OctoRemote is an Arduino compatible keyboard to control OctoPrint enabled 3D printers or to be used as customizable input device. OctoRemote, which is currently in the crowdfunding stage on Kickstarter, is a configurable 19-key remote. It uses the same ATmega32U4 that’s used in some Arduinos, so it can be reprogrammed with the Arduino IDE to…
Designed for enthusiasts, Crane Quad is the industry’s first multi-material desktop 3D printer that can produce true multi-colored objects. It promises 50,000 colors, a build volume of 214 x 214 x 230mm, and a full-color palette. Building on M3D’s legacy of innovation in creating affordable and easy-to-use technology products that inspire consumers to make and…
It is no longer a problem, nor it is expensive, to print big size items and terrain models: we showed you that by means of our new creation, the FDM 3D printer that our well-equipped readers will be able to create, thanks to the assembly kit. The machine is capable of manufacturing solid prints…
“Tool-changing is an internal passion project here at E3D, but we’re not sure whether there is demand for a machine which is just the motion system and tool-changer. Please help us figure out whether to start building and selling this thing by filling in this survey so we can figure out what you, our customers, might want…
FoxTail has recently released via Thingiverse website the 3D printing files of its Sega Dreamcast Pi Case, allowing anyone with access to a 3D printer to replicate the case to protect their own Raspberry Pi SBC.

[bctt tweet=”New FDM (Fused deposition modeling) 3D printer capable to produce 40x40x40 cm (64,000 cm3) objects.” username=”OpenElectronics”] This printer has a building volume of 400 x 400 x 400 mm; it integrates all the functions of the 3Drag, including the “hackability”, that is typical of the Arduino-based controller. When we created our…
In the summer of 2017 Prusa moved to a new building searching for more room. In this new place they finally have enough space for a proper 3D Print Farm: they have a total of 300 3D printers at the moment, but the planned capacity is 500 by this summer. The printer composition is a mix of Original Prusa…
On Designnews.com you can find an interesting post about the potential near future of 3D Printing. Let’s see together an extract from the original post. “For years, even 10 to 20 years ago, we’ve talked about a 3D printer on every engineer’s desk. But it’s becoming more and more reality. When [desktop 3D printers] started…
Taken from the original post on 3DPrint.com. “How many 3D printers could a 3D printer 3D print if a 3D printer could 3D print 3D printers?” Colorado-based Aleph Objects brought nine LulzBot 3D printers and four techs to Las Vegas, crafting new LulzBot Mini components and assembling new 3D printers in a show floor factory…
OctoPrint is an open source software created and maintained by Gina Häußge. It offers a web interface so users can control and monitor their 3D printers from anywhere, any time, from within their browser. It basically turns old computers, and even small ARM boards like the Raspberry Pi, into network-accessible 3D printer control panels, and…
A small portable 3D printer and multitool engraving system has been launched via Kickstarter this week which offers a unique battery-powered fabrication machine that is biodegradable and uses open source firmware and software. “Poly is a multitool 3D printer that uses open source firmware and software, made in PHA, a totally ecological and compostable material….
If you’ve ever dreamed of becoming a multi armed cyborg, then a new firm could have the perfect product for you. Youbionic claims the bizarre contraption can give you ‘extraordinary abilities.’ Controlled by moving your fingers, it can open and close, and its makers say it will let you easily grip objects. “This is the…
