For decades 3D printing has been available in some form, but it wasn’t until the likes of MakerBot and other startups who began producing affordable hardware for the hobby to really take off. In the ...

Arduino 3D Printer project is a DIY 3D printer design based on an arduino board. It features RAMPS 1.4 shield and Arduino Mega 2560 that handles majority of the 3D printer components. It has an ...

[Credit: taulman on Instructables] 3D printers generally print using ABS plastic, which is great for most applications–I mean, they make Legos out of it, after all. When printing thin pieces, however, ...

You have a few choices if you want to use a probe to level your 3D printer bed. Rarely, you’ll see optical or capacitive probes. More commonly, though, your probe will sense a metal print or uses a ...

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Hasso Plattner Institute have developed a new 3D printing software that can reduce plastic use and preserve the strength of an object, ...

While most 3D glass printing methods require energy-intensive use of chemical binders, Hebrew University team develops less wasteful process that uses light ...
