Rapid prototyping of plastic parts and models at the tokyohackerspace
Feb 4, 2010
On 02/08/2010 18:00 there will be a workshop at the tokyo hackerspace taught by Yusuke Yumae of HotProceed.
Learn about the revolution in home product manufacturing using affordable desktop 3D printers!
The CupCake is a commercialized kit based upon the open source RepRap 3D printer. It can make parts, models, and machines using plastic fiber that has been melted and deposited by its robotic hand.
Yusuke will demonstrate the part design and build process from start to finish. Watch as a simple part is created using open source CAD software, then translated into commands to drive the machine. In a few minutes, a REAL plastic part comes out of the machine!
Its better than an Ez-Bake Oven!!!
