Leave papers work draw your dreams in the air. The 3Doodle pen that replace ink with plastic which melts at 270C to create a 3D items instead of just an idea on paper. As long as you start on some surface, you can take your creation right into the third dimension with 3Doodler. Doodles become objects with the 3Doodler, the world's first 3D printing pen. Working in a similar way to 3D printers, the pen allows a practiced user to produce sophisticated 3D shapes. Fresh to Kickstarter is the 3Doodler, a pen that literally lets you draw, doodle, and write in 3D.
Anyway, that rant aside, the 3Doodler is at least suitably named, and it is really cool. Small sections of 3mm filament are fed into the back and it’s extruded out the front, cooling quickly enough to do completely vertical lines; a foot of filament will render into about 11 feet of doodling. Even 2D drawings can be lifted and stood up, or combined, making stencils incredibly useful. It can also be used to repair and weld together other plastic things, so those with a real 3D printer may want a 3Doodler if not just for that. There are two speeds; fast for filling in, and slow for detail and pressing both buttons simultaneously will back the filament out, which is useful for changing colors.
Artists can create anything their imagination comes up with. If a doodler is worried about skill in crafting with the 3Doodler, they offer stencils. In the stencil used as an example, a doodler would trace over the guides for each side of the Eiffel Tower. Then, they would put the pieces together and connect them using the pen.
The 3Doodle is incredibly cool but it offers more than just originality. According to the company it can be used to create pictures, shapes, jewelry, pendants, and fridge magnets and allows users to personalize things like Smartphone cases, laptops and tablets. It also creates the potential for designers to literally draw a prototype of their idea, allowing them to map it in 3D before it has even gone into production.
