It’s nearly impossible to think about 3D printing an object without considering the cost associated with it. Historically speaking, the cost of 3D printing has always been high, although, without a 3D model it’s hard to pin down the exact cost of a 3D print. 3D printing is no longer as expensive as it once…
If you’ve ever crossed paths with a 3D printer then you may have noticed a liquid substance at the bottom of the tank. This substance, commonly known as ‘resin’, helps the printer produce accurate and detailed prints. However, before it’s of any use, the resin needs to be completely solidified. Resin, used in 3D printing…
If you’ve ever seen a 3D printed item, there’s a decent chance that it is concealing a well-hidden attribute – it’s usually hollow inside! Did you know that this little magic trick (where 3D printed parts are planned with a profoundly controlled level of porosity) is done with the help of infill patterns? This makes…
The technology behind 3D printing is complex and still relatively new. However, in just a short period since it was first introduced 3D printing has in many ways revolutionized the way we think about computer-aided manufacturing and rapid prototyping systems. If you’ve decided that you want to be a part of this amazing new technology,…
With the 3D printer, the power of creation is finally in the palm of your hands. However, we know starting can be slightly overwhelming. For this reason, we have put together this beginners’ guide on how to 3D print. Here is how to 3D print. First, create the model using a 3D design software. After…
How To 3d Print Lithophane To 3D print your own lithophane from your image, start by choosing a picture with a reasonably high contrast ratio. Next, use either Cura, Image to STL converter, lithophanes application, or PhotoToMesh to generate the 3D model of the image. Finally, slice the model and 3D print the image. You’d…
