Those people who subscribe to our newsletter will have seen a sneak preview last month of what we’ve been up to with the 3D scanner. My old friend Michael and I have been interested in creating our own parts for our cars and so we’ve decided to have a go at building a business from […]

I’ve come across some really great looking 3D printing time-lapse videos on YouTube and wondered how the were made and can I reproduce similar results. My partner Jade had a digital SLR camera that wasn’t being used too often so after some begging I was granted permission to use it in my experiments. The method

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

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

Building the X and Z-axes Welcome to part 3 of the Prusa build guide! Because this is the fourth Prusa i3 in the Lannix3D workshop, we have reproduced some of the parts with a nice blue filament to distinguish this printer from the others. Prusas come from the factory with 3D printed parts, some of

This one has been a long time coming. Since all the 3D printing was done it has sat around waiting for someone to screw it together. Subtle hints that this truck would make pretty good photos for the Lannix Design website eventually guilted my friend into making time to get it together. Thanks mate! It’s

Building the Y-axis Moving on from the first post where we assembled the 3D printer’s main frame, it’s now time to build and install the Y-axis carriage. Incidentally, this is where I’ve noticed a difference between this MK3S+ and the earlier MK3S which is the brackets that hold the linear bearings to the underside of

My dad found one of these things second hand and thought it would be neat in his mancave. What does an English phone booth have to do with 3D printing I imagine you asking..? Well dad’s is missing its crown and asked me if I could make some sort of template so he had a

Building the main frame Prusa 3D printers are considered to be a reliable workhorse machine suitable for mass producing parts in a small business. Popular with hobbyists and businesses alike, we can vouch for their reliability and performance. This is our fourth Prusa machine and to distinguish it from the rest we have decide to

Air filtration, heat and humidity management are an important part of maintaining high quality 3D prints. All through the year the humidity in Brisbane can be quite high so it’s important to control the climate in the workshop. An air filtration unit has been installed in the enclosure and a dehumidifier is on its way
