Research and Development in Self-Replicating Open-Source 3D Printing
The other day I started a brief Twitter discussion by saying something that I thought to be true: “…SLA can’t do multiple materials in a single print.” But, as Bill Steele and Joel Telling pointed out, I was wrong. Also
We have been experimenting with 3D printed Ravigneaux epicyclic gears to get a high-reduction-ratio gearbox in a compact space for making robots. They work if you drive them with a high-torque from an already geared-down motor, but they suffer from
The idea for this work and this blog post came from Youtuber Skyentific. So hat-tip to him, and do take a look at his channel. Ravigneaux epicyclic gears are a compact way to make a gearbox with a large
Most recycling streams are not set up to process PLA, despite the fact that PLA is probably the most widely-used 3D printed material and is easy to recycle in a number of ways. This needs to change, and the 3D
