In this article, we\u2019ve brought together a selection of our favorite videos from the year, where creativity and technology come together to shape the future. From inspiring stories to groundbreaking projects and applications, discover how 3D printing continues to push the boundaries of what\u2019s possible in our top videos of 2025, listed below.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Between Layers: An Exclusive Interview With Joel Telling<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-path-to-node=\"3\">We open our selection with the first episode of <em>Between Layers<\/em>, the new original series from 3Dnatives that looks beyond technical specifications to spotlight the human side of additive manufacturing. In this exclusive interview, Elliot sits down with Joel Telling, widely known as the 3D Printing Nerd. Joel takes us behind the scenes of his journey, from his first experiments in 2014 with a FlashForge Creator Pro, printing My Little Pony figurines and troubleshooting at home, to running a modern print farm. The video also explores how his background in software development has shaped his approach to 3D printing and reflects on the power of technology as a source of inspiration for future generations of engineers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8IpbvaiF4HY?si=SvJsi32W3FkA9ldk\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p><div class=\"dnati-inside-article-leaderboard\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"dnati-554787252\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/app.swapcard.com\/login\/event\/additiv-defense-2026\/ticket\/VGlja2V0VHlwZV83MDM4MQ==\/page\/UmVnaXN0cmF0aW9uRm9ybV81NjE4Ng==\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"LB\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.3dnatives.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/LB.gif\" alt=\"\"  width=\"850\" height=\"150\"   \/><\/a><\/div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Customized Drones on the Battlefield<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-path-to-node=\"2\">The role of additive manufacturing in the defense sector reached new heights in 2025, as highlighted in this in-depth report by The Wall Street Journal. The video takes viewers inside the United States Army\u2019s Lightning Labs in Hawaii, where soldiers are no longer just operators but have become manufacturers in their own right. Using 3D printing, the Army can now design, print, and assemble lethal FPV drones in just a few hours, starting from simple digital files. This frontline manufacturing capability removes reliance on vulnerable Pacific supply chains, while significantly reducing both costs and delivery times.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ffeSN-kwGA8?si=K1zGmlFWu4IHOv0B\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b data-path-to-node=\"1\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">3D Bio-Resorbable Heart Valves\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-path-to-node=\"2\">Medicine continues to make major strides thanks to 3D printing, and research in 2025 has once again delivered remarkable breakthroughs. In this video, researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology present a groundbreaking solution that could transform the lives of millions of patients living with heart disease. The innovation is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.3dnatives.com\/en\/a-breakthrough-for-3d-printed-heart-valves-from-georgia-tech-260220256\/\">3D-printed artificial heart valve<\/a> made from bio-resorbable materials. Unlike traditional prostheses, the valve is designed to be gradually absorbed by the body, allowing the patient\u2019s natural tissue to grow around it and regenerate. This technology is particularly promising for pediatric patients, as a valve that adapts as the body grows could spare children from the multiple and high-risk surgeries that are currently required throughout childhood.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-fMI4VcPiLA?si=y4lDvwayv9xXvAzl\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Japan\u2019s First 3D-Printed Train Station<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The construction sector also delivered its share of surprises in 2025. This spring, Japan completed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.3dnatives.com\/en\/worlds-first-3d-printed-train-station-japan-180320254\/\">world\u2019s first 3D-printed train station<\/a> in just one week. The compact white structure, featuring a curved roof and a minimalist design, was installed in a rural area of western Japan. Assembly began shortly after midnight, once the last train had departed from Arita Station, and was completed before the arrival of the first scheduled service at around 5 a.m. The entire structure was assembled in just two hours.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/edr8SxivBzs?si=y1CXRwfr2KYQqyxA\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-path-to-node=\"1\"><b data-path-to-node=\"1\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Prusa CORE One: The Professional Evolution of Desktop 3D Printing\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In this edition of 3D Snapshot, we take a closer look at the Prusa CORE One, the first fully enclosed CoreXY 3D printer from Prusa Research.
