Woot at CES: 3D Printing with the Replicator from MakerBot Industries


Matt Griffin of MakerBot Industries talks to Woot about MakerBot’s brand-new 3D printer, “the Replicator.” It was just a day or two old at the time of filming, but already churning out custom prototypes and parts where once were only notions, fancies, and a big spool of plastic filament.

Beginning Google Sketchup for 3D Printing

Product Description

The age of 3D printing and personal fabrication is uponus! You’ve probably heard of the incredibly sophisticated but inexpensive 3Dprinters that can produce almost any creation you give them. But how do youbecome part of that revolution?

Sandeep Singh takes you through the skills you need tolearn and the services and technologies you need to know—explaining what 3Dprinting is, how it works, and what it can do for you. You’ll find yourselfrapidly prototyping and learning to produce complex designs that can befabricated by online 3D printing services or privately owned 3D printers and inyour hands in no time.

Beginning GoogleSketchUp for 3D Printing starts by explaining how to use SketchUp and itsplug-ins to make your design products. You will learn how to present andanimate 3D models, and how to use Google Earth and 3D Warehouse to sell andmarket your 3D models. You’ll also get a vision of the future of 3D printing soyou can plan your future projects while mastering today’s tools.

          3-D Printing Could Ease Strains of Global Population

          Product Description
          Having reached 7 billion today, the trajectory of global population growth will proceed somewhat more slowly toward our eighth billion. Even with such a plateau-ing, the growth of the world’s middle class will raise living standards in emerging economies. That may seem like a Malthusian scenario, but the future global middle-class’ standard of living might not require Western consumption levels.Product Description

          RapMan – Rapid Prototyping Printer


          This is an exciting time to be working in Design and Technology lessons at the moment. We have purchased a new machine that will revolutionize the way students design and manufacture products in the future. The RapMan 3.1 Rapid Prototyping machine can bring 3D models and CAD (Computer Aided Design) drawings to life. Students can design an object using Solidworks or Google Sketchup, then have the RapMan 3.1 manufacture it out of ABS.
