Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) researchers have developed a novel 3D printing technique that uses light to build complex structures, then cleanly dissolves the support material ...

Slant 3D use FDM 3D printing for mass production [Gabe] even hosted a Hack Chat on the subject. They have come up with a number of innovative design tricks which are also useful for the hobbyist.

Researchers recently shared details on creating foldable, self-locking structures by using multi-material 3D printing. These origami-inspired designs can transition between flat and three-dimension… ...

Surface Finish and Aesthetics Upward-facing surfaces generally produce the best finish in 3D printing, though results vary depending on the printing process. In FDM, the top surface is smoothed by the ...

Having an impact “Impact printing” is a cement-free alternative to 3D-printed structures Impact printing uses a high-velocity jet of material, fusing it into a structure.
