MIT spinout Atlas Building Composites is turning plastic waste into resilient building materials using AI-powered robotic manufacturing. The company converts single-use plastics into durable composite parts for buildings and infrastructure. Parts are already being used in barns, decks, and bridges, including a 40-foot bridge for the US Army Corps of Engineers. https://news.mit.edu/2026/mit-spinout-turns-plastic-waste-into-resilient-building-materials-0914 #3Dprint #3Dprinting #Materials

I don't like the amount of play (out-of-plane rotation) in the homemade bearing, but it'll be fine until it's not. It does feel like it'll still be able to turn under weight, which is what it needs to do. #robotics #3dPrinting

Tune in at 9pm Central to dive into how I work with agents in my coding workflow. I have an endless queue of creative projects using agents that involve #Coding, music, text adventures, #electronics, #3DPrinting, #GameDevelopment, #RetroComputing, and more!

Photocentric has unveiled JENI, an autonomous production platform that combines high-resolution LCD 3D printing with robotic post-processing to produce plastic parts at volumes and costs rivaling injection molding. A single module can produce 238,000 stand-off spacers per day at under 2 cents each. The system runs continuously unattended, with each job carrying its own process parameters. https://www.3dnatives.com/en/photocentric-jeni-14092026/ #3Dprint #3Dprinting #IndustrialAM

I just cut a leather template from an acrylic sheet so I can use it offline, but I think I prefer to cut the leather directly with the laser cutter.
Meanwhile, the printer is pumping out Dumpling Clickers. -

@diffusedtactics this is very cool! Thank you for sharing! I'll be spreading the word with my 3d printing community! #3dprinting

There. Some #FreeCAD and #3Dprinting later I have an item that does what I want and it even has the look I wanted.
The cup is PETG and the mount solid PA as it gets squeezed pretty hard.
I'll upload the model once I've cleaned it up a bit and try out some printing enhancements to the first model.

The UK's Guide Dogs charity has launched a pilot programme creating 3D printed tactile ultrasound models for visually impaired expectant parents. The First Hello initiative allows blind parents-to-be to feel the contours of their unborn baby, something sighted parents take for granted. The free service transforms standard 20-week scan images into 3D printed models shipped within a week. https://3dprint.com/332478/uk-charity-3d-prints-ultrasounds-for-visually-impaired-parents/ #3Dprint #3Dprinting #Medical

It came out pretty decent.
The holder part works pretty much how I wanted. The jury is still out for the mounting part but as the holder just slides in its place, I can redesign the mount part later if needed.

Ooh, as a lazy person with a 3D printer this looks rather appealing.
Yes, I've already got a bunch of indicator silica gel, and vacuum bags, and a filament drier. Do I use them properly? No, because lazy. But a cabinet that I just need to put my filament into and it will automagically always be dry when I want to use it? This is an instance of paying to make a problem go away that I could get behind.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@geekrealmhub/117259897907719722
I've been very happy with the Kickstarter edition Creality CR-6 that I've been using for the past 6 years, but it's getting a little dated in its capabilities. This new K3 looks like it may be at the top of my upgrade list, with the promise of an open ecosystem and root access; the exact opposite of Bamboo's approach. Plus, need to upgrade before all these ridiculous state big brother laws go into effect.

ModelRift's blog serves up an epic showdown between #CadQuery and #OpenSCAD for AI-generated gizmos 🦾. Spoiler: both fail spectacularly, but with different flavors of disappointment 🚫🤖. Just what the CAD world needed—more ways to mess up 3D printing 🙄.
