3Dio by 2nd Dynasty
3Dio is the must have 3D printing helper. Plan out and get print lists and assemble for your next game!
This tool is also perfect for 2ND Dynasty 3D printable spaceships with hundreds of individual 3D model files. With so many parts it can be difficult keeping track or customizing your own ship. 3Dio will help you along the way and includes 3d animated build instructions that let you pause and hover items to get what the parts are. Plus the File>Export command automatically moves the STL files to a ready to prep folder.
Type S ship from 2ND DynastyVisualize your print builds and plan with both 2ND Dynasty and other STL models.
- Easy-to-use animated build instructions for ships
- Plan out your own ship
- Import your own STL models with easy snapping helpers for open lock.
3Dio is NOT a slicer or 3D modelling program. It takes existing models and creates print lists you can use as a guide for printing.
Built in are hundreds of STL files grouped into bundles, some bundles have various ships, and some are still in progress. Refer to the table below to learn if your favorite items are available.
| Bundle | Sample Levels | Animated Instructions |
| Scout Ship Beta Centauri | 1 | ✔ |

3Dio is still in Development
Currently, many aspects of the interface are still in flux.
We appreciate feedback and are still working on this software. Right now, it works best with bundles downloadable inside the program.
All versions require the internet to download bundles, but will happily work offline for as long as you need.
Mac has a known bug that prevents it from launching. Here is the work around:
- Download and install the itch app: https://itch.io/app
- Open and use it to launch 3Dio.

Makerbot to the production of 3D printers
Until recently, in 2013, the legendary company Makerbot bathed in the rays of Glory and rested on the laurels. With the successful Replicator 2 3D printer on hand and a growing stream of orders, MakerBot opened its own factory in Brooklyn. Then disaster struck: the scandal with the raw fifth generation seriously tarnished the company's reputation, and its founder, Bree Pettis, moved to Stratasys, and then completely left the big stage.
MakerBot began reshuffles and mass layoffs. Now the company has broken another bottom, announcing the cessation of production of "replicators" in New York. nine0003
Like a true manager, MakerBot CEO Jonathan Jaglom keeps a good face on a bad game. The 3D printers will be manufactured by the international company Jabil Circuit, which provides contract manufacturing services for electronics. According to Jaglom, “Working with Jabil will enable us to better position ourselves in a rapidly changing marketplace and reduce production costs in order to become more competitive on the global stage. We expect that a more flexible manufacturing model will allow us to quickly change production volumes based on current demand and without the constant costs of running a factory in New York.” nine0003
In simple terms, this means that MakerBot is shutting down facilities in an area of 20,000 square meters. meters and transfers production abroad - where exactly, you have to choose Jabil.
Most likely to China or Malaysia. For the company's employees, this means another wave of mass layoffs, but apparently, MakerBot has no other choice. Despite the company's claims of commitment to the "Brooklyn culture", localized production can not afford it, and the company somehow needs to be saved. At least, there should be no problems with production in China, because craftsmen from the Celestial Empire have been successfully stamping clones of "replicators" for so long and successfully. nine0003
In the best imperial tradition
Polymaker has come up with a great demonstration of what Polysher can do, a 3D printed aerosol smoothing machine. To do this, the developers invited an artist named Tian Tian. The object of the demonstration was a 3D printed vase processed with Polysher and hand painted by the artist in the style of the Qin Dynasty.
School of Design and Digital Arts at Shanghai Aurora College. The artist has a particular fondness for antique vases.
The vases of the Qin Dynasty date back to the 13th century, and the delicate decorations were created with careful strokes of a fine brush. The smoothness of the vessels is of great importance, since any irregularities can distort the movement of the brush and ruin the drawing. Of course, in the case of raw 3D printed models, layering leads to just such difficulties, but after smoothing the vase in Polysher, the artist managed to achieve the desired result. nine0003
What's more, Tian Tian liked the idea of creating art with 3D printing: "When I decorate a vase created by another designer, there always comes a point where I can't fully express myself in the drawing." Very Zen, Tian. However, the popularity of Polysher is also ensured in the Russian market. Read more about Polysher here.
With the breeze and without the cortege
Holland is remarkable not only for its love of bicycles and 3D printing, but also for the fact that all segments of society are exposed to this love.
So Economics Minister Henk Kamp could not resist the opportunity to ride a 3D printed bike. A two-wheeler called Arc Bicycle was printed by a team of students from the Delft University of Technology with the help of technical experts from MX3D. nine0003
The run-in took place during the Innovation Expo in Amsterdam, where more than two hundred innovations were showcased. More than 4,000 entrepreneurs and academics, as well as about 70 ministers from all over the European Union, came to the exhibition. MX3D, a start-up that builds the world's first 3D printed bridge and, at its leisure, helps students make bicycles with its 3D printed welder robot, was also featured.
The bike weighs about the same as a regular steel frame version. “It was important for us to create a functional object that people use on a daily basis. Since we are students in the Netherlands, the idea of a 3D printed bicycle came to our minds. The bike frame serves as a good demonstrator due to multidirectional loads,” explains one of the designers, Stef de Groot.
Someone who, but Minister Kamp appreciated the project at its true worth. As for MX3D, their project to 3D print a canal bridge in the center of Amsterdam is due to be completed in 2017. nine0003
REC takes Europe by storm
The Russian company REC signed an agreement to supply consumables to the German retailer iGo3D. The agreement was reached at the Hannover Messe industrial fair taking place these days. This time we are talking about 20 tons of branded filament, which is very popular in the domestic market.
“Due to the popularity of the brand and the high quality of the products, demand is growing rapidly. Today, together with German partners, we are signing an agreement for the supply of our products. This contract and the growth of the market as a whole will allow our company to expand production and increase its share in the European market,” commented Nikita Gavrilov, CEO of REC.

labor-intensive process with a rather high rejection rate, but its efficiency can be improved with the help of 3D printing technologies. We share an example.
Chinese porcelain is known throughout the world for its beauty, and elegant Song Dynasty style ceramics made in "official" kilns are especially prized. The first such ovens were personally designed and financed by Emperor Zhao Ji of Song, who himself was fond of art and was known as a good artist, musician, calligrapher and master of the tea ceremony.
Today, porcelain is made by several classical and modern methods, including hand and potter's wheel molding, casting and semi-automatic molding. Chinese ceramic artist Xiao Heqing went even further and introduced 3D printing technology into the process of making porcelain from Song Dynasty kilns. nine0003
The use of 3D printing is intended to simplify somewhat the complex process at the pen stage - mold making.
Hollow porcelain products are often made by casting: slip, that is, liquid porcelain mass, is poured into a plaster mold, then the workpiece is removed and, after drying, sent for firing, and then covered with glaze and painting. The quality of the blanks directly depends on the quality of the slip and the accuracy of the molds, so the first stage plays a key role.
Plaster molds are removed from the master models, and the models themselves are traditionally made from clay or plasticine. Such models are not durable, so you need to work with them carefully, especially since the manufacture of a master model is a very laborious process, usually done manually. This is where digital design and 3D printing technologies come in handy.

In the new process, master models are first digitally created using CAD systems and then printed with photopolymer resin on a SHINING 3D AccuFab-L4K stereolithographic 3D printer.
