2012 Consumer Electronics Expo
January 26th, 2012

This month I got the awesome experience of going on a business trip to Las Vegas for the 2012 Consumer Electronics Show. My company was there launching our new Cubify.com platform and Cube 3D printer.

That is the new Cube 3D printer I put on the huge CES sign one morning

The show was a blast! Our new products were a hit and our booth was packed the entire time. I can’t even begin to count how many people I spoke with in the booth, I was pretty much loosing my voice by the fourth day of the show lol.

The Cubify booth was packed the entire show

I didn’t have too much time to see all of the rest of the show due to the constant stream of people in our booth. The size of the crowds at this show were wayy larger than the crowds at the Maker Faire’s I have had booths at in the past. Helpful hint when working a trade show; always keep tons of water and throat lozenges around.

    Your work is great. I’ve got an older CNC router (home built but not by me), I’d kinda like to convert. It’s x=24″ travel, y=48 and z=18. I’d like to tip it on it’s side, so it’s z is 48. The travel ways and actuators are super heavy duty, so I think they could handle it. I don’t use it because its too much trouble to program and has some funky issue with the controls. I like the Cubex but it’s not quite big enough, unless I print in 2 parts. I agree that we are on the brink of a change in how objects we use are created. One issue for me with cubify is that the only CAD I use is Sketchup, which doesn’t seem to convert to a format acceptable to the cubify software. Here’s a link to my youtube channel with some video of my project. You might get a kick out of it. Someday I’ll get a rapid prototype machine and then I’ll be able to try out the next round of shapes I want to work on. Where I see them as really useful is in printing moulds, rather than objects.
