Solidoodle Press-Preview !!

We were given a Solidoodle Press to test and review and use to help autism too for a bit.

sdoodle press review

So far we are impressed by the design and its’ compact size.

We like that it is a fully enclosed device.

According to Solidoodle:

The Solidoodle Press is a one-touch 3D printer designed to fit in your home. A consumer machine with no manual calibration required to get started. Just take it out of the box and start printing with our new SoliPrint software.

Product Comparison: Not sure what to buy? Check out our comparison chart to see which printer is right for you.

Filament: The Solidoodle Press has a proprietary spool. While you can use other filament, we recommend Solidoodle filament for your printer.

We have been able to print some small objects with the printer and are working on a review of it.

We appreciate receiving the printer and look forward to future testing and reviewing of it.

We would love to test and review other 3d printers and drones as well. In terms of the design of the printer, it is very appealing to look at and would fit in well in ones home or office.

There are several options as far as the software, you can use Soliprint, Solidoodle’s proprietary software, Mattercontrol from Matterhackers, Simplify 3d or Repetier with a slicer like sl3cr.

 

Awesome 2001’ish video from 3DR Drones!!

We are huge tech fans and are trying to help autism too. We would love to use 3d printing to help autism via art and tech projects and to raise funds to help.

We are also into drones, especially ones that involve 3d printing as well.

I recently saw 3DR’s products and loved this cool video:

We would love to test and review or if possible have one of the devices donated to use to film autism events, and eventually part of the autism documentary that we are planning once we get support and funding!

If anyone can donate a good drone or 3d printer or wants to sponsor us in our efforts to use cutting edge tech to help funding for autism let me know.

Our summary of Woosh Cleaner!

Whoosh! Tech Tag

Research shows that 82% of mobile phones have some form of bacterial contamination. (Source: London School of Hygiene & Topical Medicine, University of London)
