Some weeks ago we launched our contest to see what you can do with a 3Drag printer and some results to achieve. With this post, we are showcasing you some cool stuff made by 3Drag fans: you can already find much hacks and mods for this 3D printer across the Internet, and some of these…
Incredible hack! here’s the full instructable: http://www.instructables.com/id/3D-PRINTER-X-TATTOO-MACHINE/ In october 2013, a famous design school in Paris, ENSCI les Ateliers, hosted a workshop organised by the French Ministry of culture. The idea was to use images, videos and sound fallen in the national pubic domain and use them in a sort of “Mashup”. The event was called…
Trying to figure out what kind of cool stuff you can create with a 3D printer it’s not always easy if you just look to a magazine talking about it or hosting an advertising page: to fully understand what a 3D printer can do for you, you need to start printing. No coincidence that those…
The team behing Robohand created this very rugged and strong 3D printer called Robobeast … just to leave no doubts behind 🙂 Apparently this can print while being kicked 🙂 The Mark of the Beast in 3D Printing Technology With the advances in technology moving so quickly, when Rich had the idea to create a…
Ok, we saw a lot of applications of 3Dprinting but nothing it was so strange: British scientists have come up with an innovative way of 3D printing the unusual food, which is made from insect ‘flour’, which they say could help feed the world in the future. And well, you know: that makes a lot…
Incredibly cool Laser-Sintered Wearable Art grabs the spots at a 3D Printshow in Paris. Seeing the incredible complexity of this piece of Art is great to understand how 3D printing can revolutionise several industries (fashion included). Democratization of Laser sintering and Open Source can be a decisive factor! See http://www.dexigner.com/news/27277 Chicago-based artist and longtime proponent…
This project is out since a couple of years but the development goes forward. That’s an interesting highlight of what you can really do with 3D printing (and creativity). “In order to explore the current limits of 3D printing technology, I’ve created a technique for converting digital audio files into 3D-printable, 33rpm records and printed…
With a bit of a Artisanal approach you can sometimes get a solution that is closer than you think to using advanced materials. This instructables is truly amazing: 3D printed ABS objects can be transformed using some basic materials to look like various realistic surfaces. This cup and base were first printed in blue ABS…
The success of Digital Fabrication techniques The centre will be hosted at ETH Zurich, which will contribute an additional CHF15 million as the lead institution; EPFL, EMPA, and the Bern University of Applied Sciences will also partner on the project. Encompassing the disciplines of architecture, computational design, electrical and mechanical engineering, material sciences, and robotics, the investment is…
Super cool project, all documented and open source! Based on the idea of use standard RepRap 3D printer parts : NEMA17 stepper motors, drivers, Arduino Mega, RAMPS, belts , bearings, rods, printed pieces … I started to develop the project. The main advantage of use these parts is that they are cheap and easily available….
As you may probably figure out we recently attended CES in Las Vegas as basically everyone working In this industry. Wandering around the different booths and shows is always interesting, CES remains probably the best consumer electronics show for the industry and everyone is basically there. This year, during the Leaders in Technology Dinner event,…
