Alright, so Tyden, you're gonna have to fill me in. What are we unboxing here?
So we're unboxing a metal 3D printer from a local company called Repidia.
It is very similar to like a standard 3D printer where you take some kind of material, extrude it,
and deposit it onto a base, and then post treat it afterwards.
However, this you can do metal, whether it's steel, they're also starting to investigate
some other materials like copper, and a couple of other grades of steel.
I just don't want to cut the wrong thing, because that would be a very expensive mistake.
It's a big package, it came in two. Yeah, so they're based in Vancouver, in downtown.
So this didn't actually travel all that far.
So they didn't have to put it in a whole crate or anything like that.
I see.
Which is kind of nice.
I guess I can open this from the side you can see.
So that's the actual printer itself.
What is this? Right below it.
Some goodies on the inside.
Oh my goodness, this thing looks very expensive.
Yes, many, many, many, many dollars.
Many dollars, but also very much a segment from all of the team.
And the big boy, which is the furnace.
We're not going to fully open this up yet, but we'll at least get all the wrapping off.
That's why we're not opening it up.
I've gotten a summary of some of the things, but not everything.
Okay, so this, no, no, so, so it's banned.
No, no, it doesn't. Floatplain probably gets to see all of the struggles.
We actually keep in the cells.
They don't get to see it.
Sorry, you don't get to see the inside. Oh no.
Here's a fun part. This is the power cable.
Oh my God.
Yeah, we had to get a specific power on just for this machine because it draw it,
because the furnace draws so much power to get heated up.
It's actually very well isolated on the inside,
but to get it up to temperature quickly, you need a lot of power.
So it's a fully electric furnace on? Yes.
Yeah. Yeah, so it's an electric furnace and it's actually a vacuum furnace.
So they pull the pressure down a bunch on the inside to help with the sintering
and de-binding process.
So we have an argon tank that'll feed into it to give the atmosphere inside
a nice and pleasant feel for metals to be sintered.
Lots to come with these machines and we're all very excited about it.
It's high.
What are we planning? Are we allowed to do this on camera?
Like, what are we planning on doing? That's a hell of a question. Yeah.
Lots of things. So Creator Warehouse has some plans for this machine for prototyping some of our equipment.
The Labs is definitely going to have some uses for it,
whether it's making jigs or whatever. And then we're going to use it for a couple of videos that we already know are up and coming
and likely lots beyond that.
We're kind of trying to get a full view on how the machine works
and how we can use it before we really know what all we can do with it down the road.
I'm sure Alex will have plenty of janky cooling solutions that will come out of this machine.
Which I'm very excited for. But a lot of opportunity, a lot of potential, right?
Oh, for sure. Yeah, definitely. We're really excited.
What if we made drone blades?
Well, we just said, you know, the new Torinol blades from MIT,
we just made a whole bunch of them. We could probably do that.
Maybe. That would need a lot of rigid. Might be possible.
We could do an all metal drone. All 3D printed drone.
Including the blades. Including the blades. We could do some of those eight blade ones.
Those are kind of nuts. Oh, I can one up you. We could theoretically print the coil.
Yeah. Yeah.
Oh my gosh.
Okay. Nice. What's the name of the printer going to be?
Have we given the name? That's out of my, that's out of my purview.
I'm not that creative. Because they had, they had all Pokemon names. So we got to find the name for the printer.
It probably does, but it's probably in software.
Hang on.
No, this one doesn't have it yet.
It's probably, it probably has to be plugged in before you, before it gives it to you.
Yeah, it just says P1. Wait, so all the lab stuff have Pokemon?
No, no, no, no. All of these printers. Ah, I see.
All of their machines, they give them names.
So it's already named. We're not giving you the name. I'm sure we will also give it a name,
but it has a name.
Charmander? Charizard? Made.
Those are taken. Already taken? Yeah.
They have, they have, they've put out, I actually don't know how many machines, but many, several.
I'm excited.
Comes with a toolbox. Whoa.
Any tools in there or just... It's just literally a toolbox.
I'm sure it comes with things. I'm assuming everything in there is probably fine.
System spare kit. Oh yeah, just lots of replacement parts and tools and stuff.
Nice.
Sweet. It smells. We got a brand new nut.
Nut rounder. Nut rounder. I mean both.
It's a metric nut.
Okay. Those are full planes so we can swear.
That's kind of, but also not true.
Yeah. Sweet. All right.
I think that's probably it for this for now. Okay. Sweet.
Stay tuned. I'm excited, man.
I'm going to send this service for it.
We have a very big plug here.
This is the furnace power.
Wrapped very well. Perhaps a bit too well.
I can already tell the things that Chang gets though.
Oh.
When you just need to pull all the power for all the times.
Oh my God. Do you want to see where it goes into? Yeah.
It's over.
Chang's plug needs the Chang's port.
Yeah. The thing is huge.
Funny thing is I'm pretty sure that this shielded cable on the wall
is actually smaller in diameter than the cable that comes out of the machine.
Oh my God.
What? I didn't take my bag or this one.
Oh my God.
Do you know where the argon bottle ended up? Yeah.
Very heavy. So this is the argon bottle? Yeah.
Yeah. And then...
That gives the furnace an inert atmosphere that won't react with the metal when it's being centered.
That's a lot of argon. Yeah.
It'll last us for a long time. Drop. Yep.
I don't know. A tinon per skin.
This is heavy to the point where I think even if I tried I could pick it up.
Tinon is really tall by the way, so... 6'4".
It's depending on the day.
