       College student 3D prints his own braces




The digital design major has been straightening his top teeth for the past 16 weeks using clear braces he made himself.
"I'm still wearing the last one," Dudley told CNNMoney on Tuesday.
"The last one" refers to the twelfth and final straightening tray in his self-designed treatment.
Dudley said he had braces when he was in junior high, but he didn't wear his retainer as much as he should have, and his teeth shifted.
Over time, Dudley discovered that he wasn't smiling as much because he wasn't happy with the way his teeth looked.

Review: Plugging in with the MOS Pack charging backpack



The MOS Pack's cable sleeves and sets of snapping flaps help keep cables tidy

There's a growing number of bags that are designed to provide energy to devices while on the go. Many backpacks, such as the Poros Tetra, AMPL Labs Backpack, and TYLT Energi+, embed a USB battery to tap into. Successfully funded on Kickstarter, the MOS Pack charging backpack takes a slightly different approach by incorporating the company's power extension solution instead. We recently had the opportunity to check out what it's like to load up and plug in MOS's modern backpack.
