About Proper Printing
ABOUT ME
My name is Jón Schone
I want to create something. Something new.
I started as a precision mechanist, attended mechanical engineering for a while and eventually ended up as an electronics engineer. I’ve worked at several technical companies, among them Philips, and it took me quite some time to find out where my heart really lies. This can be put very simplistic: creating something new.
Whether it’s a piece of software, a simple specific holder, a new mechanical concept or even just a nice looking photograph, fun video or piece of music. This is exactly what YouTube enables me to do and I'm very thankful for that.
Because of my broad interest I am not a specialist. I have worked with many specialists and people much smarter and more skilled than I am. I learned a lot from them, but this also made me realize that I'm not one of them. However, my skills and knowledge are good enough to turn my ideas into reality and that is what I embraced and show in my videos.
GOING FROM
Idea to reality
Turning an idea, concept, or even a hunch into reality is what I love to do. I enjoy the thrill of chasing the unknown, not knowing what the result will look like, while having a vague image or vision in mind. I want to share this passion, feeling, and experience with as many people as possible and help them with their own journey.
I achieve this by creating content that inspires, excites, and entertains people. I show the process of my ideas, experiments, and inventions. We live in an era where tools that can create sophisticated and high-quality parts are accessible to individual people like you and me. At home, behind a desk, we can achieve things that previously required a big budget and a lot of expertise.
3D printing is ideally suited for turning ideas into reality. However, it’s just a tool to get the job done. A 3D printer on its own is not going to do much. It needs a design to print. A design starts with an idea that needs to be sparked. The experiments I show in my videos can be that spark. I show that trying out new ideas, even if they fail, have two outcomes: either you learn new things, or you get new ideas.
