Can Shapr3D Shape Up?
Shapr3D, the little engine that could, the CAD program that was stunningly easy-to-use, came to us from the unlikeliest of places, Hungary—in one bold stroke, founder István Csanády, the mad Hungarian, had cut through the Gordian knot of CAD complexity. Shapr3D was the first CAD program that required no interface—no mouse, keyboard, or menus—you simply drew on a tablet. It was genius, not just for every engineer and architect whose 1st method of expression is a sketch and not just because I
S5E38 Istvan Csanady | Shapr3D
Hello and welcome to another episode of The Being an Engineer podcast. Today, we are speaking with the founder and CEO of Shapr3D, a pioneering 3D modeling app that has transformed the CAD industry by making professional design tools more accessible and intuitive. Starting with a vision to create a powerful CAD tool for the iPad Pro, Shapr3D has expanded to macOS and Windows, gaining recognition like the Apple Design Award. Under István’s leadership, the company has continuously innovated, raisi
The Perfect Heat Exchanger Design Comes from an Unlikely Source: nTop
Leave it to a topology optimization program to make the most marvelously efficient heat exchangers. Bradley Rothenberg, a wunderkind in computational design and leader of nTop, has seized upon heat exchangers as a perfect use case for his company’s software – and he may be right. At least in part. Other types of designs can benefit from the optimization of irregular geometry, of course. Still, as a business, he is wise to take advantage of a clear and impending need in heat exchanger design
It’s Always a Fight
In martial arts, there’s a routine. Each class starts with a new technique: a takedown, a choke, a sweep. Our coach walks us through it step-by-step, then we partner up and drill. During these drills, everything feels straightforward. Our partners aren’t resisting—they’re there to help us practice. You could almost start to feel like you’re nailing it. But then comes sparring. When the sparring round begins, it’s a whole different story. Your partner isn’t helping anymore. They’re resi
Bradley Rothenberg nTopology (nTop) & Computational Design
Aaron: Hello and welcome to another episode of Being an Engineer podcast. Today, we’re privileged to speak with Bradley Rothenberg, founder and CEO of nTopology, a company pioneering next-generation engineering software for advanced manufacturing. Launched in 2015, nTopology enables engineers to create complex, optimized geometries, particularly for sectors like aerospace, automotive and medical devices, optimized for additive manufacturing. Bradley brings a unique perspective to computational

Got a Bambu Lab A1 Mini what I've learned
Thanks for sharing your tips with the community, Mobin! Sounds like you're having a lot of fun with the new "toy" 🙂 @Noah Burk I bet you'd have a few things to add to this conversation, given the extensive printing you've done with your Bambu printer.- bambulabs

1Got a Bambu Lab A1 Mini what I've learned
I recently got a Bambu Labs A1 Mini for work and here is what I learned: It goes through a lot of waste filament You need to print a lot of accessories (such as a waste bucket, cable clips, etc.) Filament snags are no fun. When it doesn't print, wash the bed plate with dish soap/hot water and cold pull the filament from the nozzle. It opens up so many ideas for iteration that you will have a box of rejects but that is where the fun is. Also, all of the CAD modeling was done in Onshape.- 1
