Welcome to Like A Hero — a hobbyist 3D printing channel focused on real-world printing, tabletop miniatures, and the fun (and occasional fails) of learning the craft.
I’m a guy who turned his garage and then, office into a miniatures workshop. This channel documents the entire journey: dialing in printers, testing filaments, fixing common problems, printing custom miniatures and tabletop gaming, and sharing the little wins and lessons along the way.
Whether you’re new to 3d printing, deep into minis, or just love the problem-solving side of the hobby, you’re in the right place.
I read every comment and reply to as many as I can. Drop your questions, your fails, or your favorite prints — let’s build this community together.

Removed 6 videos (my first six videos) I was also effected by the Markscan stuff. The close up video where I compared different layer heights using a model from cults3d was flagged. I removed the other similar videos (one where I painted the same model from cults3d and showed the entire process “I Suck at Painting”) even though they all had just a few hundred views each.
I do this channel for fun and am shocked and grateful for our growth so I will continue to just 3d print things that I want to print and not start doing other stuff just because some sleezy company employs a broken ai system to spam strikes on anything that even appears close to something they have or just claim unfair competition like they did with GHAMAK (they know it is flawed but they do it on purpose knowing most people will just comply rather than fight).
I will change the way I shoot b roll and will refrain from mentioning certain names.
Even though last weeks video mentioned the mmf page of the creator and Sundays video will as well, I am not sure if I will even do that anymore.
One of my favorite things to do is write a little lore into my videos and I think I will keep that because I enjoy doing it, hopefully it all works out!

The algorithm doesn’t lie. This is the whole different side on YouTube that I’m trying to educate myself on

Out of the 6 people I know who play tabletop simulator, 100% of them bought 11th edition launch box. I don’t think GW understand the reason people play TTS, it’s not to save money

Hi everyone! I’ve decided to disable YouTube memberships moving forward. I recently saw a few people join this route but its not fair for you. I truly appreciate the support, but I want to make sure your contributions go as far as possible, YouTube takes a significant portion of membership fees, which isn't the best value for you as a supporter.
If you’d like to continue supporting the channel, I’ve moved everything over to Patreon. It’s a much more efficient way for you to back my work, get discord access, early access to video releases, help troubleshooting, and it ensures that your support goes directly toward helping me create more content. www.patreon.com/c/LikeAHero
If you recently joined please reach out to me so I can help you resolve any issues.
Thank you so much for being part of this community!

Tomorrow’s video is something that I have been wanted to do for a long time. A legendary print for a legendary character, all FDM on 0.06 layer height using the cut tool in orca slicer and resin style supports.
I love the lore talking and 3d printing format and I hope you guys do as well (let me know in comments please). Hope you all enjoy it. Video drops Sunday at 8am PST!

Thank you to everyone joining the community! 2 weeks ago we were close to 4k subs and now we are pushing to 5k. At the start, I just thought it would be cool to share my 3d printing journey and am grateful to have all of you that have joined me. This youtube stuff is a whole different animal but I am navigating through it like a battle brother through the warp. Almost 1k subs in 28 days is crazy and really unexpected. Ty guys <3. Keep on printing!
