I make a quick release plate for the SONY VCT-R620 Tripod using Blender. The 3D model is made with 3D printing in mind.

  1. Perfect for a novice/beginner! This was a perfect tutorial, I'm also new to drawing in 3D for printing it and wanted to see if I can use Blender to do this. I also want to draw 1:1 copies of real world objects, not toys or models (as other videos demonstrate).

    When you showed what you wanted to draw, I thought it was going to be a extremely complicated drawing, but the way you took it step by step, illustrated how to analyse the object and translate it to simple lines and faces. There can be easier ways of doing this, but since you used the most basic steps, they can translate to any other object, where shortcuts normally work well in one scenario and completely fail in another. Thx!

  2. you lame dude im only because im stuck in this class were only i can look up tutorial's on things and im finna change my schedule but thank u for running my time down with this 30 min video thank u bye.

  3. Thanks Mad's – I always learn something watching your ecTech vids. I really appricate all the work you must put in. You cover a wide range. The last one I watched was on the 40 watt laser engraver. Keep up the great work!

  4. I find the modeling with the "Intersect Boolean" (Ctrl + F) goes much faster. Give it to the version 2.77 – Straight with holes or cut out of objects. Only use the Triangulate Modifier before exporting. This gives a better result when slicing.

  5. At 0:10 or sometime sooner I expected a "Nah I'm just messing with you guys! 😀 I don't talk like that Har har har!" and then you'd talk as if you'd talk to a friend or something. Instead I feel like a teacher or principle of a school or someone else you rather not talk to. ._.
