Project Shellter for Hermit Crabs by Bre PettisHermit crabs don’t make their own shells. They scavenge their homes. And now, hermit crabs are facing a housing shortage as the worldwide shell supply is decreasing. As a community, we can reach out to this vulnerable species and offer applying MakerBot's digital design skills and 3D printing capabilities to give hermit crabs another option: 3D printed shells.  See article on this project at Txchnologist magazine.
