Today we got to spend some more time following up with Braydon Moreno, the CEO and co-founder of Robo 3D. I’m excited we got to follow up with him because they had done some terrific things. They were our top pick for CES’s 3D printing section. They have so many things going on between their Robo 3D kits and new printers coming out and their programs with education. But we were rushed at CES. We got a lot of his time at CES for what most people got. But still, so much to talk about, and we … [Read more...]
Are We Scaring People Away From 3D Printing?
This is an Ask Us Anything that came from Twitter - they think we’re scaring people away from 3D printing. It’s a fair criticism. We want to hear from you, no matter what you think. Our talking about 3D printing and how difficult it can be to learn it and do what you want is not to scare people off, but really to have realistic expectations. I think the ultimate goal is to make sure that you don’t go in there with the mindset that it will be so easy, and then you give up because it was harder … [Read more...]
Can You Capture Other Parts in Your 3D Prints?
Today’s topic comes from someone we talked to recently who asked us a question: Is it possible to make a 3D print where you print part of it and put some other object of a different material into the middle of your print and keep printing over it? So you encapsulate it or capture other parts in your 3D print. That’s a really good question. It brings up a lot of points of whether or not that part could be damaged or how it fits in there or if you’re going to hurt your 3D printer if … [Read more...]
Is Anyone Actually Selling 3D Printed Products?
One particular long-time listener of this podcast has probably asked us more challenging questions than anybody else. That’s Eduardo Martini out of Brazil. Thank you so much. Today, we are going to have a discussion about this question that he wrote in most recently. We tried to find some answers, and it’s not easy. The question is: Is anybody selling anything in 3D printing? Not just giving it away, but selling. Listen to the podcast here: Is Anybody Actually Selling 3D Printed … [Read more...]
Educational Project – Digital Sundial
In this WTFFF?! Episode, Tom and Tracy have found a great educational project for teachers and students. There is a lot of potential here for creating it into a larger lesson plan about time, geography, and of course 3D printing and 3D design. What they are talking about is creating a digital sundial, a little ironic considering sundials are analog by nature. Mojoptix, the designer, has great videos to walk students through the creation of this free file. Listen to the … [Read more...]
Jurassic 3D Printers Built to Last Until the Next Ice Age with Clay Guillory of Titan 3D
Today, we have an interview with Clay Guillory of Titan 3D. And that is a big printer; there is a reason they call it Titan. It’s not even just big; it’s built, too. That thing is like a tank. We were really impressed with it when we saw it at CES. I started talking to Clay while we were waiting around, and they are in Colorado Springs. They are in our sister’s backyard. I was thinking we had to get up there. It always amazes me where different 3D printing companies are based. It … [Read more...]
