ABSTRACT
This is a preliminary descriptive study of a new form of digital content: 3D-printable designs of physical things. We introduce a new dataset collected from one of the most popular sites for publishing and sharing physical object designs. We describe the data and its properties, and present an interactive visualization to facilitate further exploration of this space.

Barriers to Using, Customizing, and Printing 3D Designs on Thingiverse
GROUP '16: Proceedings of the 2016 ACM International Conference on Supporting Group WorkThingiverse is the largest 3D design-sharing online community with millions of users. Thingiverse provides a low-barrier-to-entry for exploring 3D printing as users can quickly download premade 3D designs and ask design-specific questions. In this paper,...
Fundamental characteristics of printed gelatin utilizing micro 3D printer
Gelatin is useful for biofabrication, because it can be used for cell scaffolds and it has unique properties. Therefore, we attempted to fabricate biodevices of gelatin utilizing micro 3D printer which is able to print with high precision. However, it ...
3D printed PEGDA microstructures for gelatin scaffold integration and neuron differentiation
Three dimensional (3D) printing techniques can be used for scaffold fabrication but the most of them are limited by resolution and material choice. To bypass these limitations, we developed an approach by combining conventional 3D printing and freeze-...
