Description

We will learn the entire 3D workflow from model to finished print This class will cover how to take a 3d model of your own design or downloaded from the internet. We will take a model and learn to use slicing software to create a printer ready file. We will then run the file on the printer to produce the part. Each step in the process will be shown and any special considerations of particular parts will be discussed. This class is intended for those with little to no experience in 3d printing. Instructor: Joe Bieniecki has been a maker for over 45 years and is passionate about teaching folks how to bring ideas into being. Technocopia is a non-profit makerspace located in Worcester, Massachusetts.
