Slip casting can be messy both in processing and in making the original plaster mold. What if there was a better way, thanks to 3D printing? [Allie Katz] has developed …read more Continue reading Slab Casting – A New Way to Combine 3D Printing and Ceramics
Most of our 3D printers print in plastic. While metal printing exists, the setup for it is expensive and the less expensive it is, the less impressive the results are. But there are other materials available, including ceramic. You don’t see many hobby-level ceramic printers, but a company, StoneFlower, aims to change all that with a print head that fits a normal 3D printer and extrudes clay.
