Fun at the Columbus Idea Foundry and FabSpace 3D Printer Meetings



We attended two 3D Printer meetings this month. One at the Columbus Idea Foundry and the other at FabSpace in Dayton.

The meeting in Columbus had a large turnout with several varieties of printers (RepRaps, Deltabots, Makerbots, Printrbots, etc), scanners, a 3D pen, among other technologies. It was interesting to see all of the modifications to the printers and learn more about 3D printing from other hobbyists. This monthly meeting has been going on for a few years and has many regular attendees, as well as some newcomers.

The meeting in Dayton  is just getting started. It'll be exciting to see where they'll be a few years down the road. It was fun to meet someone new to the field of 3D Printing. And as always, it is cool to see what other members are building with their printers.


I printed a NASA wrench for the meeting. The wrench didn't have moving parts, but it was good to have the printer demonstrating its capabilities! One of guys at the meeting made some modifications to the wrench and was able to get it working.
