Empty spools from 3D printer filament are the kind of thing that begs to be repurposed, and one option is [3d-printy]’s vertical filament spool parts drawer design. The way this solution works is by ...

Most 3D printer filament soaks up water from the air, and when it does, the water passing through the extruder nozzle can expand, bubble, and pop, causing all kinds of mayhem and unwanted effects in ...

Plastic waste is a big problem in our world today. It's important for makers who use 3D printing technology (which generates plastic objects) to consider the waste hierarchy paradigm. Here's the thing ...

If you have a 3D printer already, do a Google search for press brake tooling, punches, or dies, and include STEP or STL files ...

Over time 3D printing filament can degrade due to contact with the moisture in the air so keeping it sealed in air air containers is paramount, especially for more expensive 3D printing filament.

Additionally, with a few experimental exceptions, all of the polymer filament on one spool is usually all one color. This means that if someone wants to 3D-print a single object that is different ...
