An homage to Gary Gygax. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Gygax)

This is perfect for when your die goes under that immovable piece of furniture and you NEED to summon you magic missile spell against the attacking Orcs.

Many a lost weekend were spent praying to the gods of chance.

*** Don't step on these babies, they hurt.
I tried to round the corners enough to make for a blunt puncture wound.

I've included the SolidEdge ST3 source files if anyone wants.

Here is a custom handle I designed.

I have just put the final touches on a process to convert 2D photos to 3D.

Here is a sample of the output.

Works for cats, bats, gnats, rats, or even non "-at" subjects. (like people and dogs)

All comments welcome

A simple dreidel based on a plastic model from my kids collection.

Included below is the source model file from SolidEdge ST3.

I used phooky's DXF profiles for the Hebrew letters. (thanks)

I managed to convert the files via SolidEdge.

Below are the PAR and STL files.

Enjoy.

This is a full 3D face (aka color cameo) made from a single photograph.

Just thought everyone here would appreciate what goes into making this.

*** NOTE***
It has come to my attention that some of you may only want the electronic file and not the actual printed part. We can supply that too.

A captive ball joint with a threaded shaft section & matching nut.

The floral pattern matches my Grandmother's favorite tea set.

Photos, to follow shortly. (of the ball joint, not the tea set, or my Grandmother)

A cookie eating monster of yester-year!

....that also enjoys a nice piece of mouse.

Have a big trade show?
Need a movie prop?
Don't want people lifting your cool gadget from a display?
(Neither do we)

So don't use real items just for show, just print a mock up.

That's what we did!

Do you love your dentist? Who doesn't?
I married mine!!!

With Valentine's day fast approaching, we all need something special for our loved ones.

Here is my expression of love for all to share.


I've included the SolidEdge PAR file for those who want to make changes.

Ever need a good bevel gear?
Well now you don't.

We love phooky's work.

When we saw the card, we needed to make a few for our selves.

Now the guys here never leave to see a customer without a sample card in their pockets. Yes, all the gears turn.

Hope this gives back a little to the community.

**UPDATE**
Had to redo the card back file as it omitted the sun gear, also resubmitted the ring gear as it was corrupted.

Here is proof that high performance composite (powder) 3D printing can provide very real usable parts.

We printed this hammer I designed and finished it using our Resin-X© thermoplsatic resin. As depicted, we have driven over 100 3.5" nails into solid wood for demonstration.

Note that there were hardly any marks on the head, nor were there any chips after all that use.

Yes, it may still be brittle, but it takes a good beating!

A monster that will eat your cookies!
(No he isn't Santa)

Ever need a pen?
Now Bic has some competition!
(even though you still need to buy the refills)
