As impressive as the 3D printing process is, it can also be a bit time consuming. You are creating something out of nothing after all, and your printer needs to dispense and layer every square inch of ...

Radiation patterns for antennas can be utterly confusing, especially when presented in two dimensions, as they usually are. Fear not, [Hunter] has your back with 3D printed and color-coded radiation ...

New research addresses some of the technical issues that still need to be solved for 3D printed concrete to be strong enough for use in more free-form structures. Researchers found lobster-inspired ...

Many makers think maxing out infill is the key to durable 3D prints, but true strength comes from smarter design and slicer choices. Wall thickness, infill pattern, and layer adhesion often matter ...

The CRAFT method uses widely available materials and inexpensive commercial 3D printers. Using an affordable 3D printer and the CRAFT method, researchers created a model human hand from a single ...

James has been writing about technology for years but has loved it since the early 90s. While his main areas of expertise are maker tools -- 3D printers, vinyl cutters, paper printers, and laser ...

African pottery is an age-old craft that reflects the continent's rich cultural heritage. However, with the advent of 3D ...

Study shows that bio-mimicking spiral patterns inspired the natural strength of lobster shells can improve the overall durability of 3D printed concrete New research shows that patterns inspired by ...
