3D printing presents a fantastic tool for making speakers. If you’ve looked at how modern speakers are made you’ll find that there is all kinds of complex internal geometry that can lead to better sound. As DIY Perks points out, this makes 3D printing the best tool for the job. Unfortunately, the material of plastic […]
I’ve been seeing these little kits floating around and thought that some of you might find them interesting as well. Especially those of you who love Lego. These are called PrintABlock and they’re a clever little toy you can print at home. Designed by the 3D Printing Professor, they are intended to give an experience […]
3D printing is always surprising us with new and inventive ways of using the somewhat simple machines. In this case, there is a new software called HueForge that creates beautifully rendered 2D art work using very limited colors and materials allowed by 3D printing. To understand what HueForge is and why it is so neat, […]
For the past couple of years, I have had plenty of people ask me when Maker Faire was coming back. For example, Adam Trinklein wrote me recently: I’m a 17 year old high school student. Ever since I was little I remember going to the Maker Faire in San Mateo. I remember being thrilled by […]
What is a Dopp Kit bag? That’s what I first wondered when I saw this project, and I’ll happily explain the etymology in the end of this article. First, however, we should look at this fantastic project that Becky Stern has shared with us. This kit is a great project to take on if you’ve […]
Shaper reached out to us to test out their new “shaper trace” tool. The idea behind this tool is to be able to capture vector drawings quickly, easily, and with dimensional accuracy. This task is something that is often a difficult thing to achieve when it comes to working with lasers or cnc machines. You […]
When you’ve been using a 3D Printer for a little while, you start to really get curious about printing things that aren’t just your standard hard plastic. There are many options out there, but one I find particularly fascinating are flexible or soft filaments. TPU is typically what you hear about and the softness is […]
