    Seems like the obvious next step. I would expect a rotary type of head to come next. One that has 5 or 6 colors of filament coming in and rotates each strand into the extruder instead of just sliding...

    The bctech... HBP is also called the Bottleworks plate, I believe because the guy who developed it uses that name on the Makerbot google group. There may be more reviews of it there.

    I think that is the key question there. If there is a little more expansion of regular glass, you could even make the argument that it would be easier to remove the print after printing if the...

    IN the past few months, we have continued to develop these plates and have come to a few conclusions and an improved design. The current design is more rigid than the early versions, but still...

    It's worked well with what I've printed on it so far. I would love to try some parts you've had trouble with to test it further. Can you share a file with me? I can work in a 5" cube. Thanks.
  7. A new surface to print on..What do you think?

    Ever since I got my printer I've been disappointed with the choices for printing platforms. So I developed something that I think is a better alternative. I'd love to get some feedback and/or...

    Very touching story! So incredible to see people collaborate over the internet to create a new hand for this boy. But doesn't it make you squirm just a bit at the end, knowing that the printer was a...

    Another CAD program to consider is Rhino. It has an academic version at low cost as well, but it doesn't cut you off after a year like Solidworks does. (Note, I'm a long time SW user and love it, but...

    How did it go Rene? I have an Afinia, which is the same printer as yours. You need to keep the nozzle close to the bed and the bed has to be very, very level. Watch the first layer carefully...if the...

    Hi BakerEvan,

    Thanks for the insight on the cross section calculation. I was well aware that filament could be oval, but had not thought much about the volume of material and how that is affected. I would have...

    I agree that it's not going to be the world changing technology that the media has made it out to be. I don't see people ordering things on Amazon and they print in the magic box in their living...

    Sure. It's biggest advantage would be for printing ABS. I'd like to print inside my house (instead of the garage) during certain times of the year, but I don't like my kids breathing the fumes. (I...

    One step at a time

    Put your money into a good printer and make sure you get one big enough for what you want to do. (The miser pays twice.) Master that first with some good off the shelf filament and then look at some...

    iPad Stand - FREE
