A SHORT HISTORY OF FOOD 3D PRINTING
2. THE CANDYFAB (2006-2009)
This was a "hobby project" of Windell Oskay and Lenore Edman of Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories that back in the day when that was...

It's like microwaves - brilliant gadgets, as long as you never use any of the built in programs :-)
Learn the machines capabilities and then use it properly :-)

Wow! Thank you, great info you...

So, the Powerspec offers no support whatsoever? What about warranty? Flashforge's 3 mo. sounds pretty short as it is. I was kind of getting ready to pull the trigger on a Creator Pro (most likely)...

Very interesting. It is amazing to see how metal Additive Manufacture is not just being used for the very big (aircraft parts, etc.) but also for the nano scale. I wonder if the researchers used a...

It's gingerbread house time; check out this food (analog :)) 3D printing project that uses a regular glue gun and chocolate morsels plus some ingenuity and skill to give making this traditial craft...

For folks in that region of the world and for anyone interested it was announced that a short course at Wageningen University in the Netherlands called "Food Customisation by means of 3D Printing...

Another great little book is "Leo the Maker Prince" by Carla Diana which is the first children's book on 3D Printing. It is very well written and illustrated and I can tell you from experience it...

I am in the same situation as SQUADUS where I want to balance a comprehensive understanding of the area with the practical experience. For anyone interested in the history and wider implications of...

Great insight ssayer, thanks for sharing! I am surprised the DaVinci is not just a better option (also their Amazon reviews are ok but not stellar) since it is made by one of the main manufacturers...

What is the warranty on this unit? It's great that it has 24/7 support but I think it's only 90 days for Flashforge printers whereas it is 1 year for the DaVinci. I know this is rebranded as Dremel...

This paste extruding digital fabricator was created at Cornell's Create Machines Lab under the leadership of tremendous 3D Printing advocate...

A SHORT HISTORY OF FOOD 3D PRINTING
INTRODUCTION.
With the accelerating pace of development in the area within the last couple of years, now is a good time to start creating a "history of food 3D...

Meal preparation time would depend on the meal's complexity and size but I am sure the timescale would be in the realm of a sit-down meal as opposed to that of fast food. Also, this is considering...

What an interesting discussion. It shows that smart people are involved in these early 3DP days. You make me wonder: how would a wider adoption of 3D Printing aleviate or help prevevent situatios...

As a Food Scientist (seriously) thank you PhDetroit for the vote of confidence. :D I know the NaturalMachines folks and I can tell you they will make this work; I would very much like to attend this...

Thanks Andrew you definitely raised some good points. It has been a few months now and it has been very interesting to follow the many developments in this niche-within-a-niche that is Food 3D...

In 10 years 3D printers will be pretty common in all types of professional settings and also some homes. The continued increase in computer processing power will allow their regular use beyond...

I like very much the simple website design which helps convey the solid value proposition and features. I especially liked the 3D printed jet engine video. That would be a nice sample to have.

The site looks very well stocked with something for everyone. My favorite is the Rotobot; this is a very smart project that shows again that intersection between food and 3D Printing is one of the...

I would like to have a Red Squadron (Star Wars) pilot with my face as a very unique and fun display/collection item.

I am still in the "honeymoon" stage and I just want to play and have fun with random projects (if at all possible related to food and/or bioprinting) and this process itself is very useful and...

Mostly ABS and some PLA 1.75mm, so far in basic colors. I have tried NinjaFlex as well.

Customized wine stoppers that feature my chosen character, personality or family member.

The carbon fiber reinforced one could be used for high quality automotive replacement parts like black trims and bumpers.

Multiple print materials, prosumer price range, warranty, balance between ease of use and open-ness.
