OpenSL 3D Printer: A Stereolithographic printer, For Everyone. What is sLAMPS? sLAMPS is an open design for a 3d SL (Stereo Lithography) resin printer. I've been working on it for the last few months and have gotten it to the point where it is ready to print -- once I get a good supply of resin. How does it work? The printer works using a galvanometer and mirrors to steer a laser into a cured vat of resin. Why do I need funding? I'm seeking funding for two reasons: 1) To be held accountable for my design to ensure that this design makes it into your hands before people are mistaken into spending a lot of money on something that doesn't need to be that expensive. 2) To accelerate my prototype. Big purchases? Well, the funding, if received, would go towards: * Resin Development / Manufacturing / Supplier. * Laser Cutter. Why aren't you selling lots of full, assembled printers? The printer in its current state is still very much a beta. What have you done so far? * Designed and printed several interations of plastic parts for the printer * Built sLAMPS 1.0

Arte y cultura digital: Blog de los estudios de arte y cultura digital de la UOC Makerbot, Ultimaker and Cb printer: customer support comparison | A girl with a 3D printer 3d printers are fun, but you will eventually have problems and will have to write to the customer support to solve them. Maybe after months of faithful usage like it happend to our Replicator or just after unboxing and trying to assemble the creature, but sooner or later you will have to write an email and ask information or spare pieces to who sold you the machine. Sometimes it’s a nice experience, sometimes it’s awful. You already are sad/annoyed/angry because your printer isn’t working and a good user support will brighten or darken your day. So here are our experiences so far, let me know yours! Cb-printer: I’ll start easy, the error was theirs. Makerbot: after working perfectly for months on one day we heard a pop, a bad smell and the printer was dead. Great support, would love to recommend it Ultimaker: I already wrote about the problem we had in my assembly post and won’t get into details again. Based on the user support I would never recommend Ultimaker

Japicain Revolution 3D Printer: Changing the way you print by Japica Demo of how the J-Rev prints upward What is the Japicain Revolution? (AKA: J-Rev) The J-Rev is a 3-Dimensional Printing Machine. In basic terms, it can make any physical object out of a chosen material, typically plastic. Currently, there is a huge variety of 3D Printers available, ranging from $500 up to a $500,000 and up. Most FFF printers can produce good results, but have yet to reach the ability to print as good as high-end Commercial 3D Printers. A 3D Printer can produce most anything you desire, and be a useful tool in your life.

W.Afate 3D printer On dit de l’imprimante 3D qu’elle aura le même impact que la machiné à vapeur. Un jeune togolais est peut-être en train d'écrire une des pages les plus belles et pleines de promesses de cette nouvelle épopée technologique... Soyez à la source de cette éclosion. Filez un coup de pouce à l’innovation « Made in Africa ! » Ecologie. _Valoriser les e-déchets et contribuer à nettoyer les dépotoirs informatiques qui comme à Agbogbloshie au Ghana, s’étendent à l’échelle de quartiers entiers. _Mettre la technologie à la portée de petites gens et faire de l’Afrique, non pas une spectatrice, mais une actrice à part entière d’une prochaine révolution industrielle plus vertueuse. _Favoriser le détournement et la réutilisation des machines usagées pour éviter de les envoyer à la casse et ainsi génerer un nouvel apport économique aux ménages africains, aux écoles et aux cyber cafés. Le WoeLab lance un appel à soutien. Les origines de la W.AFATE. La fabrication de la W.AFATE en 10 étapes 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

FoldaRap FoldaRap2 Release status: working In my obsession dreaming of a folding RepRap, I finally started to make one, after 5-7 months of development I'm able to travel with it around the town/country/world :) (adventures pictured on flickr / youtube / ustream) And now several people have build one : FoldaRap_Hall-of-Builds, even some by sourcing themselves the parts : google-maps (the red dots) Specifications Printed Parts: 33 Non-Printed Parts: 285 (including every bolts/nuts/washers/ferules/etc.) Special Features Foldable ! Community FoldaRap 2.5 new plates arrangement for the v2.5, to ease color associations ;) FoldaRap 2.1 after several tries and suggestions with Xav83, I ended with this simple piece that hold an endstop with a zip-tie :) (for the Z-endstop, or any machine using 20x20 extrusions) FoldaRap 1.0

The shape of things to come: A consumer's guide to 3D printers CES 2013 proved to be something of a coming out party for consumer-facing 3D printers. Sure MakerBot earned a fair amount of attention at last year's show with the announcement of the Replicator, which snagged its share of awards from various press outlets. This year, however, saw a relative deluge in 3D-printing representation, with strong showings from 3D Systems, FormLabs, MakerBot and the cloud-based 3D printer, Sculpteo. Even with so many companies rising to prominence, the dream of truly mainstream 3D printing still feels a ways off -- if that is indeed where we're inevitably heading. These nascent days are an exciting time, with a diverse array of companies and organizations vying to be the first to bring the technology to our homes. Most of these work by melting plastic (largely Lego-like ABS or biodegradable PLA) and squirting it out through extruder heads. 3D Systems 3D Systems has been in the 3D-printing game since before the term was coined.
