Maker Faire 2012 - part 3.



Shapeways and Cubify continue to be my 3D printing platform of choice. They have the best finished and professional looking product. However, there were a lot more companies this year. And at least one company might move up to the top spot. But I don't have room in this post.

There were so many new players this year, that I'm starting to believe this is going to be a real technology sector.

Shapeways also prints incredibly delicate stuff that moves and is multicolor.





The Cubify van was there. Which I think appeals to your pre-teen market. And girls. It's the best looking 3D printer.

  1. Love these, just wondering how much the print rights are going to be once they are more available.

  4. It's a good question. I know Staples has a service (or will have), but I haven't checked it out. It will be interesting to see how that works out when the big players get involved.
