Finally, someone who understands the importance of having needle nose pliers at all times..
I always keep a pair within arms reach. The fact that I operate a 3D printer might have something to do with this :D
Needle nose pliers have a limitless amount of potential uses.
I enjoyed the humor, nicely done man! 😄👍

Thanks and yes, I think people don't realise how much they will use them if they have them.

A 3d printer you say? Tell me something. Can you print a graphite mold for casting copper and aluminium? Im not sure how that works. Maybe you need to get a block and cut it with a cnc or something.

Great question, I am not sure this can be done with the type of 3D printing I do, FDM (fused deposit modeling). The materials used in this type of printing have a relatively low melting rate, one which is much lower than molten aluminum. I think it is not possible with FDM printing but I could be wrong.

CNC machining utilizing subtractive cutting from a block of material for creation of molds might be the better method.

I saw a video with a guy turning PLA prints into metal with a unique casting method. You might find it interesting.

That's really cool for doing one offs. How thin are the walls of that?

What I am looking for is something I can use over and over and not have to deal with sand all day. They are dinosaur footprints to sell as souvenirs.

Definitely a pliers masterclass but you teased with the nose hair removal and did not deliver 1/10. Not sure who was tortured though because you were the one out of breath so I assumed some kinky stuff with the misses there. Nice vid. !PIZZA !LOLZ

Oh I delivered, pal.
