What do you do when you have your Ultimaker, you start experimenting.
Taylor Alexander did some experiments and printed some very precise thin parts, rotor blades for his helicopter and they work perfectly. Whats next a bigger helicopter maybe?

Lots of people visited the 3D printing event during the Dutch Design Week in Eindhoven. A lot of Ultimaker operators printed and showed what they made. It was nice to meet you guys.

3D Design Competition

We will be present during the Dutch Design Week at the 3D printing event.

Specialy for the World MakerFaire we made Ultimakers in colors and an experimental Ultimaker +, build envelope 21x21x55cm. We took it to Time Square for a nice picture.
Visited a Makerbot party with the Ultimakers, great guys, they let us print beside the rows of TOM’s.

We will be at the World Maker Faire event in New York from september 17 to 18. Come and meet us at the 3D printer village. Beside some nice colored special edition Ultimakers there’s also a Ultimaker+ printing large parts.

[update]

The Ultimakers got through customs with little problems. Just a lot of delay. Guys in customs really liked the pink panther lady.

The bright minds at Metalab Vienna started playing with their Ultimaker and decided to crank some more speed out of the little machine. Well they succeeded, by writing using some new controlling software, Printrun, with modified “Sprinter” firmware on the Ultimaker. Watch these videos, you’ll be amazed.

3D printed open source design. Vases, bracelets, cups and so on. Made on demand, paid per minute…
Joris van Tubergen has a great concept, he prints his designs while you wait.
With a modified 0.8mm nozzle, he prints thick single walled objects, really fast, making it possible to wait for it.
If you’re in the neighbourhood you can visit Joris at Magna Plaza Amsterdam.
