or this class we write weekly blogs on a variety of topics that have to do with 3D printing.

Blog 1: Thingiverse

We had to explore around on Thingiverse and find different items.

An item that is amazing/beautiful

I find this marble machine pretty amazing. Now it doesn't do anything particularly useful, but it is a good example of what can be accomplished when being creative. Source

An item that is funny or strange

Seeing a printed version of the Mac OSX trash bin made me laugh. Source

An item that is useful

This is one of many items that I wanted to print immediately after I saw it. Source

An item that surprised me I never would have thought about making a gum machine out of printed parts. This is a great example of something that gets me thinking about how many industries 3D printing will impact in the coming years. Source
