3DBenchy is a computer model of a small boat designed specifically for benchmark testing the accuracy and capabilities of 3D printers. And Youtuber Emily The Engineer decided to try 3D printing one large enough for a person to sit in, and, ideally, function as an actual boat. The final result
This is a video from creator Marques Brownlee, highlighting his visit to New Jersey based 3D Pets, which specializes in fabricating 3D printed prosthetics for pets. In the video, former stray Chloe is fitted with a new front leg after losing hers to the rough streets of Oklahoma. Cleo is
This is a very worthwhile video of Australian TikToker Dazza’s quest to 3D print the perfect home for a green tree frog that was living in a fence pole on his property. He starts with a basic home model that fits on top of the pole, before replacing it with
Available as a 3D printable file from JBV Creative, this sine wave machine features marbles that roll in a sine wave as the machine is cranked. Hate cranking? Get creative and add a motor. Or a car engine! JBV also sells the file for a wave machine that’s only 8
Built by inventive digital clock creator Hans Andersson, the Time Twister 5 is a digital time display that rotates its Rubik’s Cube (or Rubik’s Triangular Prism in this case) style pieces to change the time. Would I be proud to display this in my living room? Yes. Of course I’d
This is a video of engineer and tinkerer JBV Creative constructing ‘The Corporate Machine’, a piece of kinetic wall art for his apartment that represents the tireless churning of big business. Using 99% 3D-printed parts, the machine launches ping-pong balls and catches them, repeating the process indefinitely until a power
The brainchild of engineer Ekaggrat Singh Kalsi, this is an analog clock created in the style of an LCD digital clock. Taking the flip clock to a whole new level, it raises and lowers its number segments using a cleverly designed series of cams and levers operated by a controller
This is a video of South Korean Youtuber 3D Sanago using a 3D printing pen to craft an impressive Blastoise figure, then adding all the necessary components to make it a functional humidifier. That’s cool. Now make me a showerhead that looks like Magikarp! That’s always been a dream of
