YouTube Episode: We Designed A Print-In-Place Slingshot... And It Is Scary!

If you thought print-in-place technology had reached its limits, think again. In our latest 3DJake YouTube video, "We Designed A Print-In-Place Slingshot... And It Is Scary!", we showcase a project that is as crazy as it is fascinating: a fully print-in-place slingshot. No assembly, no screws, no "where is that part again?" Just take it off the build plate, and it's ready to use immediately!

There's just one catch: you'll need a tool changer to bring this project to life. But that's precisely what makes the experiment so intriguing. The aim was to explore the potential of beam interlocking, and the result is truly impressive. Using a high-strain TPU such as Fiberlogy 30D, you can achieve speeds of over 30 m/s. Yes, you read that correctly!

The video not only shows you the final result, but also provides insight into the possibilities of modern multi-material printing. And honestly, if this is just the beginning, what comes next?
