Benchy is that cute little boat that everyone uses to calibrate their 3D printer. [Emily The Engineer] asked the obvious question—why isn’t it a real working boat? Then she followed through on the ...

Commercial 3D printers keep getting faster and faster, but we can confidently say that none of them is nearly as fast as [Jan]’s Minuteman printer, so named for its goal of eventually printing a ...

With lots of confusion over how to change 3D printer settings, a little rest from learning more on how to use the software seemed in order. So option 4 from yesterday seemed a good idea – print ...

Benchy is a fantastic tool for testing 3D printer settings and identifying potential issues. Each model tests different printer functions, such as retraction settings, bridging, and overhang angles.

Researchers at Leiden University have 3D printed the smallest boat in the world: a 30-micrometer copy of Benchy the tug boat, a well-known 3D printer test object. This boat is so small, it could float ...

Watch as a classic 3D-printing test model becomes a full-size, rideable boat. This oversized Benchy pushes printer limits, engineering creativity, and buoyancy to the extreme. #3dprinting #benchy #3dp ...
