MeshUp: Mashup for Meshes<\/a> has only 55 hours left (at the time of writing) to raise an additional $4,000 for there Kickstarter project to be fully funded. MeshUp<\/a> by Uformia<\/a> is a stand alone product can be used to: <\/p>\n

1) Mix meshes:<\/p>\n

Create new objects by remixing any number of meshes and parts of meshes, or combining meshes with native MeshUp or Symvol models, without having to worry about vertices and polygons <\/p>\n

2) Make one or two-side shells and combine it with microstructures<\/p>\n

Make a one or two-sided shell volume, then combine it with microstructures to create lightweight yet structural object for 3D printing.  This shelling feature also means that you can convert ANY mesh into a volume – even meshes that do not represent any kind of solid object (a.k.a. polygon soup). <\/p>\n

3) Fix STL and mesh files <\/p>\n

Repair holes and other defects with your meshes either to prep your model for 3D printing, or to make it easier to convert the mesh into a volume object. Choose between a typical flat repair or the new rounded repair from Uformia, that acts more like smooth putty or clay when fixing a model.<\/p>\n

4) Create slices to go directly to 3D printing<\/p>\n

Output watertight STL files, or even better take advantage of direct manufacturing by using vector or image slice data at the resolution of the 3D printer.  <\/p>\n
