VickyTGAW shares:

My family loves Pokémon Go, so we just had to have the game represented in the coming holiday seasons. I made this PokeStop Ornament in OpenSCAD and printed it in ColorFabb PLA/PHA (Sky Blue). This ornament won’t deliver potions or Pokeballs, but it will spin just like the real thing!

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!

Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!

The Adafruit Learning System has dozens of great tools to get you well on your way to creating incredible works of engineering, interactive art, and design with your 3D printer! If you’ve made a cool project that combines 3D printing and electronics, be sure to let us know, and we’ll feature it here!

Apple Lightning Mini Dock for Charging and Listening to Music #3DThursday #3DPrinting

bplutka shares:

Here is my tiny Lightning Dock. You have to buy one of those iPhone 5C Docking Stations with Lightning Input and Lightning/3,5 Jack Output. Those fake ones of ebay won’t work.
At the moment (here in Germany) you can get them online for around 2$. Amazon sells them as a “Plus Product” for around 5$.
Be careful, as the original dock only has a Line Out port, the volume cannot be controlled by the headphones or iOS.

NEW PRODUCT – Raspberry Pi Foundation Starter Kit with Pi 3


To celebrate the sale of their ten millionth Raspberry Pi, the Raspberry Pi Foundation for the first time has put together their own idea of what the perfect bundle would look like, creating the official Raspberry Pi Starter Kit.

This kit provides you with a keyboard, mouse, power supply, Pi enclosure, HDMI cable, and an SD card with the necessary operating system out of which you can operate. Great for setting you on the path to building your own computer — all you’d need to wrap it up is an HDMI monitor or television!

Kit includes:

  • A Raspberry Pi 3 Model B
  • An 8GB NOOBS SD card
  • An official case
  • An official 2.5A multi-region power supply
  • An official 1m HDMI cable
  • An optical mouse and a keyboard with high-quality scissor-switch action
  • A copy of Adventures in Raspberry Pi Foundation Edition

Iron Man Hulkbuster Cosplay and Movement Test

hulkbuster-armor-1

Superhero Forge is a team of costume and prop builders that strive to create movie quality results. When you’re working on large costumes with several pieces — especially pieces that need to move well and pieces that utilize electronics — it’s easy to see how having a team would help. Different members could oversee different aspects for screen accuracy. Regardless of how they work, Superhero Forge does an excellent job with making superhero costumes seen in films, and they recently crafted an impressive set of Hulkbuster armor from The Avengers: Age of Ultron.

The armor started as pieces of black EVA foam and was carefully painted and finished. It features LEDs and has a greater range of movement than I expected. You can watch the movement test on Facebook.

Microfluidic channels #3DThursday #3DPrinting

microfluid

Anthromod shares:

This is a simple test I ran on my Form 2 printer to see if it was possible to print a micro/millifluidic system. I wanted to try out several geometries to see if a) they could be printed and b) if they offered any advantage. I’m particularly interested in a channel with a twisted 3 dimensional structure, that simulates natural capillaries, is beneficial when moving cells around the system.
I’m happy to state that at least the first stage worked and all channels could be printed, cleaned out, and allow liquid to flow through them. Cell studies will have to wait until later.
