Engineers at MIT 3D printed bricks out of glass to see if they were a viable material for construction projects.

How Are Print-in-Place Models Different? Usually when you print a 3D model, you need to generate supports for it so that any ...

[DaveMakesStuff] demonstrates a great technique for 3D printing a sphere ... parts and using vase mode ensures a support-free print that uses a minimum of filament. The trick is mainly to ...

Researchers at MIT created a new type of 3D-printed glass brick designed for sustainable circular construction. These ...

Increasingly, pellets are being used in extrusion 3D printing. But why should you adopt them? What are the benefits? We took ...

Engineers developed a new kind of reconfigurable masonry made from 3D-printed, recycled glass. The bricks could be reused many times over in building facades and internal walls.

These bricks are designed to interlock seamlessly, similar to LEGO pieces, making them versatile and easy to assemble.

A team of MIT engineers has invented recyclable glass bricks that can withstand similar pressures as standard concrete blocks ...

Researchers have created microscale robots less than 1 millimeter in size that are printed as a 2D hexagonal 'metasheet' but, with a jolt of electricity, morph into preprogrammed 3D shapes and crawl.

Still, just as different combinations of building blocks can be used to construct very similar structures, proteins with different sequences may share 3D shapes and play similar biological roles.

What if construction materials could be put together and taken apart as easily as LEGO bricks? Such reconfigurable masonry ...

The potential for 3D-printable glass masonry is immense. It could be reused multiple times, serving as recyclable bricks for ...
