Drew Taylor and Astroprint are helping the 3D printing industry step forward to help people see the wide range the technology can offer. This time through an app called Toy Maker that lets parents 3D print toys with their kids. This is a lovely way to spend time with the the family, but Drew Taylor of AstroPrint also aims for Toy Maker to be a reference app for other 3D print designers to use. The APIs used for the app have an obvious use that AstroPrint saw to help others in the industry. Toy … [Read more...]

It’s FFF, Only Metal: 3D Metal Machines with Melanie Lang of FormAlloy
Fused filament fabrication has found its genius little sister in the form of laser metal deposition. The process builds parts layer after layer using the heat of an integrated blue laser. This allows Melanie Lang and FormAlloy to use a shorter wavelength than IR lasers which then allows for a wider range of material processing. Their blow powder system and modular powder feeders allows them to use different materials on the fly. With this technology that was inspired by aerospace … [Read more...]
Design Challenge Accepted: 3D Printed Mens Shoes with Philippe Holthuizen from FUSED Footwear
For some people, seven months of product design is barely enough time to build a single feature. But Dutch product designer Philippe Holthuizen managed to disrupt the footwear industry with his 3D printed mens shoes in that time frame. Phillippe was able to achieve a lot in design and development from styles to texture using his 3D CAD skills and background in shoe designing. But his bottom line goal is pretty much the same as other 3D print product designers; to become part of the … [Read more...]

3D Print Education Made Simple: Revolutionizing STEM Classrooms with Brian Bobbitt
Having a physical model to hold in your hands is powerful to a student learning engineering and design. But when Brian Bobbitt started integrating 3D print education to the curriculum, there weren’t many resources. With the help of Project Lead The Way, exposure to design and production got easier. Getting a foundational education in CAD at the high school level translated to better skilled transitioning college students later. Brian Bobbit shares how educating the students early can cast away … [Read more...]
