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 ...
Moi Composites recently unveiled the finished MAMBO (Motor Additive Manufacturing BOat), an idea that became a real-life project to 3D print a boat with a continuous fibreglass thermoset material.
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 ...
