Did you ever wonder how people made all those cool 3D objects? Whether board game pieces or parts of a machine, these parts start as an idea in your imagination, then turn into a 3D object on a computer, and finally are printed on a 3D printer.
At the 3D Design and Printing Camp you’ll do all of these things!
Learn the basics of 3D design using SketchUp or TinkerCAD; save your designs and then export them to the 3D printer.
Learn about calibrating the machines; starting and finishing the print; fixing errors; and all the details that make 3D printing both challenging and rewarding. At the end of the week you get to take home all the cool things you’ve created!
NEW for 2020: Campers will be building their own 3D printer and bringing it home with them at the end of the week.
