Sometimes you need to 3D print something that’s just that little bit too big for the standard Prusa MK3S print bed. I thought I’d try out a Creality CR10 since they are relatively cheap and the guy I know who has one seems to believe they go alright. Check out our guide on replacing the […]

Building the extruder Welcome to part 4 of the Prusa build guide! This is a big one! It’s now time to assembly the business end of your machine. The extruder assembly is where the filament is melted and placed onto the print bed to become your 3D printed part. Luckily Prusa have wired up all

The Creality CR10 V3 is used for larger parts that won’t fit on the 240 x 220 x 220mm print bed of our Prusas. Boasting a 300 x 300 x 400mm print volume, it was seen to be a reasonable solution for printing prototype parts for our upcoming sister business R-Spec. It seems that it

I decided to build a sign for our workshop to show off our CAD skills and showcase a practical use for 3D printing. I first saw the concept in a YouTube clip and thought it looked like a fun project and it would spruce up the workshop wall. The design consists of a black rear

3D printing doesn’t always have to be about serious design projects. Sometimes I just need to kick back relax with an ice-cold tasty beverage. One thing that takes away from one’s ability to relax is when your stack of beverages rolls all over the fridge shelf and knocks over the pasta sauce jar… Thankfully, 3D

Lannix Design has recently purchased a 3D scanner which we hope will become a useful tool to complement our existing CAD and 3D printing services. We’ve been working out how to best optimize lighting conditions when scanning to obtain accurate results. So far it seems that dark and featureless surfaces are not ideal! Using brightly
