Panorama de Clichês de impressão 3d: Fantasias para festas de Halloween

Este texto foi traduzido de uma fonte em inglês então não espere muita qualidade.  Aí vem aquela assombrada época do ano. Quinta-feira à noite e você está sozinho de novo comtemplando a possibilidade de entrar em sites escuso, porque você não aproveita a época festiva de Halloween e tenta achar uma festa a fantasia no fim de semana? As cachaçadas e confusões consequentes com certeza renderão boas histórias, mas e a $%!$! da fantasia?

Se você apareceu neste blog sem ser convidado provavelmente está sendo atraído pelo grande número de palavras do google trend, se você realmente está atrás de fantasias vou te dar um conselho de sogra:

Se você for como eu, e sempre tenta resolver seus problemas criando uma série de outros problemas... então aqui vai a minha solução, ou problema... er.... Vamos chamar de solução! Você vai imprimir sua fantasia em 3D! Nada mais prático certo sogra?

Em vez de ir no próximo quarteirão resolver o assunto de uma vez você pode: Comprar a impressora 3d, os materiais de impressão, baixar os modelos e então imprimir sua própria fantasia, simples não?

Sim! E para reforçar o sim:

Isso mesmo MR.T porque não tenho uma foto da sua velha.

Desde que as pessoas começaram a imprimir em 3d surgiram grandes possibilidades de criarem itens e roupas customizadas, e com isso surgiram terríveis quantidades de entusiastas de anime gastando salários inteiros para fazerem aquelas fantasias ridículas de cosplay que provavelmente vão deixar o
umbigo deles aparecendo do lado de fora Pelo lado bom temos mais fotos de mulheres com pouca
roupa na internet, mas não só isso, com ela veio o fenômeno de blogs de impressão 3d que viraram
verdadeiras fabricas de modelos.

Com ajuda delas você pode baixar facilmente esses modelos pelo seu computador e deixar o software da impressora 3D fazer a mágica, você pode fazer isso até com impressoras tradicionais com papel
dobrado:

O ponto é, se você não achou uma fantasia que você goste você pode imprimir uma.

Uma fonte interessante desses modelos é a página 3Dprint.com.

De lá você consegue muitos modelos de mascaras, fantasias e outros. Eles também estão fazendo um concurso da melhor fantasia de halloween imprimida em 3d, quem sabe não aparece a cara do Donald Trump ai pelo Brasil, ou então uma destes artistas que estão sempre metidos em um escândalos sexuais, ou até do Darth Vader(essa última citação é pra atrair cliques).

Então, em vez de ficar gastando seu tempo fazendo uma confusão cortando caras em aboboras ( para o hallowen ou não :O), arriscando um ataque cardíaco fulminante por pivetes tentando imitar o trick-or-treat, porque você não vai para aquela loja de eletrônicos bem afastada em que talvez tenha uma impressora 3D ( Aham no brasil... só se  for tabajara) e nunca mias gaste seu dinheiro em fantasias
novamente. Agora você só tem que gastar com material de impressão, que se tiver no brasil, é 10 x mais caro que a roupa.

Eu gostaria de te dar mais uns sites para você procurar umas fantasias, mas você sabe usar o google né?

3D Printing Cliché Panorama: Halloween Costumes for Weekend Parties

Here comes that haunted time of the year again. It's Thursday night, you are almost ready for your big Halloween weekend parties and drunken horsing around when you realize a most crucial flaw in your plan: You forgot about a costume.

If you ended up on this blog, you were either directed by the huge amount of cliché words brought up from google trends or you are asking yourself: How can I Halloween parteeee without a costume?

If you are like me and to try to resolve one problem you end up creating a chain of other problems, I have your solution, Or problem, Or..,  errrr… let’s call It a solution... You will 3D print your costume!!! There's nothing more practical!

Instead of going to the store on the next block, you can: Buy a 3D printer, the supplies, download the models and get your own unique costume, how simple and creative right?

Right! Here is Mr. T face of approval to you decision:

And you should Mr. T, you should.

Since people have started 3D printing they have seen the amazing possibilities of making their own customized props and outfits, leading to a terrible amount of anime enthusiasts wasting scarce resources on ridiculous cosplay costumes but also transformed many blogs in factories of cool 3d models.

You can easily download these to your computer and let a 3D printer software do the magic, hell you can even fold some papers from a regular printer like this kid:

 The point is, if you do not find a costume that you like you can create one.

One interesting source for Halloween ideas is 3Dprint.com.  From here you can get many different masks, costumes and other items. They also held a 3D printed Halloween costume contest.  Maybe it will feature the face of the Republican debate star Donald Trump, your favorite sex scandal suspect World Series player or even your own Darth Vader mask from Star Wars (yes this is in the top google trends).

So instead of wasting your time making a mess of your house with pumpkin carving, risking a sudden heart attack in a haunted house or facing the diabolic middle school children pulling up trick-or-treats, go to that really far away electronics store that might have a 3D printer and never spend your money on costumes again. Just on the very expensive material used for printing!

I would give you some more sites but I do not want to spoil your fun when searching them by yourself on google! Good luck!

потенциал 3д принтера

10 лет назад никто не знал о 3д принтинге. Сегодня мы можем произвести все что

вообразим с помощью этой технологии. Более того данная технология постоянно 

развивается. И самое важное что стоимость 3 д принтинга значительно уменьшилась в 

последнее года. Мы уже видели что с помощью данной технологии моно построить даже 

дом. Ранее стоимость такого дома была заоблачной но не теперь. Самая дешёвая модель 

3 д принтера который может построить дом стоит 13 тысяч долларов. 

Осознаете ли вы потенциал этой технологии? Со снижением цен применение 3 д принтеров почти безгранично. Компании могут купить принтер и сдавать его в аренду на 1 день или на любой другой строк. Какое же применение может иметь 3д принте в развивающихся странах? Что если вы можете пойти дальше чем просто строить дома? Что если строить дороги с помощью 3 д принетра? 
Согласно исследованиям мирового банка средняя стоимость 1 км дороги 1 млн долларов. 
Хотели ли бы вы что б ваше правительство направило эти деньги на другие отрасли или 
снизить налоги? Возможно британским налогоплательщикам понравилась бы эта идея. 
Особенно принимая во внимание то что британское правительство планирует потратить 
15 млрд фунтов на строительство дорог до 2020 года.

Realising the Potential of 3D Printing

Ten years ago nobody was aware of 3D printing. Now we can make almost anything that you can imagine with the help of this device. Moreover, continuous improvements are taking place. What is even more important is that the cost of 3D printing is dropping dramatically. We already know that with the help of 3D printing we can build a house.  Previously, it was extremely expensive to do so but nowadays, the cheapest model of a 3D printer that can build a private house costs 13,000 USD.

Do you realize the potential now? With such a low cost, the implications of these 3D printers are enormous. Companies may buy them and lease them out to businesses. What about implementation for low-income countries? What if you go beyond building a house and try to build roads with the help of 3D printers? According to the World Bank, the median price for a 1 km road constriction is around 1 million USD.

Would you like your government spend this money in other areas? Or to lower down taxes? Maybe British taxpayers might like this news considering that their government plans to spend £15 billion on roads by 2020.

My First 3D Printer – BQ Brings a Live Printer to IE Talent Forum!

An innovative Spanish manufacturer bringing affordable 3D printers to homes and offices in Europe is BQ. The company touts providing consumers with affordable 3D printers with large print capacity, exceptional safety features and sleek aesthetic design. Beyond 3D printing, BQ is also a key player in European smartphone, tablet and e-reader manufacturing markets.

José Imedio, Engineer at BQ

The team recently visited the IE Talent Forum where they brought a working 3D printer to demonstrate its function. I was lucky enough to meet an Engineer and a Sales Manager from the BQ team who graciously showed us how the machine worked and discussed their plans for launching two more 3D printers in the near future. They even gave me the printed model after it had fully printed during the forum:

Our very own 3D printed Venus de Milo

BQ has accessible 3D printers available from as low as 249.90 €. 

For the printer offering, please visit: http://www.bq.com/gb/3d-world. 

Based on what I saw, these resembled more easy-bake ovens than what I imagined a real 3D printer would look like. What would you print with your very own home 3D printer?

3D Printers - Still cool?

Do you believe that 3D printers are still cool? We already heard so much about it, and many of us have even witnessed 3D printing in real life, so we might conclude that 3D printers used to be a great innovation, but now, they are just another thing we use.

My friends already wrote about different applications of 3D printers, how cool they are: saving life by creating human organs, and even saving the day by printing toilet paper (sounds weird? You have to read our previous blogs). Even Kanye West is afraid that 3D printers will ruin the textile market the same way the Internet ruined the music industry.

So again, is it 3D printing still thrilling?

Well I say, DEFINITELY YES. Let me try and explain why by comparing the current 3D printers to the development of mobile phones. The early mobile phones were big and clumsy, crazy expensive (only a few businessmen with cigars stuck in their mouths could afford them), and perceived as highly innovative. Then, a few years passed and suddenly phones became smaller, prices went down, and they became an integral part of our lives.

Some may say that at this point, mobile phones were just another thing we buy. I, on the other hand, claim at this point people started asking themselves what else can we do with this thing that every 10-year-old has in their back pocket? This question led to a massive wave of innovations such as early games (snake J) and apps (remember ringtone editors?). These days we have smartphones with an endless stream of applications. Can you imagine your life today without a smartphone?

So now let’s go back to 3D printers. In my view, 3D printers today are like the early generations of mobile phones. The printers are slow, expensive, big, and we don’t really know what to do with them. BUT now is the time when we should ask ourselves: “what else can we do with this thing?” and that is why 3D-printers are going to be way cooler.

3D Printing - Faster and Better

What comes next?

You might remember the scene from Terminator 2 where the bad robot rises from
liquid on the floor into a robotic policeman and continues chasing poor John Connor.  This new
technology presented by Joseph DeSimone, an American chemist and 2008 recipient of the Lemelson-MIT prize, shows how that can be possible in the near future (converting liquid into solid “new printed” artifacts, not into liquid metal robots).

Mr. DeSimone challenged the speed and quality of 3D printers, claiming that he can print objects 25 to 100 times faster.  He is even suggesting that soon the speed will be 1000 times faster!

Imagine if your dentist could replicate your tooth in less than 10 minutes?  Using this, new technology you would never have to worry about the weeks of pain and careful eating while waiting for a new tooth to be crafted.

The technique behind this is called CLIP (Continuous Liquid Interface Production), which basically avoids the normal 3D printing layer by layer (2D printing based) and allows for an unlimited number of shapes and designs. The result is a higher quality product with almost no surface imperfections produced much quicker than regular 3D printing.

If this technology were widespread, we would be able to repair broken parts of almost any artifact in
minutes. At an industry level, it would allow manufacturers to include 3D printing technology in
production processes.  Even more revolutionary are the derivatives of 3D printing technology that have recently emerged.

Perhaps the most significant is PRINT® (Particle Replication In NonWetting Templates) into the
pharmaceutical industry.  Using similar technology as CLIP, drugs are molded into molecular shapes that human bodies receive in a “friendlier” way.  Just imagine taking medicines with ZERO side effects.

Do you think that current 3D printers are going to be old technology in the near future? Is this going to replace a supposedly “new technology”? What would you like to print if you had this technology available in your house RIGHT NOW?
