We were out at @lpoolmakefest yesterday, a fun-packed day of all manner of #maker activities and demos, held at @DoESLiverpool

We had 193 boops across the day, the top five objects were:

1. @defnetmedia's melting snowman
2. a 3D-printed heart from @huffeec's 3D-printing school course collection
3. a 3D print of the British Museum's Hoa Hakananai'a
4. the Natural History Museum's electron microscopy 3D scan of a blowfly head
5. a postcard of a carpenter frog

Impossible Objects has raised 40m USD in Series B funding to scale production of its Composite-Based Additive Manufacturing (CBAM) technology. The financing will expand industrial AM systems and customer deployments, with applications including US defence drones. https://www.tctmagazine.com/impossible-objects-raises-40m-to-increase-production-of-composite-additive-manufacturing-systems/ #3Dprint #3Dprinting #IndustrialAM

🤖 NEW: A 22-year-old founder in #Nairobi built a 3D-printed robotic hand that converts a teacher’s spoken words into sign language, so #deaf Kenyan #students can learn from instructors who never learned to sign.

With roughly 300,000 deaf #children in #Kenya and no standardized national #signlanguage, her team recorded deaf #teachers and experienced signers in an electrode-lined bodysuit to build their own dataset from scratch.

Meta Quest user vibe-codes 3D object throwing to 3D printer — ‘I've never felt more like Tony Stark’ says the software engineer

My colleague has built himself a press from wood, dowels, glue and two aluminum plates. The press has a lever you can sit on to exert the pressure onto a 3D printed inked template. This is one of his first results and I love it! 🤩

[Yes, at first I also read the word as "Storch!" (stork) 😅]

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

The only animated skeleton in St. Louis has a problem...

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.

Weeks of work coming to life 😆 love it!

@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.
