The models of a patient's vascular system help surgeons better prepare for delicate operations for stroke, aneurysms and heart failure.

If you’re moving beyond foam board wings, 3D printing is an excellent way to create an accurate airfoil, and [Tom Stanton] provides us with an excellent guide to modeling wing sections for easy ...

How do you 3D-print without a 3D printer? If you don't own a 3D printer, you can still 3D print any 3D model you found through a database or designed through a software tool.

3D models, especially ones not designed for 3d printing can be incredibly complex, with hidden geometry that makes 3D printing them slow going. Here are a few simple tricks to help you ...

Before you even touch a printer, you'll need a design—a precise computer-generated model that will tell the printer what to make.

Using off-the-shelf electronic components, a Raspberry Pi, and a 3D printer, it's possible to build your own working miniature classic Mac. Here's how.

As the cost of 3D printers tumbles, researchers have begun using them to make everything from bespoke equipment for experiments to realistic models of human organs.

Are you curious how a single image can transform into a 3D model in seconds? Microsoft’s Copilot 3D tool can make it possible ...

Some readers may consider that a revolting oversimplification, but it is a helpful one to make a point about how 3D scanning, 3D printing, and CAD work do (and don’t) work together.
