Hey Steem-it!
Initially, I just wanted to say that I’m super pumped to be a part of this community. I’ve been following cryptocurrencies for the better part of this year, and I must say, Steem is one of the most exciting things happening in this space. It has completely changed my outlook on content creation, and has filled me with hope and direction where I was otherwise lacking.. (Instagram, Facebook, Youtube...) Anyway, continue down to see my plans for the future!
About Me
My name is Brian Michael Taylor. I have 3 first names, and that will probably be the only thing you remember about me.. but its cool, we can still be friends! I currently live in Nashville, Tennessee and I’ve been on a hiatus from school for the past year and a half, living with my parents.. soft sobbing. The reason I took time off from school, initially, was to complete a Co-op with Bridgestone. That was great, but after I got a taste of corporate life I realized I wanted to do something a little bit different... Something like starting my own business! So after finishing my Co-op I set out to start a 3D printing business in my parents house (Free rent!!)
My company/brand is @Michaeltaylordesigns and you can find out more on instagram, facebook, and now steemit! I operate and manage an Etsy store where I sell, fidget spinners. At first they were pretty cool because they were promoting 3D printing but eventually they became so gimmicky that they began to promote the idea that 3D printers can only make bullshit novelty desk toys. So now I'm at the point where I can't stand the freaking things, but I still need money to support myself. Where there is demand, I will supply... However, with the power of steemit, hopefully I can stop catering to the popular market trends, and eventually I'll be able to show the true capabilities of 3D printing without boundaries! (Seriously, these things are amazing, they're like infinite legos..)
To wrap up, I just wanted to let everyone know that I plan to use Steemit as the PRIMARY platform for which I use to post original content. I plan to become very vested in this site, and Im really excited to see where it grows! POWER UP!
Just to give you some context, here are a few of the projects Im working on
Fidget Spinners
Custom Fidget Spinners
Swiss Army Knife of Phone Cases (Work in Progress)
Indeed these are entirely 3D printed.. Even the metal parts!
Random stuff
Here are a few of my interests!

Welcome Brian Michael Taylor! I've always been interested in 3D printing but never quite had the courage to get started, mainly because my background is in music and I know nothing about product design. Your creations look awesome and make me realise how much fun you must have creating them (even if you do get sick of them eventually) I'm going to follow you and hope to see more great 3D printed items
Hey man, thanks for the kind words. 3D printing is remarkably simple now a days so hopefully I can give you some insight to what it's like. Also whats your music background in? Haha yes, I love creating, even fidget spinners, I just think the capabilities of 3D printers are far greater! Thanks for the support
I studied music at university and started making ringtones for iPhone in the second year. I never expected anything from it but to date I've sold 600,000. I also have a recording project with a friend called "Ninth Paradise" and some backing tracks channels on youtube, my biggest is https://www.youtube.com/c/drumlessbackingtracks
Welcome aboard, Michael - awesome printing enterprise you've got there!
Thanks! Really appreciate it!

Hi, Brian! Welcome to the Steemit community! It's so amazing to hear about you starting your own 3D printing business. What they can do with 3D printing is incredible these days, and it's definitely something that is interesting and can even change the world. What made you decide that 3D printing was something you really enjoyed learning about?
Wow! I can't wrap my head around how 3d printing works. But this looks awesome! And that's great that you've started your own business. I know it can be tough. (I just started my own business this past year.) So all the power to ya ;)
Haha Ill be sure to post some videos about how it works later this month! Also very cool, what kind of business?
Dog breeding :)
Really? I would have assumed something with baking haha. What kind of dogs?
Welcome to Steemit Brian and great into post!!
You will definitely enjoy it here.
I'm assuming your fidget spinners will be far far better than the cheap ones I've got from China with you being a mechanical engineer :) If so, would you sell one? :D
Welcome to the community.
Hey @adamm, thanks for the warm welcome! Haha I like to think so, but you can be the judge of that. Yea definitely! I'm updating my Etsy tonight so maybe check back tmrw and I'll direct you to where you need to go
Hi Michael

You definitely should. It's incredibly useful and theyre as cheap as $200!
Keep it funky! I wish your username was all 3 of your names, but welcome!!! Can't wait to see the type of 3D creations you make!
Dang you're right.. but now you know a secret, not a lot of people know! My first name haha. Thanks for the support, excited to share!
Welcome to Steemit Brian! My design collective has been trying out 3d printing for our STEEMIT PARK project and it would be great to get some of your feedback.
Hey @hansikhouse I checked it out and I'm following @hitheryon! Looks like a really cool project and I'm excited to see how it turns out, best of luck!
