This is a must-see chat with two true innovators in 3D printing! (Sorry for the little snafu with the camera viewfinder indicators showing up on-screen!)

Jason Murphy runs Next CHAPTER (not Next Generation, as I said in the video) Manufacturing and Brandon Teets runs Accel Digital Solutions, both in Grand Rapids, Michigan. (Both companies recently appeared in episodes of our playlist "Welcome to the Machine - links are below.) Jason does metal 3D printing and Brandon does plastic, and both have hugely valuable insights to share about this growing new production technology. Here are some of the highlights.

Chapters:
00:00 - introduction
01:50 - the current state of 3D printing
04:50 - the importance of materials
08:00 - 3D printing and production efficiencies
11:00 - "we start closer to the finish line"
13:30 - conformal cooling reducing downstream molding cycle times
15:00 - the efficiencies in reusing printing powders
18:30 - better parts from better materials
22:00 - the need for all manufacturers to consider 3D printing solutions
24:45 - "resetting the norm"

And there's a whole bunch more. Tune in and check out the whole thing, post your questions and observations in the comments section, and be sure to like, share, and subscribe!

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
