Before launching new items, the prototyping phase during the design process uses 3D software and 3D printing service. It is vital to create its sample product and test the core functionality of its appearance and physical parts in a real-world environment. Learn more about prototyping and its importance to engineers and product designers through this… The post Prototyping – Its […]

Rapid prototyping in the UK is perhaps one of the biggest emerging trends right now in the manufacturing and prototyping industry. It is a process that allows manufacturing businesses to present any new concepts and ideas that they have to clients and investors at the soonest possible time. They can even test and rework the… The post How Rapid Prototyping […]

There are several methods when it comes to manufacturing. If you’ve been using the same one for quite some time and are looking to switch things up, you’re not alone. A key way includes going into 3D printing services. Additive manufacturing is a great route to take in that sense. It entails having a rather… The post The Multiple Benefits […]

3D printing service has become popular in different industries, from medicine to robotics and even housing industries, among others. One of the biggest sub-cultures that started from 3D printing is probably for the creation of garage kits. A garage kit is a scale assembly model that is made in the shape of popular characters, often… The post 3D Printing’s Role […]

Living in today’s modern world, you can’t help but look back at simpler times when technology didn’t provide the same innovative solutions now compared to the past. However, if most people were to choose between living back then or now, a significant portion is likely to settle for the latter. The convenience that cutting-edge technology… The post A Guide to […]

There are countless opportunities for industries to improve their design engineering and manufacturing applications using 3D printing services. Now is the best time to start exploring the possibilities that these quick 3D prints can offer you, and there is a lot to learn! This post will provide you with seven pro tips to help improve… The post 7 Pro Tips […]

Anyone with a 3D printer will no doubt be familiar with Thingiverse, an online database of files that can be searched, downloaded and 3D printed; a universe of things. I’ve been using it for 7 years, and you can find many of my projects from this blog available there. While the platform isn’t without its issues, particularly over the last […]

3D printing is a slooooow process. While 3D printing geeks like me can spend hours watching a printer lay down layers of plastic, it often turns manufacturers off who are used to rapid manufacturing process like injection moulding where parts can be pumped out every few seconds. However, there is a way to produce products en masse and it’s called […]

My desk is covered with 3D prints, some of them my own designs, and others are just cool examples of what can be done with a home 3D printer. This is one of those examples. Stian Ervik Wahlvaag (@agepbiz) has created a clever range of 3D printed vehicles known as “Tiny Surprise Eggs” – why? Well, because they fit within […]

It’s official – my entire house now uses 3D printed light covers! If you follow this blog you may have seen some of my previous indoor light covers, featuring a 3D scanned sea urchin shell and a pineapple. Of course, I couldn’t stop with indoor lights, especially since the outdoor wall-mounted lights on my house looked like the cheapest fittings […]

The first 3D printed school has been inaugurated in Malawi, thanks to 14Trees, a joint venture between LafargeHolcim and the CDC Group, and a BOD2 3D printer from COBOD. The news follows the use of COBOD machines to produce the first 3D printed one-, two-, and three-story buildings in Europe. According to UNICEF, Malawi lacks some 36,000 classrooms, which 14Trees […]

When a budget 3D printer appears in the house, the question immediately arises, ‘What to 3D print?’ But, of course, we know the answer to this question. And we have already prepared a super selection of STL files for you with the best models to 3D print in 2021. Explore the cool things to 3D print for gamers and comic […]
