Shapeways and Stratasys to launch new full-color, multi-material 3D printing manufacturing services 3D Printing Service Providers

Ever since it was launched last year (and even earlier when its Connex3 predecessor was launched), many of us working in AM have been wondering why Stratasys never fully leveraged the system’s unique voxel-level control 3D printing capabilities to provide widespread services instead of just continuing to focus on just prototyping. Sure, polyjet material durability and costs are an issue but experience has shown that these issues can often be overcome in the AM industry with valid and innovative applications.

Who wouldn’t want a life-size 3D printed Jabba in their living room? Marketing and Content

Who has never dreamed of having a life-size 3D printed Jabba the Hut in their living room? When affordable 3D printers became a reality, they made it possible for these highly personalized “dreams” to come true. In what is certainly an effective promotional campaign, the YouTube channel Mighty Jabba’s Collection created a life-size replica of the popular gangster from the Star Wars Universe.
