Circuit board making 3-D printer 



     There is a new 3-D printer that goes by the name Voltera. This printer dispenses a small trail of conductive ink that can be used in the creation of complex mother boards. It is able to dispense a non-conductive mask over the conductive trail to add more ink on it. This is perfect for inventors, hobbyists, and tinkerers. They are to start hitting shelves on January of next year. If you want to pre-order one it costs about $1500. I personally think that this is a really cool invention that could be useful to a lot of people.

Austrian Gerhard Feldbacher recently unveiled an interesting small home that aims to strike a happy balance between ease of transport and size. Named Simple Home, the small dwelling sports four integrated legs that enable it to be easily transported by truck and left in its intended location without the need of a crane, hoist, or other machinery. The whole thing weighs about 11 tons. It stands about 13 feet high. In my opinion i dont quite under the point of this house. If you are going to live in such a small space. You might as welljust live in an empty dumpster.

Pros and Cons of a 3-D printer.

When many people hear about a 3-D printer, the first thing that comes in their mind is how it can be used to make weapons. Even though that's mainly what's talked about, there is also a good side to 3-D printers.

You can make things like acoustic guitars, camera lenses, flutes, kaleidoscopes, plastic mugs, and even fabric! 3-D printers work by layering melted plastic to make a 3-D form.  3D-Printed Fabrics3D Printed Acoustic Guitar

How can Twitter be used in the classroom?

It can be used in multiple different ways to help educate and teach people different skills. It could be used to inform people of homework and put up notes or lesson.
