Short answer: Sam Nadler says he and Jordan both use a Bambu Lab X1C printer and get files from MakerWorld. He customized a Built This Week keychain, generated it in about a minute, downloaded the file and sent it to print.

Sam Nadler [7:34]: Yeah. Alright. Cool, Jordan. Thanks for that demo. And just moving on, I'm gonna cover, it's technically not AI, but we did get quite or a few inbound requests, kind of what we're doing with three d printing. And I would say both you and I are three d printing enthusiasts. Last week, we covered, sorry, how we're using Nano Banana to change three d printed artifacts into ecommerce images, ready to sell on our ecommerce web page. And I thought I'd cover a little bit on how we just, build and do things with three d printing. So really quick, both you and I have a three d printer, and we both have the X1C. Really quick, if you're not familiar with three d printing, there is a few major brands, but one brand we like to use is is Bambu Lab. We both have a Bambu Lab printer. And then there's different marketplaces where you can get, different files to print. Our favorite is MakerWorld, and it's actually really, really simple. In kind of this example, I printed out, two built this week keychains. So BTW, I've got one for you as well.
Sam Nadler [9:01]: I'll mail it to you. And it was as simple as finding the keychain, then customizing it. This is super simple, and I can do, Jordan, generate. And, obviously, there's way more complex files. And then, once you generate the it takes a minute. Once you generate, you'll see how it comes up. And then you can download the file, and then boom, off to printing. So a little cute kind of deviation from what we're normally covering, but, a great way to highlight something that you know, if you're a builder, printing, you're having your own little factory in your house where you can print pretty much anything as long as it fits within the container. I mean, you can print shelving. You can print canisters. You can print I mean, who knows? Literally, the sky's the limit. But, we got a little bit of inbound, so I thought it'd be fun to cover how you can, print. If you're a builder, how you can use three d printing to build new stuff.
