Othisis has tested a 4.5 kN cryogenic engine whose chamber was made with SLM. The useful part of additive manufacturing is not the word “printed”, but internal channels, fewer joints and faster iteration.
“PLA at 210 °C” says very little about sustainable print speed. MeltCalc puts the missing variable back in view: volumetric flow and the conditions under which it was measured.
Underground, familiar frequencies and antennas stop behaving familiarly. Cave radios move towards low frequencies, near-field coupling and antennas that can extend tens of metres across the ground.
Two carriages, delta kinematics, a tool changer and paper feed turn András Vujovits's prototype into something that automates more than the motion of one pen.
Biyubi ran on a homebuilt Am29000 computer. Seeing it again in 2026 required rebuilding the emulator, storage, video, C environment and a network bridge around the recovered software.
On a complex film camera, the service manual may not be enough. Repair also depends on photographs, parts lists, measurements, remade components and notes left by people who have already opened the machine.
Graph paper, a 32 × 32 grid, actual-size preview and finally hexadecimal for ROM: the first Macintosh icons came from a workflow where drawing and technical constraint were inseparable.
Ploopy publishes mechanical, electronic and firmware layers. The result is not magically easy to repair, but it keeps the object inspectable and reproducible much deeper than a typical peripheral.
The GoldenEye project reconstructs source capable of reproducing the expected ROMs without distributing all game assets. “100%” describes a matching-build milestone, not the recovery of Rare's original source tree.
PINE64 paused several production runs as DRAM costs rose. The case shows why small hardware makers have fewer ways to absorb a shock that large buyers can negotiate through volume and contracts.
