At the 2015 Maker Faire NYC a few months back, I had the opportunity to meet with the founders of M3D, the creators of the M3D Micro 3D printer. At the time, I was able to get a bit of a hands on experience with the printer and came away thoroughly impressed and in agreement with the idea that the M3D Micro could be the first true consumer 3D printer. The guys at M3D were gracious enough to send over a printer for review and I had the opportunity to log a good deal of time with the Micro. And I’m happy to report that I am still very impressed.
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!
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
