  • Onshape

    cited in 5 videosspeaks highly of it

    “…the bike I'm going to use has a simple tubular frame which makes it easy to design a 3D model in on shape which is a cloud-based CAD program that allows me to design a single piece motor mount for this ebike if you want to design your own projects like this then I highly recommend checking out on shape”
  • SOLIDWORKS Design Standard

    first cited January 2026speaks highly of it

    “And in order to turn an idea into an actual real part, I use the sponsor of this video, Solid Works. With Solid Works Design, I'll sketch out my designs, build them into a full 3D model, and then use assemblies to check everything will actually fit together once it's made.”

  • HP ZBook Fury

    first cited April 2026speaks highly of it

    “But fortunately, I can use the HP ZBook Fury to see where this design needs some changes. This thing is basically a desktop workstation in laptop form as it's got the Intel Core Ultra 9 processor and Nvidia RTX Pro graphics card that I need for running my design simulations.”

  • Formlabs Form 4

    $5,749.00cited in 8 videosfirst cited September 2024speaks highly of it

    “I can then export the design and start 3D printing which I decided to do on the formlabs form 4 and form 4 L as the ability to make large strong Parts whilst also being very precise is perfect for this project”
  • Prusa XL

    $4,799.00cited in 3 videospositive about it

    “I started printing the switch on my prer XL with its tool changing capabilities which allows me to print flexible hinges as I want this switch to have a spring-loaded arm that can be cocked back to load the launcher”
  • Prusa i3 MK3 3D Printer

    cited in 2 videospositive about it

    “I also chose to 3D print the new piston from pla on my prusa Mark III as it's faster and cheaper than printing the Piston out of resin”
  • Formlabs Form 3

    cited in 2 videosfirst cited May 2024positive about it

    “I then 3D printed a test turbine on my form Labs form 3 resin printer as it's capable of high Precision Parts like these small turbine blades as well as a small diameter nozzle to direct the air through the turbine”
