In this video, I explore large-format 3D printing and its impact on creating functional prints that solve real-world problems ...

This is more than a printing filament hack — closer to bleeding edge bio-engineering — but we can’t help but be fascinated by the prospect of 3D printing with filament that’s alive on a ...

But there’s always been an issue with this approach: the old filament material remains in the nozzle, and must be purged ...

We’re testing the new Creality Hi Combo multicolor 3D printer. This is part one of a four-part series, please read parts two, ...

This printer didn't come before the Creality Ender 3 and its derivatives, but after. With such a small 165mm-by-165mm-by-80mm print volume, Creality did away with one side of the frame and created ...

After you pick a 3D printer, the first decision you'll have to make is what type of filament you want to use. Look deep enough, and you'll see several dozen varieties—even setting aside the ...

Moisture is 3D printer filament’s worst enemy. This spool comes in a vacuum-sealed foil bag, meaning it’s almost guaranteed to come to your house as fresh as can be. It has a great balance of ...

My practical 3D printing advice is simple: if you're buying a new 3D printer, get one with a filament runout sensor. If you don't have one, see if it can be added and invest a few bucks to upgrade ...

If you frequently use a 3D printer for your projects then you may experience issues calculating the material weight and length usage. If so, then you might be interested in this project using Arduino.

Filament-based 3D printers are remarkably wasteful. If you buy a kilogram of filament from your favorite supplier, the odds are that it will come wrapped around a plastic spool weighing about 250 ...
