These days it’s super-easy (not super-cheap) to go out and buy a 3D printer. But if you’ve got the mad skills like [Mario Lukas] maybe you can build a 3D print using a bunch of scavenged parts ...

There was a time, not so very long ago, that buying a reliable 3D printer was a fairly expensive proposition. Many chose to build their own printer instead, and for a few years, we were flooded with ...

To work toward getting around this issue, researchers used parabolic flights to simulate microgravity conditions, then 3D ...

Imagine a future in which you could 3D-print an entire robot or stretchy, electronic medical device with the press of a button—no tedious hours spent assembling parts by hand. That possibility may be ...

3D-printing technology has been used to create everything from bio items like eye cells to large structures including concrete houses. Some items are more functional than others, but any success ...

Forget printing plastic action figures, scientists at Princeton have built a 3D printer that makes quantum dot LEDs from scratch. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X (opens in a new ...
