February 27th - via: singularityhub.com
Five days after launch on Kickstarter, the 3Doodler 3D printing pen boasted over 21,000 backers and $1.9 million in pledges. Their goal was $30,000! What’s so special about the 3Doodler?

3Doodler, the 3D Printing Pen!

February 27th - via: minidigita.com
By now, many of us all know what 3d printing is. It is a form of rapid prototyping using additive manufacturing (layer by layer). In order to use a 3d printer, you need to know how to use a 3d modeling program such as Autodesk Inventor, which is a complex program not usually used by the everyday people. There are websites such as Thingiverse that offer models to be submitted and used by users, but what if you just want to unleash your creativity and go freehand? Until now, that hasn’t been a possibility, but the 3Doodler has arrived at Kickstarter! (Read More)
