If you’d like to do it, I think that the EggBot is perfect for you! The EggBot is a compact, easy to use open-source art robot that can draw on spherical or egg-shaped objects. Not just eggs but golf balls, light bulbs, mini pumpkins, and even things like wine glasses — with a bit of…
Assuming that time is linear, Jonathan Odom has decided to create a clock illustrating time’s linearity. He built a beautifully crafted clock that uses two rack and pinion assemblies to move a line of numbers for hours on top of another line signifying minutes. He made it using every machine at Pier9 workshop (3D printer,…
Christopher Tan, a video game fan based in Malaysia, used his 3d Printer to make a desktop arcade machine. “I grew up in the 80s, probably the glory days of arcade gaming, so I always wished I had an arcade machine of my own with real arcade joystick and buttons,” he wrote. “Over a few weeks,…
Pete Prodoehl needed a way to test microswitches that he’d be using for an exhibit, so he decided to build his own setup with a counter, 3D-printed “pusher” and an Arduino Uno. When you’re testing the life span of a component made to work over and over, your testing components have to also be robust…
The Zero Terminal is made using the new Raspberry Pi Zero W, some 3D printed parts, and an iPhone 5 slider keyboard. By using the sliding keyboard, one doesn’t need to build your own hinges/sliders. This also provides a great finished product. It features a 3.5-inch screen, offers a remarkable portability and functionality. Here are…
The Michigan Tech associate professor Joshua Pearce, According to a study at Michigan Technological University, says that the average consumer can also make up to 1000% return of investment with a 3D printer by using it to print household goods instead of buying them outright.
