John W., a current student and Fab Lab assistant, helped to wire-in and test a paste extruder with our stock Monoprice Mini V2. John...

Even before a proper test, I am finding things to improve within this clay extruder design. As I modify components, I keep the previous...

Assembly begins! 2020 aluminum extrusions, 3D printed components, stepper motor, & belt. I will eventually post a full bill of materials...

I think the auger needs fairly aggressive threads in order to push clay, so it's getting a redesign. This should work better. #3Dprinting...

A 3D scan of crawdad remains printed in grey resin. With approximately 2,000 layers in this print, they become nearly invisible....

3D printed housing for the Arduino and CNC shield/stepper drivers. I remixed this design from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2379541/f...

There are nearly 900 layers in this little 1.5'' high skull. The resolution is amazing! Printed on an Anycubic Photon. This was the very...

Capturing high quality 3D scans can be challenging, but I am experiencing some pretty good results with an Einscan scanner. Even on...

When you're out of good parts, you might need to improvise. Bluetooth robot with two DC motors and an office chair wheel mounted on a...

Download the plans here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2756604 Cheap to build (if you have access to a laser cutter) and fun to...

My plans, which are remixed from an Arduino container by Zygmunt W., are available here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2802290 Build...

I have begun to 3D print components for a CNC pen plotter. If all goes well, it will be able to create a drawing up to approximately 25 x...

A little inline gearbox for reducing RPM and, hopefully, generating a little more torque. To be laser cut and 3D printed. Designed in...
