It’s A Thingiverse Survey
The P2P Foundation, who recently issued their annual 3D printing survey, have come up with another survey specifically to analyze Thingiverse. Thingiverse has become the most notable 3D-model-for-3D-printing free repository, now boasting over 100,000 3D models. But with that size comes questions. Are these things publicly viewable or private? Why upload things? Have you… Continue reading It’s A Thingiverse Survey
A 2013 3D Printing Survey
There’s a survey going on right now that everyone in the 3D printing space should fill out.

CHART: Optimism for consumer-class 3D printers
A recent ENGINEERING.com survey revealed that our engineering and design readers are very optimistic about the future of the consumer-class 3D printers. But counter to the wishful claims made by those with a vested interest, they don’t believe that sweeping change is coming. Read More at ENGINEERING.com
CHART: Readers predict 3D printing’s future
Strong, steady growth for the entire 3D printing industry is what our survey results show. According to our readers, that growth will be driven by advances in materials, output quality, speed and overall performance. What they aren’t accepting are the extremes: no growth or explosive growth. Read More at ENGINEERING.com
3D Printing Survey
We just noticed an online survey of 3D printing usage that readers may be interested in filling out.
