[NEWS] - Prince's Urn is 3D Printed

Claire Voon - hyperallergic.com

The late musician and legend PRINCE is allegedly laying in a 3D Printed urn resembling his home and studio. Cool. 

[NEWS] - The 350 Hour Print

Smart Tech 3D - http://smarttech3dscanner.com/

The world-class soccer player – Robert Lewandowski – was scanned using a SMARTTECH 3D scanner in order to 3D print a 3 meter-tall statue, the tallest 3D printed object, beating the previous Guinness record holder.

[VIDEO] - Dan Sultan's 3D Printed Music Video

Dan Sultan - vimeo.com

This is quite incredible. It's a 3D Printed, stop motion, projection mapped music video that took over 2 months, 60+ individual pieces and over 2700+ photos. It's for Dan Sultan's latest music video. Very creative stuff. 

[INDUSTRY] - Investments in 3D Printing

Michael Petch - 3dprintingindustry.com

If you are out of the loop about recent investments in the 3D Printing industry, this piece by Michael Petch does a good job of giving a great overview of recent investments. 

[INDUSTRY REPORT] - US Market to Grow 41% by 2021

Tech Sci Research - techsciresearch.com

*THIS IS NOT A FREE REPORT. In fact, it's obscenely expensive. You can still read a preview of the report and make up your own mind. 

[SOFTWARE] - Foundry, The Photoshop of 3D Printing

Andrew Dalton - engadget.com

Foundry is a neat piece of software from the folks at MIT. Essentially, it allows you to create MULTI-MATERIAL models for 3D Printing. Think of the 'layers' in photoshop but with actual material. For example, if you wanted to 3D Print a cup with a specific material than have a rubberized handle, you could design the entire thing on Foundry.

[DESIGN] - Earrings to catch your Airpods

Steve-3D - thingiverse.com

Going to include this for amusement. It's a pair of earrings that's designed to catch your earbuds if they fall out of your ears. Probably overkill and won't get you laid, but still amusing. 

[DIY] - 3D Printed Lucio Gun

fntsmn - instructables.com

Quite badass. 

[EVENT] - Maker Faire Rome

Maker Faire - makerfairerome.edu

I forget if I mentioned this, but if you are in the area, go check out Maker Faire Rome. It's going on right now. If you haven't gone to Maker Faire before, I highly recommend it -- especially if you have kids. It's an excellent event to get inspired about DIY projects and meet folks who like to build stuff.
