Usually 3D printers that use resin and stereolithography apparatus technology (SLA) allow more detailed, yet faster prints, but storing and keeping the liquid resin is a bit more challenging than simply handling filament (FDM 3d printer). Differently from a filament printer, a 3cm height object is printable in one hour. Alfawise recently released its W10 SLA 3D…
MORE Technologies launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise US$20,000 for development of its open source robot ecosystem.

Peeqo is delivered as a kit for makers to…
Few days ago tomshardware.com has published an interesting interview to Raspberry Pi CEO Eben Upton about the fascinating story behind the most famous SBC for makers. In this post Eben Upton has revealed 10 things you may not have known about Raspberry Pi, so let me shortly summarise what he told to tomshardware: Raspberry Pi…
If you wear a self-winding watch, I’m sure you’re aware that watch winders are generally very expensive, or cheap and noisy. So Kristopher Marciniak decided to hack an inexpensive winder replacing the stock motor with a stepper, and using an Arduino along with a Trinamic SilentStepStick driver for silent and well-controlled movement. “What I really…
The engineers and development team at Hexbot developed a robotic arm that could be versatile and affordable while keeping an entry-level feel so that anyone might want to try it. It is capable of 3D printing, drawing, laser engraving, pick and placing and more. Currently, on Kickstarter, the Hexbot turns any desktop into a workshop….
