3D printing on Youtube: trends and takeaways
There are MANY YouTube channels about 3D printing.
Since our last update, the number of 3D printing-related YT channels has grown sharply, showing how active the 3D printing community is. We now have 79 channels on this list, and many of them are growing really fast!
Live streaming is on the rise.
In 2016, YouTube added a live stream option and many 3D printing creators are making the most of it.
Often longer than regular videos, YouTube live streams are used for live unboxing videos but also to make innovative formats such as the 3D Printing Tonight show by JAT.MN.
The vast majority of 3D printing Youtubers are – surprise – white men. That’s a fact, and it’s becoming somewhat preoccupying, as diversity in media is always important (yes, YouTube is a media!). In terms of gender balance, we only list a handful of women with a 3D printing Youtube channel, and that’s not enough. Let’s not even get started on the overwhelming caucasian domination…
This hot topic is of course not limited to 3D printing and not easy to tackle but some voices are trying to make themselves heard, from Naomi Wu to the more controversial 3DPConfidential on Twitter. The diversity issue and lack of visibility for minorities in the makers’ community is definitely a hot topic that we hope will be addressed collectively in the future.

YouTube is a great (and free!) promotion channel for 3D printer brands.
3D printing companies are now using YouTubers to launch and promote their new products, by sending test units to prominent community members, sometimes flying them to events. Among the most successful 3D printer launches relying on heavy YouTube promotion were the Prusa i3 MK2, the Ultimaker 3, and the BCN3D Sigma R17.
Sending test units to 3D printing Youtubers can be a very efficient strategy when your machine is on point but can also backfire (ask the guys at Tiko or Tevo…). Best practices include building a friendly relationship with these Youtubers and the 3D printing community, ensure they have all they need to carry out the tests in optimal conditions, and address any issue or negative feedback which may arise.
Also, make sure your 3D printer is a great product!
Looks like the @bcn3dtech Sigma R17 season has officially started!

How to make money with a Youtube channel?
Advertising
The easiest way to monetize a YouTube channel is advertising: YouTube being a part of Google, it is very easy to start showing ads on your videos through the AdSense program. To earn money from views on your videos, you can show banners or video ads in your videos and generate revenue every time a viewer will click on an ad.
Affiliate programs
Many YouTubers participate in affiliate programs, the most popular one being Amazon Associates. Thanks to these 3D printing affiliate marketing programs, creators can earn a commission via special links.
If you make a purchase on the website (Amazon or others) using their custom link, the creator will receive a commission. If you want to support some of your favorites 3D printing creators while online shopping, just use their affiliate links usually found in the description fields below a video.
Another way to earn $$$ revenue or get free products through YouTube is to get sponsored by a brand or establish a partnership with them. In the case of 3D printing, 3D printers and 3D scanners brands can send you 3D printers or 3D scanners for reviews.
Starting a Patreon
Patreon is a global crowdfunding platform where content creators of all kinds can get sustainable income from recurring donations from fans. Many 3D printing YouTube channels have a Patreon where you can contribute with a monthly donation, starting as low as a few dollars.
Some of the most established YouTubers on our list can earn thousands of dollars each month thanks to their Patreon. Thomas Sanladerer, for instance, makes around $2k per month thanks to donations from his fans, thus providing more financial freedom to run his channel.
Joining a multi-channel network (MCN)
According to Wikipedia, “a multi-channel network (MCN) is an organization that works with video platforms such as YouTube, to offer assistance to a channel owner in areas such as “product, programming, funding, cross-promotion, partner management, digital rights management, monetization/sales, and/or audience development” in exchange for a percentage of the ad revenue from the channel”. MCN is now common in the world of YouTubers looking to monetize their channel, and several makers from our list have already joined an MCN.
If you’re looking to take your 3D printing YouTube channel to the next step, this could be the way to go.
No need to have tens of thousands of subscribers either, as MCN is not only focusing on reach but also on the engagement of the audience on high potential niches such as additive manufacturing.
Soooooo…. 5/10 of our top channels are #3Dprinting– Kill me? <3 U @joeltelling @THEJATMN @apyrodesign @pressreset @3DPProfessor @BINMedia

How to use our list of the 3D printing channels on YouTube
Subs count
Here is the number of subscribers as of September 13, 2018, 18 months after the last subs count we did in March 2017. This allowed us to calculate an 18-month growth rate for channels featured in this list.
Growth
This is the growth percentage of the channel, based on the evolution of the total number of subscribers over the past 18 months (from March 2017 to September 2018).
This growth rate gives an indication of which channels are growing fast. We highlighted the super fast-growing channels with a little fire emoji (growth rate above 500%).
Category
This time, we’ve decided to categorize 3D printing YouTubers to make the list easier to use:
- 3D printing: this is the main category, covering YouTube channels focusing solely on 3D printing and producing videos such as 3D printers unboxings, tests, tips, and general information about additive manufacturing.
- Maker: we regrouped here the channels of maker creators who regularly offer 3D printing-related content but whose channel is not fully dedicated to 3D printing. We thought it was interesting to expand a bit the scope of the list to see how established makers make the most of 3D printing for their projects.
- Tech reviewer: there are many tech reviewers with highly successful YouTube channels, and some of them have a knack for 3D printers! Why not include them here?
- Cosplay/props: this category covers creators and makers who use 3D printing to make cosplay, movie accessories, and props.
A very popular and active YouTube group with a nice overlap with the 3D printing community.
Country of origin
Pretty straightforward, because it’s cool to see how global the 3D printing movement has become (although most channels are still from the US).
Note:
For this list, we selected only 3D printing YouTube channels managed by independent creators. However, some 3D printing companies run great YouTube channels with instructive videos. For example, MatterHackers, a leading US reseller of 3D printers, produces lots of great content, from reviews to tutorials.
The different types of 3D printing YouTube videos
Tutorials
In tutorials, 3D printing Youtubers give step-by-step instructions on topics such as how to build a 3D printer in kit, how to improve your 3D printing techniques, and many more. You can also find 3D printing video tutorials on how to solve general 3D printer problems such as nozzle clogging.
Unboxings
Unboxing is a video where Youtubers unbox 3D printers, 3D scanners, or 3D filaments and share their first impressions with the viewers. 3D printers unboxing videos are quite popular and they usually cover every step, from opening the cardboard box to launching the first print. These videos are very popular on YouTube (not only for 3D printers!), as they allow viewers to share the thrill of unboxing a brand new machine and also provide unfiltered insights for potential buyers.
Reviews
For 3D printer reviews, manufacturers usually send a test unit to one or several Youtubers to get a video review and give exposure to their machine in the 3D printing community. Some creators also make reviews of 3D printers or filaments they purchased themselves, thus avoiding the potential conflict of interest.
Lately, a growing number of 3D printer and 3D filament brands have started to use YouTube reviews as a promotion channel, sending multiple 3D printer test units to influential channels and actively engaging with the community. Most YouTubers do not charge for a 3D printer review but they can sometimes keep the product for free.
Tips
In 3D printing tips videos, you will find ideas on how to solve a problem on your 3D printer or how to make some improvements to your 3D printer and your 3D prints.
How to become 3D printing Youtuber?
The beauty of YouTube is that anyone with basic video equipment can become a creator. To launch a 3D printing YouTube channel, you basically need a recording device, a 3D printer, and a good dose of motivation! Of course, if you intend to make tutorials or hands-on videos about 3D printing, having access to a 3D printer is a plus (some decent DIY 3D printers are available for less than $200).
Note that the most popular YouTubers not only use top-notch video and audio gear, they also have great video production and editing skills, which take a lot of practice to acquire.
Once you’ve started your YouTube channel, you want to build a following and promote it on social media so people can discover your work.

Flsun Q5 Review: Delta Printer For Beginners
I have a lot of printers, but the Flsun Q5 is my first delta machine. For some reason I never got my hands on a delta and I was really interested in testing one.
What are delta printers?
Most common FDM 3D printers right now are cartesian and Core XY printers.
Cartesian printers move the bed on the Y axis, and the hotend moves on the X and z axis. In this case, the heaviest movement part is the bed, and this can cause ringing on the surface of the prints if speeds are not tuned well.
This is the reason most of the cartesian printers are used at relatively low speeds.
Most Core XY printers move their bed only on the Z axis, and the hotend moves on the X and Y axis. Because the heaviest part of the printer moves only in small increments on the Z axis, you can now push the printer to higher speeds.
With a bowden setup, Core XY printers can print faster than a cartesian printer and usually with better quality.
For delta printers, the bed is completely stationary, and the hotend moves in all three XYZ axis. This movement is made possible by three moving arms which are connected to the hotend assembly. Each arm is controlled by a single stepper motor and moves independently to control the position of the nozzle.
With this type of movement included in a delta printer, the hotend is a bowden setup to keep the weight as low as possible. Movements can be much faster which translates to faster print speeds and you are usually limited only by the cooling capacity of your part cooling fan and the hotend.
Unfortunately, there’s also a downside with delta printers. Usually, the build volume is about half of its height because the moving arms I was telling you about need extra room in order to perform the movements on all three axes. Besides the volume loss on the Z axis, you also loose a bit of space on the X and Y due to the circular bed.
A delta printer is a good contender for Klipper and that’s the main reason I was interested in playing around with the Flsun Q5.
Flsun Q5 Packaging and Shipping
The printer was shipped from a local warehouse (UK) and delivery took around 5 days. Packaging for the Flsun Q5 is much smaller than I expected, but all the components are properly secured and protected during shipping.
With the printer you also get the following accessories:
- Leveling sensor
- Hotend assembly
- Effector arms
- Installation screws
- Filament cutting pliers
- Spatula
- USB cable
- MicroSD Card
- Spare 0.
4 mm nozzle - A set of hex wrenches
- Metallic spool holder
- PLA sample
Assembly of the Flsun Q5
The assembly process of the Flsun Q5 is straight forward and easy to do even for a beginner. First, you need to connect the three extrusion assemblies on the base plate then install the top of the printer.
Next, you install the effector arms to each axis and finally, install the hotend assembly. With the printer assembled, you just need to install the spool holder on top of the printer, and double check all the wire connections. If everything looks good, then you’re ready to start printing.

Titan clone extruder
It’s nice to see that the Flsun Q5 comes with a geared extruder in the form of a Titan clone.
The quality is acceptable and it’s much better than any kind of cheap extruder you can find on some Creality machines.
Considering that the Flsun Q5 is a delta, and you can push the printer at much higher speeds compared to a regular 3D printer, the Titan extruder will ensure the consistent extrusion needed.
V6 hotend
The Flsun Q5 comes with a V6 hotend clone with a few changes from the regular V6. It gets mounted on the printer using two screws that go inside the heatsink trough the bottom.
The heatblock is smaller than a regular V6 and the head break is PTFE lined so I don’t recommend going over 245C for a long period of time.
The hotend can be a limiting factor when printing because if you raise the print speed too much, the hotend cannot keep up. A volcano hotend would have been a better addition to this printer, but the current one works fine for up to 70mm/s. Heating is fast and the nozzle can reach 210C in about 2 minutes.
Unfortunately, there’s no silicone sock on heatblock but this is a really cheap upgrade which will keep your heatblock clean.
MKS Robin Nano 1.2 (32-bit board with TMC2208 silent drivers)
The board included with the Flsun Q5 is made by Makerbase. It’s the Robin Nano 1.2 board with 3x TMC2208 silent stepper drivers. The extruder uses an A4988 stepper driver which is a bit louder. It should be easy enough to replace the stepper driver with a similar TMC2208 to make the printer even quieter.
Considering the price of the printer, I can understand why they saved a few dollars with an older stepper driver but a TMC2208 would have been nice.
As you can see, there’s room for another stepper driver, so the printer can be upgraded to dual extrusion in the future, if you’re looking to try it. Of course, this will require some modification to the printer. Specifically, adding an extra stepper motor, extruder, and a split connector for the filament
The MKS Robin Nano V1.2 also has a port for connecting a MKS Wi-Fi module which can allow you to send prints remotely to the printer.
Small 2.
8inch touch screenThe touchscreen included with the Flsun Q5 is a MKS 2.8 TFT which is responsive and offers most of the controls you would expect.
It doesn’t have any special functions like the BTT TFT35, but it gets the job done. I like that the screen menu takes you through the Z calibration process so it will be easy for anyone to correctly do the calibration whenever it’s necessary.
Ultrabase style glass bed
The printing surface included with the Flsun Q5 is an Ultrabase style glass bed, similar to what you can find with an Anycubic or Creality printer. The round glass bed has good adhesion and prints can be removed easily after the bed cools down.
There was no need for me to use the metal spatula to remove the prints because they get released by themselves after the bed cools down.
The print surface is flat and after calibrating the Z offset and probing the bed, I never had to touch it or use babystepping for a perfect first layer.
You can reach up to 100C, thanks to the DC powered heat bed underneath the glass.
Heatbed insulation material is also present which helps the bed reach the required temperature faster, and lower the overall power draw during operation. The bed reaches 60C in 2 minutes, and 100C in about 6 minutes.
Auto bed leveling
For leveling the printer (or maybe it’s better to call this “calibrating the printer”) you get a removable sensor which clips next to the hotend.
With the help of this sensor, the Flsun Q5 probes the bed in 25 points and then generates a mesh to compensate for the inaccuracies that might be present in the heat bed. It works really well and makes the whole setup a breeze. I only used it once since I got the printer.
Small footprint
I like the fact that a delta printer takes a lot less space compared to a regular printer. The Flsun Q5 makes no exception and it takes only 50cm on the desk. It takes about the same space as a regular resin printer.
Fanless power supply
Because the heated bed is relatively small, it doesn’t draw a lot of power.
This allows the manufacturer to use a lower power power supply (240W) which doesn’t need a fan. The benefit of using a lower power supply with no fan is lower noise during operation.
Inside the enclosure there’s a 4020 fan which blows air over the stepper drivers and power supply, so cooling is fine.
Not the greatest spool holder
Unfortunately, the spool holder is not the best. Because it is connected with only two screws on the relatively thin metal sheet on top, it’s not that stable.
It works but I think an upgraded spool holder with bearings would work much better for the Flsun Q5. The spool holder arm is also a bit small and it will not allow the use of wider spools of filament.
Fortunately, there are a lot of 3D printable solutions available so this is an easy fix.
Good calibration from factory
I was pleasantly surprised to see that the printer is properly calibrated right from the factory. I didn’t need to perform any kind of extruder or flow calibration.
Everything was on point.
This made the whole experience with the printer painless and I am sure any beginner will appreciate this. You just take the printer out from the box, assemble it then start printing. Of course, you will need a decent profile, but otherwise, the Flsun Q5 is one of the easiest printers to setup
Mirrored prints
It’s also worth noting that the prints from the Flsun Q5 are mirrored, and I could not find a reason for this but I will update this review when I find a solution.
This can be probably fixed by editing the firmware but I think it’s worth mentioning the current state of the printer firmware.
Later Edit: The issue was fixed by flipping the X and Y motor wires and end stops. They were not installed correctly during assembly in the factory. After flipping the connectors, everything printed in the correct orientation.
Slicer profile for Flsun Q5
During my time with the printer, I tuned a Prusa Slicer profile for the Flsun Q5.
This profile is tuned for the stock printer and worked well for me. If you are looking to give it a go, then feel free to download from the links below:
Flsun Q5 Prusa Slicer Profile – PLA – 3DPrintBeginner
There was no need for me to calibrate the extruder of flow, but if you notice some extrsion issues, you can follow the Flow Rate Calibration article in order to do that.
Test prints on the Flsun Q5
3D Benchy
As I regularly do, I started a 3D Benchy because it’s the easiest way to determine what kind of settings I need to adjust on my slicer profile to improve the quality. Not the best benchy, but considering I used a default untuned profile, I think it’s decent.
- Material: Sunlu Gray PLA
- Layer Height: 0.2
- Nozzle Temperature: 210C
- Bed Temperature: 60C
- Print Speed: 60 mm/s
Unicorn
I thought I try the printer with a slightly bigger model and a tuned slicer profile before moving on.
So, I grabbed the Unicorn from Alsamen and started a print. It finished in less than 3 hours and as you can see, the results are excellent.
No sign of Z banding, extrusion is consistent, and I was amazed by the quality you get out of the box.
- Material: FilamentOne PLA Glint Purple
- Layer Height: 0.15mm
- Nozzle Temperature: 210C
- Bed Temperature: 60C
- Print Speed: 70 mm/s
Knurled Bolt
I printed the sliced G-code from the SD card with decent results. The nut can spin on the bolt but the slicer settings used are a bit too much (retraction too high, bed too hot).
So, I printed a second one with my PLA profile and the tolerances are better. The nut spins freely and it looks great. I’m happy with the results.
- Material: Gembird Christmas Green
- Layer Height: 0.15mm
- Nozzle Temperature: 210C
- Bed Temperature: 60C
- Print Speed: 70 mm/s
Cyclops
Now that I confirmed that all the slicer settings are right, I printed the Cyclops bust from Eastman.
I also increased the speed a bit, because it’s a bigger print and layers have more time to cool.
Results are again, impressive! Considering the speed this bust was printed, you can’t really ask for more. Print time was about 8 hours.
- Material: FilamentOne PLA Glint Blue
- Layer Height: 0.15mm
- Nozzle Temperature: 210C
- Bed Temperature: 60C
- Print Speed: 70 mm/s
Elven Assassin
Using the same settings, I printed the Elven Assassin from Eastman. The quality is just as good and I can’t see any problem with the printed model.
- Material: FilamentOne PLA Glint Gray
- Layer Height: 0.12mm
- Nozzle Temperature: 210C
- Bed Temperature: 60C
- Print Speed: 70 mm/s
Moai
In order to check the TPU performance of the printer, I printed the Moai from Thingiverse.
This time, I lowered the print speed to ~35mm/s for consistent results. It’s not really possible to print TPU faster on the Flsun Q5 because the filament compresses in the bowden tube and can’t be extruded consistently.
With a lower speed, the results are good.
- Material: Devil Design Pink TPU
- Layer Height: 0.2mm
- Nozzle Temperature: 215C
- Bed Temperature: 60C
- Print Speed: 35 mm/s
200% Calibration Cube
I also tested the PETG performance and the printer can do it but with a maximum speed of ~60mm/s. If you try to go faster, the hotend cannot keep up and melt filament efficiently.
You can also see some small artifacts on the side of the prints. I noticed this on all prints which have straight lines. I am not sure what causes this effect but it’s something to keep in mind when considering the Flsun Q5.
- Material: Devil Design Pink PETG
- Layer Height: 0.
2mm - Nozzle Temperature: 240C
- Bed Temperature: 60C
- Print Speed: 60 mm/s
Conclusions: Is the Flsun Q5 worth buying?
The Flsun Q5 is an excellent Delta printer for beginners. It offers a pleasant experience and excellent print quality out of the box, even at higher speeds. It’s held back by the stock hotend, so it will be hard to print faster than ~70mm/s but otherwise everything works well.
During my time with the printer I haven’t encountered any kind of issues during printing, and all the models I tested came out great (if we ignore the mirrored print issue). The printer is silent, but I would have liked to see a TMC2208 driver used for the extruder instead of the A4988.
For the current asking price of around 200$ I think the Flsun Q5 is an excellent budget 3D printer for beginners and I can’t find any reason not to recommend it. I would get the Flsun Q5 instead of an Ender 3 for example, because it’s faster and easier to use.
And watching a delta printer is much more satisfying compared to the regular cartesian machines.

About useful modifications for the Delta 3D Printer.
When building a 3D Printer, my choice fell on Delta. I was attracted by the fact that it does not look like any of the existing 3D printers.
It has an unusual design, unusual technical solutions and high printing speed.
Very often, those who want to build their own Delta consult and ask what parts are best to use for assembly!? And how to improve the print quality of an already assembled printer!?
In this article I will try to explain
which is better to use when creating a Delta using the U3D Delta II 3D Printer as an example.
1. An important role in the Delta printer is played by the quality of the movement of the carriages along the vertical racks.
When printing, the carriages move at different amplitudes and speeds. Sometimes the speed is very high, and the amplitude of movement is very small.
Commonly used options:
- Linear Cylindrical Guides with bearings. They are inexpensive and there are a wide range of manufacturers. Linear Cylindrical Guides are used in many 3D Printers and perform their role very successfully. And they can also be used in a Delta printer with a small print field.
nine0002 But the disadvantage of is to use them in a Delta printer with a print height of more than 150 mm. is that due to the high speed and small amplitude of movement of the carriage, the linear guides begin to oscillate and resonate. Printed products are obtained with irregularities and waves. We have to reduce the print speed and thereby reduce the fluctuations. .
- The second option is carriages with bearings and PTFE rings.
The bearing rings are made of durable polymer. The bearings, like rollers, roll along a T-profile in an aluminum guide. It is also a common and inexpensive solution. nine0003 You only need to buy bearings and polymer rings on them.
The advantage of using this option is that the T-profile is stronger than the linear cylindrical guides and there is no vibration when the carriages move. You can not slow down the print speed.
The disadvantage of is that the rings on the bearings wear out quickly despite the tough polymer.
As a result, a gap gradually appears between the roller and the T-profile. If you do not notice this defect in time, then you may not even understand why the products are getting worse and worse in quality. Products are obtained with deviations in size and wavy walls. nine0003
In the U3D Delta II 3D Printer, it was decided to use profile rail guides with carriages, which are used in the CNC machine.
This made it possible to improve the quality of printing, to increase the accuracy of the positioning of the printing nozzle above the table.
Profile rails and carriages have a high accuracy class, so that movements occur without jerking and sticking. And there is no vibration on the guides, they are tightly fixed to the T-shaped profile with bolts.
2. The following modification affecting the print quality:
The articulated joint is mainly used to fix the platform and move it in several planes.
These can be bought from a model shop
Or print bushings and insert a metal rod.
The disadvantage of is that they sometimes stick or there is play in the ball joints. At best, this can be the cause of poor print quality, size deviation, and wavy walls on the product. In the worst case, the connection may jam and the 3D printer will be damaged. nine0003
The U3D Delta II 3D Printer uses magnetic ball joints and carbon rails.
This joint design helped to reduce friction, play and jams. The movements are fast and precise. In addition, it is a very durable solution.
Magnetic connection allows you to quickly remove the hot end platform to clean it and reattach it just as quickly.
3. Modification for belt tension
It is very important to watch the belt that moves the carriages. All belts must be equally tight. Excessive belt tension will place undue stress on the stepper motors.
This will cause overheating, uneven operation, and damage to the stepper motor.
Insufficient tension will cause belt slippage and printing failure.
Nylon tie is sometimes used for tensioning.
Or another clothespin spring
These options do not give much accuracy, it is not possible to understand how tightly and evenly the belts are tensioned.
It is better to use a ratchet - a gear mechanism with intermittent movement. Ratchet
This ratchet made it easy to fix and adjust the belt tension in the U3D Delta II.
The belt is simply inserted into the hole and even tension is adjusted by the number of wheel clicks.
4. A modification that will be useful to many. nine0017
A large number of wires are routed to the hot end. (Cooling, lighting, sensor wires and hot end power)
Previously, these wires were constantly dangling and clinging to everything.
It was necessary to constantly monitor that they did not interfere with the printing process. This problem was solved by using a self-tensioning clip roller.
This roller hangs from the top of the printer and the cord attaches to the wires to eliminate excess slack.
5. Modification is Sitall glass U3D
Many people have probably heard about U3D glass-ceramic glass, others already print on it both in Russia and in other countries.
The benefits of U3D Sitall Glass and how it differs from other options for HeatBed coatings, I will soon tell in my new article.
Everything written in this article is based on my own experience and testing.
