3D Hubs Intern Creates Fusion E-Board for Work Commute AM Software

by Design

When this student (Jack Davies) moved from the UK to Amsterdam to begin his internship at 3D Hubs he was looking to find a faster mode of transport to get to the office on a daily basis. Utilizing his design skills, knowledge of electronics and access to new 3D printing processes, such as HP‘s Multi Jet Fusion technology, he created a 3D printed electric skateboard that previously wouldn’t have been possible.

FF3DM 3D prints entire fleet of 1m long model ships AM Software

by Design

When I visit 3D printing events in China what seems very clear to me is that Chinese adopters use 3D printing a lot. They generally don’t ask all the questions that Europeans and Americans ask and they don’t spent too much time thinking about the issues and the limitations of the technology: they just use it. Hangzhou based 3D printing service FF3DM used it to 3D print a fleet of huge model ships.
