    Challenges of the 3D Print Market

    Contemplating the many challenges of the 3D print design market, such as trying to appeal to a market that doesn’t even know 3D printing exists yet, or that they need or want 3D printed products. Is it the right move to gain investors, or wait the market out a bit more to when it has truly tipped? Should we go against our own advice of market proofing first?

    Are We Really Worried About Our Designs Being Stolen?

    In response to our episode with Hector from 3D Shook, Joseph, a long-time listener said he was really happy with Hector’s response to our question about being worried about his STL files being distributed unfairly or stolen essentially. Joseph said he feels that our crippling fear of people stealing our designs is hurting us and not helping the 3D printing industry either.

    Can You Capture Other Parts in Your 3D Prints?

    It’s Tech Tuesday, and today’s question is, “Is it possible to make a 3D print where you print part of it and put some other object of a different material into the middle of your print and keep printing over it? So you encapsulate it or capture something in your 3D print.” It brings up a lot of points of whether or not that part could be damaged or how it fits in there. or if you’re going to hurt your 3D printer if you do it. Will it get knocked? There are a lot of things to consider and we have some suggestions before you attempt it.

    Is Anyone Actually Selling Any 3D Printed Products?

    Long-time listener Eduardo Martini of Brazil recently posed yet another challenging question to us, “Is anybody actually selling anything in 3D printing? Not just giving it away, but selling?” While some designers are making money selling 3D printed products, the market and marketplaces for these designs might not be ready enough yet for you to quit your day job.

    Educational Project: Digital Sundial

    In this WTFFF?! Episode, Tom and Tracy have found a great educational project for teachers and students. There is a lot of potential here for creating it into a larger lesson plan about time, geography, and of course 3D printing and 3D design. What they are talking about is creating a digital sundial, a little ironic considering sundials are analog by nature. Mojoptix, the designer, has great videos to walk students through the creation of this free file.
