Strange Company
Anycubic and Thingiverse sign partnership agreement for deeper cooperation.

Thingiverse's model library of some 2-million models will be integrated with Anycubic's products in the future, starting with a bridge to Anycubic's MakerOnline repository. Part of the agreement will see select models from Thingiverse converted from STL to 3MF, shortening print setup time.

Thingiverse' relaunch towards open source hardware and the rejection of AI, and Anycubic being, well, largely not that suggest its more a move born from pragmatism than the ideology presented. In any case, this new bridge will directly expose models to potential printerers, which can't be a bad thing.

Your Prusa 3D Printer Can Finally Read OpenPrintTags – NFC Upgrade for Core One Series Printers Released

Released as a ~$20 upgrade, the OpenPrintTag NFC Upgrade sits between the spool and printer, reading tag's information, triggering automations, as well as writing material usage updates to the spool directly. And like the name suggests, it's open – it works with all your spools, Prusament or not.

Resin Without the Regret?
A resin printer that handles the messy part for you?

Uniformation’s S10 Kickstarter campaign looks to automate desktop resin printing. It's pitched as printing, washing and drying in one enclosed machine. After a print, the plate tilts to drain excess resin back into the vat, then moves through two automated wash cycles.

Optimistic punters will be rubbing their resin-covered hands together at the prospect. Still, a voice in the back of the head asks whether this is too good to be true. Curing still needs a separate module sold on its own, hollow prints may need a manual rinse, and there's no published wash or dry times yet.

It looks like Elegoo is getting ready to launch a 3D scanner soon.

A teaser for the new device, called the M1 Ultra, appeared today. Details are thin, but so far we know it's a compact, handheld form with touchscreen operation and can process scans locally. Beyond this, the object volume range is 5 to 4,000 mm³, putting it in that versatile mixed-range space alongside scanners like the Revopoint Miraco, and that it can capture color data, too. The release will put Elegoo in company with Creality and, also soon, Bambu Lab as 3D printing manufacturers with complementary scanning tech.
