What can the 3D printer do for you?

This online meeting is your opportunity to learn both about the technology and how you can use your engineering skills to design useful 3D printed objects with just a few lines of code!

We will start by covering the basics of 3D printing - a brief overview of the available printing materials, popular printer models, explaining the FDM printing process, talking about STL and gcode files, and where to find 3D printable files.

We will then take a deep dive into OpenSCAD: a developer friendly 3D modeling tool!

You'll learn:
▸ How to set up your environment
▸ How to design for 3D printing
▸ How to code your first 3D model
▸ Avoiding common design errors
▸ Best practices for getting successful prints on the first try

Agenda:

  • 19:00 - Getting started with 3D printing
  • 19:30 - 3D Modeling with OpenSCAD
  • 20:00 - Q&A

See you!
