somebody said, that's always good. Someone says, can we get nerdy Jay's Alpha bit? Alpha, I can't even say that. Alpha bit is the same as everybody else's in America at least. But it just, you know, some things you say different and oil, oil. I can't even say, I can't even. I don't have time for the jibber jabber. I love it. That's amazing, guys. Thank you. Thank you. Way to kick us off, Geary. I have not seen that. That said, let's kick off the real hot makes now. What do we start with this week, Jim? We are going to start with, I got to get them all. I was so distracted about how awesome that was. I didn't get them pulled up yet, but we're doing it right now. Want to waste my time? Okay. There we go. So this week, we're going to start off with Sophia Wong. She says, oh, this is so cool. And if you click on this, it's mo at make TV. And it's our first DIY Neopixel LED skirt project inspired by Geekbomb projects, Adafruit and others. Check this out real quick as I shut my heater off before it blows up here. I love this. I didn't, she didn't give any detail or at least I didn't see in the post that I saw where the controller for all this. Obviously we have an accelerometer somewhere within the lining of this and we're seeing more and more of these LED based apparel and clothing. It's really neat. I love how it bounces. It's such a cool effect. Does it have like a physics simulation engine to it or something? That's really interesting. What do you think, Marcus? I think it's definitely kicked off by her action when she moves it. Yeah. It's neat. I wonder like how it just would in a regular like, does it do more, you know, from just regular walking or you have to be jumping around? Right now, power wise, they're using a small USB bank for power. If you're using effects with only a few number of LEDs, like the bouncing ball, it's enough for a full day. Well, I will have to go through and learn some more about this. I love this idea. I love the idea of clothes that do this. Yeah. Inventor square. The next word for whatever we can all get together with. We should all show up with these. It'd be tight at a rave. I like that. Maybe we'll throw them in the Nerdy J's auto lube shirts and, you know, maybe it'll be like in the oil can. Make it oil can where you tip over and it like. Sure. Nice. Sophie, we loved it. Amen. Brendan builds did one of these little snowmobile things. Let me just pop this open. This is a pretty cool little track. It's like a little snowmobile. I want to say it might be RC. But I'm not sure yet because he didn't really he didn't post much details. But it's so cool that, you know, you printed the tracks. You printed the whole little snowmobile. I remember seeing, I think it was him posting the track and it was like, does anybody know what this is? Right. And everybody was like, is it a watch band? It looked like a watch band. He said, no, it's inspired by that. Now it's all coming together. I never saw what the final answer was for that. Brendan and find out, you know, a little more about this because he didn't. There's not a lot out there, but I'm really curious where this goes. I don't know if it's done now or if I don't think it's done. It looks like he's got a little rack and pinion set up for the steering possibly out there. But I don't see any connection or servos or anything like that yet, but very. Yeah, very neat. He didn't respond. And then, you know, that brings us to the next one, which is an RC snowmobile. So check this out. We're have a theme today. Yeah, yeah. I mean, it's so cold and snowy here. Night RC snowmobile at night with lights. Yeah. You know, that needs to drive by those ice castles you were showing off last week. Yes. That'd be cool, huh? I think it's made a good horror movie. Yeah. Without your preface, I would not know what I was looking at. It looked like some sort of evil land lobster. Yeah. And I don't, yeah. I don't know what an evil land lobster. I like that. Yeah. So he says more night driving with the hashtag OP 3D RC snowmobile. It looks really good. They actually, the lights look really good. The light up good. This is the first test video with the lights and it'll be up on YouTube Sunday with a full release of files probably this week. So if you're interested in release. Yeah. This person 3D, 3D RC and C is going to release the full, you know, the full gamut. We'll say a files too. So that'll be cool because I would love one of these. Do you think Ethan would like one of these? Oh yeah. I think you think that is like, what is that? Hard to say. No. Well, I mean, you can kind of see some tracks there, right? Let's see if there's any daytime pictures of it. Hey. Daytime. Daytime. Nighttime. That's pretty good size. But I guess the tracks are its own. So I thought maybe we had some tire tracks to compare it to. I don't know. We need a snow banana for scale. Snow banana. Yeah. Yeah. Oh wow. Look at that. It's a snow airboat. I love airboats. Snow airboat. All right. I need to, we need to get a hold of this guy. Man, how many different 3D printed vehicles have we seen at this point? So obviously, you know, the RC OpenRC project. But then what was it? What's his name? Did the OpenRV. Right. Which was funny. Which was really just built on the OpenRC thing. But now the snowmobile, the airboat. What other 3D printed RC projects are there out there? But let me know in the chat. Now there's an airboat and I need it. This is phenomenal. Maybe it needs a little protective shroud. So your little Lego man driver doesn't get sucked into the intake of that thing. That's half the fun. So you were talking about the OpenRV. Yeah. We didn't get to see it this year, but he actually made an open fire truck too. Cool. I mean, the platform, I'm assuming it's all built on the same RC platform. He's just changing the bodies out, right? He's not really messing with the drivetrain. Oh yeah. I love it. All right. Next. What do we got? B.M. Hogan. Barry Mead in the car boy used raspberries and wild berries. I froze them last year and I did some tweaks to my raspberry. Very cool color. I hope this sticks around. So I mean, someone tagged Mead. You got to show some Mead. I don't know if you ever had Mead. You love Mead. Yeah. It's a honey-based alcohol, right? Right. Yeah. I think it's... Where is Maker Viking with us? Because I think... Is he big on Mead? Yeah. I'm pretty sure they're big on Mead, you know? But I love it. I got a need. A need for Mead, right? Yeah. Okay. A whole different avenue. We haven't even tapped, you know? I love it. Yeah. Next. Filament frenzy. He says he did it again. Meet Toucan, the new MMU masterpiece by Sidney. Printed on a Prusa MK3S with an MMU2S at .2. 136 hours, 3,000... Yeah, if I could talk. 3,368 tool changes and 11 colors. You ready to see this? I'm ready, baby. Check that out. That is hot. Oh. Oh, that's hot. That's hot. That's hot. I mean, holy moly. Look at the beak on that thing, man. Right. And hence. And hence. So last one I saw, was that a hummingbird we've seen in the past? So the Kingfisher was Sidneyx, right? And that was an amazing one that he gave. I don't think I've seen a hummingbird, but I could be right. I think you're right. It was by the Kingfisher. Yeah. This is just, I mean... Look at the plumage. The plumage. Look at it. I mean, this is awesome. I mean... Who's into birding out there, huh? Right. Huh? It looks like it says Toucan down here, which is cool. Toucan? His name? Is his name Sam? Ha! Maybe. You need some Froot Loops. You should sell that model to Froot Loops, Sidneyx. That is so good. Nice work, Filament Frenzy, on that print. 3,300 changes and 138-hour print. That's a six-hour print. That's bananas, man. So can you download this from PrusaPrinters, then? As a G code and then you just print it? Yeah. So there's a model link here. It'll take you to Sidneyx's page and you can get it from there. And Filament Frenzy is just a master of making these things come alive. It's crazy. That's a good question on the G code, though, Marcus. I don't know the answer to that. I'm guessing that Sidneyx has these models for sale. Right. And I know that he does release them for... because obviously Tom is printing these MMU. So I assume the multi-material is his, but I don't know if the slice and the actual G code is provided that way or if that's Tom's magic tuning that he does. I'm sure that's Tom's magic tuning. That's crazy. All right. What do we got next? How about Ryan Pimpush? I wasn't going to let this print defeat me, print it with a palette 2S. That's a hot print. It's a really... You'd look at that and be like, I would expect to see that at a Hallmark store, you know? Right. Like that's just... It looks just like one of those little ornaments you'd buy or a little... You know, one of those villages. You know, those people do those Christmas villages. Right. I'm assuming... I don't... Maybe that's what this puts for. You know, maybe he's doing these designs and making his own 3D printed... But look at that. That looks like some galaxy silver in there. If I'm not mistaken. I don't know if I can call out the filament from this. It could be anything. That'd be a good eye. I'm not that good at... I'm not like the filament librarian or gray beard or something like that. But look at those color choices. That's fantastic. I'm seeing more than four, too. So there must be something special going on. Silver, red, green, yellow. I think... So the newer version of... Is it on the canvas? I don't want to be talking about my behind right now. But I believe you can do filament changes like mid-print, you know, depending on how the model is. That's awesome. I mean, nice work, Ryan. And I tell you what, if you guys know Ryan, I don't know if I've ever seen him on the show before, but hit him up. Let them know. Him know that we were... You know, we put it on here. But I mean, nice. That's awesome. Hot. Hot. Thank you, RC Maniac 12. Yeah, Palette has posted how do you filament replacement. So it is possible, but obviously, there's a manual process to that. Right. So I think anymore you just buy glitter, everything in some white. Just glitter at all. Just glitter all the things. Just glitter at all. Lauren would. I like it. Oh, God. Just glitter at all. What do we got next? Ooh. This is the 3D print, man. I had to look at this because he was saying, like, this is the most beautiful failed print he's ever made. Right. And so it obviously didn't quite complete. But I mean, look at the detail in this model. It was very Jason Proust pattern to print kind of feel like at first when I saw this. But the resolution, I guess, on those changes, I wish we could get it a little bit bigger. I mean, that is so many tool changes right there for that. Like those are very thin layer, thin walls. Sorry. Thin thicknesses on those. But that looks fantastic. That's crazy. I wonder how long this thing took. They said it was a fail. But I mean, come on. Yeah. What was the complete design supposed to look like? That's the thing. I don't see it. I'm going to assume it's mirroring what the bottom pattern is. So I'm probably finished. Which is funny because those are like the easiest color changes at the end, right? So it's just like to get that far after all of that splicing is just crazy. I'm sorry. It wasn't splicing. It's an MMU2S. But yeah. I love the colors, especially that minty green, whatever that is. Yeah. Yeah. The color choices are phenomenal. We'll have to ask what it was supposed to look like. Maybe STL, bro. Next, the owl has landed. What I learned in my first project, all the parts from the same project doesn't mean they will all fit together correctly. This person printed three sets of eyeballs, two sets of pupils before he got them all to fit. But look at that. That's fantastic. That's a great print. I hadn't seen this one up until now. This is cool. So where is this from? I hadn't seen KM before. KM? I'm not sure. It's my first time hearing of them as well. Someone tagged them below here. Looks like Kathy O'Malley. Thank you, Kathy. And there's no other information. So all I know is, is this a cookie jar? Is that what I'm looking at here? That's a good question. Like where, you know, a head comes off here. Well, I don't know if the head's just meant to rotate. I was wondering if there was a mechanical element to the eyeballs. Rotate the head and maybe the eyeball, but that's all we have. It's a jar. People are saying it's a jar. Nice. And of course, Dan says who? Who? Yeah. Who? I mean, I love it. All right. Nice work there. Little hanging fruit. At Hobby Bauer, I've uploaded my 3D printable version of the NASA mission to the moon logo on the hashtag Artemis hashtag Prusa printers. And there's a link here to go, you know, the Prusa printers.org to see said upload. But I really like this. This is a really cool, you know, single or looks like a flat single color version too. But this person did it on the Artemis. It must have been just with color changes, right? Well, the mission itself is called Artemis. I don't know if they were talking about using the actual printer called the Artemis. Artemis one mission is the mission to the. Yeah. There you go. So if it's on Prusa printers and they included G code, I'm a guest. They printed it on a Prusa. No, it said I think it said Creality there. What was you see how there's a little tabs? Well, you clicked off the print. It doesn't matter. But I'm sure you can get them to get the file there. You print it. It's a neat model. We have a lot of people in the space under three. Mm hmm. So it looks like, oh, I maybe they painted it. I get it now. I don't know. I love it. It's cool. Cool. Very cool. Next. Jim says cool. Jim says cool. This was the coolest thing I've seen since last week. I like to call it the ghost ship. The way Benchy ever. See if I get a better one. Look at that. I mean, we're going to bring this in. And so we can look at it a little closer. But I mean, yeah. Tim, your infill is showing. Excuse me. Your infill is showing. Pardon me, but your infill is showing. No, we love Tim. I don't know if you've ever followed Tim's channel. He's done some pretty cool stuff. Check out D-Wit 3D. He's up in Canada. That is a, what happened? You forgot some perimeters on that. At first I thought he was doing some modifiers to show off. And then at some point you just get committed to like, well, I guess let's just see how this finishes out. Someone says level the bad Tara Johnson. It's like the black pearl version of the Benchy. What's that? It's like the black pearl version from Pirates of the Caribbean. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah. I'm pretty sure the outside layers probably didn't print on this. I mean, I don't even know what. Yeah. It looks like arrow chocolate. I love arrow chocolate, by the way. Nice work there, Tim. I have, I mean, I'm gonna, this is awesome. I don't even have words. That is one you put up on your shelf and have you done something like that one? Marcus, I'm sorry. Nope. My prayers don't look, don't look interesting at all. That's a solid fail. That's a solid fail right there. You know, the hot, it's not quite a hot mess. It's, but it's a unique. Yeah. Unique fail. I like it. Maybe he forgot to change the oil on his machine. He probably did. Everything needs more oil. Bull. I love it. I love it. Well, that was our hot makes of the day. And I liked it. What'd you think, Marcus? You were here for the hot makes. We did lie. I think 10 or 11 of them today. I know we wanted to get some good amount of time with you guys, but what do you think of the hot makes? What do you like? Yeah, thanks. Yeah, great as ever. Nice. Ray, that's a rave of you. It's a rave. I got to get my MMU working. That's for sure. Have you been having trouble with it? I have to take her with it. I have to take her with it. Yeah. It takes a little tuning, but once you get it dialed in, it's a lot more forgiving now than it was. They've done a lot for tip tuning and getting it. Obviously, since the new, the plus sensor package and the S sensor package actually. So I don't know if you have the MMU2 S upgrade, but that helps a lot. Yeah, I have to get one. I don't have one. So maybe there's that. I will warn you, Jim. It takes a lot of time to play with it. Not a lot of time, but it, you know, master. What I'm going to do is we're going to fly Filament Frenzy out. You know, we're going to get what he uses, set it up, show me how to use. No, I'm just joking. You know what I mean? Reveal his secrets. So you're just going to have Tom do it for you. Filament Frenzy secrets revealed. With that being said, I tell you what, are you ready to rant? I am. Let's say goodbye to Marcus. Marcus, thank you so much for joining us today and telling us about the app. I think we've had seen a lot of excitement and get your PayPal link up so people can donate to the... Yes, all right. Do that. When you're ready, let me know. And I'll put it in the description of this so people going back and find it as well. I know we can always find you on Twitter. We can find you on the Facebook group. If that's open to everybody, I'm not sure. It is. It's a public group. Probably only one named EM3D. So there's a lot of love going on in the chat right now. Thank you saying everybody saying thanks. Thank you so much. And Ethan, thank you. I saw earlier he chatted. He said something about... He heard something about a snowmobile and he has one. He just doesn't have a license to drive it yet. Is that true? You need a license to drive a snowmobile? Maybe I'm wrong. Ethan's a ways from getting a license. I love it. Nice. Well, I tell you what. Thank you again. Like Pooch said, we appreciate having you guys on. Thank you for coming by, talking about the app. And yeah, we'll talk soon. I know you guys have some awesome stuff always. So thank you. Thanks for having us on. Ethan always loves talking about his making. Thank you so much, man. We're looking forward to that pickle video too. All right. We'll get that posted. All right, guys. Have a great one. Good luck. Who's Lambs? Oh, man. This week, this just really got... Jim, this happened to me now twice in the last two weeks on two different things. And so I teased earlier that having the connector on your phone has its downsides. One of the downsides is if one of your kids happens to knock it off the charger with the thing plugged in, it can break off inside the port of your phone, and then good luck getting that out. Right? And so thankfully that didn't happen on my phone, but it did happen on my daughter's iPad, rendering that unusable until I figure out how to get the charging jack replaced on that. So I need to take it down to one of those Apple kiosks that can actually change that out. I tried all the tricks the internet had to offer, which was basically like put some super glue on the other end and see if you can get it to stick and pull it out. Yeah, that worked a treat. That ended up just jamming some super glue, I think, and they're probably making the whole problem worse. So that stinks. So obviously any time I have the opportunity now to use inductive charging or anything where I don't have to actually plug in is great, I really like that stand, which is why I really like my watch where it's like you don't have to worry about plugging jacks in and it does wonders for making things waterproof and all that. And so that happened, which was just very fresh, very frustrating. And then just last week, after that, I had this happen. Now, if you can't tell what this is, what this looks like should look like this. Is this ever happened to any of you guys? And so you're like, OK, well, you're doing it wrong, right? You're plugging in. So this just so happens to be my only way to plug in music, outside music, and my truck. I still have an old deck on my truck. And so I have a little ox in jack that a lot of people do. And yet again, I had another kid diving across the bench seat in the front of the truck and just kicked this completely out of the jack. No big deal losing this because I got a bajillion of them, but good luck getting it out of the other part of the port. So now I've got a useless headphone jack in my truck. Why is there no good solution for removing those things? Do I have to literally take my dash part to get a new jack? I guess I'm just SOL. So that is my rant for this week. If you have a solution to that, please tell me in the chat because having that happen to me twice in two weeks is just beyond coincidence. Somebody's somebody's angry at me up there. I have a I think I think you're doing it wrong. Like you said, I don't know. I mean, I've broken a few of those, but not inside of inside the female port. I'm like, oh, man, someone said jam a potato in there and pull it out. I don't abuse my electronics either. This is what happens if you have kids that abuse everything. So hot glue hot glue. What if you hot glue the hot glue something to it and pull it out? It's it's it's so tiny. Like I don't know if you ever seem like like look at the lightning port on on a. Yeah. I found focus focus. They're very it's very tiny. I've tried a couple of different things like even my little precision tweezers and all that. It's just no go. It's no go. I don't know. So if anybody else has some other idea, electron, yes, it's electronics abuse. Somebody report me. Someone says 10 bucks for a new radio works. But no, I yeah, I've broken a few cables like that, but never inside of a port. Mostly it's on accident, like stepping on one or, you know, something like that, but never inside of a port. But that brings us back. Try to hammer. Yes. But that brings us full circle back to to the thing from things that you've tagged, right? Yeah, you don't worry about that problem. No, no. And I'm really happy that they, you know, Apple like they're often just late to the party. Right. So they didn't implement she, you know, charging standard until what was it seven or eight iPhone seven or eight. Yeah. Just buy a new truck. Yeah. That's my girlfriend's suggestion. Anytime something bad happens that we would just have to move. Yeah. Yeah. Just buy a new truck. I love it. I love it. But yeah, it's not registered to win. This is your very last chance. You got about one minute to do so. We're going to pull the drawing in about a minute. So if you're not registered to win, there's a description, a link in the description of the video and nightbot has been blowing it up all night every five minutes. Um, no excuses. Get registered. Uh, and, and let's give away a $50 gift card. Yeah. Yeah. I'm excited for this man. Thank you to things again for being our sponsor for this. We've had a lot of winners and we're doing this every Monday in Monday through February. And yeah, I'm looking at the spreadsheet right now. And I think a bunch of you did not sign up yet. So do it. Who doesn't want a $50 gift card to Amazon, man? Even if you think you did it before, do it again. Just in case you got one minute to do it. Do it. Do it now. I see him now. Pop. So good. Oh, wait, wait, wait. Lama says lightning cable is easy. Needle slash pin. Two of them. There's a little room on both sides. Pry equally to pop out. I'm going to try it. Lama. I'm going to try it again for you. I did just get a sewing kit with really fine needles for another issue because I pop, I'm getting fat and I popped a button off my pants. So maybe that's a future rant. I don't know. So I had to get a new sewing kit. So now I have some needles. Maybe you're sewing a new dress for the ball or something. Well, I'm sewing my little jump LED lights on my dress. Yes. So, and, and I know we're going to talk to Ethan and Ethan's dad. I know he has some promo codes for the app that he wanted to give. We're going to do that soon in a video in a Monday night coming up. Yeah. That's a solid giveaway. Yeah, that is. That's what 20 bucks, man. Right. And an awesome app. Everyone I talked to said they love the app. So that that's really cool. All right. Last chance. Last chance. I'm going to the spreadsheet right now. I still see stuff popping in there. This is your last chance. We're running a little bit late, but that's, you know, normal fashion. Don't forget to check out hot makes every Monday night. If you have not been here before pooch, tell them what we're about. I said it before. I'm going to say it again. We are about to bring you the best in hot makes entertainment here on the internet. But the way it works is quite simple. You put the hashtag. That's the pound sign for the old school telephone user people. Hashtag hot makes on anything that you see on Twitter soon. Insta that you think is. Awesome. That needs to be shared with the world that. You're worried that don't happen to be in the same point on your timeline and have the same visibility because they don't have the same Twitter followers as you do. So you share with the world. It's a, it's a, it's a sharing experience. Sharing is caring, right, Jim? And we do that. And then, and then we all benefit, right? We all benefit. It's altruism. It's amazing. It's, it's bringing out the best of what social media has to offer. Not the hate. We focus on the hotness, not the hate. That doesn't make any sense, but you get the idea. I love it. Well, I tell you what, it is time to draw. Um, it's shift three. It's shift three on your keyboard. Thank you, Sean. Gold for the hashtag. Shortcut. And I worked with Shane. Um, Shane is, is hooking us up with this, this way to get stuff off of Instagram. And I was working with him, uh, late last week, I think. And, um, we, we got some cool things coming. I think it's going to pan out. I think it's going to work out good. We're tweaking it a little bit. Um, but so far it's, it's looking really cool. So I'm hoping maybe by this time next week or soon, I'll be able to announce start, start hitting them. Now what's really cool is when we're pulling things, people are already tagging hot makes on Instagram. So we're a lot. We're going to have to do the Insta episode on the girl, which is focused on the Graham baby. The Insta episode. Is that shorter? Uh, yeah. It's instant. Well, yeah, Ethan makes to say he was that he wish, he wished to put your answers actually dogs complaining about stuff. So, you know, that'd be pretty fun. I love that. Here we go. We have the wheel. It is spinning. Wheel of fish. You win nothing. Now you win $50 gift card to Amazon. The winner this week is. Thanks to me. Congratulations. Long time viewer. First time winner. Amazon gift card. We'll document that. I will get it out to her ASAP. And we'll get you that. Doc. Yeah. It's recorded in the internet for perpetuity now. So congratulations. You know, I didn't ask. Are they here? Yeah. You must be present to win. Right. Oh no. She's, she's, I saw them chatting earlier. Congrats. Oh no. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. You have one minute to make yourself known. Log in frantically entering password to log in. Man. We might have to, we might have to, for the first time, spin again. For what? Uh-oh. Someone's saying not here. Uh-oh. Got well there. Or they're wishing that they're not here. They don't show up right now. You got a tag. You got a tag. Good night all. Everybody's saying good night all. Oh no. Hot makes after party on Justin's channel. So check out Justin T. Well. Live countdown. The rules are rules, man. You got to be present to win. Yeah. So here we go. Uh-oh. We're bringing it back up. I'm sorry. Give it to her anyway. Give it to her anyway. I don't know, Steven. Rules are rules. Dems are rules. Dems are rules. Sorry. We didn't make them. Actually we did make them, but we follow them. Yeah. All right. We're spinning. Later. Later. All right. All right. Here we go. We're doing it one more time. Better be here. Better be here. Sorry. And what's this here? I think I saw it. I think I'm pretty sure. Congrats. People are tagging them. People are tagging them. People are tagging them. Tagging them. Holler at us. Holler at us. Everybody's tagging them. They're holding up the show. We're like taggable. Say yay. Woohoo. Congratulations. Anything. Should be. Come on. We're going to do this all night. Oh, this is what happens when you don't hang around to the end. A few moments later. Come on. Verified. Oh. Oh, Chris says it's verified. Wait. I mean, you know what? I only have top chat. There it is. Woohoo. There we go. All right. Second place is first place tonight. Congratulations, Matthias. We'll figure out how to get you second and in your first. Moses did not win tonight. I'm sorry. Keep trying, buddy. Keep trying. You're going to win one of these days. Maybe next time. I appreciate all the penguins on my head tonight. I thought that was a fun change, right? Guys, that was a great show. Thank you for all the contributions. Thank you for all the love. Thank you for all the suggestions. I'm going to find out where this ox port remover tool is. And I'm going to get these one because I need my truck audio. I've been listening to the radio again because I'm old school now. This is the only music I can listen to in my truck. Oh, not the rainbow. The radio is good. Found a good station. Anyway. Hey guys, don't forget about that Kickstarter. They're doing the little, what was it? A bracket, right? For the 3d scanning. I think we'll put it. We'll put a link right now in the chat. But I know they mentioned a Kickstarter. That was for like a way to put brackets on for 3d scanning and he said they reached out and I don't know a ton about it. So I just kind of sound like I'm babbling, but we'll drop a link in the chat right now. If you want to check it out. I can't back anything. I've never tried. So don't say I told you to buy it, but hey, check it out anyway. Anything else? Anything else? Nope. That was a good show. Thank you. Thank you for the next week. We got all cut. You guys, I can't wait. We, there were so many things that we have to reveal this in these coming weeks that we're really excited to show up. So you got to tune in every Monday. What was that? Don't teaser teaser. Maybe you'll find out in a future episode of hot makes. So hey, by the way, if you watch my live, I forgot to say the the new toy DIY to is printing printing. I'll post some pictures after the show. Thank you guys so much. We're way over time. Go check out Justin's channel where they have an after party. If you want to hang out with those guys. And as always, we will see you next week right here on the edge of tech. 6pm central. Later, everybody. Have a good night. Bye.
