How much access do you have to a 3D printer? What would you do if you had weeks of time on your hands and a couple spools of filament lying around? Perhaps you would make a two second stop-motion ...

[Steven] at the 3D Printer Academy has been working on a variety of different gear designs. He recently embarked on a series of experiments to see how fast he can spin a 3D-printed gearbox.

It’s been 3D-printed, the ingredients deposited through a nozzle layer by layer, this impressive technology resulting in the exact “salmon-inspired” texture the manufacturers want.
