There seems to be no limit to what we can do with 3D printing. Just last week, we reported on Chinese scientists 3D printing organ tissue for transplanting into burn victims. Today, we're sharing an amazing 3D printed innovation in cancer research that comes from Tissue Tinker, a company spinoff from McGill University. The company has put together a team that has managed to 3D print tumors for cancer research.

TissueTinker was promoted by the McGill Innovation Fund

You’ve got one of the best 3D printers , and whether it's one of the best budget 3D printers , or something a little more spendy (like the Prusa CORE One ), you need tools to keep it running smoothly.

Sure you get some tools in the box, but getting a dedicated 3D printer toolkit will make short work of caring for your 3D printer.

I've looked around Amazon during its Prime Day sales and I'

It’s no longer a rumor, the mystery tool changer from Snapmaker leaked in March 2025, is launching on Kickstarter later this year. Snapmaker reached out to Tom’s Hardware with a teaser and will be sending a unit for testing before the official Kickstarter launch this summer .

The Snapmaker U1 is a four-color tool changer with a sleek frame and clear acrylic front and back. It’s a huge leap, both aesthetically and practically, from the Snapmaker

The Aero Engine Corporation of China (AECC) has 3D printed what it calls a micro turbojet engine. This isn't a model or replica print—this is the real deal. This 3D printed micro turbojet engine actually works and successfully flew when recently tested. This information comes to us from Global Times, which shared details from the official AECC WeChat page.

The announcement came on Wednesday when AECC confirmed the test flight took place in North China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region

3D printing and silicon photonics have combined in a rather exciting way this week. Researchers at MIT have engineered a novel 3D printing design on a single computer chip, officially the world's first chip-based 3D printer. The chip emits beams of light into a well of resin to fabricate designs, and will be iterated on to create a fully volumetric 3D printer on a chip.

The printer employs no moving parts, using a series of nanometer-scale antennas to

We've seen 3D printers that can print some strange materials—one of our favorites being a chocolate 3D printer. That said, we have never come across one that can 3D print organs. At least, not until today, when we discovered that scientists from the University of Hong Kong in China are experimenting with technology to 3D print functional organ tissue .

SCMP shared a post detailing the ins and outs of the development, featuring Professor Michael Chan from the team

Fashion designer Hugo, an offshoot of fashion giant Hugo Boss, has debuted a 3D-printed shoe that has us intrigued. The shoe is completely 3D printed and is designed to resemble a style of loafer. These shoes are produced in partnership with Zellerfeld —a company that specializes in fully 3D printed shoes.

Unlike traditional shoes, these are constructed as a single piece. There are no soles to be stitched on or separate pieces to be glued. The entire

We recently discovered a new AI-powered web tool that promises to troubleshoot and solve all your 3D printing problems. PrintFix.io is simple to use and offers a free trial plan to test the AI’s advice. Finding reliable help when your prints fail can be challenging, especially for those new to the hobby and unfamiliar with the terms commonly used in 3D printing.

Many people turn to Facebook groups for advice, only to be met with hostile responses that
