There are many 3D printing materials out there that you can make use of. I’ve 3D printed with quite a few of them such as PLA, ABS, PETG for filaments, and resins like ABS-Like resin and flexible resin. I decided to write an article detailing what some of the most common materials are for 3D…
3D printing is versatile, but people wonder whether 3D printers only print plastic. This article will look into what kind of materials 3D printers can use. Consumer 3D printers mainly use plastic like PLA, ABS or PETG which are known as thermoplastics since they soften and harden depending on the temperature. There are many other…
ABS used to be the most popular 3D printing material before PLA, so I wondered what the best printing speed and temperature would be for ABS filament. The best speed & temperature for ABS depends on what type of ABS you are using and what 3D printer you have, but generally, you want to use…
PETG has been growing in popularity since people realized how great its properties are, but people wonder what the best printing speed and temperature is for PETG filament. The best speed & temperature for PETG depends on what type of PETG you are using and what 3D printer you have, but generally, you want to…

There are quite a few 3D design software out there for 3D printing, but many people ask whether ZBrush is good for 3D printing. I decided to look into how ZBrush works and if it’s worth you using it for your 3D models. There are many details behind ZBrush that you’ll want to know, so…
When you use a resin 3D printer, you may get popping sounds and grinding noises in machines such as the Anycubic Photon Mono & the Elegoo Saturn. These can get annoying after a while, so I decided to look into why these sounds happen, and whether you can fix them. To fix resin printer noises…
3D prints are very versatile and many people wonder whether you can 3D print threads, screws, bolts, and other similar types of parts. After wondering about this myself, I decided to look into it and do some research to figure out the answers. There are a lot of details that you’ll want to know so…
Resin prints go through a lot during the printing process, sometimes needing to be repaired due to leaks, being too brittle and so on. I decided to do some research into the best ways to repair resin prints so you can get better results. Have a read through this article for important details and methods…
I’ve had trouble in the past trying to remove the PTFE tube from my hotend on my Ender 3, so I decided to look into proper techniques of how to do it on 3D printers. This article should point you in the right direction to finally solve this issue so keep reading through to get…
