49: The 3D Printing Problem

.

Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Whatever happened to that vampire we were helping a few
years ago? Remember, he transformed into a
bat and then he couldn't transform back.
He got stuck. He.
Got stuck as the bat. Yeah, that was early 2020.
Late 2019, I think that. Was happening, yeah, yeah.
And he came to us and we had to try and brew a potion to
transform him back into a vampire.
We made a heap of those potions.I think we made at least 19 I

(00:20):
think. So what do we call them?
It was it was a really long name.
I think it was the the concoction of vampiric
interspecies detransformation. Yeah, I think the 19th of the.
I'm sure there's a shortening. Yeah, I'm sure.
I'm sure you can. I'm not too sure.
Yeah. But he, he got sick of, he got
sick of us. Yeah, You know, we made nineteen
of them, he said. You know what, boys?
I don't think. They can help us.

(00:41):
And then, yeah. And then he went to China.
Yeah, he said. What do you say?
Some Eastern medicine might. Help.
Yeah, he said. There's some scientists a big
factor in in in what was the city called.
What was it, Wuhan? Wuhan.
Yeah, that sounds right. Yeah.
I think so. And I don't know what happened
to him. He was a big, big, big warehouse
full of exotic species of creatures and.

(01:03):
He wouldn't have got eaten, would he?
I don't know. I don't think so.
No. No, I don't think so.
He would that. He hasn't sent me a postcard for
a while. No, it's been a minute for sure.
I don't know what happened though 'cause Animal Crossing
ended up coming out really soon after that.
I just ended up playing that forthe.
Next couple years we're inside for a long time after that,
'cause we're just love an AnimalCrossing society.

(01:23):
Yeah, yeah. I had a five star island, so of
course I don't know what happened to him.
And welcome back to the. Wizard tale.
The wizard tale, Yeah. So I moved towers.

(01:45):
Oh wow, I moved towers. Yeah, a few a few episodes ago.
Yeah, you all. Moved towers.
I moved towers, so I moved from.The the last one.
The very first one that we both lived in.
Yeah. Great tower.
Yeah. It was good to talk about, about
that tower. And then you moved towers to
this tower, which also fantastic, fantastic tower.
And then I moved towers from that previous first tower to my

(02:06):
brother's tower, OK. And lived with my brother and
his fiance in that tower. Yeah.
And now I've moved from that tower to this tower.
Bloody. And let me tell you.
Have you tried moving into a lighthouse or something like
that? Maybe by a nice little like
interim. No, no they don't.
Always exclusively. Towers, there's only so many you
can move into. One used to be a cement factory.

(02:26):
It was a big cement tube and then we converted that into.
A into a into a tower, almost a church, and we turned that into
a tower. Just the Spire of the.
Church. I lived in the pyramids for a
while, the big one in Dubai was pretty good.
That was a good. Yeah, that was good.
But yeah, this tower that I'm currently in, Unreal.
So happy with that. The best part about this tower,

(02:47):
and it's such a little thing, but it's like so good.
So like, you know, like you go into your bedroom and you got
the main light switches normallynext to the door.
Yeah, makes sense, yeah. So I turn that light switch off
and then I get into bed and I'm like oh shit I didn't turn the
main light switch off. Next to my bed is another light
switch that is the main light switch again and it has a dimmer
on it so. The fact it's got a dimmer as

(03:09):
well. So good dude.
It's like the best thing ever because like I always forget to
turn my light off and just get in the bed and I'm like fuck.
I've never understood having a dimmer switch, especially in
your bedroom. Having a dimmer switch at the
door. Yeah, I'm not going to sit in
bed and then go, oh, actually, you know, like before you get
into bed, you're like, oh, maybeI want it on this.
This I'm gonna turn it off eventually.

(03:30):
Like why wouldn't I? Why?
Why is? It dim right door and then you.
Jump out of the fuck. Nice relaxing atmosphere.
Yeah, just a 1%. I sleep at 1% light.
Like that's mental. That is, damn that is.
Yeah, it's some serious like. Foresight to be like.
I think it should be mandatory. I think every single house
should have. This.
Yeah, that's really good. But it does definitely limits

(03:52):
your ability to move your bed. Around.
Yeah, no, you need. It's gotta be.
Next to that, yeah, that's a good point.
And I heard is it on the side that you sleep on?
I yeah, well I don't share the bed so I kinda just free roam
between. Sides it's funny you.
Which is nice. I had a single bed up until I
was like 18, yeah. And when I got a bigger bed, I

(04:14):
still sleep. On one side.
Side I've never slept in the middle of a.
Big oh dude, I'm. I don't get it man.
I like having the the corner. I'm like that's.
The end of the bed. It's me.
They're. Safe.
I'm safe right here. I can see the end of the bed.
There's a whole other side to experience bro right?
That's crazy. I didn't know that.
I I wanna feel myself sleeping 'cause I thrash around, I think,

(04:34):
'cause every time I wake up my sheets are off my bed.
I don't know how, yeah. It's mental.
I have to like put my sheets on every morning because I I don't
know what I do. I just RIP them off while I'm
sleeping. I've no idea, it's so weird.
But. I really enjoyed moving.
That's another thing I wanted. To bring well, before I was just
gonna say I'm the opposite. I'm a I'm like, Oh yeah, I'm

(04:56):
like that vampire we were tryingto transform.
Dude, I like, get into my coffin, sleep on my back and
it's crossed and I wake up in the morning.
Exactly. Like that?
I like open my eyes, like I'll go to sleep and I go and then
open my eyes in the morning. I'm like ready for my day.
We we had to share a room one time because we like went around
to a friend's house and we've got that separate beds and I'm

(05:18):
sleeping and Jackson hasn't moved in like 15 minutes and I'm
so uncomfortable on my side. I'm like, I have to move and
then I have this like anxiety oflike, well, he's not moving.
I can't move like this weird like like I don't want to wake
him because he's a slate. It was sorry.
It's like a weird. I've never had this like fear of
like, is it going to be on my because you?
Love me bro. This guy, this guy moved a lot.

(05:38):
What's the hell to sleep? What?
That's so creepy. I like lying there.
I'm like, I can't let him think I move when I'm sleeping.
This is the weird just like. Honestly, rightfully so.
Yeah, you would have. Thought yeah, I'd be weird.
I'm like, what's this guy's fucking problem?
Man, Oh my God, it's so weird having this.
Like just this weird anxious. I've never felt that before.
I'm like, like, it's weird to move all of a sudden.

(06:00):
I can't do that. Speaking of moving, though,
yeah, I love it. You're in general weird.
I really enjoy moving, like moving houses.
Yeah, I I think it's so much fun.
It's so. Funny because I cannot think of
anything worse. I love packing shit up and and
disassembling it. Hate it dude.
I'm like when I got into this place the only thing I could

(06:23):
think of I was it. It was the worst thing because I
was like, I just want everythingfucking set up so I can get on
with my. You were like that when we first
moved in. And I was kind of like, I
enjoyed it. Like when I when I felt I lived
in a place prior to ours and we all moved in, there was nights
where we didn't have anything. We just like sitting on the
ground watching the TV and theselike memories that were just so
fun. Yeah.
I feel like it for some reason. It's like we had like we have

(06:45):
nothing in our Landry at the moment.
Yeah. And we just sat on my like
blanket or like the what do you call like rug?
Yeah. And just like KFC and I remember
this thinking like this is just fun.
Like, I don't know, it's like a little picnic.
I don't know, it's like nice, but I, I like moving because I
love stacking. I'm just, I'm like, because I do
it at call, I do it at work, I do it at work and I try and get

(07:07):
everything like stacked so nicely and I'll move it.
I'll move my cousin's shit. And I'm like, I'm having the
best time ever. He's bringing, he's bringing.
Work. I'm stacking stuff.
He's bringing. I've got like.
I've got my cage, I'm stacking my cage just.
Feels so nice to bring. My cage from work with all your
stuff laughing it, move it over.All the yoghurt just like ready
to go. All you've got is bookshelves in

(07:27):
your room and you're just stacking shit on bookshelves.
I just find it so fun to like it's like OCD or something.
It's just so nice to fit everything in like because we
had a lot, well, my cousin had alot of stuff.
I literally had my bed and desk and we're putting all these like
these couch in and stuff. And I'm like looking at it like
analysing where shit can go. And he's like, what do you think
about this? Like just just shut up.
I got it. Just just let me, let me cook

(07:49):
right now because I was just in like I was just in my element.
Do you love? Tetris man.
I've never. I haven't really played much
Tetris. See, maybe it's a good thing you
you haven't played much because you might get, yeah, addicted to
it and. I've watched the world finals of
Tetris and it does look fun. Oh, that's Tetris for Jonas.
For Jonas, it's so good, yeah. See, no, I'm the complete

(08:10):
opposite. I I couldn't think of anything
worse. Yeah, I think I will die in this
place. Yeah.
Like I genuinely. I'll move all your shit out and
be loving it. Oh, he's dead.
I was like me moving this stuff.I won't take it.
I'll just put it into a van like.
I won't even, I won't unpack it well.
You know, if podcasting doesn't work out, you could always be a
removalist. Yeah, honestly, I can see myself
because I just have fun. Just stack and stuff.

(08:32):
I don't know why. Yeah, yeah.
It just tickles something in my brain where I'm just like, this
is the best. Harry just kept bringing stuff
out to me because he just kept bringing stuff out.
And I was just like, Yep, Yep. Oh, and then we put that there
and I was just like working it out.
And then I like was thinking ahead, like I need to fit my
couch and or my desk in bed in there.
I need to make sure there's enough space.
I'm just doing all this shit. See, I just paid someone to do
that. Yeah.
And I was like, I'll fucking getit in, get in there.

(08:54):
And then they've damaged everything.
I was like, oh, I'm done myself,damn it.
Why did I do that? And then I'm over here.
You wouldn't have to pay me. I just love it.
I'm just like, I love the game. I'm.
True the love of the game. But yeah, I don't know.
I know a lot of people don't like moving but for some reason
I just enjoy it. Although you don't have a.
Like a lot of stuff, yeah. Which is So it would be better

(09:18):
not having as much stuff becausethere's nothing like packing up
this office. Yeah, just the worst, the worst
experience of my life. And then I also packed so it's
easy to unpack too. I have like a.
Yeah man, see my mums really good at that.
She she came over and helped me.I feel like me and your mum are
kindred. Spirits, I think so.
She we've moved a lot growing up, like we've moved houses like

(09:40):
fuck like 5 or 6 times yeah. So she's like a pro.
At it, Yeah, Nice. So.
Anytime where we move stuff or like, I just ask her for advice.
OK, what are you gonna do? Are you gonna get the bubble
wrap? And then you're gonna like,
stack them like this? I'm like wow, sweet, sweet.
Sweet, 'cause when we were moving from Brisbane down to
Melbourne, yeah, your mum went out and she looked at the car
and she's like, I can do this better.
And she literally like. Really annoyed at me for the

(10:01):
way. I packed it all again.
I was. Like Mum, it'll be fine.
Yeah, and it did not. I'm literally packing the car
like night, midnight, like midnight before we're supposed
to move. Yeah, that was.
Dumb. That was dumb.
I got a live hack that I saw on TikTok.
Yeah, yeah. Are you focusing or are you
going to keep spinning the stuffaround like Darth Maul?
You're. Gonna have to watch the video to

(10:26):
see that. Yeah, you're gonna.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's supposed to be on YouTube
because Spotify is too hard to upload the video We've talked.
We've talked about this about wewere open about all this.
My live hack is a shower live hack, and it's the best, the
best possible way to dry yourself.
Really. Yeah.
And I feel like maybe I'm late to the games.
This might be obvious. Yeah.
So, right. You've had your shower.

(10:46):
OK. You've turned the shower taps
off. All right.
Yeah. Before you get out of the
shower. Yes.
Squeegee yourself off with your hands.
Go put your hand all over your body and push all the water off.
Yeah. Squeeze it off.
Yeah. Then go dry.
You dry 2 seconds. Yeah, OK.
Is that not? Have you already done that?
See, I've got a different. I've got to do that.
I think everyone's got a different tactic, and I've done

(11:07):
this since I was. Maybe I got something, I don't
know. Now that I think about a little
bit, I found out the optimal wayto dry myself.
I've done it every single day since I was a fucking little
infant child. OK, this is it.
You grab the towel. Such a dumb podcast, I'm really
excited. To hear you're in the shower,

(11:27):
you don't want to get water on the mat, so you have the towel.
You grab the towel before you get out of the actual shower.
You bring the towel into the shower first thing you do.
OK, you get your hair. Because my hair is usually the
wettest. I grab it, bring the towel
around to the back, shimmy the back, go down to the legs, dry
both the legs off, then come round the front chest.

(11:50):
All in the shower. All in the shower.
Sell them one that's good and then implement the squeegee
technique before that. Take you 2 seconds bro.
So true. And then, but then when I step
out, yeah, whip the towel onto the floor above the mat, step
onto the towel. Absorb.
Just dries the last bit of your feet perfectly dry every time.
Can I? Can you?
Can I watch? Joey, demonstrate that I can

(12:13):
demonstrate you do the optimal towel.
Technique. The whip?
I don't even know what you mean.By that you whip it and then you
step on to it and then you dry it you.
Feel dried, do the squeegee technique and then do that.
You're going to be dry as a bargain, brother, you're going
to be. I reckon you're wanting a
moisturizer for how nice you're going to be if.
You dry your chest or your arms before you dry your hair.
Yeah, your hair keeps dripping and then it drips over your body

(12:35):
and you're going to do it a second time 100%.
So if you do it in that exact succinct order, you will always
be dry without having to redo any other.
Parts of your body? Do you wash your hair every time
in the shower? I do.
Not even on a podcast anymore. I'm just interested in all this.
I wear my hair every. I used to do it everyday, but it
gives you like dry scale. Yeah, yeah.
So I do it like every two days, three days.

(12:55):
Yeah, I'm like my hair. I'm like a once a week to two
times a week. Oh, I don't wash my hair like as
in like just wetting my hair under the.
Shower I I don't wet my hair fully under the shower, I just
get my hands butt and then rub my hand through my talking.
About dude, people are interested, but also also I I
wash my hair like once a week. Yeah, yeah, if that.
Yeah, I think. I'm once a week.
I'm trying to like make it longer.

(13:16):
Yeah, I just wash it when it starts to get itchy, you know,
it just gets itchy. I'm like I gotta wash that
thing. But yeah, well that's
interesting. I can try this squeegee
technique because your also yourtails are so dry as well.
But the problem is if you squeegee and your hair is still
wet, you just gonna get wet yet.No, but then you do your thing
because you're doing that and then you've already got such a

(13:37):
dry body. It's amazing how much dry you
have. You just get that layout of.
Squeegee. Squeegee yourself.
It's crazy. I thought you meant actually
grabbing the squeeze. You could do that too if you
really wanna. I was like alright.
Yeah, that's my little wife out.Try this.
Out. OK, Yeah, try that out.
Hey, let us know in the commentshow you dry yourself.
Do you go my technique, head to back to legs, rotate to the

(13:59):
front and then the arms or do you do a different sequence?
And also maybe just DM us a video.
No, no, I'm just kidding. No, I'm joking.
That's that's good. And then I also did a thing as a
kid in the shower. I get on the shower.
I don't wanna know about what you did as a kid in the shower.
No, that's cool. I'd soak myself up heaps.
Right. OK.
And then I would hug myself. I think I've told you what.

(14:21):
Hug myself, My arms. And then I bring my arms out.
Ohh the bubble. A bubble in my screen.
Cool. And then, and then the challenge
was, yeah, I wish I was double jointed because you could really
be cool. The challenge was to bring your
arms out as far as you're going to make the biggest bubble
possible. And then imagine if you were
double jointed. You could jump, swing your arms
around, miss the bubbles in the shower bubble boy.

(14:43):
Sure. And then you be and you float up
and. Then you float away.
That's interesting, yeah. Yeah, that was cool too.
See, I used to just Pierce in the shower.
So I got a little invention, A little invention by the name of
a 3D printer. One more D than two.
A 2D printer is probably just a a paper printer.

(15:03):
Now I think about two. D Printer.
It's a pen. Yeah, it's a good point.
Yeah. So this is a three, but imagine
doing that in. A3 dimensional space.
OK, I got a 3D printer. I'm looking at it right now.
I fucking cool. I I love it.
It is so cool. I I had this like really?
There's like a big stigma aroundthem because 99.9% of the stuff

(15:26):
you can print on them is just landfill basically.
Oh, you know, like most people. Oh, I printed this dragon that
fucking moves and shit. Who cares?
Yeah, you're 35, man. Jack Black's head on Steve's
body. Like, come on.
Stop printing shit like this like you don't have kids.
Waste of time. You don't have kids man.
I would have said it on my Etsy shop.

(15:46):
God with the 700 other people are selling the same free
design. I would love, I would love to
the correlation between 3D printers and kids and see how
many people have kids and many people have 3D printers It's.
Like engineers and people without kids that just print
fucking toys. Like is I didn't want to get it
to just print random BS like I don't I don't condone that.

(16:09):
I get why it could be fun sometimes, but let's be honest,
how many fucking 3D printed Dragons do you need that can
move? Yeah, like, let's come on, guys,
you're gonna look at that for 10seconds.
Oh, it's cool. It's good.
I printed it in rainbow filament.
It's rainbow. Who cares, man?
It's good point. Like good point.
So what have you printed so far?I printed a dragon and no, but

(16:29):
it's cool because it's rainbow. It's different, but it's
different than when I. Was no.
So I've, I have been, I've made it my mission to only print
things that have a use right. So when I first got it though,
it's crazy. The the bar to entry is so low.
It's like 350 bucks for the smallest one.
That's crazy. And I, I got the next one up.
There's the A1 mini, which is the smallest 1A bamboo lab A1

(16:52):
mini. I got the a 1.
So it's not the mini one, but there's this thing it's, it's
like the sunk cost fallacy. You know, it was like, I was
like, all right, I'll get the A1and then it's like, oh, but if
you want to print multiple like pieces with multiple filaments,
you need the AMS system. So I was like, oh, I'll fucking
buy the AMS system. It's actually like 300 bucks.

(17:12):
There's a bit of a ladder going on there.
And I was like, cool. And then they're like, oh, also
it doesn't come with anything toprint with.
Like it doesn't come with filaments.
So I was like, OK, OK, so I got to buy a filament as well.
Yeah, I'll get two or three different filaments.
Yep. So I start I I buy those and
then I'm like, oh, if I want to print this thing, I need a
different filament. So I was like, fuck, well, I've

(17:33):
already got the printer. I'll buy this filament.
It is like 25 bucks, but but if I print enough stuff with it,
it'll pay. It'll be fine.
And I'm like, OK, so I buy more filament and now I've got all
this filament. And then I find out, oh, hang on
a second. It absorbs a lot of moisture and
so you have to keep them in an incredibly like.
Dry the actual filament itself, like the plastic.

(17:55):
Yeah, the plastic itself absorbsmoisture and when you leave, you
can't just leave it out on the printer because it'll absorb
moisture and then it starts to print and it won't print
properly cause the filament's fucked 'cause it's full of
water. And so now I've had to go out
and I've had to buy like, like the little bags.
Of silicone, the yeah, the liquid absorbing moisture,

(18:15):
absorbing things, yeah and. Then to put it in there and then
everyone's like, Nah, bro, you got to get a tub with a, with a
rubber seal on it. And then you put the, there's
things in that and then you put them and I'm like, where does it
end? It was just supposed to be this
small little like, oh, it's cool.
I'll buy like 1-2 filaments. I'll buy the cheap little
printer and it just keeps going and it's just more and more

(18:37):
things. And it's I'm kind of so far into
the the hobby, but I can't stop now.
I'm like, well, I need to buy this other thing because I've
already spent so much money to get here in the 1st place.
Like I got to keep going. Well, how much money you think
you've spent on this third day printer?
1000 bucks. 1000 bucks. Easy, probably.
Yeah. Yeah, that's pretty big hobby.
So pretty. Yeah.
For 10. And I've and I've printed total

(19:01):
value of all the things I've printed probably like 100 bucks,
maybe $50. People might spend some good
money for that little sage holder.
Yeah, I guess. But this is the other thing
again, this is This is why I didn't tell you I want to tell
you on the podcast. So the things I've printed so
far, I printed a bunch of thingsfor the printer, like a little
catch for like the scrap elementand stuff like that.

(19:23):
So printed that print anything personal you just.
Printed everything that pissed me off.
First six hours I had the printer on I was printing
fucking a scraper for the printer, a catch for the printer
and now like just all these random parts had.
To buy a scraper. And it was a scraper watch.
And I was like, oh, this is going to be sick when the
bucket's finished printing so I can put the bucket next to the
printer so I can print stuff that's, oh, this is going to be

(19:46):
good. I had to print more filament,
yeah. So I printed that stuff, right.
Then I printed bread clips, which is actually pretty good.
Anytime I need like say we've got, you know, like 3 or 4 bags
of chips open. I just printed bread chips.
A bread clips makes sense and itdoesn't matter how many I need
'cause I just always print more,which is pretty simple so that

(20:06):
that that's what I printed firstup then I printed these little
knives which are kind of sick I printed like a box cutter, but
it's like a key ring yeah yeah. Because I'm always getting mail
and I'm, I'm always, I'm always getting mail.
Always. And I'm always needing a knife
to open me mail, but I never have it on me.
Yeah, but if it's on a key ring,you've always got it.
Useful. So that's like $10.

(20:27):
Yeah, right there. Maybe.
I'll probably buy like $10 and $10.
It's got hand rails on it. It'd be weird to, yeah.
So and then I found out you can engrave it.
Like, you know, I opened a wholeanother and I was.
Like oh I can put my name on everything I print.
OK, this is sick so I'm startingto starting to open up.
A little bit. And then I print.
What else have I fucking printed?
Then I print an incense holder. And I was like, oh, I'll print

(20:49):
like a really cool landfill plastic waste incense holder.
So I printed out like a My neighbor Totoro, like a little
holding thing. I said, oh, this is sick.
I'll print it in grey filament and then I'll paint it and it'll
be like this professional like sick thing that I'll have in my
house. So I didn't have any paint, so I
had to go buy paint. So I've already spent about

(21:11):
$1000 on filament. Why don't you just use yellow
paint? Well, that's the thing.
I couldn't you. Should have printed something
with yellow. I should have.
Damn that you would have had so much yellow paint.
It's so I'm, I went to the hobbystore because I was like, if I'm
going to do this, I'll do it right.
So I'll get paint. Actual hobby Miniature paint.
Miniature paint. So I asked the lady, I'm like,

(21:32):
hey, I need, I need 4 colours, Ineed blue, I need black, white
and just like a colour for the wood.
Yeah, no worries. Grabs that and I go.
I also need some brushes. I don't have brushes.
Yep, I'll grab brushes and I'll go should I get primer?
Like a primer to spray on it? She's like, yeah, she probably
should. I was like fuck, all right,
she'll get primer. And then I was like, and then I
need a clear coat for the glaze as well.
Can you get a clear coat? And she's like, Yep, yeah, I'll

(21:54):
get clear coat. Glaze 106 dollars.
Is for paint. Turns out the paint was only
$4.00 a jar. I should have just bought the
the paint and just left it at that.
Oh my. God Primer doesn't last very
long either. Like now you tell me.
And somehow I didn't even need the primer, by the way.
It was fucked. And so this little statue that

(22:17):
was supposed to be really cheap because I could 3D print it
ended up costing me 106. Dollars in paint.
When I couldn't. Just roll the paint.
Now you can do more. Only a blue one.
I only got blue paint like it's it.
It was just like, it's getting worse and I'm like, no, but now
I can paint a heap of stuff that's blue.
Bluey Blue Dragon. I don't want to.

(22:42):
Boys, white dragon. Oh my God, there's so many
Dragons you can. Do the worst thing.
I'm like, oh cool, now I've got one colour.
Now I can print everything in one colour.
Like it's like when I'm like, oh, I could get yellow filament
to print something in yellow. I don't want to print everything
in yellow. Now we have to buy another
filament for. It's just the more I do this

(23:02):
hobby, the more expensive it's getting.
It is it is getting frustrating,but was it fun?
It's really. Fun.
Oh, there you go. Yeah, it's really good.
And I tell you what, there was some, there was an absolute like
the first really cool sick thingthat I did with it was I was
mounting something on the wall. This thing right behind me
actually a little bored. I got to put the screws in the
wall and they just kind of don'tfit in the hole.

(23:26):
And I was like oh I need a washer to put between the screw,
but I didn't have any and I was.Like, oh, So what do you do?
What do you do? I can't even think.
Of I could go to Bunnings you. Could go to Bunnings.
Yeah, it's. 5 minutes away, yeah.
Or, or I could make my own washers with the 3D printer.
And so I designed them in the software that's measured up the
screws, made custom washers thatfit perfectly.

(23:48):
That's really cool. And now it works, yeah.
And it only took it hasn't fallen off 10.
Minutes to it'd. Be so funny.
It's just fast and now it works and it just.
Oh fuck yeah. So little things like that are
really cool and and there's a lot more I have planned and I
want to make a whole YouTube video about.
This 3D printing. Journey because there's a lot of
stuff planned I want to build but at the moment it's be it's a

(24:12):
lot more expensive than I thought it would be if I had of
just stuck with the small printer.
No AMS system. I don't think I will ever use
that. I don't know why I bought it.
I mean everyone on Reddit was like no you need to get it but I
wish I didn't get. It God damn Reddit is.
If I just bought the little printer, you know, I'd probably
be like $400.00. Yeah, Yeah.

(24:33):
But you know I. Got $400.00 for a hobby, 1000
bucks for a hobby. It's pretty.
That makes sense. I'm not gonna spend any more
money on this for a while. I don't.
OK, I've got a fair amount of filament now.
I got a fair amount of ideas forthings to print, but yeah.
What's been what? What else do you got to print?
Is there any other little I? Don't want to spoil?
It for the YouTube, there's a. Few things I want to fix around
the house that I want to I printstuff for and just reorganize my

(24:55):
whole. Office.
And, you know, print like littlethings to like, yeah, section
everything off, print custom sections for like items.
Yeah, it'd be cool. That is, that does sound sick.
Yeah, it'll probably take me like 6 months to learn how to do
that, but it'd be cool. But yeah, man, there's some cost
fallacy 'cause I'm already $1000deep.
I'm like, well, what's another? What's another 100 bucks for

(25:17):
paint, you know? It's been a week.
You've had this thing for a week.
Yeah, and also, Oh my God, I found out I printed.
So it's an incense holder. Found out I printed it in PLA,
which is like the very basic run-of-the-mill plastic.
Turns out it's not very heat resistant.
So like when the when the fucking incense gets to the
bottom it it hasn't yet, but it could end up melting the.

(25:41):
The hand and then he's not goingto be able to hold it.
Yeah. So.
You got to print off another little thing in there.
Yeah. So I've got to buy a different
filament that has a higher heat resistance.
Then I can print that thing intoit.
Yeah, it's a whole thing. Yeah, Yeah.
It's not just 3D printing anymore, is it?
No, it's it's become its own base.
Is that a whole another dimension?
Some would say it could be 4D printing, yeah.

(26:04):
It feels like it. It feels like it.
It's never ending. Common common.
I had a lot of uncommon commoners.
Oh. Old segment, bring it back.
Bringing back the uncommon commoners.
OK, Yeah, there was a lot in oneday.
One day, one. Day of just.
Not so uncommon then by. The well, that's what I'm

(26:26):
coming. I think we didn't want to change
the name of. Common commoners.
Way more common than they shouldbe.
What the hell? Why there's so many of them?
What is happening? This is weird.
There was 1 customer at work. He, I want to say he was.
That is uncommon. I want, yeah.
Yeah, that's the uncommon one, just one customer just.
One guy. What a freak.

(26:48):
Just by himself. He come into work and he, he was
looking for something and had a sort of a list.
And he's like, oh, you know, I'mjust stressed.
I'm buying all this for my sister.
And I was like, oh, that's all good, I'll help you out.
No worries. He's a bit frazzled.
And then as I started getting speaking a bit more, I obviously
realized that he wasn't, what doyou call it?
He was, he wasn't mentally all there.

(27:09):
He was a bit, you know what I mean?
Few screws loose. I want, I don't know what it
was, but he was just sort of, I don't know if maybe it was the
anxiety of having to shop for the first time because it looked
like he's never been in a supermarket before.
He was very like, he was very frazzled anyway.
And we and he's like, oh, you have to shove my sister.
I'm like, oh, that's no worries,I'll hop you.
And he's like, yeah, she's got cancer.
And I was like, oh, that's no good.
I'm really sorry to hear that. I'm like, I hope she's, you

(27:29):
know, I hope she pulls through, you know, yeah, yeah, I was
being sort of thing. And he's like, yeah, yeah.
And my toe really hurts like. And I was like, oh, OK, yeah,
that's no good. Like, God, I hope your toe pulls
through like that sucks. And then he's like, yeah, it
hurts on the side of the toad. I'm like, OK, bro, I don't
really care. Like, do you want your cheese?
Like I'm showing you a tasty cheese is it's cool.
And he's like, yeah. And then I'll show him the

(27:50):
cheese. And he's like, yeah, yeah.
And I'm like, oh, well, I hope your sister pulls through.
Like, if there's anything else, just yelling.
And he goes, what do you think Ishould do about my toe?
I'm like, dude literally walkingaway.
This one, I'm like, oh, like, I don't know, dude.
And he's like, oh, I just don't know.
It really hurts. And like, hurts to walk.
Go to a doctor, man. And I was.
Like I stacked shelves, bro. I got no idea.
And I was like, oh, it's probably a question for your

(28:11):
doctor, dude. Like I'm.
Going to ask. Bro, I had no idea what he
wanted me to say. And I was like, oh, you know,
he's like, yeah, he's starting to like, start to describe it
more. And I'm like, dude, it's
question for your doctor. I just actually, I was like, if
you need anything else in the supermarket, I'm happy to help
you out, but physically I'm not going anywhere near.
Your fucking time, bro, Damn it.Yeah, you know, You know what
the problem is with your work and customer service in general?

(28:33):
Yeah, There's no escape. I can't be, I can't be rude to.
Talking to people like that and I have understood this actually
brings up some media and say I've I now understand why nobody
says hello to each other in Melbourne because I did it the
other day and I've regretted it so bad.
I'm walking home with Frank, my dog, walking him and now, you

(28:54):
know, like you walk past people and in Brisbane you're like,
good day, mate. Hey mate, how are you?
You're like, yeah, good. No one talks to anyone in
Melbourne. I'm walking past this bloke,
this old dude, and he's just sitting there and he's just like
kind of stroking his chin, like thinking kind of thing.
I was like, that's weird. And he looks up at me and he
just starts staring and I was like, that's kind of weird.
I was like, hey mate, how are you?
And he goes, I like your dog. And I was like, oh, thanks man.

(29:16):
And he's like, I like dogs. I was like, OK, cool.
I'm like continue. And he's like, he's like, oh,
he's a good dog. And I was like, yeah.
And he's like, I really liked. I really liked them.
And he started walking after me and I was like, oh, OK.
Like, yeah, he's a good boy. Yeah, he's a good dog.
Oh my God. He's like, yeah, I want a dog
like that. I was like, OK.
And he just. And then just kept.

(29:37):
And he followed me for like 100 almost all the way back to where
I live. I just.
Kept He wants to eat your dog, bro, really eat Frank.
It was weird. And I was like, yeah, like, OK,
and just started walking and he kept talking and I was like, do
I stop? Yeah, and keep talking to this
guy. Or do I keep going and I really
want him to touch my dog because.
He looked like he had a lead. I don't know.

(29:58):
Why he wants? To touch his toe.
OK, wanted the same guy he could.
Have been he's always like yeah,dog's a good up man and I'm like
no, fuck off like I just. What is this?
I was. Just saying hello to you as I
walked past. Like dude.
Yeah, it's just been, it's just polite, like, yeah, so good at
my going. And then he and he just seemed a
little bit like unstable as well, just it was a bit scary.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was never afraid of this guy

(30:21):
with a sore toe. I just was like.
Well, he didn't follow you home.No, he couldn't.
He couldn't. This guy did.
And I was like, Oh my God, like,you know, you can get your own
dog. He physically.
Couldn't follow me home. Yeah, he's Doughhead, that.
Was a good point living up. What do I do?
Do you have a dog? I like it.
I like dogs. I saw this dog the other day
that I really. Liked, yeah, he said a few other

(30:42):
things, but it was very. I don't know, I just kind of.
Just just you don't say hello. I just associated a.
Little bit I was like, oh. Just like why everyone's rude,
It's 'cause these the people that are too polite.
Like I don't want to talk something.
Wrong with that guy. Yeah.
The next uncommon common are it happened to a lady.
I was sort of walking down an aisle and she was looking at me.
And then she was sort of like, wasn't really.

(31:02):
She sort of just looked over that I was walking.
And then she sort of looked back.
And then she looked back. This guy just like was like
trying to get past her and then,like fell and just fully bumped
into her. Yeah.
And like, she sort of like pushed her and looked over and
he's sort of like hustled off and ran away.
And I mean, but me and her sort of looked at him like, what the.
What was that about? Like, OK, that was kind of
weird. He was in there.
Yeah. He's like, he wasn't in any
hurry until he got nearer. And then he had to be in a.
It was really weird. And she was like, that was

(31:24):
straight. Like, he just bumped into me.
And as she was saying that, another guy bumped into her.
Oh, really? She's like, that guy just bumped
into me. That's so weird.
And this other guy just fully knocks her over.
And I was just like, what? I'm just like, what is
happening? And I'm like, maybe it's you.
That's what I said to her. I was like, maybe you're the
problem to get bumped into twicein this, in this kind of like 10
seconds. So funny.

(31:45):
Oh. My God, that poor lady.
So we had a good laugh about that.
She was like, what is this? What's wrong with the shop?
And I was like, I don't know. I'm like, why is everyone
bumping into here? Like, what did you do?
She's really nice and polite, but it was just super funny.
She had a good laugh. In a bumper car the whole time.
What's going on here dude? Bump me on the back like someone
pranked her with a bump. Bump me side.

(32:06):
Yeah. And then another uncommon common
arm was this Italian bloke. He was really, really nice.
He was this old Italian bloke. I think he was in his maybe 50s
or 60s. Yeah.
And I was sort of stuck in shelves and he was kind of in my
way a bit. And then we still like turned
around and did that like awkward, like, oh, which way are
you going? And he's like, haha, yeah, we
laughed about her. And then we did it again like 5

(32:26):
seconds later and he goes, oh, we've got to stop running into
each other. And I was like, yeah, yeah, he
knows people are going to start talking about us.
And I was like, haha, yeah. And he goes, he goes, let him
talk. And I was like, like, fuck yeah,
he cares. Whatever.
He's like, fuck the haters. It was so funny.
Just the way he said it was likehe looked at him and was like,
let him talk. I was like, yeah, let him.
That's so good. I just I wanted to put him in

(32:47):
there because it was like a fun uncommon comment it.
Wasn't just like, yeah, I do like that.
OK, one more and this was from one of the people I work with.
And she's like, I think she might be like 18 and she's
really sweet. This you know, she's really nice
and she and we not meant to, butwe listen to podcasts while
we're working. Yeah and I'm listening to a
podcast. I'm like, oh, what podcast you
listening to? She's like, oh, I'm listening to

(33:08):
a book. And then I was like, yeah, I'm
sort of running out of podcasts because I'm here for 8 hours and
I listen to 8 podcasts a day andI need some more podcasts.
Yeah yeah. And she's like, oh, check this
podcast out and she recommends me a podcast.
And it was like the title was like, they are viewer discretion
because it's, you know, the title is like was like, I want
my partner to be racist. And I was like, OK.

(33:31):
And I was like, this is a weird title.
And she's like, yeah, yeah. She's like, just listen.
You really like it. And I'm like, listen.
And I'm listening to it and it'sabout, I don't know, again,
view. We don't normally talk about
this on the podcast. I just OK, it's I didn't know
this was a thing as well. Yeah, it's about this, this
African American straight man who likes to have sex with other
men, but he likes to have sex with white men who treat him

(33:55):
really poorly. OK, so it's like a little like a
king. Yeah, right.
It's called race play. Yeah.
And I had no idea this was a thing.
I'm listening to it and this, I just was not expecting it from
this sweet, you know, this like sweet girl who's like, yeah,
you'll really like it. I'm sure you will.
I'm just listening to the most podcast.
I'm sitting there like, what didshe just recommend me?
Surely it can't be serious. Surely she did that that to

(34:16):
like. I don't know.
And then she was like, oh, what do you think?
And I was like, I didn't know itwas a thing.
I was like, I was like, you've just opened my eyes to a whole
nother like experience of what people that is really funny.
Sorry, rant. And I was just like blown away
by it. And she's like, oh, and then you
should listen to this one. It was like, I used to love my
brother and I was like, I'm good.
I think I'm pretty chill. Just like not listening to these
podcasts anymore. And I was given to like comedy

(34:38):
podcasts. I was like, oh, I should check
out, you know, this, this and this.
And she's like, yeah, check out fucking I.
See, I I never take it like strangers like recommendations
anymore. I took a stranger's
recommendation for a book once. There was like a girl I I saw
once and she's like, oh, you should check.
I'll let you borrow my book. You should read.
It's my favorite book in the world.

(34:58):
I was like. Fuck, it was like 800 pages and
I was like shit. And I grabbed and I was like,
yeah, cool, thanks, Never saw her again.
But still had a book. And I was like, fuck, I got to
read it before I get it back because oh, it's going to be
awkward being like, oh hey, here's your book.
I didn't read it, so I read thiswhole book, right.
It's three books separate, but it's the anthology, so it's all

(35:19):
the three books in one. So I had to read all three
books. It is like.
Definitely. I didn't have to.
If you didn't like it, you couldjust.
I felt bad. I felt bad.
So it was a it was like a Twilight RIP off, but it was
like gnomes and, and but like this teenage girl was actually
when on an 18th birthday, it turns out she's actually like a

(35:39):
gnome and she's got gnome powers, but she's not short.
She's like, it's like classic, like bad right?
Where it's like, yeah, she was young but petite and hot and
strong. And also she but she had powers
and also she was secretly the gnome queen.
And like, so she's like the Princess to the gnome Kingdom
and she gets kidnapped by them. And then there's this love

(36:01):
triangle between her and like a bad boy gnome guy.
And then, like a regular, I think it was gnomes or Pixies or
something like that, and I read the whole fucking trilogy where
she ascends to power, throws herrebellion and fights off like
these other people. And like, read the whole thing.
And it was the worst book I've ever read in my life.

(36:22):
And then I returned the book to her.
And after, like, I'm finally like, hey, can I give this book
back to her one anymore? Return to her.
I go, hey, yeah, like I read thebook like, yeah, I really liked
it. And she was like, oh, really?
I don't even remember what happens.
I was like. I'll tell you what, I've.
Spent the last two months reading this shit.

(36:42):
Fucking book Gnome Journey just.For that interaction, because I
was worried if I went, yeah, I read the book, I really liked it
and she go if I was worried she'd be like, who was your
favorite character? Or what was it this follow up
quiz? Yeah.
So I wanted to make sure I knew what I was talking about.
And she went, oh, I'm, I've readit for years, honestly.
That's so funny. It was your favorite book and
you haven't read it for years? You kidding me?

(37:03):
She's like, I don't even remember.
What it's about, that's mental. I was like, because I was like,
oh, yeah, you know, like this character, like, I like the, you
know, the dynamic between these two people.
And she's like, oh, I don't evenremember.
That character, it's. Like complete waste of time,
never saying anybody's recommendation again, never
reading any books that I don't find out on my own.
I'm not. I'm not doing it.

(37:24):
Yeah, I'm not listening to that podcast anymore.
Yeah, Yeah. It was like the, oh, it's not
that I understand if you want tolisten to that podcast.
And to be honest, like the questions the interviewers asked
this guy were pretty good. The whole podcast was done
really well. Yeah.
It was just the subject matter. I was not expecting to listen to
that at work with other people walking around me hearing about
an African American man who enjoys this sort of and how he

(37:46):
got into it and how he and the community.
And it was just over my eyes toomuch to something I didn't need
to know. And.
He wrote a he did a whole podcast about.
That yeah, it was like 30 minutes and but it was these two
other guys who find. It's called other other People's
lives. It's got one of the basement
yard boys on it. Oh.
OK. Yeah, it's good.
Like I'm, I'm sure there's some good stories in it, but that was
the first one she showed me and I was like, I don't.
She was like this one's. Really.
This one's sick. And then she was telling me

(38:07):
about other ones. And I was like, and she's like,
why aren't you shocked about this?
I'm like, I'm at work, and I'm just grossed out by this whole
thing. It was really funny.
It was really, really funny. So she's the uncommon commoner.
Yeah. Work.
She was the uncommon commoner. Not the people in the podcast.
It was her. Yeah.
Because I was not. Expecting that one to recommend
for sure. Well, that's all the time we
have on the Wizards Tower. If you'd like to reach the

(38:29):
