3D Printing a Hyperboloid
Trying out my new time-lapse rig, using a Creative Live! Socialize HD Webcam here is a hyperboloid pencil holder I found on the Thingiverse:
Just over 2.5 hours to print and surprisingly sturdy!

Earlier this month I went to Victoria for a conference and am just now getting around to posting some video from the trip. The floatplane flight from harbour to harbour was on a rainy and cold Sunday afternoon but I think the video turned out pretty decent despite the weather. Shot with my Kodak Zi6…
During the holidays, I came across a boxing day deal for the Eye-Fi Pro X2 8GB wireless SD card. I’ve written about these Eye-Fi cards before but this is a much newer version with some key differences that address the previous model’s shortcomings. These memory cards are unique in that in addition to being memory…
Last year I was able to check out Kodak’s first foray into the handheld HD camera arena when they lent me a Zi6 for a month. When I sent it back, I immediately picked one up as soon as they were available locally. While not perfect, it was a great little camera for my purposes….
I’ve had my Nexus 7 for just over a week now and I’ve got to say, it’s the best Android tablet experience I’ve used yet. My most recent Android tablet was the Asus Transformer Prime (which I returned because of lackluster performance). The Nexus 7 comes with Android 4.1 (aka “Jellybean”) which furthers my opinion…

See if you can find a Bucky Ball to print – that would be pretty cool.
Nah…that’s too easy….I’m currently printing my own LHC.
Just out of curiousity, how much do the materials cost to make a model like that?
I didn’t pay attention to the stats when I printed it but is likely $0.25-$0.75 including power, plastic, etc.
A little while ago, the folks at MakerBot posted some estimated costs of 3D printing which is pretty interesting.
Thank you! That’s not bad at all actually
