My Nylon printing and colouring experiments attracted lots of attention, this was lots of fun and really abundant still one thing I still experiment with. I decide to do a follow-up article later this year regarding Nylon, mixed materials and additional color experiments.
For me 3DR has been wonderful to observe because it goes out into the planet as my wrestle a 3D written Delta, looking it then evolve into one thing far more is nice.
Releasing 3DR as associate degree ASCII text file project occupied lots longer than I had expected last year, however it additionally LED to some extremely nice conversations with individuals and much of different nice things. You at the start suppose that cathartic everything and seeing what individuals do with it'd permit longer to figure on different things. That wasn't the case, it's the maximum amount work as if you discharged it available or started an organization.
I'm about to unleash a minimum of another 3 machines this year, keep a watch out ;)
For me the start line into the delta pure mathematics was the city, this was a good printer to make and allowed lots of experimentation, particularly with tall prints that had not been potential before.
The Open Hand project by Joel Gibbard was an amazing project to envision get life, and with healthy backing the project is well afoot.
Joel additionally won the Venturefest award for best newcomer. Congratulations once more, and best desires from Maine for the continued project. IndiGoGo perks shipped out and hand-designs well below method.
Shows and Events -
The London Makerfaire, London 3D printshow and TCT Shows were another nice highlight of 2013, we've additional nice things planned for shows this year, TCT is moving to a three Day event and can be larger and higher than ever.
Associations -
We ar setting out to see many various 3D printing associations and 'standards' being setup, thus i used to be delighted once the 3D printing association asked Maine to be a member of the board of advisers, we tend to ar reaching to promote, guide and advise as many folks as potential with 3D printing and every one types of additive producing.
News and dedicated 3D printing websites boomed in 2013 and can still grow and mature with each content and recommendation. It's nearly exhausting to ignore 3D printing currently and it is also terribly apparent, that several individuals ar setting out to remember this technology is turning into helpful for tiny businesses, and at a excusable value level.
My go-to news sites for 3D printing news ar the 3DPrintingIndustry UN agency I additionally try and write attention-grabbing articles for as time permits, last I announce one on filament employment (tech for trade).
And another is 3DERS.org - a whole web site with news and everything you'll imagine to try to to with 3D printing, it's wonderful what and the way quick they develop 3DP news and PR.
Sharing -
We have additionally seen sharing sites grow and evolve. There ar way too several to say currently, however one I even have used and can continue with is that the wonderful Youmagine (by the Ultimaker team).And GitHub, wherever all form of cool things happen, all the time :)Kickstarter and IndieGoGo each had a large range of 3D printing and associated comes up for funding.
3D Printing Future -
As usual time and different work got here the method of all the opposite things I wished to experiment with and do, my list of comes and ideas grows larger each month, however I still managed to style and do lots of things over Christmas, i will get on my feet web log posts and pictures as presently as I will on these and future planned work, if any of you would like to collaborate on any comes or innovation, do get up-to-date.
