We were lucky enough to sit down and speak with Joel Telling, also known on YouTube as 3D Printing Nerd. We asked him a variety of questions, related to his experiences with 3D printing, where he sees the tech going, and what’s in store for his viewers in the future.
3DN: Introduce yourself, and let us know some more about your background!
Sure! I’m Joel, and I host the 3D Printing Nerd show on YouTube. I’m a husband and father hailing from the Seattle area. I have a background in software development, mobile devices, and quality assurance. I love tech and gadgets and all sorts of wonderful electronic doo-dads.

3DN: What made you set up your Youtube channel, and what did you do before you started uploading videos?
I started my YouTube channel because I wanted to show off what I was printing with my first 3d printer. I’ve had a YouTube account for more than 10 years (I think 2006?) but that was just my personal spot. 3D Printing Nerd was born as a way to start from scratch, and try to have an audience learn with me as I went along my 3D printing journey.
