23 Free Prints For Beginners (That Don't Suck)

Hahaha glad I’m not alone in trying to find something to print with a vast sea of printable files!

I really like how honest your videos are. Like you are not afraid to admit if a print of yours fail, but you also don't make a big thing out of it. I am not new to 3D printing, but I can imagine the vibe you give off would be really helpful. You don't feel like the "I am the expert and what I say is the ultimate way of doing this" kinda guy, but like one from the community who themself is learning together with their audience.

Thanks for having us on this prestigious list! 🍺 It's great to see you back with new videos 💜

Seriously I am so glad you made this, because my first printer was bought from a friend that already had all the kinks worked out of the system; and I just bought a printer that I am having to start from scratch on. So starting over at the basics is exactly where I need to be.

Thank you dor all your hard work, research and contributions to crafting and the overall table top experience.

So on the one hand, Danny is trying to make a going business concern of Lost Adventures... and on the other, he's showing everyone where to get free print files. Got to respect that.

That's a decent list. I especially like the trees (very multipurpose use for rpgs)
Because getting a benchy to come out right might take several tries, someone needs to make a benchy that is a useful and good terrain piece, like a campfire or tent or trade booth, because piles of little steam boats aren't so useful.

This is a fantastic video! I especially like the "tolerances" topics. I feel like there should be a Level Up in 3d printing list that can happen. Level 1 print the pre-installed models in the 3d printer. Level 2 print out a 3 hour length print. Level 3, print out a 2 piece treasure chest, Level 4 print out a multi part dial counter, etc. A comprehensive list would level up the new 3d printer through a spectrum body of 3d printed products.

Great to see you back at it Danny!! Great vid man. I still need to get my first print out of my FDM. Intimidating but I need to get that sucker running

10:46 I thought you were going to say "he's not with us anymore" my heart dropped lol

I love everything from this list. And i even saw stuff on the websites u gave us which I love so much! This is one of the few videos that gives me more hope with printing for DnD with FDM. Love it

I've been watching your videos for a couple of years now and have seen you go from a little shy and wordy, to master of your domain with top notch editing. I loved this video. You look like you are having so much fun! Keep it up. It's appreciated.

Thank you Danny for reigniting that 3D interest.
Powering up my Ender 3 now to start on this list. I’ve never heard of dungeon sticks. So that will be my first! 🤓
Appreciate you sharing your time and knowledge. Blessed be.

great video! thanks so much for making this. i’m just getting started in the 3d printing world and your video gave me some great inspiration and the confidence to get started! will definitely be checking out more of your videos!

Those dungeon sticks are exactly what I'm looking for. I like to just draw my dungeons on white erase tiled boards, but sometimes the walls rub off. Being able to just quickly stick low walls together would be perfect.

Welcome back. Great idea having prints with different challenges.

Thank you so much. Fantastic content. This is exactly why I got a 3D printer in the first place and had no idea where to start. Keep up the great work!

This was maybe my favourite video of yours. I love this and am about to go on a journey printing all of them!

Excellent music, crisp editing, great video. To the point and easy to watch. 5 stars!

Danny! Great video. I'm buying a 3d printer soon and this is exactly what I needed to get up and running. Great to see you're doing so well. You were always a great guy. Cheers -Garth

Danny, glad to see you're back, was missing these videos.
Now to watch...

Fantastic video, Danny! I’m loving your channel and learning so much. Best wishes from Canada!

I don't play D&D but I love looking at the models and the sheer quality of the designs!

Danny, you've gotten some gray since you taught me how to use my Ender 3 pro! Good to see you again!

Glad to see you back!

your vids are awesome and huge for a new guy stepping into the world of 3D printing. keep up the amazing work

The Earth Golem from Rocket Pig Games was the first thing we printed on FDM and it was very easy to print with no issues. Cool design too!

Been printing for two years now and still found some cool stuff I need to print! Also a fan of the dungeon sticks over more standard tiles.

The Bugbear looks fantastic!

Thanks dude ! I got my printer about 2 weeks ago and finally had time to set it up ! These are so cool

This was my first video of yours that I have watched. Love it, you earned a sub.

Great to see you back at the vids.

Thanks not only for this video but for being such a great resource for beginners and the community.

I used the spiral dice tower for years, before the tab that attaches the tower to the base finally snapped. Make sure you set your infill to 100% when you make these small parts!

The Bugbear looks amazing, far better than what I would have expected from FDM..very cool!

Great video Danny - thanks for the recommendations!

I’ve had my printer for a couple of months, and I highly recommend the gridfinity organizer system. It’s a modular system to organize your tools and supplies. The entire project is free, and the creator released files for others to make their own modules that add to the system.
Most useful to those of us that like minis are the brush and pick holders, but I keep finding more pieces to print. My hobby workspace has never been so well organized.

Great stuff Danny! Thanks for sharing!!

i'm not huge into D&D but these were really awesome and there are a few that i want to do when i get my printer

Thank you very much. Awesome list of very nice items to print for game-night. I just purchased my first printer (Ender 3 V2). I am looking forward trying out these items as my first prints. I‘m really enjoying the idea of the dungeon sticks. They would work pretty well with my UDT (ultimate dungeon Terrain) that I crafted based on the idea from the channel Dungeon Craft.

Came to the video looking for ideas of what makes good prints. I didn't expect the answer to be trees and rocks but there you go!

Please make a part 2!!! (This would be an awesome series!!)

Thanks for keeping away from trinket level stuff. Nice to see things we'd actually appreciate having

Too funny, finding things to print is a battle for me.....even after many years of the hobby...great video...

I'm glad I found your channel while scrolling because I'm trying to start DND with my wife and I really wanted some table top props!

My son and I just bought a Creality printer and this video couldn't have come at a better time. Thanks!

Thank you for this video. I got my first filament printer this past Christmas and I am still in the neophyte stage.

This is awesome! Most of these are too big for my tiny resin printer, but it’s neat to see the possibilities

Just Bought a 3D printer, I’m definitely going to take your advise on starters to print.

I would recommend fdm printing a d20 at standard and 3x size. It really helps you dial in elephants foot, adhesion, print speed, and cooling. Plus you get new clicky clack rocks

Just got my printer yesterday, this is gonna be really helpful

I’m not into D&D but I see the merit in all of these. Nice pick! Thanks.

That fates end dice tower was the 3rd thing I printed on my ender 3 turned out well, had a small issue with bed adhesion but since got that fixed.

Super! Going to print them all!

Just subscribed to you! Thank you so much! 😊🙏🏻👍🏻 I’m just starting out and I don’t know what the print yet! This really helps a ton!

Omg, never heard of this guy, but as a DM with a new 3d printer, I must say, this is so awesome!

Thank you. We just put together our Ender Pro 3. We appreciate it.

I have literally no room for a printer but DAMN this video made me seriously want one. Awesome content!!!

I'm on the market for my first 3d printer, and I can't wait to print out some of these tree's, and that mug lol.

After watching this, I decided to print that mug. Longest print I've done so far but it is awesome.

holy fuck man, the more i dive into 3d printing the more excited I get. there is just SO much you can do from so many different sides(game, practical,engineer,etc,etc) and as a 3d modeler being able to hold a creation in real life is a DREAM. I don't even play that much anymore and these are still cool things to have/try out. really well made video too, super enjoyed myself :)

Great to see MakersAnvil being featured here. I support them on Patreon. The dude is awesome.

Cool stuff! Thank you for sharing.

Subscription earned because of the SuperMetroid on the background. Nice tips bro. Thanks for the vid.

I am sooo curious to know how the prints turn out to be so smooth on their surface? Do you post-process them or any specific slicer settings?

I'm actually a MTG player but this is still SUPER useful and much appreciated!

Bro, your videos are very inspiring 👏

My first 3D print was a tiny lightsaber I had designed in my CAD class back during sophomore year of highschool. My god have my designs and prints gotten better!

Welcome back buddy! :)

Hey! It's been a while, welcome back

Great video, it's cool to see how much you enjoy doing this. I can't wait for your next kickstarter. I know you've posted several setting videos but I always enjoy seeing how you got your results.

I hadn't heard of dungeon sticks, those are pretty clever.

That first one the multi purpose container would be nice to both store your dice in the big compartment and your DND weed in the small compartment.

So much free files, great to learn with.

I just got my first printer an ender 5 plus. Looking forward to printing some of these. Or all of them lol

Haha, I don't know how this happened, but I missed this video and just saw it for the first time now. Thank you for mentioning BriteMinis - sorry I'm 8 months (!) late!

hi, great video, i have'nt got a 3d printer yet should get it tomorrow and watching your video i cant wait to try it , thanks

Love it, thanks!

I love TRPG culture, and Dice Games in general.
I finally bought a 3D Printer, just this month actually, so I can supersize my Hero Forge Characters.
Instead of paying $50 for a 2× Nylon Plastic that only stands 2 inches, I can print a 9 inch behemoth in superfine detail from the STL for just $7.
I'll still save the cash for the new full color minis (I wouldn't have the time or money to afford all the individual Army Paints, or space to store it all otherwise, especially something so small in detail), but now if ever I want to relive the Joy of Painting, I can just put down a couple bucks for Folk Art or something, nothing too expensive, and the larger figurine will be easier to paint anyhow.

The life counter. Ive printed it the way yo make it work is to have its center tube X and Y reduced to 97% and the same with the center locking pin. Also adding a dab of glue to both sides of the center tube if you dont intend to mismatch parts. And print the tube seperately from the other parts

this video is pure gold

extremely helpful video

So my printer is on the way and this was the best video ever for me.. thank you so much.. now onto your site to spend some money :D😀

Amazing videos! Thanks so much :D

Hey Danny, great vid as always. Quick question, where did you get the Tiamat model showcased in the opening, at 21 seconds ?

Great man! ☺️

Cool to see some Vae Victis Miniatures!

Great video!

Trees are my go to 😅 amazing video tnx

My current settings are great, but i get a lot of stringing. I would love to try your print profile

I Love That Dice Tower

thanks for sharing!!!

Pretty neat! All the tree needed was a place for X the Owl and Henrietta Pussycat!

Thanks!! Nice to know and I have not printed anything yet, still kind of scared to mess up the first one !!! 😅😅😅

I'm getting an Anycubic i3 mega pro, i'm very excited for it, this helped

Im new 3ds printing as a whole so seeing this video is godsend

I love this. I want to do it.

You are awesome! Great video

This video is soo good! I would like it if I wasn't interested in printing haha

My printer shows up in a week. I think I'll try the Dungeon Sticks. Thank you, great video!
