I recently picked up 3D printing as a hobby. It almost feels unreal to be able to print pretty much any object I want to.

FDM (fused deposition modeling) 3D printers, better known as filament 3D printers, come in a wide range of models, at a wide range of prices, with many different features. Whether you're new to 3D ...

So you have the filaments, but what can actually print them at the same time? Multi-material 3D printing is a tricky topic, and there’s a few different approaches that have been developed over the ...

Filament-based 3D printers are remarkably wasteful. If you buy a kilogram of filament from your favorite supplier, the odds are that it will come wrapped around a plastic spool weighing about 250 ...

It's looking more and more certain that 3D printing has a serious safety problem. Though largely overlooked in the tech press, the problem is pervasive and could impact millions of students, patients, ...

3D printers are advanced pieces of technology, but they certainly aren't without their quirks. Here's what users think of ...

Inexpensive 3D printers often have a problem called "warpage," in which objects printed by them tend to curl up as they harden. Now, however, scientists have harnessed the power of warpage to create ...
