Designer HackMan3D’s recently released (open source) Orbit controller offers six degrees of freedom panning and moving your work in 3D applications – think CAD, 3D modelling, the slicer for your 3d printer. It’s fully DIY with a printed housing, and uses inexpensive hall effect joysticks, mechanical keyboard key switches, all controlled with an Arduino Pro Micro. Files available on CrealityCloud and Makerworld, full BOM, firmware, and instructions on GitHub.

New for Bambu Lab's first-gen CoreXY machines, E3D now offers Bastion Coated Gears – a £45 (~$60) drop-in replacement for the X1C, X1E, P1S and P1P 3D printers. The main draw is a diamond-like carbon coating on the drive gears and hobbs that's hard-wearing and self-lubricating, E3D says.
Colorway completionists won't be able to pair them with the purple high-flow ObXiDian 500 nozzles – only the newer Bambu Lab machines get those – but as a standalone upgrade for your long-running X1C, X1E, P1P, or P1S, it's likely a fine and funky addition all the same.
