Using Powder Bed Fusion 3D Printing For Fossil Reconstruction

Fossil Reconstruction in Powder Bed Fusion. Last year, the Site C Culture and Heritage Resources Committee (comprised of 13 Indigenous nations and BC Hydro) and W3 Design Group came to Forge Labs with a unique fabrication project – a 3D printed scale-model reconstruction of a 12,500 year old fossilized skeleton of bison occidentalis.

In 2018, Theta Effect reached out to Forge Labs with an exciting opportunity to collaborate on a complex prop for Come to Daddy, a black comedy feature starring Elijah Wood.
