3D Printing

October 27, 2017

Yo!

Watcha up to? 

In the midst of all of this Harvey Weinstein news, I came across an interesting documentary called An Open Secret -- check if out if you get a chance.

Anyway, hope you enjoy today's digest.

As always, if you have any questions/comments or news items that I didn't cover, hit me up.

Until next time, my friend,

Contemplation:

"..You know, most people don’t know the difference between apple cider and apple juice, but I do. Now here’s a little trick to help you remember. If it’s clear and yella’, you’ve got juice there, fella. If it’s tangy and brown, you’re in cider town. Now, there’s two exceptions and it gets kinda tricky here…" -- Ned Flanders, Simpsons, 1996

[ARTICLE / VIDEO] - 7 Year Old Pitches at Baseball Game with 3D Printed Hand

Laura Griffiths - tctmagazine.com

I know I've covered 3D Printed prosthesis many many times.

Still, this is damn cool and adorable.

[ARTICLE] - 3D Printing Gives Hackers Entirely New Ways to Wreak Havoc

Alessandro Di Fiore - hbr.org

It's a great subject.

I only wish that the article was much longer and in depth. 

[PRODUCT] - Prusa i3 MK3 Out

Josef Prusa - prusaprinters.com

This is arguably THE most popular open source printer at the moment.

Now, an upgrade for this series is available. 

Worth checking out.

I've heard nothing but positive things about Prusa printers. 

[PRODUCT] - Hexatope, an App That Lets You Design 3D Printable Jewelry

Hexatope - hexatope.io

As 3D printing becomes increasingly popular among a new generation of designers and jewelry makers, one London-based artist is exploring the possibilities of online co-creation and collaboration with her clients.

Hexatope is a new app that lets users experiment, develop, and design their own pendant necklace in 3D printed sterling silver or 18-carat gold plating.

Very interesting. 

[KICKSTARTER] - Mooz: Industrial Grade Transformable Metallic 3D Printer

Kickstarter - kickstarter.com

Can't really vouch for quality, but just wanted to send this your way.

It's another Kickstarter that's doing quite well. 

[PRODUCT] - Cross platform Desktop 3D Printing App

AstroPrint - medium.com

This was released this morning.

It's essentially a cross platform app that enhances your workflow while using your 3D Printer with the AstroPrint cloud.

[COURSE] - 3D Printing for Prototyping and Production

3D Print - 3dprint.com

This is a premium ($149) course that's meant to teach folks about 3D Printing.

It's interesting as I've seen only a few courses dedicated to 3D Printing. 

The other (Free) course I know of is this one on Coursera

If you know of any others, please let me know.

[PRODUCT] - A Website for Trading Used 3D Printers

3D Printer Trade - 3dprintertrade.com

I came across this site accidentally.

Essentially, it was built by a member of the 3D Printing community to help people trade used 3D Printers easily.

Worth checking it out.

Also, it's just the first version, so expect bugs. 

[COMPANY] - Ultimaker Gets Undisclosed Amount of Funding

Sam Davies - tctmagazine.com

I don't know precisely how much, but it looks like an undisclosed amount by a private equity firm.
