Tagged 2012, Artica, showreelWe had the pleasure to be part on the first portuguese TEDxKids!! We brought our Farrusco’s tribe for a brief introduction to robotics during the afternoon, what a great time!! Big thanks to all the TEDxKids team for the opportunity and support!! This kind of events should happen more often!
There will be a TV show dedicated to the event this Saturday and Sunday @ SICNoticias

This is what came out, STL file is available at Thingiverse!

Here I am using a heater pointed to the printer, this keeps the object and the platform quite warmy! and it works flawleslly! Besides it keeps the room quite warm wich feels good under the winter.. summer will be much hotter I suppose!!

PLA filament lose elastic properties through the time and on the BFB3000 it simply snaps inside the rubber tubes.. I created a roof on the top of the printer as you can see, the filament enters the print head without any stress and no more snaps!

This photo was taken on a foggy day, but I couldn’t miss to capture this nice wood path! After some retouch with HDR manipulation it came out quite nice in my opinion.
This shot was taken on Zen Garden, Bombarral.
