  1. 3,000 people attended 3DPrintopia last month. At the front door, PrintKits was giving away a mini-kit that makes a very useful soldering helper. As of this morning, that model's been downloaded 128 times. That is not a high engagement rate. Free useful tool! Nobody cares!

    To be fair, I've only engaged with ten or fifteen of the 100 vendors I talked to there. But I've got a list, and I'm still working through it. I guess we're spoiled with too many opportunities.

  3. My personal highlights from #3DPrintopia first day:

    HueForge. Amazing imagery, and the booth had a HUGE! number of samples. Well over a hundred, every one stunning.

    HEN3DRIK's electroplated prints. They look much more convincing in person than on YouTube.

    I met Gabe "soozafone" Rosiak, creator of the Dummy13 models. Nice guy. (Everybody was nice. Nobody was too famous or too busy to just talk.)

    (crappy photos.)

  5. Key takeaways from 3DPrintopia:

    Prusa, Positron, and LDO Motors were the only printer vendors I saw with booths. SnapMaker had some posters for their U1 kickstarter. The most common printers in the booths were Voron-likes, Bambu, and Prusa.

    Lots of filament vendors. Lots of Youtubers.

    Surprising numbers of huge prints (like, too big to transport in a car). Huge variety in surface finishes and colors.

    Everybody had MakerCoins.

  7. They say they're moving to a bigger venue next year. Once we made it through the front gate, it wasn't too crowded.

    Spousey and I only saw about 60% of the show today. We're going back tomorrow.

  9. In nine hours, I'll be at #3DPrintopia. The last 3D printing show I went to was MRRF 2018*. So I'll wear my MRRF 2018 T-shirt today.

    I sincerely hope I don't buy a new printer this weekend.
