Week 8: More Printing with Potato!

This week we worked on applying the feedback we received from our PDR and began investigating new materials and mechanisms. We continued to perform more experimenting with potato, varying print settings and the mixture of potato flakes and water to try and improve print quality. Some examples of these prints are in the attached image gallery. While we continue to experiment with different materials in our current setup we are also working on designing our own custom extruders and extrusion methods. We hope to show some of this in the upcoming weeks and will continue to update our blog with new developments!
