The materials you can use to produce 3D prints have exploded over the past few years. One of those materials is wood (or "wood"). Having been provided a spool of filament, I decided to put it through ...
Believe it or not, you can now squeeze wood through the nozzle of your 3D printer. This new addition to the maker’s palette of 3D printer filaments comes from the mind of [Kai Parthy]. The new ...
The bambooFill 3D printing filament is a revolutionary material that combines the natural aesthetics of bamboo wood with the versatility of PHA/PLA. When used to 3D print objects, the resulting pieces ...
GEHR (Mannheim, Germany) a producer of thermoplastic semi-finished products globally, introduces Eco-Fil-A-Gehr, a novel wood-based filament designed for professional 3D printing with high dimensional ...
3D printing "wood" has been with us for quite some time. Back in 2016, I showed how plastic filament infused with wood particles could be used to create objects that had a wood-like texture, could be ...
Printed plastics? So 2011. And high-end printers have been working with metals and ceramics for some time. But now the 3-D printing community is toying with a material more natural in origin: printed ...
3D printing is a kind of computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) that enables the production of physical products via computer-aided designs (CAD). Compared to traditional manufacturing methods such as ...
You’ve acquired your first 3D printer and are giddy with excitement. But like all new additive manufacturing adventurers, the more you do with your printer the more questions arise. Don’t worry, we’ve ...
3D printing filament manufacture Fillamentum and creator of the awesome Timberfill wood filament, has launched two new additions to its range in the form of the Wood and Crystal Clear filaments. The ...
Inside a workshop near Boston, a six-foot-long 3D printer is churning out furniture that looks indistinguishable from wood, built layer by layer from sawdust that otherwise would have been wasted. “We ...
Here’s another project with the worthy ultimate aim of repurposing household plastic waste as useful 3D filament for making new stuff with your home 3D printer. Both the Strooder and the Filabot are ...
