Enrico Dini: Large Scale (6m x 6m x 1m) 3D Printing
May 7th, 2009 No Comments
Large scale 3D printing using sand and epoxy resin. The results resemble sandstone, with strength comparable to reinforced concrete. The process sounds simular to the way Zcorp printers work, though with a different scale & resolutions (25 DPI).

Rapid Prototyping and Mathematical Art
May 7th, 2009 No Comments
Talk given to the University of Waterloo Computer Science Club by Craig S. Kaplan — video and slides. “Quick tour of technologies, techniques and applications for computer-aided manufacturing in 2D and 3D”. Lot’s of good pictures of prominent artists in the area, examples of both additive and subtractive processes.
