Power of Personal Production Imagine that you could design a three-dimensional object as quickly as it would take to decide on material and computer design: this idea is what created the technology of 3D printing. From the conception of 3D printing in 1984, to the first stem cell transplant, 3D printing has evolved from a sci-fi like idea to a realistic addition in individual consumer lifestyles. Now instead of relying on large manufactures to produce a special or specific good, the consumer has

California’s Gas Prices Overpriced California since the gold rush has been known as the “Golden State” where it’s flooded with multicultural richness from the beaches to the mountains. California today is the most densely populated state with 38.8 million residents and is still rising, however, not only is the population ever increasing so are gas prices. Allysia Finley an editorial writer from The Wall Street Journal states, “The national average is $2.76 a gallon, while the Golden State drivers

The company Apis Cor has figured out how to construct houses using a 3D printer and thus have the potential to change the housing industry forever. Many companies have tried to use 3D printing in order to print houses however none have been successful until now. Apis Cor took a different approach to the issue, instead of making a printer that was larger than the housing unit it was attempting to print, it made a 3D printer that was able to be transported easily on a transport truck. This specialized

Process: Once an alchemical object/tool was chosen, a model was designed using a 3D printing software. In this case, a design of an Erlenmeyer flask was downloaded and imported to the software. The design was then scaled and orientated correctly. The designed was converted to the correct format, saved, and exported. It was then prepared for printing. In Thinkbox, a spool was obtained and loaded into the 3D printer, following the instructions on the screen. The file was opened on the provided computer

For my community service, I volunteered at PVNET during the past year. I learned multiple things while helping people with their coding classes, computer science classes, 3D modeling classes, and tinkering classes. I go to PVNET every Friday and Saturday for at least 5 hours. PVNET is located in the Rolling Hills mall, under the movie theater, and right next to Pottery Barn. At PVNET, I learned to use the 3D printers, to 3D model objects with software programs, and methods. 3D modeling takes up a

Three-dimensional (3D) printing is an exciting feat of modern human innovation emerging at the dawn of a new industrial uprising, however as we all know, with all beneficial revolutions come vindictive consequence. 3D printable firearms are a stain in a revolution that could potentially change the world as we know it. These weapons are a reality and they are under much scrutiny in the engineering and technological world with major implications on public safety and loopholes in federal regulations

have flocked to the idea of 3-D printing. First, it is important to know exactly what 3-D printing really is. 3-D printing has many names, but is mainly referred to as additive manufacturing or rapid prototyping. An Article defines 3-D printing as “A process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file… in an additive process an object is created by laying down successive layers of material until the

in data from computer-aided design (CAD) drawings and manufacture automatically three-dimensional objects layer-by-layer according to the virtual design (Sanna 2008). 3D printing also known as additive manufacturing is any of various processes used to make a three-dimensional object. In 3D printing, additive processes are used in which successive layers of material are laid down under computer control. These objects can be almost any shape or geometry and are produced from a 3D model or other electronic

by using a 3-D modeling technology printing concept. 3-D (Three-Dimensional) modeling technology in the medical field has been an innovation since the 1980’s. This technology has come a long ways. 3-D modeling technology printing is a method of additive manufacturing and built-up technique where a three dimensional object is shaped by laying down consecutive layers of material to create an object in a 3-D aspect. Recently, there has been an increase in the number of companies providing personalized

and like the original printers they are rapidly moving on from their slow, expensive and cumbersome beginnings . The Makerbot replicator 2 is an example of a 3d printer available to the consumer retailing for approx $2000. 3d printing relies on additive manufacturing which allows objects to be built layer by layer only using the exact amount of material needed reducing waste and of course allowing for more complicated designs to be printed in full form. Users can design a 3d model in computer software
