How to find FREE 3D Printing models using search engines

Grabcad is amazing

When using google to search for free 3d files, I get almost all links that have a ton of advertisement, request personal information, some ask what is your commercial e-mail, are you buying or selling, create an account...etc..etc. Its just ridiculous trying to get free 3d files. almost impossible..I got 1 file and said the object was 30 x 130 mm. The final print was 3mm x 22mm...!!!! and I had to go thru many ads to get that file..

Thanks, great info 👍🏼

I really want to get into three D printing, but
I'm living very close to train track that shakes the building.
Or should I just farm out the project?

Hello can you please tell me where can I learn the post processing required to fix the 3d models into printable form?

why is this gay reek

Since this video there have been noteable advancements in learning based representations for meshes and scenes. Meaning we now have text to 3D retrieval and also image to 3D etc.

GrabCAD has been very useful for me to put references into Fusion360 and then model parts on top of that. Instead of sitting there with calipers recreating my own models.

Search isn’t my biggest issue. It’s a central library of prints I like/liked/want to look at later. Favorites or Collections, for example

is there links to these websites so that I can use?

one thing you didn't mention:
industrial suppliers like McMaster-Carr just publish 3d models of many of their parts, you can thank AvE for that trick

Great stuff Angus.. I am trying to find - recreate an A pillar grab handle lower screw cover for my 80 series Landcruiser and to purchase a replacement they want $13.50+postage for just one cover (out of stock and has been for ages) .. where would I go to find a file that will help me recreate it so that I can print one myself on my Ender3v2.. I have just looked on all of these websites you just mentioned and nothing is to be found...

Thank you

Helpfully info thank you

You are the best
Very Good
Very Nice

Anyone know the answer to that retraction issue? My printer does that lol

I didn't want to spend around $50 for a Poe's black X-wing. So I went on thingivers and printed it for free.

Thingy verse

Surely thr point of a 3d printer is 3d model things you want?

Hi, thanx for sharing this amazing video. I was wondering if there is a possibility if there is a website where you can drop the link of a model in the website and then download it.

I might watch this even if I had no interest in 3D printing, just for the sheer charisma of the guy

Noice! TY!!

super helpful, thanks

Or you could just go to thingyverse.

thanks Angus, very helpful as usual

Or... You get yourself Fusion360 and do it yourself 😛

Great video thanks

is there a program where i can put a structure onto bricks or other parts .now everithing is flat

Yea...one of the big issues continues to be the intermingling of high end 3d game assets with 3d printer files.....I dont need 3.2 million polygon full color files...i just need a good quality stl please :)

Is there any Midjourney type for 3D Models?

I HATE sites that require you to sign up to download or search

Just echoing what has been said: McMaster is amazing for an immense amount of hardware. Strongly recommended. Haven't found a model that I couldn't use. Sometimes their modeling technique takes some getting used to but otherwise, very solid

Thanks for this

I typed in yeggi to search for some prints, and it came up with totally irrelevant prints. No mayter how I worded the search.

Hello, we are trying to make a new product, but there is a problem with the mold, so we are going to make it in 3D print.
If possible, please give me an estimate. Attach a 3D file.
Quantity: 160 units.

Sorry noob lol the free stl files do they come preset? Like size and temp etc...

What would you recommend for resin 3d printers and what would happened if I used a pla print on a resin printer

Awesome video - very helpful- thank you 🙏

People are looking for Overwatch, Groot and... uhm... Demonetization!

Made me chuckle :D

Anyone out there know where I can order it custom design? I tried making some myself but some ideas are beyond my skill and I can't find them already made even using tips in the video..

Is there a marketplace for 3D printing services to get something printed from various providers?

Nice, Thanks for this.

Fusion 360 can place objects from McMaster Carr and TraceParts directly in the program.

You find the files on the gatalog

Some real lifehacks

McMaster-Carr is great place to find cad/step files for hardware and random materials. I've printed brackets, levers, bolts, nuts, extrusions that i've downloaded from there, for free.

Worried about demonetization and then tells us where we can go to find digital virgins… 😂 (I’m just playing great video!)

funny that i never heard about yeggi before even tho i'm into 3d printing for over 5 years

I have seen McMaster-Carr used like Trace Parts
