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!

For the past couple of weeks I’ve been doing a live ‘Tech Tuesday’ segment on Vancouver’s News 1130 radio station. It’s a weekly spot where I’ll round up what’s going on in the tech world. I even did one live from Austin during SXSW. It airs Tuesdays at 11:05am PST and portions repeated throughout the…
My friends (and co-makers from MakerFaire as well as co-founders of the 3D604 group) at Tinkerine Studios have finally launched the crowdfunding campaign for their awesome Ditto 3d printer over at Indigogo: This marks the third unique 3d printer design to come out of our local club (Derek’s Citadel Mendel was the first, followed by…
It’s been a few weeks since my last build update so I figured it might be good time to post some updates on all the printers I’ve got on the go at the moment. Prusa Mendel I’ve been tweaking my Prusa quite a bit lately and have been getting really good results as you can…

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
