This is another “couldn’t resist” for today — a ridiculous world record attempt that douses some of those previous (highly optimized) 3D printing pen time lapses with a mix of humor and cold water reality. While I do love 3D printing pens, I appreciated a more accurate portrayal of the travails of mastering one. 😉 Via 3Dprintingindustry.com.
Man Makes World Record Attempt for Using A 3D Printing Pen to Create Spiderman:
Here is my Official World Record attempt for the fastest and most accurately drawn 3D Spiderman, using a 3D printing pen. You won’t believe how quickly and professionally I managed to create it.
Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!
Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
The Adafruit Learning System has dozens of great tools to get you well on your way to creating incredible works of engineering, interactive art, and design with your 3D printer! We also offer the LulzBot TAZ – Open source 3D Printer and the Printrbot Simple Metal 3D Printer in our store. If you’ve made a cool project that combines 3D printing and electronics, be sure to let us know, and we’ll feature it here!
