3D Evolution
3D printing has evolved so much over the last decade. It has brought new possibilities to every hobbyist out here. With the addition of Free CAD programs and the increase with printer reliability its as if anyone with an idea became a designer over night.
Unfortunately with that has also brought the age of copiers. While it has opened the door to new ideas and improved ones, it has also brought the mind set of ‘I can make that too’.
While I have never been much for racing something to market I have always believed in improving an idea before pushing it out there. This at many times has made us seem as followers. I dont show the behind the scenes, only end results. But as 3d printing became more and more popular it was great to see more people dive into it.
With that though has come what I see as a lost market over the past 5-6 years. Ive watched as other designers have brought great product out only to have others copy them. Copy and take credit for their products as well as our own.
Ive decided to make all our designs Free To Download, carry them into the Opensource world of sharing. Over the next few weeks I will be updating the site with Free Download links for our 3D products, from bumpers to random fan mounts and other useful tools.
I will still offer them as made product for those without printers or access to them. Basically a discounted charge for time spent making them. But for those with the ability to print themselves I will post the STL files for Free.
Any item we currently show listed will be up for grabs. Free Use – No taking them and reselling or I will pull the link to that product. There are as well other items Ive never released that will be up there. Tools and Accessories that I have as promo items or just personal things Ive done over the years.
Feel free to un on over to our 3D Section for the files, or items you cant print yourself. More will be on the way as I draw and design them up.
