All3DP Senior Editor Matt pits the Snapmaker U1, Flashforge Creator 5, Bambu Lab H2C, Prusa XL, and Prusa CORE One+ Gen2 with INDX against each other to find out which prints fastest, wastes the least filament, and which machine deserves your money. His full comparison review coming soon to All3DP. And before you comment on our lab: We've just moved into a new office. We're working on it. Don't judge.
We took the new Model Splitter for a spin and found it's the splitting tool we didn't know we needed. This browser-based tool makes cutting and adding custom seams incredibly simple.
Two weeks after a Texas jury found Bambu Lab infringed four Stratasys patents, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has dealt Stratasys a setback, finding claims in four of its patents unpatentable. The fight is far from over, but Bambu Lab is steadily chipping away at Stratasys’s case.
Mears' latest Velo3D investment signals a shift from qualification to production, adding dedicated copper-nickel capacity for marine parts traditionally made by casting.
offering up to 35% off filaments and accessories sitewide. Individual spools drop as low as $11.70 for Panchroma Basic PLA, but you can also pick up tougher blends like Fiberon ASA-CF08 for $13 a spool. It's only for a limited time, with many of the deals ending at midnight EST today.
Imagine a 3D printed aircraft part that sends of an alert well before a stress becomes a failure. That's genuinely useful. Researchers at the University of Glasgow and University of Sydney have developed conductive lattices that can map damage as it forms under stress, potentially giving maintenance crews an early warning. The goal: less “what broke?” and more “fix this now.”
Since All3DP last saw the RepRap Micron, it has gone from micron-precision proof-of-concept patterns to a much more complete 3D-printing workflow: redesigned kinematics, new resin chemistry, micron-scale layers, sliced toolpaths, multi-layer structures, and now its first recognizable 3DBenchy.
These free add-ons help bridge one of the biggest gaps in AI models: getting from a good-looking AI model to clean, watertight geometry your slicer can 3D print.

If you're a Cura slicer enthusiast, learn to how to translate PETG printing principles into practical slicer settings.
judging by the response to last week's poll. That's incredible to see, and we'll work on a way of doing a proper survey of all the specific machines you've all operated over the years. My first contact with a 3D printer was a Monoprice Select Mini, which didn't print particularly well and died after a fruitless Christmas spent trying to print ornaments and decorations. I had much greater success with a Wanhao Duplicator 6 afterwards.
