3D prints he regrets making carry WifiEli through a week off
A month-old ranking of misfire prints is closing on 14 million views, with a fidget-toy sibling already past 20 million.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
Ranking 3D Prints I Regret Making
"Ranking 3D Prints I Regret Making" is exactly what it sounds like: a short in which Eli lines up the printed ideas that seemed good at the time and sorts them from bad to worse. It is the busiest thing on WifiEli right now, a channel whose about text promises the world's most unique things, and it is doing that job without any help from new uploads, because none went up.
The regrets are only half of a pair. A few days before it, Eli posted the happier version, "Ranking Satisfying 3D Printed Fidget Toys," which has already passed 20 million views. The regret ranking is younger and smaller in total, yet it is now drawing close to twice as many views a day as its cheerful sibling. Maybe the failures are simply more fun to watch than the successes?
Further back sits a reminder that the ranking format is not only about printers: a June short sorting the coolest and weirdest flipbooks from Eli's collection is still picking up views more than three months on.
Taken together, the channel is running a little above its usual daily pace, which is a comfortable place to be with nothing new posted. Among similar DIY and building channels, the bigger stretches belong to Eoin Reardon, close to double his normal views, and to HAUS PLANS, which is busy at a much larger scale. For WifiEli, it is two printer rankings from late summer that are keeping things moving.
