Our 3D printed hair clip, styled to look like an antler, was a fun little Express turnaround project to create a prop for the House of Fraser Christmas advert shoot.
EA Sports wanted 3D printed heads to show off the incredible likenesses achieved on over 200 in game Premier League players using 3D scanning technology. Each of the players heads were then painted by two top model painters.
A Sketchup tutorial on making structures solid so they can be 3D printed.

Ian came to us and asked if we could 3D print some wheels he’d designed to complete his 1/8th scale Aston Martin model. The wheels that had been supplied weren’t good quality, he needed better and we were happy to help out!
This project of 3D Printed Table Legs attracted attention online, with articles written about the process and design of the table. Its pretty easy to see why it was so popular!
In 2012, a group of talented engineering students from Brunel University collaborated with James May to build an extraordinary glider capable of flying across the English Channel
Chase Cars are made to slip and slide around the track like a 70’s car chase with as much body roll as possible, sometimes its good to do things a little differently.

My name is Ankishu Gupta and I am an Automotive Design student. I’d like to share with you my method of converting surface models built in Autodesk Alias to .stl files ready for 3D Printing/Rapid Prototyping.
3D printing may seem limitless, but there are a few things that it, or the materials that it uses, can’t do. Here is a quick STL file guide of how to avoid a few no-no’s when designing your model.
3D printers require STL files to print from. The main issue is that all CAD packages are different, some use mm, cm, inches or meters. Converting to millimeters will help with consistency and accuracy of 3D prints.
