There are tons of filament and resin options available for 3D printing today, but we've never come across one like this. Researchers at the University of Texas at Austin have developed a new 3D printing technique (spotted by New Atlas ) that makes it possible to print both hard and flexible materials at the same time using just one resin.
This process not only lets you manufacture two different hardnesses of 3D printed materials, but also print the two
The humid summer weather didn’t stop a thousand 3D printing fanatics from gathering at a county fairground in Amish Country for the 13th Annual Midwest RepRap Festival in Goshen, IN. Hobbyists showed off hand-built mods, businesses showcased their new innovations, pallets of filament were for sale, and in the back room, builders bashed 3D-printed robots.
It was just a few months ago, in April, that we covered the unveiling of a new Kickstarter campaign from the tech manufacturer Anker. At the time, we were excited because of the amazing creative potential that comes from developing a 3D texture printer known as the eufyMake E1 (a printer capable of printing on different types of surfaces). Today, however, we're more interested in the fact that this campaign has been the most successful Kickstarter to date,
The eufyMake E1 UV Printer recently launched on Kickstarter, drawing attention for its promise to bring professional-grade printing to home users and small businesses alike.

The world of prosthetics has been changed forever thanks to the advent of 3D printing. We recently covered a story about a gentleman who received a 3D-printed face repair . Today, however, we've got a 3D printed replica of a 16th century wrought iron prosthetic hand put together by researchers at Auburn University .
Great news for 3D printing deal hunters as Bambu Lab celebrates its 3rd anniversary with some superb discounts on a host of printer products and accessories. One that really stood out, though, was this amazing discount on the excellent Bambu Lab P1P - a high-speed Core XY printer that can blast prints out in next to no time, thanks to its up to 20,000 mm/s² acceleration.
If you head on over to the Bambu Lab
The EuFy Make 1 UV printer has raised over $44 million on Kickstarter (click here) . And you still have four days left to secure your copy! Find out why this UV printer is so important for photographers in this new review by iJustine. She has printed her images on a variety of different materials:
With this UV printer, you can print your photos on over 300 materials. I think for some of you who are professional photographers, this could also become a profitable business tool?
It looks like the world of 3D printing is continuing to expand its spaghetti-like branches into the field of construction. It wasn't long ago when we covered the world's tallest 3D printed building , but the project we have to share today is more on the repair and restoration side. Rather than produce a new structure, the University of Massachusetts at Amherst has been working with researchers at MIT to develop a bridge repair process involving a 3D printing technique called cold
Some of the coolest projects we've seen come from makers who make something because they can, not because of any necessity., Today, we came across a neat 3D-printed drill press by a YouTuber known as DC Sets. This project didn't just involve 3D printing a drill press; he also bought one to study and then designed a custom STL from scratch.
As cool as this project is, that's its main selling point. According to
It seems like 3D printing is more often than not scaled on the macro side of things, like the world's tallest 3D printed building that we covered recently, but now and then we get to see things from a micro perspective. Today we've got a project to share put together by a team of scientists that have managed to 3D print structures that are so small, you need a microscope to see them. The process creates what the team refers
