Today, 1-11-2016 is the 5 year Anniversary of Technewszone.com!!!


Today, we have reached 5 years on the web.

For 5 years we have talked tech, reviewed products, tried to get funding to become a 501c3 to help autism!

We also do articles on autism and advocate to improve the lives of people with autism!

We like tech, especially 3d printing and Drones, plus videography.

Our intent in the next year is to do an educational event to help folks with autism involving 3d printers and tech, and to advocate for autism, and raise funds to help folks on the autism spectrum too! In the future we plan to use drones, 3d printing and tech to help autistic people appreciate and experience the world and technology and to do a documentary for autism. Please help us in our future efforts!antibullyasd imagecropped-autism-image-e1451411631479-1.jpg

People Like You

A brand new year!
A clean slate on which to write
our hopes and dreams.
This year:

Less time and energy on things;
More time and energy on people.
All of life’s best rewards,
deepest and finest feelings,
greatest satisfactions,
come from people–
people like you.

Happy New Year!

By Joanna Fuchs

May 2016 be one which brings Peace on Earth,
an end to War,
Acceptance of all people with unconditional love for all,
An end to hate,
A realization that color is color is only skin deep,
An awareness that there is one race, Human, at least on Earth,
An acceptance of all people as equals even those with special needs and autism!,
A realization that we all are under the same God despite all of the so called religions of men,
God Bless Us All and may 2016 be amazing!

Ozeri Savore Soft Touch Electric Pepper Mill and Grinder

Ozeri Savore Soft Touch Electric Pepper Mill and Grinder

We recently received a

Ozeri Savore Soft Touch Electric Pepper Mill and Grinder..

To test and review. The first one had been damaged in transit, and we found that Ozeri’s customer service was quick, easy and efficient.

My wife and kids are regular pepper users and really liked the cool grinder–>

According to Ozeri:

The most advanced Electric Pepper Grinder offered, the new Ozeri Savore features a new front-side adjustable ceramic grinding mechanism with 3 preset grind levels so that you never have to invert your grinder again. The Ozeri Savore Electric Grinder is the ultimate accompaniment to any dinning setting where a touch of fresh pepper (or salt) goes a long way. Designed to operate effortlessly, the new Savore combines a new front-side adjustable ceramic switch with a battery powered motor for push-button effortless dispensing of pepper (or salt). Marketed almost exclusively by word of mouth, the battery powered Savore consistently wins applause with its ability to grind peppercorns, salt and spices. The Savore Electric Grinder by Ozeri also boasts an ultra-soft non-slip grip with a finger-print resistant coating. The Savore requires no assembly and runs on 6 AAA batteries (not included).

We agree that it is easy to get it up and running, it has so far worked rather well. Their customer service has also been excellent.

We would definitely recommend it to families and small restaurants!

I am an army vet, and my dad was an airforce vet. I feel the need to help my fellow vets as well as those folks with autism. We want to help folks with autism and vets get jobs, appreciate technology and we want to use tech to raise funds to help people as well !

Our primary focus is autism education and using tech to help those with autism.autism image

However, Since  I am a veteran who has struggled in my life to get work, to pay bills and get employment at times too. Therefore 1/3 of my efforts will also go to help fellow veterans get work, enjoyment out of life and to make a place for themselves. We want to make a difference for those with autism like myself and my kids and veterans as well.

If anyone can help us to help local veterans organizations or autism please do so:

Cubicity/twoBEars filament review!

Cubicity/twoBEars filament review!

We recently received filament samples from Cubicity here in the USA, they sent us samples made by twoBEars:

The  Company
twoBEars was founded in 2013 to devolop bio-material for 3D-Printing, rapid prototyping and additive manufaturing.

Their Philosophy
twoBEars develops and sells only products, produced by sustainable processes. We and our business are focused on the benefit for humans AND environment.

Their Goals
twoBEars has the target to develop biopolymers with different features out of renewable raw materials and offer these materials under fair conditions to you, customers. We do not want to use polymers , which belongs to the food chain, because of ethic conflict.
Our sustainable management balance the social, environmental and financial aspects of our business.

 

We especially liked the green algae based filament. It has a smell like the ocean, but it works well, and is interesting in its texture.

Algae-Fuel 3D Printing Filament (2.2lbs/1kg Spool)Algae-Fuel 3D Printing FilamentWe would definitely recommend the algae based filament to anyone that needs an interesting, rougher material. It reminds me of Carbon Fiber in the way it feels to the touch. It produced  a cool unique odor while printing which is different than the typical filament.

bioFila Sustainable 3D Printing Filament

They also offer samples as well to try out see–>Free Filament Samples

We tested samples of 2 Biofila 1.75 samples of the Linen and Silk, which produced nice output.

We had a small amount of linen and recycled abs that worked well on a Printrbot and Robo3d printer.

 

We appreciate the opportunity to test their filament and really liked it. We also received a really nice filament cleaning cube from Voltivo set that help keep the filament from getting dirty and dusty and reduces clogging of the print head–>3DP Essentials - Filament Cleaner

Solidoodle Press-Preview !!

Solidoodle Press-Preview !!

We were given a Solidoodle Press to test and review and use to help autism too for a bit.

sdoodle press review

So far we are impressed by the design and its’ compact size.

We like that it is a fully enclosed device.

According to Solidoodle:

The Solidoodle Press is a one-touch 3D printer designed to fit in your home. A consumer machine with no manual calibration required to get started. Just take it out of the box and start printing with our new SoliPrint software.

Product Comparison: Not sure what to buy? Check out our comparison chart to see which printer is right for you.

Filament: The Solidoodle Press has a proprietary spool. While you can use other filament, we recommend Solidoodle filament for your printer.

Warranty: All printers come with a limited warranty.

SoliCare: Extend your warranty coverage with SoliCare! For coverage above and beyond our standard warranty, SoliCare covers any defects or malfunctions in your new Solidoodle Press printer shipped within the United States for one year after it ships to you, whether due to manufacturing, shipping, normal wear and tear, or accident.

International Shipping: For international orders, customs fees, import taxes and VAT may apply and are not included in the shipping costs charged by Solidoodle. Please note that we cannot estimate your country’s import taxes at this time. For an estimate we suggest using this Duty Calculator.

We have been able to print some small objects with the printer and are working on a review of it.

We appreciate receiving the printer and look forward to future testing and reviewing of it.

We would love to test and review other 3d printers and drones as well. In terms of the design of the printer, it is very appealing to look at and would fit in well in ones home or office.

There are several options as far as the software, you can use Soliprint, Solidoodle’s proprietary software, Mattercontrol from Matterhackers, Simplify 3d or Repetier with a slicer like sl3cr.
