Selected from the archive for the 3D Printing collection — a quick, visual way into the topic before you go deeper.
Here, our guest was invited by Professor Aart van Bezooyen who heads up MAKE, a platform for materials and technology at Burg-Halle University in Halle near Leipzig, Germany to run a workshop printing paste materials using the DIY 3D printer. The video shows experimentation of 3D printing with locally dug clay, builder's silicon, wax, sugar frosting, sugar sticks and sugar fondant, wood paste and I had tried chocolate as way of preparation. Oliver Reinecke from the university had built a version of the Delta 3D printer from the information on my website so we had two printers.
