The 3D printer 3Drag is famous for being completely open and easily hackable.
With a simple modification with the 3Drag you can also print the materials softer and more flexible.
Just download from Thingiverse the filament guide and the extruder base. The latter has been stretched in order to avoid that the filaments can be more soft bend.
One of the most exciting frontiers is that of 3D bioprinting, which is highly anticipated and could reveal potentially game-changing biomedical technology. One of the biggest issues prohibiting 3D bioprinting technology is how to make true 3D representative biological structures? But this technology could be about to take an open-source turn, which could accelerate and…
