I *LOVE* that I get to retweet
@elonmusk
AND post a

video AT THE SAME TIME.
I know not everyone knows what Elon means when he says what he said below, so watch this video. It's a fantastic explanation of The Great Filter.
Shipping Company: “We have attempted delivery twice of your package, and that is the maximum number of attempts.”
Me: “We have cameras at this location, there have been no delivery attempts.”
Shipping Company: “Oh, I am sorry, will tomorrow work?”

I RUN THE MOST DANGEROUS CHANNEL ON YOUTUBE, I guess?
Never thought a Fusion 360 tutorial on how to make a slingshot would get me this comment.
WATCH THE DANGER HERE:
Got to nerd out with

today! You’ll get to see the amazing thing we were talking about very, very soon.
Adam is a solid human. 100%.
Many don’t know that this is me every 8 weeks. I get an infusion of medicine so that my rheumatoid arthritis is kept at bay and I can continue being able to walk and use my hands.
It’s not too bad, they have decent WiFi. :)
Did you know the
@LinusTech
water bottle isn’t just for indoor hydration? I filled it with ice and water and took it to the ballpark and it works outdoors as well!

It was 5 years ago today that I logged into YouTube and started a new channel called 3D Printing Nerd.
Wow. 5 years!
Thank you to EVERYONE who has watched, commented, shared, and high fived :)
I cannot even formulate the words to properly thank such an amazing global community. I’m humbled by the love and support. In the end WE raised over $55,000 for Seattle Children’s Hospital during 8+ hours of streaming live.
I love you all. Thank you. ❤️
New York attempting to pass a bill requiring a background check to purchase a 3d printer shows you just how out of touch many who legislate are.
MY GOAL, and the goal of 3D Printing Nerd, has ALWAYS been education, and we will continue to educate and inspire, without the need to…
HOLY CRAP.
Go see
@transformers
when it’s out June 9. So much heart, wonderful cast, absolutely incredible soundtrack.
THE END OMG. No spoilers, but legit, GOOSEBUMPS.

TOMORROW, I’m giving away these 4 3D printers. I’ll tweet out a time and a location, and the first 4 to show up get a free 3D printer.
Details tomorrow :)
It was 6 years ago TODAY I was at my computer, logged into YouTube, and decided to create a new channel to share in the fun I was having with
#3dprinting
. NEVER did I imagine I would end up where I am today.
Thank you, to everyone, for being a part of this wonderful journey.
Remember this wall? It was the backdrop for the set when I filmed at home. The bottom 5 rows were NEVER FINISHED because it wasn’t seen in camera.
Until today. I finished my wall. It looks AWESOME. I deserve ice cream.
Misconception: Northern areas aren't good for solar power. Too many clouds.
However! There's a 35% difference between the amount of sunlight hitting New York City verses the Mojave desert.
Seattle barely needs more panels than LA to provide the same power. There's just so much
Today is my son’s birthday. His name is David, and today he is an active and awesome 12 year old. His entry into this world was VERY scary, and I share the story each year.
Please join me in wishing him a VERY happy birthday!
9 years ago today, about this exact time, my family had all gone to sleep, and I was WIDE AWAKE with my very first 3d printer - the
@ff3dprinters
Creator Pro.
I took these photos of my first print earlier that day - a simple two-piece top in ABS.
Who would have thought that…
Wow, almost forgot, it was 4 years ago TODAY - April 3, 2015, that my YouTube channel “3D Printing Nerd” was started.
WOW, quite a lot has happened in those 4 years, wouldn’t you say? :)
BACK IN A WRX!
I sold my 2022 Ford Maverick and picked up a 2006
@subaru_usa
WRX. The ‘06 WRX is my favorite, and I had an opportunity and wasn’t going to pass this up.
YES, will be 3D printing things for it. Happy early Father’s Day to me! 🤩😎😍
SO SO HAPPY!!!!
I joined a YouTube MCN in April hoping it would help with some things revenue and business related. They did so, so very little and didn't come through with promises, and yet charged a lot of money.
TODAY I AM FREE!!!
FINALLY got EVA FOAM filament from

well. This is the
@3DArtillery
GENIUS laying it down. 235c 30mm/s
It’s freaking EVA Foam filament. Blows my mind.
It was at this very hour 1 year ago TODAY I left the Adobe offices for the last time and began my career as a host and content creator.
ONE YEAR HOLY COW!

Look at the sign on my local coffee shop!!!
This is Cafe Aroma, on the corner of 5th and 165th in Shoreline, WA.
PLEASE get a selfie with a “Small Joel” and tag me if you do!
One continuous

with changing angles & no supports, sounds impossible? Thanks to

it’s very possible!
This 360 degree

print took full advantage of a variety of operators on our data-driven

to generate one continuous toolpath.
WOW.
@Ford
just dropped off THIS Maverick! Said I get it for a week. It has the FITS package, so I get to 3D print things for it.
This is going to be a fun week :)
I’ve seen the Hobby Lobby ad from last year going around, so I think it’s a good time to say:
I don’t care who you love, who you pray to, what color your skin is, or how old you are. You are awesome, you are loved, you are welcome.
Do your best to spread love & kindness.

“First, do no harm” - tech reviewers aren’t doctors, so this is dumb to say.
@MKBHD
should tell the truth, and give his thoughts no matter his subscriber count.
It would be unethical for him to do otherwise.
I find it distasteful, almost unethical, to say this when you have 18 million subscribers.
Hard to explain why, but with great reach comes great responsibility. Potentially killing someone else’s nascent project reeks of carelessness.
First, do no harm.
