### Unlocking Potential: The Social Impact of 360 Links Design In a world where technology continually reshapes our lives, the 360 Links design stands out as a beacon of innovation with profound social impact. This design leverages the power of additive manufacturing to deliver not only technical prowess but also significant benefits for individuals and society. One particularly exciting application of this technology is in 3D-printed articulated toys that can be printed in place and have 360-degree movement capabilities. These toys exemplify the transformative potential of the 360 Links design, demonstrating its versatility and impact across various domains. Here’s how the design of the 360 Links translates into significant social relevance and benefits: #### 1. Empowering Innovation and Creativity - **DIY and Customization:** The 360 Links enable hobbyists and innovators to create complex, moving parts directly from a 3D printer. This capability foster...

Acid bed leveling is an experimental technique developed by Mels3D for achieving a perfectly flat build plate in 3D printing. This innovative process uses acid etching to precisely remove material from the surface of the build plate, correcting any irregularities.   Key Points:  1. Precision The acid etching process allows for extremely fine adjustments, resulting in a highly accurate and uniform surface.  2. Surface Quality  This method can produce a smoother surface compared to traditional mechanical leveling methods, enhancing print adhesion.  3. Durability Plates leveled through acid etching tend to maintain their flatness longer, reducing the frequency of re-leveling.  4. Material Compatibility Typically used on metal build plates like aluminum or steel, which can endure the etching process.   Process: 1. Preparation  The build plate is cleaned thoroughly to eliminate any contaminants.   2....

Mel started DIY projects in 2018 with a Homemade Electric Guitar to kickstart Midnight Riptide, an online POP-ROCK-EDM band started by Mel and his internet friends. With 3 singles released worldwide, Mel wanted to step up into an instrumentalist from being a lyricist and composer. As high end instruments costs a fortune, Mel wanted to find an alternative which led him to start working on a Homemade Electric Guitar called Melocaster. Collecting reclaimed wood from old house and furniture and acquiring waste wood from nearby woodmill, Mel started building the 3D printer which was named as Meloprinter, later renamed to Melxlxtreme R1 which took more than 6 months of solid research to develop and upgrade. MEL THUNDER AMP The research on building homemade Amps lead Mel to develop a 100 watts Monster Amp called Mel Thunder Amp. 100% Designed by Mel, including the PCB, transformers, CAB, Preamp, Amp board, speaker protection, Power supply and the Mid Range speaker itself custom d...

The idea was sparked as i was walking to the town, where i notice thrown away LED Bulbs polluting the grasslands. Later that day, Mels3D modified V020A2 Table lamp and made it into a prototype Bulb. The casing, Body is 3D printed with eco-friendle biodegradable PLA. RECYCLABILITY  The major disadvantage of the LED lights available in the market is that once it fails, its impossible to repair. Companies seal the body with strong adhesives and mount the PCB in a way that it cant be taken out without ripping off the wires. Hence the customers are forced to buy new. From a eco-friendly prespective, over time it creates a lot of E-Waste. An average household has about 10 LED, in which personally we had to replace or buy new 3 of them in the last 6 months. Over time the brightness of LED reduces, only if there was a way to replace those LEDs. The Bulbs we made consists of LED modules which can be replaced easily, solving the major problems mentioned above. LIGHT C...
