This program will cover the basics of how to find and design 3D models and how to then get them onto the printer.

3D printing can be very easy to get into. About 90% of the projects printed in the Maker Studio are ready-to-print projects from one of a handful of sites. In this class we'll pull up a few of those sites and teach you where to go to find projects, what to look for once you're there, and things to consider. If time allows we'll also look at Tinkercad which makes creating simple 3D designs very easy to do.
