Europe's largest 3D-printed apartment building has been completed in France. Containing 12 social housing apartments spread across three floors, the project's printing process was carried out in just 34 days.
Rapid Liquid Printing draws silicone inside a gel bath, so gravity stops being the main constraint. No support structures. No layer-by-layer scaffolding. Just a part suspended in gel until it cures.
Engineers at Rice University have cracked one of printed electronics' most stubborn problems: how to cure freshly printed conductive ink without destroying the delicate surface underneath.
A viral video circulating on X appears to show a young developer unveiling a 3D-printed proof-of-concept prototype of a shoulder-fired surface-to-air missile system, or MANPADS, built for less than $100.

How a $10 part and some 3D printing filament just exposed a $5,644 fraud -- and why the people profiting from it are quietly rewriting the laws to make sure it never happens again.
Did anyone think this through? 3D printing laws are potentially about to ruin your hobby and business unless you do something more than make angry Twitter posts.
Described as Japan's first two-story 3D-printed home, the O House is inspired by the geometry of natural caves. Built to meet the country's strict seismic requirements, it combines cutting-edge robotic construction with some serious earthquake-resist
There are all kinds of critical infrastructure lying beneath the surface of our oceans – road and rail tunnels connecting land masses, pipelines for oil and gas, power cables connecting islands and countries, underwater research stations, and subme
If you bought it, you should own it. But a new piece of legislation is quietly threatening to make repairing your own hardware a crime. It starts with 3D printers, but the legal language in this bill sets a dangerous precedent for everything you own
Washington lawmakers are advancing two proposals that would expand the state's control over how 3D printers and similar equipment can be used, citing the spread of untraceable firearms as justification.
3D printers are about to become like star trek replicators - CBN Nano Technologies introduced a new technique called inverted mode scanning tunneling microscopy that enables mechanically controlled assembly at the atomic level....
3D-printed bike saddles in general are known to be comfier than their regular counterparts, but they should become even more so if they're made to order. That's the thinking behind the Personomic saddle, which is printed to fit the butt of each indiv

Swiss researchers have pioneered a method of cultivating metal out of water-based gel, an innovation that promises valuable applications in energy technology.
Polymer-based conductive nanocomposites, particularly those incorporating carbon nanotubes, are highly promising for the development of flexible electronics, soft robotics and wearable devices.
Driving 1,000 miles (1,609 km) of public road to set five official production car lap records in five consecutive days is no small feat – especially not for a car built with 3D-printed and machine-designed components. The Czinger 21C has just set a
Consumer 3D printers definitely have their uses, but they're typically limited to printing rigid objects … and doing so pretty slowly. The Saltgator, on the other hand, allows you to crank out rubbery injection-molded items in a claimed 10 minutes.
Most 3D-printed houses we cover are either arranged on one floor or have an upper floor added later using a timber shell. However, this recent example, by Contec Australia, was entirely 3D-printed across both floors in just 18 hours.
