My 3D printed paper folding machine may be the first of its kind. The machine can fold A5 size paper. Theoretically, however, you could scale the system and thus fold larger sheets. In everyday life, we deal with folded paper on a regular basis, without often thinking about how exactly these folds are created. The […]

After my 3D printed cigarette stuffing machine project was successful, I decided to develop a 3D printed semi automatic cigarette tamping machine. Here, my focus was to design the machine with as few parts as possible. There are a few videos on YouTube that show similar machines. However, these models are rather sloppily constructed and

The 3D printed laser rotary unit is a must-have for anyone who owns a desktop laser. The rotation unit makes it possible to process cylindrical objects such as glasses or flower pots. The construction of the 3D printed rotation unit should not pose any problems. All parts are very easy to print. I printed the

In this article I describe my 3D printed coin sorting machine. With this it is possible via Arduino not only to sort the coins but also to count them. A TFT display shows the type of coins and the amount of coins. To get a good idea about my coin sorter I recommend to watch

My 3D printed generator led to my first successful video on YouTube. Shortly after uploading, the video achieved more than 2000 views within a single day. Such high numbers were unimaginable and new to me. The origin of these views remained unclear at first. However, through research on the Internet, it turned out that they

The idea of creating a functional 3D printed Power Loom seems to be something no one has done yet. That’s why I decided to take on this challenge. Building this machine was a challenging task that required numerous hours both in front of the computer and in the basement, regardless of day or night. It

WHY??? Admittedly, the idea of constructing a cigarette stuffing machine may sound rather special. The inspiration for it came to me during my wanderings through the internet. I’m always on the lookout for challenging projects, and this one undoubtedly represents one of my most challenging yet. Building a machine like this requires a considerable amount

In the beginning was the idea. The idea to make a 3D printed braiding machine came from my wife when she made a friendship bracelet with a kumihimo disc.Kumihimo discs are an important tool for kumihimo braiding, a traditional Japanese braiding art. These discs have indentations or cutouts that are used to arrange the threads
