  1. Found this site while delving deep into the depths of the internet... I know Tyler will wish he had found this earlier!

    This site has (apparently) complete bills of materials for a huge amount of printers; Ultimaker, Replicator, and PrintrBots, to name a few.

  4. Hey guys,
    I ran into one of your members at where I work, at a hardware store up north.
    I'm starting a laser cutting/engraving business and am looking to people to want to help in reducing startup costs. In exchange, they'll get things like reduced laser time.
    Anyone who might be interested, I'm asking to fill out the form here:

  6. So if I understand correctly, this is the 3D printing club at UW. I was wondering what it takes to join (process, etc.), as well as when the club meets. Thanks!

    Conductive filament for 3D printing of electronic sensors. Check it and see.

  8. I see a tremendous opportunity for traditional lost-wax casting if there could be an additional heated head added to a 3d printer. The least enjoyable part of casting bronze for me was adding all of those sprues. Printing in wax is one of those materials that is cheap AND versatile. Of course one could skip the entire wax process if one could print directly with slurry. Current slurry recipes have gotten better...colloidal silica, a latex glue, ammonium alginate, a wetting agent, milled zircon, tabular alumina, glass rock and an anti-foaming agent. If you could alter that formula for 3d printing you would change the game completely. Backyard smelters would finally get to be a part of this new process. Heck just 3d printing in foam would make one of the oldest methods of metalcasting possible. Relief sand casts can be made with simple foam molds.

  10. Hello Fabbers!

    We like what you're doing here. Not sure if this group is in need of PLA and ABS filament, but we can help you with that. We are very new to the market and offer educational discounts. Nothing would please us more than to be associated with a group of this nature and caliber.

  13. Greetings Fabbers!

    I read an old article in the Seattle Times about a Mechanical Engineering student at the U.W. who created a 3d printer that used cut up, used plastic milk jugs as it's raw material. Apparently it would melt the plastic from the strips, and then print with it. It was written in November of 2012. The article said that he(Rogge) and his other two partners planned to sell them at roughly $3,000.

    The third world DESPERATELY needs this technology. One of those printers could save thousands of lives, every year. I know many people who would want one, including myself. What ever happened with those three people who created this garbage eating 3d printer? Is there anywhere I can buy one of these? Is there anybody who could make me one of these?

    Thank you,
