Whether they’re designing hyper-modern light fixtures or reproducing human tissues, startups all over the world are using 3D printing as a foundation for building innovative businesses. Continued here: 10 Amazing 3D-Printing Startups view
Content Sponsored by Braun We recently had the chance to chat with designer Naoto Fukasawa and IDEO’s Jane Fulton Suri, who served on the jury for last year’s Braunprize selections .
We’re reading a post on BlogTO, a publication focused on events in Toronto, which talks about the sudden popularity of 3D printing in that city.
Apparently some 40% of 3D printer installations are in the United States, while other countries lag significantly behind. China is positioned at only 9% despite being the world’s leader in manufacturing.
In a recent announcement, Optomec, a world leader in Additive Manufacturing Systems, has introduced a new method for 3D printing antennas directly onto injection molded plastics. Today a majority of the globe is within reach of a mobile device. Although the make and design of these devices may be different they’re all unified by a few key components, chief among them is the antenna.

As the world’s first 3D-printed handgun starts to be replicated , authorities are scrambling to react to a technological advancement that only a few weeks ago sounded more like science fiction than fact.. But according to a leaked bulletin by the Department of Homeland Security, any effort to stop the printing of these guns might be in vain.
3D printing will change the world. Learn about the science and technology that makes 3D printing work, how 3D printing is used and what the future holds. Read the rest here: 3D Printing: What a 3D Printer Is and How It Works
Just a couple of weeks after Cody Wilson and Defense Distributed released the files for the world’s first 3D-printed handgun , imitators have already replicated and improved upon it. Two gunsmiths from Wisconsin successfully fired their own Liberator nine times, without the gun showing any damage. As first reported by Forbes , two engineers, Michael Guslick and a man who refers to himself as “Joe” — he didn’t want to reveal his name — printed their version of the Liberator on a relatively cheap and unsophisticated 3D printer
