My name is David Florian, and I go by the moniker Dr. D-Flo in the online world. My content focuses on digital fabrication techniques, which are any workflows that rely on a computer to control the manufacturing process. This includes both additive (e.g., 3D printers) and subtractive (e.g., CNC mills) machines. In the past, these devices were large, complex, and only found in industrial warehouses. But today, for a couple hundred dollars anyone can purchase a 3D printer, CNC router, or laser cutter.

This channel focuses on not only how to program and use these instruments but also how to build them. My video guides cover a spectrum of information for both the beginner and the seasoned DIYer. I error on the side of providing too much information because it can be frustrating to watch a video and leave with more questions than answers.

I am always looking for project collaborators and industrial partners, so feel free to reach out to me through the email.

🚨 Today’s the day! 🚨 After 2.5 years of planning, building, and pushing the limits of 3D printing, the PRINTcess is ready to make her grand debut! This full-size Benchy has been an absolute adventure to create, and I can’t wait to share every part of the journey with you.

This project relies heavily on my custom large-format 3D printer, and there’s still time to catch up on that build if you’re curious about how it all started: www.youtube.com/playlist?list...

See you at 2 pm (CT)! Premiere link: https://youtu.be/upTUYPmi8Vk

Hey guys! You have a little under a week to submit your 3D prints for #ElegooDay2024. As a judge, I will get the opportunity to vote on the best models with the chance for you win some some awesome prizes.

More information for submissions here: www.elegoo.com/pages/elegoo-day

This is an advertisement. I used all compensation from judging to buy material for my 3D printed boat, which was printed in part on an Elegoo Giga! That video is coming very soon!

Some of you were unimpressed with my flower planter, so I decided to print an even bigger one 😂

JK! Thank you for all your support on my recent video: https://youtu.be/3MYteODyYHU - More large format projects coming soon!
