๐Ÿคซthis is who we are๐Ÿคซ

โ„น๏ธ where do we come from?
Initially we came from the 155mm NATO Channel. This is where we started back in May 2024 and we are very thankful for the support we got as we started this project. The initial posting can be found here. You can still search the channel for โ€žxyzโ€œ to get all the information you need.

โ„น๏ธ why a sub channel?
Sometimes it was hard to find the needed information for this topic. Now it is in one channel. You can take it as a folder on your PC to have topics separated. This gives you a better overview and you can find information more quickly.

โ„น๏ธ When did this channel start?
The first appearance of our channel was in the end of November by this post of 155mm NATO Channel here. This is where our new channel was setting up.
However, the proper introduction was done some days later in the beginning of December. You can find the introduction of this new channel here.

โ„น๏ธItโ€™s not all about printingโ„น๏ธ

๐Ÿ“ŒSurly, printing is a huge part. However, making parts like our bottles requires a lot of side business as well.

1๏ธโƒฃordering material
Printers do not run without material. You have to search the internet for the best deals around. Sometimes itโ€™s Amazon, sometimes Aliexpress, Temu or direct orders. With every order we buy at least 30-50kg of material. Depending on how many donations we get per week.

2๏ธโƒฃ loading and monitoring
Yes, the printers can print for 12 or more hours without human intervention. But what happens when they run out of material? Then a new filament spool has to be inserted. What if something unusual happens? Then quick action is required. For this reason, you cannot operate the printers without monitoring them.

3๏ธโƒฃ maintenance
This is a big one. Maintenance is one of the most important parts of this factory. The printers are printing nearly 24/7 and the wear is huge! You can take a closer look at the one picture shared above. These are the gears of the extruder after 3000h of printing and must be replaced. Otherwise the possibility of a catastrophic failure is increasing.

4๏ธโƒฃ transportation and logistics
After printing our items, they must be packed in boxes and go on the journey to Ukraine. Due to security reasons, nobody knows the exact route they take. It goes through several trustful hands until they got delivered. All we can say is that each box is traveling by train, bus and car. This also must be covered by donations.

5๏ธโƒฃ preparing
After arriving in Ukraine, each bottle must be prepared. You can find a very good video in this post right here.

6๏ธโƒฃAction!
After this long journey, they finally do what they can do best: ๐Ÿ’ฅ

๐Ÿ”ป We got many many donations this year and we would like to give a special thank you to our top 10 donors (total donations per donor for this year).

๐Ÿฅ‡ 4.579,12 โ‚ฌ

โ„น๏ธUpdatesโ„น๏ธ

๐Ÿ”ปitโ€™s not all about bottles. Our focus extends beyond them. Itโ€™s also making sure each drone works flawless. To achieve that, we also print parts specially made for them so that they can fly in every condition.

๐Ÿ”ปThousands of these parts are needed. The factory in Ukraine is not able to print them in numbers they need. So they asked us to do the job for them.

๐Ÿ”ป Currently, we print approximately 100 pieces per day, which is sufficient to meet their daily demand of approximately 75 pieces. This allows us to exceed their requirements and enables them to redirect their limited energy to their most pressing needs.

๐ŸŽ„Happy Christmas๐ŸŽ„

โ„น๏ธ The intention of Christmas nowadays is love, giving, kindness, family, and community. It should be a moment for togetherness, gratitude, and hope that transcends faith, focusing on compassion, connection, and shared joy, even while navigating consumerism and social media pressures.

๐Ÿ”ป Today, however, we must also think of our soldiers in the trenches and ruins. Of the civilians who have to cope without electricity and water and celebrate Christmas by candlelight, wrapped up in thick jackets. A Christmas filled with fear of the dangers that come down from the sky.

๐Ÿ”ป Regardless of whether you are religious, whether you are Christian, Jewish, Muslim, or belong to another religion, we should all pause for a moment and think of the people in Ukraine.

๐Ÿ”ป We all long for peace. We long for an end to killing and destruction, and for peoples to be respected once again. We long for national borders to be respected and for us to treat each other fairly and respectfully once more.

๐Ÿ”ป We will fight for peace for as long as necessary. None of us wants war. None of us wants to kill. None of us wants to produce weapons of war. Unfortunately, however, we are being forced to do just that, and we will not stop until Ukraine and its people are respected again and the illegal invasion ends!

๐Ÿ™ for all donors and for the donations we got on Christmas Eve. We all hope that you had a wonderful day. Thank you so much! ๐Ÿ™

โ„น๏ธOur Equipmentโ„น๏ธ

๐Ÿ”ป recently, there was a question about what we use to produce parts for Ukraine. Wellโ€ฆ we use 3D printers.

Which brand do you useโ“

๐Ÿ‘‰We use a brand which is available on the free market. You can buy it in nearly every online store or sometimes also in your workshop or super market.

Which kind of printer you use
โ“

๐Ÿ‘‰As already said, itโ€™s a filament printer. It uses filament which is enrolled and sold in packs with a weight of 1kg per roll.

Can you tell me exact brand and model
โ“

๐Ÿ‘‰Wellโ€ฆ. No we wonโ€™t tell our exact equipment.

Why
โ“

๐Ÿ‘‰First of all it really doesnโ€™t matter. As long as the printers are printing, it doesnโ€™t matter which brand or model you use. It must print fast and with a good quality. Thatโ€™s it.
Secondly, It is our production secret. It is also a security issue, so we will not disclose any details.
However, you can still support us. We guarantee that your money will be spent exclusively on supporting the Ukrainians. That is our main goal and our motivation. To provide the Ukrainian troops with the best possible supply of 3D-printed components so that they can eliminate the Russian invaders.

โ„น๏ธ Our heavy friend got delivered โ„น๏ธ

๐Ÿ”ป We recently informed you that we had printed 85 gifts weighing 1.5 kg each for Ukraine. The attached video shows confirmation of this delivery.

๐Ÿ”ป This technical product consists of seven individual parts, with the inner part intended for the C4 and the outer container for the party. The printing time for one container is approximately seven hours, which is not really feasible to produce there due to power outages in Ukraine.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ With this video confirmation, you can see directly how your donation is being converted into useful items to stop the invasion.

๐Ÿคซ Our main goal for 2026 is to ramp up our new decentralized production of a newly developed heavy bottle. This production requires 5 different locations for printing. All packages are then transported to the factory in Ukraine, where the bottle is prepared for use on the front lines.

โš ๏ธ At least โ‚ฌ100 per day is required for the planned production. If we want to go full steam aheadโ€”i.e., produce at full capacityโ€”we will consume โ‚ฌ200 worth of materials every day. โš ๏ธ

๐Ÿ†˜ Please share our idea with friends, other people you chat with, and talk about it with others at demonstrations so that we can really increase our production.

Hello to all of you wonderful supporters of the 3rd Printing Platoon!!๐Ÿซกโค๏ธ

I thought that it is time to make a little survey about us,our work and how you feel about us.
I would ask you to rate us in general in a 5-star rating;


1 star: You think we are full blown scammers,you trust ruzzians more than us!
2 stars:You have donated a little couple of times,but don't think it's worth it.
3 stars:You have found our services ok but there is always something to improve.
4 stars:You have been donating regularly because you know that your money goes where it should.
5 stars: The best way to support Ukraine ever! I have not ever regretted a single cent I have donated because I like to see ruzzians burning and dying!!

These were just what came to My mind. I hope we could get the star rating and few words why that amount of stars.
Thank you!!

๐Ÿ†’A special post box!๐Ÿ‘

๐ŸฅถThe winter is cold, soldiers are exhausted and freezing. Time to send some sweets!

๐Ÿ‘ Remember when we went for some sweets last year? That was such a great idea, you can totally see the smile through his cover!

๐Ÿ†• This year, weโ€™re planning to send some chocolate to our factory members. But thatโ€™s not all! We also want to make sure the guys in the trenches that can only be reached by drones get a sweet treat too. What do you think? Imagine a drone delivering sweets to the guys, along with water and other essentials. Wouldnโ€™t that be amazing? Letโ€™s make this happen!

๐Ÿ‘ If you want to be a part of this, then please use the link to our PayPal donation page down below and type in your personal message which will be handed over to the soldiers together with the sweets:

๐Ÿ’ฅ Our products in use ๐Ÿ’ฅ

โ–ถ๏ธ We invite you to watch our spectacular video. Our bottles are not only good looking, they are also highly effective!

๐Ÿ”œ However, the production is shifting very frequently. Small bottles 6 months ago, big bottles 3 months ago. Large bombs 4 weeks ago. Special equipment today and now it has shifted a little to even bigger ones with a greater ๐Ÿ’ฅ.
This has increased the radius of effectiveness. However, this has also increased the the weight and material usage for production. Unfortunately, we canโ€™t give you exact details of what we produce at the moment. Thatโ€™s OPSEC (Operational Security).

โ„น๏ธSome statistics for the current production:

They currently use about 100-120 self-developed bottles per day. Success rate of stopping a single invader is about 25%. The larger bottle costs about 5โ‚ฌ. This means: with only 20โ‚ฌ you can stop at least 1 invader! Your money can be directly converted into man stopping action!
If we compare it to artillery shells, it costs a fraction of those!
