🐶 'Daddy cmon - do it already' 🐾 The Revopoint Trackit SR has arrived. All in one big box. Size-wise, I can feel the difference straight away, as the original Trackit came in two big, heavy-duty cases. #Revopoint #3DScanning

3DWithUs@3dwithus.bsky.social · last wk.

New Revopoint 3D scanners + Back-to-School offers. Trackit SR joins the lineup alongside POP 4, MetroY Ultra, and more, with discounts of up to 20% on selected scanners. 🔗 3dwithus.com/revopoint-ne... @Revopoint3d #3DScanning #3DScanner

Testing Tripo AI for 3D printing. Text-to-3D, photo-to-3D, Refine, Segmentation, Blender cleanup, 3D printing... I went a bit deeper than planned. Full review: 3dwithus.com/tripo-ai-rev... #3DPrinting #AI3D #TripoAI

Scanned an old dumbbell set 💪 with the Creality Sermoon P1 and 3D printed it on the K2 Pro. Great fun and a surprisingly good way to test the complete scan-to-print workflow: 3dwithus.com/creality-ser... #3DScanning #3DPrinting

10 years of playing with 3D printers, and I still get a kick out of fixing something useful around the house. #3dprinting

From broken RC boat parts to functional replacements. The biggest lesson from this project wasn't just the scanner. It was the workflow. 3D scanning → Blender → 3D printing, with a little AI help. Full article: 3dwithus.com/revopoint-me... @Revopoint3d #3DScanning #3DPrinting

I had a blast 3D scanning and repairing RC boat parts with the Revopoint MetroY Ultra. I think I’ve just unlocked Level 2 of 3D scanning… thanks to a few tricks. 😄 Full article next week. #3DScanning #RCBoats #3DPrinting

While the Revopoint3d POP 4 campaign has already broken past the $1M mark, I’ve received both the POP 4 and Metro Y Ultra for hands-on testing. Teddy, as usual, gave the packages a few barks and sniffs before approving them. Testing starts soon. #Revopoint #3dscanning

Sniffing and stretching before the real work starts 🐶 The 3DMakerPro Raven has arrived. Looking forward to putting this LiDAR spatial scanner through its paces. #3DScanning

Revopoint POP 4 hands-on testing: I scanned feet for a scan-to-print shoe-stretcher experiment, tested color scanning, and even used purge towers from 3D printing as DIY marker blocks. 3dwithus.com/revopoint-po... #revopoint #3dscanning #3dprinting

The new Creality Sermoon P1 just arrived for hands-on testing. Teddy already completed the mandatory sniff test 🐾 and seems cautiously optimistic #3dscanning

Finally completed the 3D Printed Shoes guide. Did some hands-on testing, talked to people wearing them, and explored both fully printed footwear and hybrid lattice designs. One thing I still need to complete is printing my own pair at home. Matter of time…

Less than a month to go until #TCT3sixty. I’ll be attending again this year, so come and say hello. If there’s anything you’d like me to cover, feel free to comment or DM. Previous years’ highlights: 3dwithus.com/tct-3sixty-3...

We’re proud to be a partner of TCT 3Sixty, taking place 2–4 June 2026 at the NEC Birmingham. Join us at the UK’s leading event for additive manufacturing and 3D printing. See you there: invt.io/1lxbjtqt86w #TCT3Sixty #3DPrinting #IndustryEvents

Added another calculator and guide. 🧮 This one helps estimate how much filament is left on partially used spools before printing. 3dwithus.com/filament-rem... #3dprinting #filament #calculator

My first vessel named after me 😄⛵️ Thanks Clive for continuing to upgrade this 3D printed speedboat at our local boating club. Great seeing it back on the water today. #3DPrinting #RCBoat

I thoroughly tested U1. Apart from the included models, I also printed a bunch of miniatures for keychains from 3D scans. Scaled-down DeathRacer and RC Boats miniatures printed surprisingly well. Great printer for this kind of work. 3dwithus.com/snapmaker-u1... @snapmaker.bsky.social #3dprinting

Finally, the weather cooperated, and we had a great day out with Teddy 🐶🐾 and gave PollyFab’s 3D printed shoes a proper test along the way. More testing: 3dwithus.com/pollyfab-3d-...

New PollyFab 3D printed shoes just arrived. Unfortunately, our Chief Inspector Teddy is currently on light duty after surgery… but still insisted on supervising the unboxing 🐶 #3dprintedshoes

Pretty impressed with the choice of test models included. Could not stop printing one after another. Might give some clues on how to slice my own models. Featured models: @snapmaker.bsky.social, @lucky13toys.bsky.social, JINQITOYS #snapmakeru1 #3dprinting

What is scarier than a DeathRacer? A Battle Hardened DeathRacer! This one became a real hero across a few guides and made it onto Sketchfab. Einstar Rockit did a great job capturing the punches and bruises on this beast. Hands-on: 3dwithus.com/einstar-rock... #3dscanning

I hope this project goes well, as it could be a good start for wider 3D prints/plastics recycling at home. I have three boxes of unused prints. Turning them into reusable material, maybe even for molding, would make much more sense. #recycling

One gadget I tested at the recent trade show was AirPods Pro. Surprisingly helpful for hearing in noisy talks and demos. I wouldn’t want them all the time as I still enjoy silence, but for events like this, they made a real difference.

Fingers crossed 🤞 I might receive one for review. Interesting to see LiDAR spatial scanning technology becoming more accessible. #3dscanning

My digging into 3D printed shoes continues. Here are the shoes I spotted and tested at #SMRRF @The_SMF_ D7 by @David_Tobin, Flush by Pollyfab3D, 3D printed in various TPU at @SirayaTech stand #3DPrinting

My #DeathRacer braved all three fights! Only a little facelift needed. #SMRRF @The_SMF_ @samprentice.bsky.social

Just in case my DeathRacer gets destroyed 😬 at #SMRRF, I decided to preserve it in 3D. Maybe even as a keychain. @EinstarOfficial Rockit did a great job. #3DScanning #3DPrinted #DeathRacer @The_SMF_ @samprentice.bsky.social

First test of the freshly built DeathRacer. Finally running in the wild. The gears need a little fine-tuning, but I’m very pleased with the result. Getting ready for SamPrentice’s DeathRacers show at The_SMF #SMRRF #3DPrinting

It’s here. Snapmaker U1 has officially landed. Chief Inspector Teddy 🐾 has already approved the delivery. Setup and testing coming soon. #snapmaker #SnapmakerU1 #3DPrinting

Update: It is probably an anti-record, as I have been building this since April 2025, but there has been some progress. Electronics left 😅 Getting ready to @SamPrentice’s DeathRacers show at @The_SMF #SMRRF #3DPrinting

Good reminder (for both buyers and sellers) that the biggest contributor to cost is usually labor. As someone whose designs are popular with sellers, this section stood out to me. I can say from experience that very few people are bothering to tip the designer. So kudos for encouraging it.
