A few months ago we got the amazing news that our project 3D Printed DNA Lamp was one of the winners of the instructables 3D printing contest! As a reward we received the Kossel Mini Kit 3D printer, so here’s the unboxing, review and … upgrade? (I’ll explain later :P)
This is a project I have made for the Instructables 3D Printing Contest. I was browsing online for some 3D designs when I found a DNA strand, and I noticed that when I rotated it, it created a weird hypnotising upwards and downwards effect, so I thought it would be cool to take advantage of that effect and use it on something, then came the idea of making a lamp. This will be a small summary, since the full article can be found on Instructables. And STLs can be found on My Mini Factory. If you’re not into DIY, you can get one on Tindie.
It is with immense pleasure that we announce that we are one of the winners of the Instructables 3D Printing Contest, having won a new 3D Printer! This contest was a partnership between Instructables and 3D Hubs, and it was the biggest 3D printing contest ever done, giving away 13 amazing printers!
