Stratasys is Suing or trying to Acquire MakerBot????
That is some of the latest rumors swirling around MakerBot.
"Stratasys does not yet have an entry-level model for average users, a niche in which Makerbot has generated "
TechCrunch.
"This is a dance, and perhaps in the end neither MakerBot nor Stratasys will commit to a long-term relationship, but the dance alone served both of their interests. It may just help each of them find new partners to dance with.'

"And in the end, owning the biggest online market for 3D printed designs may be a much bigger deal than owning a 3D printing manufacturer, especially for a company with much more IP and resources at its disposal than Makerbot itself."
The Next Market Blog.
"Meanwhile, the idea of MakerBot raising USD$25M makes much more sense. This follows the standard pattern of startup companies: raise money at a certain valuation and grow using that investment. Then raise more money at a higher valuation, since the company has grown. Everyone wins. MakerBot has already raised USD$10M, so they're already executing this strategy. "

How to Make a Build Platform for Your 3D Printer.
My friend Tim Middleton showed me how to make a build platform for my 3D printer using a metal sheet, Kapton tape, soapy water and ABS slurry. You can also do the same thing with a pane of glass.

THOR: Tactical Hazardous Operations Robot Latest Pictures.
Photos are curtsey of Dr. Hong.
Link to RoMela website.
"The goal of the DARPA Robotics Challenge (DRC) is to generate groundbreaking research and development so that future robotics can perform the most hazardous activities in future disaster response operations, in tandem with their human counterparts, in order to reduce casualties, avoid further destruction, and save lives."
This photo was blurred so as to hide top secret details of the robot.
