Finally someone that understands that 3D printers are a tool. So many 3D printing channels treat it like its the endgame where as for the rest of us its the starting point

In the last storm we had, a part of the raindrain of the roof was fractured. I 3D scanned it, worked on it a bit and 3D printed the piece that was broken. I went to 5 stores before i went on the scanning and printing route. The first 3 said " it was too old and couldnt be bought anymore" while the other 2 said they could get it but it would cost about 250 dollars. .... yeah... So i went with 3D printing.. it cost me about 4 $. so yes printing fantasy stuff and cosplay stuff is grand and all but using it for everyday issue and problems that need to be solved, is way more fun.

I'm 56yo and just started. Mate thanks for the information, yes I have had some failures, but have started to sort them out. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 👍

I just found your channel and it’s fascinating to see the scale of your print farm! I’ve been messing around with 3-D printers for about the last nine years and last year bought a Bambu lab X1c which paid itself off about five times over in the first couple of months! It’s definitely a fantastic machine if you know what use it for. Congratulations on your business, it’s always inspiring to see people making a living doing what they enjoy.👍

I bought a Prusa back in 2014 when they where just taking off. Still works great. I do have to manually level the bed. I use Blender to create the parts I want to print. Blender does have a learning curve but well worth it in the end.

Great information! As someone who has been looking at the Bambu Lab printers for a while, this is very helpful. Also, I'm digging the new studio setup! It looks awesome!

As someone looking to move up to bigger and better from their Ender 3, I appreciated this video! I especially appreciated your understanding that I want to 3D print for my hobbies, not as a hobby.

I've been printing for a couple of years now, just bought a new printer and was up all night watching videos...this was the MOST impactful video I watched ALL evening! I've been hot over Bambu labs but this guys explanations are just top tier and really got me going. Great commentary!

I just bought my first printer about 3 weeks ago, an ender 3 v2 neo. I've already printed repair parts for a machine at work, joycon repair parts, etc. I've already swapped the firmware, converted it to direct drive and have started learning to use carbon fiber reinforced filament for wear resistance. I am definitely enjoying the journey. Although a Prusa was on my short list of models, in the end, the neo was the only one I could afford. If I can start to monetize this in my area, I will definitely be looking at the P1P - that speed is amazing.

Thank you from a newbie to 3D printing. Your video made sense to me and is allowing me to go forward on my journey to 3D Printing.

Damn you hit the nail on the head at the start. I hesitated on getting a 3D printer for a few years because I thought "what would I even do with it?" Now that I have a few, I'm printing everything from decorative pieces, to functional things like scrapers and drawers, and even things that are simultaneously decorative AND functional, like beautifully sculpted boxes that have visually appealing designs on them, or a desk organizer shaped like a castle with dragons scaling the towers. I have Fusion 360 and I've cut my teeth on taking 2D images and extruding them into 3D objects and successfully printed them, but soon I want to learn more and make a lot of small but useful things to put around the house.

Stumbled on this video while trying to decide what printer to buy. The set design, the content, and the delivery are all on point. Thank you! Yes...I liked and subscribed.

Great video. One of the best ways to determine how reliable a 3D printer is, put it in a makerspace. There you will get 10's of people who range from noobs, to experts, to people who think they're experts. If the printer can survive a couple weeks, it is remarkable. I agree, the Prusa is considered super reliable, but it was our most troublesome in the makerspace. The TAZ did quite well. A couple months ago we got rid of all the various machines and bought 3 P1Ps. They have been incredible. The only print failures we have seen were do to bad filament, incorrect bed section (wrong temperature) and poorly designed models. No nozzle clogs at all! Everyone is happy with the P1Ps, which is really something in a makerspace with 300 people.

This was a huge help for me, I have been kicking this around for several years. I have a CNC and I have a laser and am always looking at small upgrades people have done, even a wrench holder and then they offer you the file. I really wanted to be under 1k to start, as I am still paying for a CNC and a Laser. P1P was 599.00 Score Of course, I spent nearly 800 because I mean what’s the point of getting no filament

Great video, I've had the MK3 since they first came out and it just keeps on working. Hundreds of spools later and still no real issues!

Great video! I got some information from it. I am a NEW beginner. I looked at 3D printers a few years ago and was disenchanted with all the "tinkering". I don't mind a little tinkering, but if that is all you do is tinker and tweak the machine to get it to work properly, that is very frustrating, especially if you are a newbie to the craft. I have a CNC router and that's all I seem to do is tinker and tweak. When it is set-up properly, it is wonderful, but that is rare it seems. Anyway, I was hopeful that these Bambu Labs machines will eliminate most of that.

I started on an Ender 3 kit, bought it in 2017 and it has been phenomenal this whole time especially for the price. I paid 180 bucks back then and the prints out of the box were great. I saw some videos of people showing modifications and upgrades the Ender 3 would need in order to run smooth and consistent but luckily I was able to print most of them with that same printer just like that lol Bed levelling was never an issue for me somehow. I always do the thing where you use a piece of paper and make sure the pressure is the same in all corners, really not a big deal but I see how people can get it wrong. It's just one of those things you have to get right and you can't skip that part.

Thank You! As an older general contractor, I've been considering a 3d printer for years for both my business & my hobbies but I struggle with computers (heck- i can't even make a simple excel spreadsheet without help). Your information is extremely helpful and I'm going to save this vid for when I do "take the plunge"(soon).

What you said about how manually setting the print bed and adding 3rd party components is a brain curiosity killer is the truest thing I’ve heard all year. As an ender 3 owner I’ve lost so much interest in 3D printing, but now I want to buy myself something from prusa or bambulab. Beautiful video

Where are you at, recommendation-wise, 9 months later?

Ive been printing for a couple of years now but this video was still so good! Very well presented and explained, and good points.

I built my Mk3S+ - thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the insights into the workings of the machine were invaluable. I did have one problem (one of the PSU connectors was reversed from the factory), but Prusa's tech support sorted the issue after a couple of rounds of emails and troubleshooting. And it's chugging away as I type.

So back story, I sold my old 3D printer as it only had a 150*150*150 build plate and it was my first to learn how to design and 3D print. So, time for a new one as I had some prototypes to build and I saw this video and boom, pulled the trigger and bought a P1S with the added cabinet..Absolutely amazing, the slicer is so easy to use once you calibrate it and the speed and finish is amazing. Can’t wait to print the prototypes and have the engineering say “What, noooo wayyyy”. Thanks

I bought an Ender 3 v3 KE. Fast, automatic bed leveling, hot bed, input shaping capable, hotend to handle a wide variety of filaments, and all the hacky support community of the creality enders, so its moddable. Not as flashy as the bamboo, but half the price even of the cheaper bamboo (300 usd) I think its great if you don't know yet how much you want to print, but if you do, you want your options. Ofc these bamboo stuff are also really great, especially if you just want to print and have the money.

I bought a P1P after dealing with a low cost unit and I cannot recommend it enough. All the constant headaches are gone and I can just get things printed out. I am printing constantly & bonus it is faster and quality is so much better. Additionally there is a Opensource fork of the Bambu Labs slicer with all the features and added calibration tools that really gets these things dialed in.

Very well balanced video for starters. I've started two years ago with a Prusa Mini+ Kit. For the same reasons you've mentioned: Affordable, reliable, track record, and the kit get's you familiar with the printer for future maintenance.

Spot on video! I have a similiar background and experience and if I could WORDS better this is exactly how I would do talking! But seriously, I get questions all the time from people who want to get started printing and ask me my recomendations and instead of rambling for an hour and winding up down an engineering rabbit hole, I just point them to this video. Saves me from having to see the look of terror set in on someones face when they realize that they are now trapped in a conversation with a mega geek that they may not get out of. Thanks man!

As someone that is thinking about getting into 3DP, this was FANTASTIC. Hit all the points I've been wondering about, even "how am I going to model stuff??" I was pretty sold on getting a Bambu X1C on black friday (hoping for deal), before but this has opened my eyes to the P1P.

Absolutely bang on. Have the Ender 3 S1 Pro and truly enjoyed the few months of seeing something around the house that needed *something* and being able to just sit down in Fusion and create a solution. That said, I got tired of tinkering with it. Leveling the bed, tuning the settings, etc. That coupled with the iterative nature of creating something from scratch and the time it takes to print 1 of anything slowly killed my interest in doing it. One of the Bambu models are definitely on my radar for purchase soon.

I started with an ender 3 v2, had a good amount of fun before I got tired of failed prints on a slow base printer. Had no desire to learn upgrading, and bought an x-1 carbon w/AMS. The x-1 carbon has been so damn amazing. I can iterate designs as needed, and they print so damn beautifully fast. I love it.

I am getting ready to purchase my first FDM printer... been doing Resin for a few years and made the fun discovery of being allergic to resin recently, so no longer an option. I have been looking at the Bambu P1P and P1S as well as the X1C... thank you for making this video

Concise, helpful information, delivered with an easy pace and flow, a sane educated tone, wrapped in great production values. Nice work, and just what I needed to know. Bravo!

One other great aspect of Bambu is their replacement parts are surprisingly affordable! I will say though I have been eyeing Sovol lately as the ultimate budget printers.

I agree on all points and own a Bambu Lab X1-Carbon. I have 5 other printers as I got into 3D printing years ago. I will add that having cheap printers and learning how they work and modifying them to be better, I learned a great deal. That being said, I understand some people don't want to learn and just want to print.

I stumbled onto this; and you nailed it!! I just purchased my first 3D printer; you were talking direct to! Thank you for the insight! Looking forward to learning from you!

This video is great! I've been considering getting a printer and starting my own workshop but didnt know where to start. Thanks so much! I look forward to making my first purchase and following more of your content!

People who buy products and review them always earn my trust. I dont like sponsored products. Thank you Sir for your valuable information.

The new right answer is the P1S. It's enclosed and works with the AMS multi-spool system for $699. Basically the X1 Carbon without the Lidar and fancy touch screen for $450 less. Just ordered one.

Thanks for making the video. Its craz you are getting 1 out of 15 people giving it a thumbs down. Its not sponsored, you own a farm of them, and you didnt beat around the bush. Im researching my first printer and deciding between the Bambu and the Elegoo since it's half the price and people comment its reliable. Im just afraid this is another tool that collects dust so I hate to spend $700 and only use it a few times.

Brilliant video! I really liked how you approached the subject and I loved how your "experiential wit" made this really fun to watch. I think you really hit on a key point for many which is: "How do I make things that are actually useful with this?" and not just waste filament printing plastic trinkets with little purpose beyond adorning a knick-knack shelf. Thank You for sharing this valuable knowledge you gained through real world experience!

This is great advice for someone who isn’t looking to tinker with a printer constantly. I have a Prusa, an Ender 3 v2, and an Anycubic Vyper, and of the three, the Prusa has been my least finicky machine. The Ender also worked great stock, but was a bit too slow for my tastes, so I’ve modded it extensively. The Vyper has been nothing but constant headaches.

Definitely interested in this. Just for myself, I want to be able to print fixtures for hanging tools on my wall, or make that little part to fix a garden cart... etc. I see so many uses. I so completely suck at 3d modeling though! I might have to see about that education you recommend. I'm definitely going to focus on either the Bambu Lab or the Prusa, so you've at least narrowed down my search. I can't thank you enough for that!!!

I have children that bought a 3d printer personally I didn't see the value in buying something so expensive it seemed like just another complicated toy they wouldn't really use. But now I am researching this because I am making my own sock knitting machine that to buy new would be $1200 but I can make for $60. I love that you mentioned the kit printer because one of the main problems my kids run into is how to problem solve when something goes wrong. I showed them your video and they were really intrigued as am I. Thanks for that.

I messed around with a DIY Delta printer about 6 years ago. Got it all together just to get stuck at the setup/calibration stage and gave up on it. Sold it for half of what I bought it for and haven't messed with anything else since. However, now I am doing research to take the plunge into getting a unit for shoots-and-hoots. All this is to say that im gravitating towards the Bambulabs X1. It might be middle of the year before I can actually commit, but it pays to watch these videos now.

Started with a P1P earlier this year. Worked flawlessly and it was fast. I was so impressed I added an X1C w/AMS. I use this as a tool, not a hobby so it needs to run and I don't have time to tweak like my previous 3D printer.

Great video. Prototyping and designing usable parts is almost all of what I use my 3D printer for.

Great video, I was just watching some random video's about 3D printing and then I watch this one and you recomend the printer I have right next to me. Thx for the great video and keep making these types of videos to help starters learn about the world of 3D printing.

Hi, nice video. I have had several printers and now on a Zortrax M200 that I used professionally. I would definitely get an enclosed model with a filter if your going to run your printer @ home, ABS stinks. I wouldn't get side tracked by 'multi-colour' capability unless you really really think you need it. You rightly highlight first layer success as the #1 beginner problem -nightmare back in the day... I successfully used "TinkerCad" as the models I needed were not too complex and it has the advantage of being so simple you don't forget how to use it if not designing anything for a while...

There's an upgrade kit for the P1p to make it the P1S. Includes panels to enclose it, fans with carbon filter and camera for monitoring

As a 3d printer nerd from the old days when we built our own and, having had many printers over the years I found this a Very informative video, and an recomendation based on experience and common sense. Thanks👍

Wanted to thank you for this video. I used your suggestion and bought the P1S and have been enjoying it since day 1. I knew almost nothing about 3d printing and now well I still know almost nothing but I have been able to print models downloaded from printables and the like. I have also started learning Onshape and have designed and printed usable items. The most satisfying having been an overly complicated screw fastener for kitchen aid dishwasher. Again thanks for the info.

I couldn’t agree more on prusa. I had a cheap printer and spent ages printing things to make it work correctly so I could print what I wanted, then bit the bullet and bought a mk3s+, and since I’ve owned the prusa I’ve printed a couple of cool baskets for it, but needed nothing outside of what it came with to make it work. Now I just print the things I actually want to print, and they come out geometrically correct (another problem with my old printer)

Great advice. Ive owned 9 printers total now, including 4 prusa, and i have touched nothing but my bambu P1p since getting it. Better, faster, cheaper. Prusa while requires less intervention, maintenance etc... than an Ender, still needed far more adjustment than basically 0 on the bambu.

Just stumbled across this video and thank goodness I did. I have an option of a P1S for £540 which is rough 3x my original budget but by the sounds of it, it'll suit my needs to learn and not be broken all the time. Thank you for your time

I started printing a month ago with a Neptune 3 pro and so far no complaints from the machine, it was a good price I thought to get my feet wet the beginning was a nightmare and I wanted to toss it out the window. But with patience and a lot of videos I print something daily now. I’m currently printing d&d sword dice holder and it’s coming out great. Definitely going to look at one of those for the next upgrade

As a newbie, i watched your video and decided to go with Bambu. One month in and it hasnt stopped printing 24/7. Very happy with my purchase.

Thanks for the video! I just was handed down a 3D Printer. Put it together this past weekend and am TOTALLY lost as to how to actually print something lol. It just is so overwhelming... doesn't help that the printer I got is about 8 years old and has very little presence online (and I think the company no longer exists lol). Anyway, I do appreciate videos like this that make it a bit simpler - the entire thing. Thanks again!

This has to be one of the best videos on getting started with 3d printing...simple, to the point and with actual logical answers

I went with the P1S/AMS combo after a bunch of research. And it was so beyond worth it in my opinion. 100% agree with your suggestion.

I've run both Ender 3D & Anycubic Chiron without issues. Right out of the box, great print quality. I think most issues are with the software and users not being familiar with the settings for their particular job. Learning how to configure settings for a particular filament type and the part takes time no matter what 3D printer is used.

That was an awesome run down and so gratifying to hear someone in the industry telling me about things from a functional application point of view! I am yet to buy my first printer but loved the confidence building. As a retired research scientist, I have done the comparative research and the Bumbu P1P was my pick all-be-it for the most bang for my buck, economic reasons. Thank you for the video and now subscribed!😃

Thank you so much for this video! It helps a lot for a curious beginner. I'm definitely more excited about jumping into this new hobby.

I found this video, THE BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT I GOT FOR 2023!!! 😃 I GOT ANKER M5 recently and I am learning, your video helps a lot, PLEASE KEEP MORE COMING!!! CHEERS! 🎉🏆🏅

7:49 damn, I think this is the best transition I've ever seen for an ad.

I have had an ender 3 for years and every time I use it, I have to mess with it (it usually collects dust) and now that I'm back in the firearms space and need to test designs out, I need something fast and easy with a lot of material capabilities, and you just made the decision easy for me. Thank you so much!

I really appreciate the info in this video. I already have my first, but the info was still really good and I appreciate the perspective of someone with a lot more experience.

Awesome video man! Much appreciated, I’m a fabricator by trade and see huge potential in the ability to construct jigs with printing! Can’t wait to get my hands on one! Thanks for sending me in the right direction

Great "bedside manner"; simple, information solidly presented. No fluff, and easy to understand. Good job!

I also agree with your printer recommendations 100%. I’ve been telling my customers the exact same thing. Love what Bambu has done to the market.

watched this video when it came out with mild interest, i sure wish i would have paid attention. you described my evolution to a tee. started with an ender 3, endless troubleshooting, spaghetti and you tube videos later i am ordering the p1p. i agree 100% with the "kit" purchase advice as well. sooner or later you have to fix something and you will know where to start.

Loved the video and looking forward to more of your expertise. I followed your recommendations...well, most of them....I brought a Bambu Labs PSI Combo with the AMS and had it all up and running within the 15 minutes from unpacking the box to printing my first print with 2 minutes to spare just like Bambu Labs advertised. I started printing everything from poop containers, fridgets, signs, filament spools, and tons of other stuff along with a rack to hold up to 66 boxes/rolls of Bambu and Sunlu filament in their boxes. I've never owned or operated a 3 D Printer before. I've learned so much from trial and error with things like heater head temp changes to unclogging the head, changing build plate temps to help different filaments stick better or not. I printed off LED Risers in order to install more lighting in the print chamber. It's great and I love it. Thanks for all your help with your videos..... FYI, I've had the printer since the last week in Nov 2023 and as of today Feb 2024 I've used a little over 18 rolls of filament, printed hundreds of pieces and have 752 hours of print time on the P1S. I am proud to say that with that 752 hours of print time I've only had 3 issues with it and was able to solve those issues within a few hours. The P1S has been running almost continuously since I got it. I am definitely addicted to it. Now that I've practiced for the past 5 weeks almost non-stopped I'm thinking it's time to find a way to make a little money with this beautiful machine. Any ideas would be helpful..... Thanks again for all that you do......

Clear information, no BS and most importantly... unaffiliated. Just ordered the P1P based on your video. Thanks!

Nailed it. I just upgraded my ender 3 to the bambu and I can honestly say I've printed more with the bambu in 4 weeks than I did for years on the ender. It works. It works well. The prints are amazing, it's easy to change filiment, it's easy to print all the types of filaments and the software is great too (bye octoprint). It's pricy but when you count all the upgrades needed to make an ender 3 even close plus the time I spent on debugging and fixing the stupid machine over the years it's a small price to pay.

Thanks for taking the time to make this video and review. I was researching reviews and or walk throughs on the Bambu P1S and came across THIS video. Well, after seeing it (and subscribing to your channel) I pulled the trigger and bought the P1S Combo this morning. You cost me some money today Bro.. 😎

One of the best reviews on 3d-printers I have seen in the last 10 years. I started printing with a 100% build kit (anet8) and have been printing with the Mk3 since it was produced

May go with the Bambu as both of my Toyotas were crap ;). One factor for me is the price, and lead times. I love my MK3, as it is reliable, but kind of wanting to support a company that has put forth some effort to make things better for the 3D printing community forcing other companies to do better.

Wow I’m looking to get into 3D printing and was looking at the Bamboo1C but after seen your video I’m getting the cheaper Bamboo to start. Thanks once again. I’m glad I found this video.

Awesome information. I just ordered the p1p because of your vid. Thanks.

Great info and delivery. It’s what I was looking for friend. I love tools that allow me to create, modify and repair… this has been on my want list. Thankyou.

It was worth flying your friend out to help with lighting and upgrading the space. These videos look SOOOO good in your new space! Well this one you're a little too saturated (alot of it is also probably your red lighting in the room), but overall every one shot in the redone office looks great. Though I still hope to see some shop greatness shot in the garage

So true, I got into printing about 6 months ago, started with the ender 3 neo. I had no clue how much time was spent tinkering on the machine rather then the machine printing. If I were to start over I would spend the money up front and go with a k1 which is what I am going to move to eventually.

My experience with my ender 3 has been awesome. I had very minor things to work out that could happen with any printer. This machine has been solid and reliable and the quality is impressive for the price point.

That was shockingly helpful, I was prepared for tons of videos that I don't need anymore. Thanks man 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great video. You hit the main point, the Bambu is a tool that just works and is so easy to use. There are so few steps to printing something compared to other printers. I've spent a lot of time and money getting my ender 3 pro as polished and reliable as possible with upgraded bed, direct drive, hardened all metal hotend, runout sensor, bed levelling, 32bit board and compiling my own custom firmware, slowly perfecting various slicer profiles for different materials- it's been quite a process and on the plus side I've actually learnt quite a lot from it. It now works well for a ender 3 but it's been a lot of blood, sweat and tears to get it to this point and it still can be a faff to use it. The Bambu just worked straight out of the box, no upgrades needed, no tweaking, no tinkering, no experimenting, no learning it's foibles. It just works.

I have had the Ender 3 Neo for about a month now and I think it was a good starter printer because I did have to learn more about how it works in order to get it to print dimensionally accurate parts. I am an engineer, however, so I geek out on that stuff. I like to know what's going onside. For the price, I think it was a great investment for a starter but am already wanting to dive in and spend a little more. I appreciated this video. I think I will go with the kit for my next printer.

picked up a Bambu labs X1 last week, OMG, its just so easy to use. Love the multi filament options. like you said, it all just works.

When I tell you “I appreciate you!!” It’s an understatement. Thank you so much man. I was almost paralyzed from fear of buying a piece of crap, and almost gave up purchasing one. You are a gentleman and a scholar 🧐

Just got the p1s, super excited. Started on an ender 3v2 and man it was an absolute pain. Ended up bricking it due to a firmware update and had to return it. Starting to get back into 3d printing and I wanted to make sure I actually got one that worked.

I'm not going to lie, that was the best segue into a sponsor ad I have ever seen! Oh, and your studio set up looks amazing! The 3D Printing info was great too!

Thanks to this video I bought my first 3D printer last month, a 2nd hand Prusa Mini+ for a really decent price. It's a real work-pony, and I'm really pleased with the decision to get it rather than an Ender 3. I think one day, if I've got the money, I'll get a Mk 4 or whatever Prusa's latest printer is in a few years, but for now, this Mini does everything I need it to, and it's so easy to service.

Thanks so much for this video man. This was so helpful to me and I'm glad to have found it prior to making any purchases. Subbed !

You got me in the first 2min. The reliability and something just working is something sooo undervalued, not only in 3d printing but I would say in DIY in general. As someone that around 6 years ago started my 3d journey I completely related with what you said. Until I bought my prusa MK3S most of my time I was doing exactly that , buying third party parts to upgrade the printers and constant fixes or calibrations. My prusa in 4 years needed to be fixed once, the thermal sensor, which was a 30 min job. They have great documentation that makes it easy to fix and build the printer. Currently I'm considering to expand and I'm quite divided between bambo and prusa, but due to their track record, quality, open source and constant software upgrades/deploy I'm inclined to go prusa 4, but the tesla looks amazing 😂

Great video. You basically described my entire issue with my Ender 3. I wanted to get into 3D printing to support my hobby of making 3D models and printing them, but it was clear the Ender was gonna have to become a second hobby in and of itself before anything meaningful could be done. The P1P is what I wish I had gotten back in 2020. Maybe I'll grab it...

Thank you.... ahhhh, Shop Nation Man. You are an excellent presenter and I will subscribe and check some more of your stuff. The information was exactly what I was looking for as I am new to (actually am starting to look for a printer now) 3D printing. What a timely video find. Thanks very much and please make more. I loved every part of the video, even the commercial.

THNX a bunch for your content bud! It was about time someone did a down to earth & honest vid (even if I discovered it 10months later).

The ender 3 pro has been doing wonders for me. I was told to look at it as a hobby so I wouldn't get frustrated with the failures. That thought process has been amazing. I have fixed, changed, and currently fixing things. I understand the functions so much better. But now I want to run an etsy shop, so I need reliability. This video has been super helpful

Travis going hard on nerds and dorks. Careful, someone is going to hack your farm and make them start printing middle fingers. Why you make me spend money Travis? I didn't even need a 3D printer but now I have a farm... or at least a garden

Yep I am a software engineer who loves this stuff my old roommate had a 3D printer and now its time for me to get one I just had no clue where to start. Thanks!

Found your channel from your mini house build, now I'm ordering a 3d printer to hopefully get myself out of rut I've been in. Thanks for the inspiration from your channel you gained a new sub.
