wonderful image from the video!
It's a pencil holder!
A Saudi Arabian vlogger was testing his new 3d printer and that was his first product. that really inspired me to make it
first: I used Autodesk Fusion 360 to design, make dimensions, extrusion works and make stl file.
second: I used Ultimate Cura to open the stl file and adjust the temperature, infill, layer height, scale down the dimensions and save as gcode file in order to be read by the printer.
third: I used (PRUSA i3 Mk2 3d printer) to print the design and grey pla as a material
design

Prusa 3d printer with grey pla filament
First : I opened Fusion 360 to sketch my design .
Then the steps is :
1- I choose create new sketch .
2- I draw a circle 50 mm diameter .
3- I choose offset plate 60 mm distance between them .
4- Then I draw another circle by same measurements .
5- I connect them using Loft feature.
6-from edit form, we can twist each layer from the second one by 15deg and increase it to by 75 in the end
7- I use shell feature to make hole in my design.
8- Finally choose save as mesh choosing stl.
The process :
1- I transfer my G-code to SD card and put it into the machine.
2- I turned on the 3D printer.
3- choose my G-code file.
4- After the bed become pre-heated i watch the first layer to make sure that all things works well.
The twisting of outer shape was difficult for me but I watched it on the youtube video 3d printed pencil holder
the second thing was how to edit and modify the temperature of the design
loft feature
surely I will use the extrusion features such as "loft" if the enclosure is plastic!
the coolest thing was revolve feature!
I will never forget how to use loft feature.
