3D Printer induction

Turn a virtual 3D model into a solid plastic object. In this induction, you will learn the basics of 3D printing and creating your own model, including how to load it into the printer and clean up the final product. We'll take you through Tinkercad, an online free and easy-to-use app for 3D design. Use your creativity to create your own design and take home your first project!   

Once you've completed the induction you can book and use the 3D printers at The Edge Open Lab.
