Jorge Mejías, creador de su propia impresora 3D | INMTK. Por Víctor Fernández y Mar Gallardo. Palma / TECNOLOGÍA En esta ocasión entrevistamos a Jorge Mejías, programador y diseñador gráfico, para que nos hable sobre la revolución que representan las impresoras 3D. 1. Para empezar cuéntanos como fueron tus comienzos y a qué te dedicas más concretamente. Comencé en 1980 como programador aficionado, haciendo videojuegos y demos gráficas en una Videopac, una videoconsola que disponía de un editor básico de código máquina (carecía de ensamblador) en uno de los cartuchos ROM de su catálogo de juegos.
Por comentar algo de mi faceta electrónica, realicé algo tan llamativo como es un teclado USB con la forma de un Sinclair Spectrum 48K original de 1982 y que sirve para ser usado en emuladores y revivir la experiencia de jugar (o programar) como se hacía en los años 80. Jorge Mejías junto a Eduard Punset. Los gráficos 3D me han gustado desde siempre. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. No, no lo es. 8. Construir una impresora 3D open source no es difícil si tienes ayuda.
Tinkercad Blog. Free Alternatives to Tinkercad. Creators of Tinkercad announced earlier this week that they would no longer be developing the popular cloud-based CAD tool. We’re fans of Tinkercad here at MAKE, having written about and praised it on the blog and in our Ultimate Guide to 3D Printing, so this is sad news. It’s going to be replaced by new software, called Airstone, that’s meant for a completely different, professional, audience. You can read more about Airstone here. The free version of Tinkercad is still available to use between now and the end of April, and paying customers will have access until the end of 2013 (you can read more about the timeline on the Tinkercad blog).
Here are a few other free alternatives to Tinkercad, starting with what I think is the most beginner-friendly and ending with the least beginner-friendly: 3DTin An in-browser tool that started out as a simple shape editors, with specific blocks that you can duplicate and manipulate to make models.

Will 3D Printers Save the World? 3D printers have exploded in popularity with promises of reinventing everything from manufacturing to entrepreneurship. While 3D printing has a few detractors and people who point out that it won’t live up to the hype, I believe 3D printing will actually do more than reinvent the way we design and build things.
Ultimately, I believe it will dramatically improve lives in 3rd world countries by empowering everyone to improve their own lives. This is why re:3D got my attention. They are creating a large format printer designed to work in developing countries that typically lack the infrastructure we take for granted. Social entrepreneurship has long been focused on the Bottom of the Pyramid. 3D Printing Will Save Lives The small build area of most consumer grade 3D printers makes it impossible to print truly useful objects for people who lack even the most basic of amenities…like toilets or a rain bucket. Seriously? Improving the Local Economy Culture Differences Are Important Stephen Murphey.

The goal was to create tools to help designers identify and fix potential problem areas prior to 3D printing. The solution had to provide accurate and relevant data, in order to help 3D designers speed up the design and iteration cycle. Man vs Machine Take, for instance, a triangle: at the very tip, the wall thickness gradually becomes zero. Measurement Complexity Another challenge is measurement complexity. Furthermore, we see a lot of complex 3D models, designed by our community, that push the boundaries of design. Our Discovery Process The ideas of Alexandru Telea and Andrei Jalba, published in the academic paper, Voxel-Based Assessment of Printability of 3D Shapes were our starting point in developing the Wall Thickness Visualization Tool.
The simplicity of the tool is deceiving, as the algorithmic power required to run the tools against a constant stream of 3D models require up to 25 computer servers running simultaneously. Ponoko.
