I have some spools with cables lying around on my working desk. so i printed 2 spool holders on my makerbot to tidy things up a bit.
downlaod the openscad file or the stl file to print them.

My boss asked me to clone myself several times, so i started by making a little 3d figure in blender and printed it on my Makerbot. Not quite a clone of me, but every journey begins with a first step :-)

Recently some very awsome cookiecutter-designs started to show up on thingiverse (like the escher cookie cutter or the jigsaw cookie cutter, and many more) (and one of the local radiostations has played "last cristmas", because it's only 6 months till x-mas O_o )
So i thought about how the generation of such custom cookie cutters could be simplified and i developed a custom cookie cutter generator in processing.

Basically it's a very very simple vector graphic programm, where you can design the cookie form you want to have. to export the design as a stl file press the letter 'e'
this is my day 26 project for 30daysofcreativity
This is what the cookie-cutter-editor looks like
This is what the generated stl file looks like
And this is what the printed cookie-cutter looks like (still have to fiddle around with my skeinforge settings a bit)

I transformed my gekko from a pencildrawing to a real physical object. I converted the drawing into a 3D object using blender and then printed it on my makerbot. This is my Day 20 project for 30daysofcreativity

Today i printed some interlocked rings on my makerbot. I used openscad to generate the stl file. The two rings are standing in an angle of 60 degrees and don't touch each other

A friend of mine is currently renovating his VW-Oldtimer. For one of the windows two little plastic parts are needed, but he could only get one :-/
so i designed a replacement part in openscad and printed it on the makerbot
there is the stl and the openscad file

Last Friday I got 20 little cacti, but I had no matching pot saucers. So i started my 3d Printer and made some.

Back in the old days, when I was a basic hacking teenager, the state of the art technique for getting awsome 3D Graphics on the atari-screen was rendering triangles based on a grayscale bitmap - aka heightfield.
I reanimated this knowledge to generate a 3D object from such a heightfield. so in fact this blog article shows how to take something like this
and turn it into something like this.
