product development

eight colors, zero clutter

messy desk i'm excited to share my latest upgrade to my 3d printing setup: a second bambu lab AMS unit! this means i can now print in eight colors, opening up a whole new world of possibilities. but adding another AMS also meant i needed to rethink my storage and organization. keeping everything tidy and accessible on my desk was a challenge, especially since stacking two AMS units on top of the x1c wasn't feasible due to space constraints and the rear-mounted poop chute. my solution? a hybrid-custom-designed shelving system that maximizes space and keeps everything within easy reach.

alloatech's first commercial 3d printed product-part 1

in june of 2024 i decided to minimize my diet soda consumption and decided to try one of those soda machines to see if that could replace my fix for something bubbly without those artificial sweeteners. for many reasons i went with the aarke carbonator pro and i just love it. however, i soon found out that i drank a lot of carbonated water and then realized it was quite expensive to exchange those teeny-tiny tanks. read on to see how i decided to leverage my newly developed 3d modeling skills to create a novel solution to fizz more for less!
