Mickey Mouse would probably give one of his trademark gloves (and maybe an ear) for a boat this cute. PRINTcess is most likely the cutest watercraft to have floated on calm waters in years, but its ...

It’s an age-old problem. You draw up a nice 6.5-meter long motorboat and then discover the shape won’t allow for a fiberglass mold. What do you do? If you’re [Moi], you grab a few Kuka robots and 3D ...

The University of Maine just set three world records in one fell swoop. Using the world’s largest prototype polymer 3D printer, a UMaine team built the world’s largest 3D-printed boat, which also ...

Researchers at Leiden University have 3D printed the smallest boat in the world: a 30-micrometer copy of Benchy the tug boat, a well-known 3D printer test object. This boat is so small, it could float ...

Chilling in the pool while an RC (radio-controlled) boat serves you drinks, snacks, and plays your favorite tune. That’s what lazy summers are all about. Thank God for 3D printing, as it can make ...

There’s a new technological answer to the iconic line “you’re going to need a bigger boat” from Jaws: 3D printing one. Last month, the University of Maine revealed 3Dirigo, a 25-foot, 5,000-pound boat ...

In one of those weird twists of fate, there’s currently a very high chance that anyone who owns a 3D printer has made a boat with it. In fact, they’ve probably printed several of them, so many that ...

The University of Maine broke three world records when it unveiled a boat produced by its polymer 3D printer. The 3D printer can produce objects as long as 100 feet, and printed a 25 foot, 5,000-pound ...

The final test was a blunt one. Maarten Logtenberg wielded a sledgehammer, which simply bounced off the sample, barely leaving a scratch. After two years of experimentation, the material was finally ...

Oct. 30 (UPI) --Researchers in the Netherlands said they used an electron microscope and a high-definition 3D printer to create the world's smallest boat, which measures just 30 micrometers in length.

A 3D-printing company plans to print large objects such as boat molds and components as it transitions research performed at the University of Maine’s Advanced Structures and Composites Center into a ...
