Bola de Natal. E cópias sem fim (!), Estlcam, para toda a CNC, às curvas com a Fresa, Thangs com tudo, Moldes com pistolas de cola, e Ovos!






Podem imprimir esta simpática bola de Natal, com o Presépio, para pendurar na Àrvore de Natal, obra deste vosso amigo, juntamente com muitos outros:


















Para replicarem objectos sem fim, têem esta fenomenal técnica, e depois de criarem o DMolde, podem até usar a placa da Impressora 3G, só ela, não o extrusor, claro, para aquecer as placas de plástico para termo-formação:

3D Printing Molds For Thermoforming Short Runs: Quick, Easy, and Inexpensive
 
Businesses call owners of Massivit 3D printing solutions to bring their most creative ideas to life. Now they can call when they need multiple copies of displays, signs, or props.

Massivit 3D makes short run molds for thermoforming possible—and even profitable.

Thermoforming is a cost-effective process when you need multiple copies of the same product. Take a mold, place a thermoplastic sheet on top, add heat and a vacuum and voilà! The sheet takes the form of the mold. Lather, rinse, repeat until enough copies are created.

Ponham as vossas criações, 2D ou 3D, neste programa, Esticam, e ele deita cá para fora o G-code nessessário para os 2 casos...
É bom!







CAM Lite
ALL3DP

Estlcam is a computer-aided manufacturing (CAM)  program that allows users to turn 2D drawings and 3D models into machine-readable G-code. This brilliant project was created by Christian Knüll, and its popularity has skyrocketed since it debuted in 2014. Perhaps the most attractive characteristics of Estlcam are its simplicity and low price.

If you’re a beginner in CNC milling, you’ve probably been frustrated by the complexity (and ungodly prices) of many CAM programs. Estlcam solves these frustrations by presenting users with an extremely intuitive user interface at a price of around $60.

The program sticks to the basics. Simply import a 3D file (such as an STL) or a 2D file (such as .dxf, .svg, .png, .gif, or .jpg), generate toolpaths, export the G-code – which is referred to as a “CNC program” in Estlcam – and start cutting. In this article, we’ll guide you through Estlcam’s basic features and provide tips on settings along the way.

The Secret to a Perfect Hot Glue Mold
SophieBdoesart

I've been making molds for a while now, but I often found myself frustrated by the high costs of materials. I love the quality that silicone molds like Smooth-On give, but I wanted to find a cheaper alternative for small casts. Hot glue was the obvious choice for me because of its price, its flexibility, and its incredibly quick cure time. The one major problem with hot glue is that it sticks to almost everything. I needed to find a mold release that would fill any small pores in the positive, allow the object to de-mold easily, and be as inexpensive and readily available as hot glue to avoid defeating the purpose. I tried everything. Oil, petroleum jelly, even some Smooth-On mold release as a test but none of them worked well enough to not damage the molds when I removed the object. I didn't figure it out until we had a power outage and I was digging through my collection of scented candles. The liquidy, melted wax was perfect for coating objects. Hot glue doesn't stick to it but it goes on thin enough to not obscure the details of the mold. Here's how I finally got the perfect hot-glue mold:

Branded and commercial incubators can be expensive for DIYers. A homemade incubator, on the other hand, can also hatch eggs successfully, and you don’t need to spend a lot of money on it.
