Printables My go-to site when I’m just looking for a file to send to the printer. It’s really community-focused with regular design contests that enable a growing ecosystem of new and creative 3D prints. There’s a reward system that encourages both designers and users to participate by publishing models or uploading “makes” of files they’ve […]
If you’ve never heard of a space mouse, the term probably elicited a giggle. A space mouse is an input device like a mouse, but instead of sliding it over a surface, it works more like a 3d point in space. You would typically use it in a 3D program, like CAD. This allows you […]
3D printing presents a fantastic tool for making speakers. If you’ve looked at how modern speakers are made you’ll find that there is all kinds of complex internal geometry that can lead to better sound. As DIY Perks points out, this makes 3D printing the best tool for the job. Unfortunately, the material of plastic […]
