International Maker Faire was held in NYC this week. As expected, many new printers and 3D scanners hit the 3D printing related aisles there. See a couple below, more to follow next week!

 

Printers and Scanners

 

The Peachy Printer - The First $100 3D Printer & Scanner!

"The peachy printer is a Photolithographic printer. That means it uses a controlled beam of light to cure light sensitive resin into hard objects. The peachy moves a laser beam along the X and Y axes to create the shape of the object, while using a drip system to control the level of the resin on the Z axis which determines the height of the object."

3D printed Kindle page turner: Flappy paddle gearbox for your Kindle

"Why?

One or two people have tried in the past to make big button conversions so that disabled people can operate the slightly fiddly page-turn buttons on the sides of a Kindle. For example in 2011 there was the electronic "Frankenkindle" and so on.

However, since I own a 3D printer and make a lot of things with it, I thought I would try to make a 3D printable entirely mechanical Kindle page turner with large buttons."
