[TenTech]’s Fuzzyficator brings fuzzy skin — a textured finish normally limited to sides of 3D prints — to the top layer with the help of some non-planar printing, no hardware …read more Continue reading Fuzzy Skin Finish for 3D Prints, Now On Top Layers
When working with an FDM 3D printer your first prints are likely trinkets where strength is less relevant than surface quality. Later on when attempting more structural prints, the settings …read more Continue reading One Object to Print, but So Many Settings!
Slicers are the neat little tools that take your 3D models and turn them into G-code that your 3D printer can actually understand. They control the printing process down to …read more Continue reading Orca Slicer Is The New Game In Town
When we first started 3D printing, we used ABS and early slicers. Using supports was undesirable because the support structures were not good, and ABS sticks to itself like crazy. …read more Continue reading A Comprehensive Look at FDM Supports
RepRap 3D printers were designed with the ultimate goal of self-replicating machines. The generatively-designed Gen5X printer by [Ric Real] brings the design step of that process closer to reality. While …read more Continue reading 5-Axis Printer Wants to Design Itself
Having too many slicers is almost as bad as not having enough. When slicers are cluttering your Power BI dashboard, consider replacing them with parameters.
The post How to create a field parameter in Power BI appeared first on TechRepublic.

An accidental discovery by [3DQue] allows overhangs on FDM printers that seem impossible at first glance. The key is to build the overhang area with concentric arcs. It also helps …read more Continue reading Arc Overhangs Make “Impossible” 3D Prints
It always seemed to us that the Z-axis on a 3D printer, or pretty much any CNC machine for that matter, is criminally underused. To have the X- and Y-axes …read more Continue reading RotBot Adds a Extra Dimension to 3D Printing, with a Twist
Most desktop fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printers these days use a 0.4 mm nozzle. While many people have tried smaller nozzles to get finer detail and much larger nozzles …read more Continue reading Go Big Or Go Home: 0.6 mm Nozzles are the Future
When you think of slicers for FDM 3D printing — especially free slicers — you probably think of Cura, Slic3r, or PrusaSlicer. There are fans of MatterControl and many people …read more Continue reading SuperSlicer Reviewed: Another 3DP Slicer?
