I had some experiences with printing things that fly and I wanted also to try my CAD designing skills in redesigning the Jesus nut of this rotor. I knew exactly that It would have to be a precision print if I wanted it to fly and I also...
Hackaday World Create Day is on March 17th and it’s happening near you. Get together with hackers in your area and create something. For the area of Muncie we will have Steve Dalcher walking those in attendance though the processes you would have to...
I am amazed to find out every day there are so many people out there who would like to start learning more about 3D printing. The best way and the cheapest way to start is to go for a Mendel or Prusa printer in my opinion. They are certainly not the...
See it in Action: BreakOut in Single-Player Mode See it in Action: Tennis-for-Two in Multi-Player Mode How to Build Your Own TeleBall Building your own TeleBall device is a multi-discipline DIY project that can be done during one weekend, given that...
The Robotics CoLab at Circuit Launch undertook building Reachy in the Fall 12 week session. This open source robotics platform is available from Pollen Robotics and CoLab undertook building it from scratch. There were lots of challenges as Reachy is...
Since the design is modular, you can obtain mechanical advantage at different rates by using any number of rollers and blocks. In order to gain this mechanical advantage, I designed this block and tackle system with fusion360. I used 8 reels and 10 blocks...
Heated Bed for M3DI made this project as a heated bed is the most reliable way of printing ABS models with extruding 3d printers. ABS is less brittle than PLA and a bit more heat resistant. M3D printer comes with a very impressive price of 350$ but also...

3d printing is an incredible technology that helps designers create amazingly models. It is great for printing from 1-10 repeated designs, but lets say you want to print 20, 30, 50, 100. Imagine a small print that takes 1 hour, if you wanted to make...
Eric Utley will host the Hack Chat on Wednesday, May 24 at noon Pacific. Time zones got you down? Try our handy time zone converter. Like a lot of enabling technologies, 3D printing has had a strange trajectory. It started out as a laboratory oddity,...
IntroductionThis tool currently has a form of a 3D-printed UV lamp holder with a magnetic frame (3d printed with magnets embedded) to hold inkjet- or laser-printed transparency films with exposure masks, or 3D printed masks for simpler designs and shapes....
DESIGN OF THE STRUCTURE Statement of the problem You need to find a compromise between a number of characteristics to design a prosthesis and need to prioritise between them to do this. As described above the direct purpose of the project is developing...
Making mistakes ..At the beginning I just wanted to remove my glove box in order to change a blown fuse, unfortunately I also broke a plastic hinge in the process. The glove box area, the blue part is the replacement, the black one is the original.I...
"Bolt Box" is a 3D printed dual nut version of a single nut puzzle box I'd seen at craft shows over the years. A friend (and follower) asked if I could recreate the dual nut version (which is currently commercially available as "Nut Case") for 3D printing,...
The original idea was somewhat like enterprise blade server - a chassis that takes care of power and network distribution, with processor modules that can be easily added and removed. The recently released Raspberry Pi 2 features a quad core ARM processor,...
