Incredibly cool project. I love the exciting question it raises: “If there were a platform for using your hands to build three-dimensional computer models, what might it look like?” Cubecube – an open-source hardware project – is a tangible, tactile interface for CAD (computer-aided design.) As open source design platforms continue to emerge, there is…
Do you follow the work at 3DHubs? You should. This amazing dutch born startup is building a worldwide, peer to peer network of affiliated 3Dprinter owners that can help you print wherever your are. Since few weeks, our beloved 3Drag printer is shipping equipped with a flyer that will remind owners to register on 3D…
3D Hubs released the May 3D printing trend report! Still our 3Drag/K8200 is underestimated since we started only now to ship it with the 3DHubs embedded flyers: if you are an owner of our printer you should register on 3dHubs: We’ve just released our May 2014 3D printing trend report. With over 4500 printers on our platform, our report…
Super cool development thanks to Disney Research: 3d printing soft fibers: This paper considers the design, construction, and example use of a new type of 3D printer which fabricates three-dimensional objects from soft fibers (wool and wool blend yarn). This printer allows the substantial advantages of additive manufacturing techniques (including rapid turn-around prototyping of physical…
A really amazing project we noticed on instructables: so interesting for people dealing with photography and … hacking! See: Ultralight, 3D Printed, 3-Axis, Modular Time-Lapse Motion Control System.
Besides being a friend of Open Electronics, Sergio Subrizi is one of the few in the world who have had the experience of building the MechMate: a DIY, Open Source CNC Router. Judging from the beautiful machine that Sergio was able to build, his experience will be useful to all those who venture into this…
This super cool multifunctional – open source – delta robot just launched on Indiegogo. The cool thing is that by using magnetic based attachments, ZeGo can quickly and easily be turned into a 3D printer, engraver, entry level pick and place machine, and much more! The ZeGo bot is multifunction delta robot. And it is one…
Just another Open Source 3d printer debuts on kickstarter. This time the selling point should be the readiness to integrate next generation boards: Dual ARM design AMAKER is designed from scratch to include next generation controller boards. Just as humans have a left and right brain, we designed our controller to mirror two sides of the…
Unfortunately this campaign is likely not going to meet its challenge but nevertheless is a clever product that may spark some ideas: You probably know, that you can build a simple projector from nothing but a light, a simple transparency and a camera lens. All you need is the right connector, and GuerillaBeam is just…
After setting the bar on Sharing Economy, the Korean government also wants to be the best in nurturing SME innovation thanks to 3D printing: The government yesterday announced its plan to nurture the local 3-D printing industry and has will supply printers for small and midsize companies to use for free. For its project, the Industry…
super cool ideas from Milan designers: 3d printed connectors for furniture! In Milan, Studio Minale-Maeda presented Keystones, a 3D printed connector that holds together various components of a piece of furniture so that it can be assembled with minimal tools. From tables to coatracks, it can be printed at home so that only the essential parts…
Another bold news about project ara: 3D Systems is announcing that will print modules embedding circuitry. One word: exciting. 3D Systems will manufacture the plastic parts, including the circuitry inside, President and CEO Avi Reichental said during a keynote Thursday at the Inside 3D Printing conference in New York. The company will also be able…
