The PBS show Design Squad provides some great examples of how people can work with this system. There are also plenty of resources for working with students and other learners on their site. The Android G1 is pretty much ready for the public to use, but it is still not done. One of the reasons I wanted the G1 was to follow the process of developing a product from initial release. The phone and its systems work ok, well enough for product release. The innovation of the Android system and G1 phone is not limited to just employees, but explicitly involves the community of users and developers to make it a better system. Consider the the original ipod.

Solid freeform fabrication: DIY, on the cheap, and made of pure sugar. In February we gave a sneak preview of our project to construct a home-built three dimensional fabricator.
Our design goals were (1) a low cost design leveraging recycled components (2) large printable volume emphasized over high resolution, and (3) ability to use low-cost printing media including granulated sugar. We are extremely pleased to be able to report that it has been a success: Our three dimensional fabricator is now fully operational and we have used it to print several large, low-resolution, objects out of pure sugar. The general idea of our build process– that of stacking solid two-dimensional printed layers– is actually common to most solid freeform fabrication methods.
Our machine employs what we believe is a fairly novel low-cost technology to accomplish this: selective hot air sintering and melting (SHASAM). A new open source hardware project every month.

Imagine what else you can do – like engrave your logo or assembly instructions, etc. Here’s another example of clever use of the ‘waste’ material (see 4th photo of Bza’s Soundwave Necklace) – he uses it to package the necklace pieces and has cut arrows to show the direction to thread these sound bite pieces onto a chain.

Dustyn has written a book, called Making Things Move. It’ll be out in the fall and we’ll have more about it, and likely a giveaway, then. How to make snug joints in Acrylic. The importance of radii We’ve written about using ‘nodes’ with 3D objects made from wood before, but suggested it may not work for acrylic because it is more brittle and less forgiving. However, after working with Drownspire to develop their Vambit toy into a product we could give away at Makerfaire, I discovered that you can successfully use nodes when making with acrylic. There are, however, some tricks to it. Firstly the nodes need to be a bit smaller <0.15mm/0.006″ on each side. This means it wont cover the same range as in wood but still a good option. Second, how you treat the end of the slot is the key. Add Colour to Your Laser Cut Detail. Paint filling and masking laser engraved parts. Painting in engraved detail gives your design an additional unique factor and makes less likely to scream “I’m laser cut!”
In the old days of hand cutting materials, you would have to sit there for hours, carefully applying masking tape of fluid in strategic areas to ensure a crisp paint edge. Like trying to paint straight stripes on a wall, only on much smaller scale. Fortunately, should you choose to try paint filling your laser cut engraving, your can mask required areas with laser cut precision. The acrylics are cut with protective paper on, and all engraved areas are ready to be painted. Transfer tape over white acrylic, over bamboo ply. How much material does the laser burn away?
