I think I was one of the few kids in my school who didn’t have those glow in the dark stars and moons adorning his bedroom ceiling. Despite not having the pleasure ... Read more
PLA is a commonly remixed filament, often changed by blending it together with different materials. With this process, you can make some really cool colors and even visual effesilcts. This has been ... Read more
Water-washable resins largely remove the need for the arduous resin cleaning steps, and streamline the post-curing process. Post-processing resins is something of a divisive part of 3D printing. Many enjoy the hands-on ... Read more
Being environmentally conscious is at the forefront of many people’s priorities these days, and it’s the little changes that can really add up – such as using plant-baed resins rather than standard ... Read more
While high-resolution prints are what resins are mainly known for, most are unusable for pretty much anything but decorative pieces. But ABS-like resins, or tough resins, promise to change this. For more ... Read more
3D printer resins are normally used for decorative pieces. Once cured, they’re often quite hard and sturdy, making them ideal for decorative pieces and board game additions. But that doesn’t mean different ... Read more
Resin printing is known for its highly detailed models, often easy usability, fast hardening, and wide variety of available materials. Here we’re going to look at two different resins from well-known resin ... Read more
Standard 3D printing resin isn’t known for its strength. On the contrary, it’s among the most delicate and fragile 3D printing materials. But, it does produce much higher resolution prints with finer ... Read more
PLA is one of the most versatile filaments out there. It can be blended with different materials to change its color, texture, and even use Different kinds of materials give you different ... Read more
Most standard 3D printing filaments like PLA are plastic or plastic-based, and so are naturally electrically insulating. However, with newer innovations being researched and released, conductive 3D filaments are becoming more common ... Read more
We’re all here because we love 3D printing, but naturally it’s not without its drawbacks. One of the many is that, unless you have access to a dual extruder, 3D printing a ... Read more
