Learn the Basics of 3D Printing with SketchUP

Marcus Ritland will walk us through the process of making a 3D printable part in SketchUp, introduce some 3D Print Services that will make the parts for you, and teach you how to order parts in different materials.

With a background in construction and education from the Milwaukee School of Engineering, Marcus Ritland has been using Sketchup professionally since 2008 for his own CAD business, Denali 3D Design (http://www.denali3ddesign.com/). He runs a monthly meetup introducing makers to 3D printing from a print service and teaches a local SketchUp class (http://www.mnmill.org/classes/intro_to_sketchup_101).

This meetup will be a combined meetup with the Shapeways meetup group.
