3D printing

April 2, 2011

On 31 March the MIAT museum, together with department of Applied Engineering of Hogeschool Gent, hosted an event about 3D printing. The aim was to demonstrate the possibilities of various 3D printers (RepRap and Maker Bot) in a live printing session. To run this experiment they took a letterpressed film poster, scanned various letters and printed them from different materials. So in less than an hour I got freshly printed letter in my hands:) Wel, unfortunately the surface of the printed letters is not perfect yet, so it still can not replace the missing letters (or maybe in the future).
