I designed and printed a robo necklace
if you want to print one yourself, download the stl file or fetch the openscad and the dxf file. then stick on some moving eyes

I just printed the first stl file that i generated using a processing sketch.
I used the unlekkerlib to export a stl file from a sketch that generates simple 3d spiral, used blender to add a socket and printed it on my makerbot. Skeinforge complained about some invalid triangles, but beside that it worked surprisingly well.
This is what it looks like in blender
and this is what the makerbot made of it
and this is the processing-sketch i used to generated the spiral
import unlekker.data.*;
void setup() {
size(300,300,P3D);
noLoop();
}
void draw() {
translate(width/2,height/2);
background(0);
fill(255);
lights();
noStroke();
//stroke(255);
beginRaw("unlekker.data.STL","guru.stl");
beginShape(QUAD_STRIP);
for( int i =0; i < 100; i++ ) {
for(int a=0; a < 36; a++) {
float r = 10 - map(i,0,100,0,10);
vertex( r * sin( radians( a * 10 )) + sin(radians(i*10)) * 10,
-i*1,
r * cos(radians(a*10)) + cos(radians(i*10)) * 10);
int j = i+1;
vertex( r * sin( radians( a * 10 )) + sin(radians(j*10)) * 10,
-j*1,
r * cos(radians(a*10)) + cos(radians(j*10)) * 10);
}
}
endShape();
endRaw();
}

I designed a simple stand for my phone unsing openscad. click here to download the stl file or click here for the openscad script

I just finished my Smiley-O-Mat - it's a tin-box with 3 turning knobs that allows you to controll the appearence of a smiley. With 3 simple turns I can now tell your co-workers, familymembers, ... how you feel at the moment and if it is wise to talk to me right now :-)
The controllerbox is made with an arduino, the smiley generator is written in processing, and the turning knobs are printed on my makerbot
This is what the controller looks like
and here are some smileys i generated

I printed some turning knobs that fit on my variable resistors. This time i used openscad to make the design.
here is the scad file and the stl file, if you want to print your own.

I just printed a pair of earrings for my wife.

I finished my MakerBot!
here is a picture of it

I continued building my makerbot
I made the X, Y and Z stage of the main body
and the two dinosaurs that hold the extruder (they are officially named "wired dinosaur" and "big dinosaur" - i really like that)

My MakerBot CupCake CNC Delux Kit arrived yesterday!
So far i managed to assemble the body of my cupcake
