We just published a deep-dive article covering our visit to the CU Riviera Racing team at Cambridge University. Compilation: A selection of 3D printed components used in the student-built boat, including structural clamps, steering elements, throttle casing, and a custom housing for the dashboard screen. This student team is building a zero-emissions boat and actively prototyping functional parts using Snapmaker 3D printers and digital tools. From steering brackets to dashboard casings — it’s amazing to see 3D printing used in real-world testing on water 🚤 📄 Read the full article here: https://3dwithus.com/cambridge-university-riviera-racing-prototyping-testing-goals Have you worked on or seen similar student or marine projects involving 3D printing?

We’ve just received the Revopoint Trackit - their latest optical tracking 3D scanner, now live on Kickstarter. Unboxing and testing coming soon… but first, here’s the launch article with all the key specs and early impressions: 👉 Launch Article >> 👉 Kickstarter Campaign >> Anyone backing this one or planning to? Scanning requests? Let’s discuss below!

Just published a new feature article after visiting a local RC model boat club during their open day. I had the chance to steer a tugboat, chat with passionate makers, and explore how traditional craftsmanship and 3D printing can come together in this fascinating hobby. 🔗 Read the full post here: 👉 RC Model Boats: Traditional and 3D Printed – Full Article Here’s the YouTube Short from my visit: 📺 https://www.youtube.com/shorts/biaxNoD-KlE Have you tried 3D printing parts for RC boats or other remote-controlled projects? Share your builds or ideas below! P.S. Please let me know if you think it’s a good idea to have a dedicated RC section on this forum.

🚀 Update – Full Review Now Live! The full hands-on review of the SUNLU FilaDryer SP2 is now published on our main site: 👉 Read the full article here Image: SUNLU FilaDryer E2 and SP2 in Comparison We go into detail about performance, modular design, noise levels, etc. Here is a short video with SP2 in Action, Including Thermal Camera View. Feel free to continue the discussion here - share your own experiences, ask questions, or post photos of your setup!

Printed the first two parts in Inslogic3D PA6-CF - came out great on the Creality K2 Plus. Hardened steel tip nozzle handled it well. Now I just hope I don’t get disqualified for the filament choice! Mainframe and framecover parts for DeathRacer…

Has anyone here tried the Hoopat Quick Release Resin Vat from Chitu Systems? I requested one to test it out specifically on the Elegoo Saturn 2, and it has arrived! The unboxing was OK - I love the build quality at first glance. Curious to see how it performs in terms of cleanup and quick swaps. Let me know if you’ve already tested it, or if you have any questions before I run it through some prints. The full article is coming soon. Here is the link to the product.

The eufyMake E1 is here! This machine blends UV color printing with 3D texturing, carving out a category of its own. For now, we’ll keep it under the 3D Printing umbrella, but it definitely pushes the boundaries. Check out our full article here: https://3dwithus.com/eufymake-e1-3d-textured-uv-printer Share your thoughts and makes - if there's enough interest, we'll launch a new subforum to cover this emerging technology.

Exciting delivery today! The SUNLU FilaDryer SP2 just arrived, but the unboxing has been temporarily delayed... our in-house "border control officer" insists on a thorough inspection first. 🐶📦🐾 Looking forward to sharing more soon once we get it set up and tested! Stay tuned for first impressions and drying tests.

After seeing all the fun DeathRacer competitions organized by @TheRealSamPrentice at RepRap festivals, I couldn’t hold back any longer — I had to get a kit myself! From BIQU Shop. This thread will follow my first impressions, build process, and testing, and who knows — maybe even participation at an upcoming event like SMRRF! 🤞 DeathRacers, Pilots and Spectators at SMRRF2023 Stay tuned for: 📦 Kit unboxing 🛠️ Assembly experience 🎮 Test runs & tuning 🏁 Event-ready (or not 😅) Feel free to drop your own tips, questions, or DeathRacer setups below 👇

That’s a lot of engineering-grade filament to test. With the Creality K2 Plus, Snapmaker Artisan, and SUNLU E2, I think I’m well equipped. 👨‍🏭 It’s Engineering-grade filament: PA6-CF, PA12-CF, PC-ABS (white), Nylon PA6/66. I also have their popular materials such as TPU (black), PLA (matte Black), PETG (white), and ASA (black). If you'd like me to test anything specific, please let me know here in this thread. Check the availability of their filament on their official website.

Always wanted to try #3Dscanning with a large turntable. Revopoint offers one - with a max load of up to 200 kg. Phew… 😅 I don’t have to lose weight.
