Home 3D printers can cost anywhere from a few hundred dollars to thousands. Even expensive models can be frustrating, so the Materia 101's price could be a fair one if it works reliably. Arduino's ...

Arduino may be known for revolutionizing open source hardware platforms, but this week it enters the 3D printer market with the small and affordable Materia 101. Produced in partnership with ...

The kit includes an Arduino Mega, a RAMPS 1.4 board, stepper motors, and other essential parts. By following the tutorial, you can assemble the robot and program it to perform various tasks.

The general public will be able to clasp their eyes on a real-life Arduino Materia 101 at the Maker Faire Rome from 3rd-5th October 2014. We are told that the printer will be sold in kit form for ...

– 1 Arduino Mega – 1 Ramps 1.4 Board (for CNC milling and 3D printing) – Smart Controller LCD – 6 End Stops – 5meter LED Strip with remote control (IR) – Kress 1050 Spindle MFE ...

[Andrey] started with an Arduino Mega 2560 based RepRap RAMPS style controller. His big printer needed big NEMA34 stepper motors, far beyond the current capacity of the stock RAMPS stepper drivers.

His Arduino skills were honed with that installation and used during the development of this mouse. Also joining in the prototyping fun was a 3D printer used to make the parts.

The idea of a 3D printer is awesome, but if I actually bought one I can see myself just printing some coasters or whatever, saying "wow, that was cool" and then the thing begins a hearty career in ...
