ARCS is a patent pending technology that allows multiple machines to work together to create a home with little or no human assistance. Delays in building projects are a thing of the past now that building a 3D printed home is possible in hours — not days or months.
The 3D building process ushers in a new level of affordability for homeowners and businesses like never before. In addition, this new technology can reduce construction costs by as much as 70%.

PLA Plastic – All You Need to Know About PLA Material in 2019
Polylactic Acid, most commonly known as PLA, is a polymer made from renewable resources. Contrary to other thermoplastics which are petroleum-based, some of the raw materials used for PLA’s production include corn starch, tapioca roots, or sugarcane.
Its properties, however, are comparable to other plastics in the industry. These characteristics and consumers’ desire to use a less impactful material have triggered its rapid entrance to the plastic market as a competitive commodity.

Analysis of 3D-Printer Power Consumption Using Creality CR-10. TL;DR: 24/7 Operation = 2¢/Hour
Rob Cockerham has an interesting analysis of the power demands of his CR-10 3D-printer – when only the fans are running, when the nozzle is operating at 185°C, the heating bed is maintained at 45°C, and while the printer is operating on 2 axes.
Father and son build Lamborghini Aventador using 3D printer for just £16,000 – saving a whopping £255,000
Sterling Backus was inspired to build the supercar after his son said he liked it when they were playing video game Forza Horizon 3.
But as he didn’t have the budget to buy a brand-new Aventador, valued at more than £270,000, he decided to get creative.
Despite having no experience, the physicist turned to 3D printing to build the impressive motor.
This printer prints on ANYTHING!
Using a cheap dual-core donor computer, Chinese arcade button kit and some other computer bits and bobs, I ‘try to’ build a mini virtual pinball machine for around only $100!

We do a lot of 3D printing at Tested, but it’s a time-consuming process best used for prototyping, not mass production. To replicate our 3D prints, we invited Frank Ippolito up to Adam’s shop to teach us how to make simple rubber molds and cast awesome resin copies. It’s really not difficult to get started!
