I'm not sure exactly how this is a business card, but the designer calls it that. It is a 2 dimensional flat printout that can be taken apart and then assembled into a Velociraptor. What a unique...

I saw this on Thingiverse this morning and thought it was too great not to share :) If any of your guys are planning to one day go to Mars, be sure you print this out first, or bring your 3D printer...
Still overpriced for what is out there today. Makebot needs to drastically reduce their prices IMO.
This looks very intriguing. I would definitely give this a try at $15/year.
This was an interesting infograph that 3D Systems released. Gives a good history of 3D printing....
I was one of those people that needed to wear a brace. Boy do I wish I had this as an option. Would have made my life so much easier.
Looking forward to the launch :)
Hmm, what are the benefits of this over a Printrbot simple?
I believe that Makerbot will regret the decision not to open Thingiverse up to allow people to sell their designs. Sure it's based on open source, but they have a good thing going, and are the most...
Bennyboo, I think you hit the nail right on the head. The only one you missed is speed. It needs to get a lot faster. I'm sure it will take a new innovation in order to get us there, but imagine...
This is a very interesting new robotic arm that is coming out. It's form a company called Flux Integration, and is called the FLX.ARM.S16. It is a robotic arm, and it can do many things including...
I enjoyed watching this. Nokia is using 3D printers to print chocolate for easter. I love how so many companies are innovating this way. Anyone have any clue which 3D printer is being used here?

I've heard that the Da Vinci filament cartridges basically cost twice as much as if you were to purchase the filament yourself. I hate this with a passion. I think the DaVinci printer is awesome,...
I became aware of this today.
Does anyone know if Microsoft has acquired Netfabb or if this is just a partnership? An acquisition would be a nice move by Microsoft to burst into the 3D design and...
What a smart move by this company. I bet about 30% of the people that took this free filament also bought other things from them.
These are scans. I would think it would be pretty simple to clean these scans up if you know what you are doing. One day we will have scanners that can precisely scan any object, but we aren't...
I like how it doesn't use very much power, but is it really worth the price? The printer looks pretty cool too, and the resolution isn't too bad. However, it's not really anything new. I wish that...
Axe, I don't think it's the same with 3D Printers. Parts are usually pretty replaceable. Wear and tear isn't too much of an issue either. With PC's there is a lot more you have to worry about. I...
I second 123d Design. I'm no designer myself, but actually found this software quite simple to use. Best of all, you can make more advance things as you gain more experience. It's a good learning...
I use a Replicator 2, and I just recently had to replace the extruder. I didn't think they were supposed to go. I don't know if I got a bad one or what, but I couldn't for the life of me figure out...
Just curious if anyone here still has one of the first Darwin model repraps. I'd love to see a picture of one of these, as I feel they were the starting point for reprap. I've never seen one.
I just saw this 3D printed Arabic Style Ceiling posted on imgur

How the heck would someone go about printing someting like this? I...
I agree with KDog. I'd go with the Printrbot to start out. More affordable and pretty simple to put together.
I hate the whole thing with Patents. If it weren't for patents, it wouldn't have taken 3D printing the 30 years it has taken to evolve. I wish Patents didn't exist, we'd be so much more advanced in...
Very interesting. So is the scanner already out or do they need additional funding in order to produce the units that KS backers purchased?
