3D Racers is a fully customizable racing game with mobile app and Open Hardware from italy.For those not familiar with 3D Printing, 3D Hubs is partnering with the project to provide a 3D service included (which says a lot of the future of 3DHubs as as service also). The project looks really awesome and –…
The 2015 edition of the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada, has been the largest and most amazing exhibition in the history of CES so far, according to Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) that is the owner and showrunner of this fair. The venue stretched over more than 2.2 million net square feet of exhibit…
Another interesting printer is on kickstarter with a clever mechanism for expanding the bed size: The Thingystock is completely upgradeable by the user. The frame is made in 3 parts and, by simply adding additional pieces, can be expanded to support larger bed sizes. The rods can be replaced with taller ones, the arms can be…
3d hubs just released its 3D printing trends report. Apparently, among 3d hubs users, open source 3d printers rule! (a lot more interesting info in the report) 3D Printing Trends January 2015 | 3D Hubs.
My impression is that this Autodesk strategic project potential just went a little underestimated: Autodesk is developing Project Wire, a Spark Powered design tool for creating 3D printable electronic devices. We have partnered with Voxel8 to enable the fabrication of truly freeform three-dimensional circuits for the first time. We believe future electronic devices will be…
After two years since the first 3Doodler was successfully funded on Kickstarter.com, the team is now kickstarting a new extruder. The 3Doodler 2.0 has a lighter design and a new and improved filament drive system for smoother extrusions. The expectations on the product are high are, as of today, with many days still available, the campaign raised more than…
At CES in Las Vegas, European open source 3D Printer producer Ultimaker announced two variations of the award winning Ultimaker 2: the Ultimaker 2 Go and Ultimaker 2 Extended. We’re looking forward to see how the design files and BOM will be made available to the community! …Ultimaker 2 Go and Ultimaker 2 Extended, two cutting-edge…
A beautiful infographic by custom made (which is an awesome marketplace for connecting makers to people and get one-of-a-kind local products) shows the pro’s and con’s of 3Dprinting. Despite you may have different ideas, that’s every nice and ell crafted and can also serve to explain the different manufacturing techniques related to 3dpriting! Access the…
Interesting infographics from Line//Shape//Space explains how in house 3dprinting is already competitive! And they didn’t even take into account that open source efficient 3dprinters ship for even less than 2000 $ (look at ours) There are still some hurdles to clear, such as cost of materials, speed, and print quality, which you can read more…
As you may know, making 3D prints electronically functional is complex and requires a separate manufacturing process to add circuit boards, wiring, and electronic components. To answer this key problem, Functionalize is now carrying on a kickstarter campaign for a conductive 3dprinter filament that is showing a huge potential to revolutionize personal manufacturing: LED Flashlight Printed with…
Very nice news from the Diatom Studios: a lot of new details is available Piccolo, a pocket sized open source CNC-bot that you can create by using laser-cutting and off-the-shelf hardware and Arduino. The small robot from Diatom Studios called the Piccolo was the inspiration for my own TinyCNC. The Piccolo was first announced in February of…
