Meet the Polymaker – your weekly front-row seat to the world of 3D printing! 🖨️✨
Every week, I bring you the latest and most interesting 3D printing news, spotlight incredible prints from our amazing community, and sit down with a new maker to hear their story. From industry pros to hobbyists with jaw-dropping projects, each episode is a chance to learn, get inspired, and connect with the people pushing the limits of what’s possible.
✨ Tonight’s Guest: Captain Kearn
Captain Kearn is a maker, 3D printing creator, and self-proclaimed professional at taking on projects he probably shouldn't. Known for his hands-on approach to printer repairs, upgrades, firmware tinkering, and bringing old machines back to life, he's built a community around learning through experimentation, solving real-world problems, and proving that almost any printer deserves a second chance. When he's not rescuing 3D printers, you'll usually find him diving into ambitious builds fueled by a love of '80s nostalgia and sci-fi.
Tonight we'll be talking about 3D printer rehabs, tackling ambitious maker projects, troubleshooting and experimentation, the influence of '80s pop culture and sci-fi on creativity, and why sometimes the best projects are the ones everyone says you probably shouldn't attempt. 🖨️🔧🚀🛸
