Intro to 3D Printing by Paper Crane Labs

Always been curious about 3D printing and how to get started? This is the ideal workshop for it! In this 2 hour workshop learn how to design objects to be printed, as well as how to operate a 3D printer. With no prior knowledge required, everyone is welcome to join!

What is included in this workshop?

  • Intro to the basics of 3D printing
  • We will teach you to design your own print file using TinkerCAD (a free web based software)
  • Learn slicing and entire workflow required to successfully 3D print a design
  • Discounted PCL Pass (a subscription to use 3D printers at Paper Crane Lab, Indiranagar) for one hour to be used later. Valid for one month.
  • Sample demo pieces

What you need to bring?

Please ensure you bring your laptop and charger! Any PC or Mac machine is fine.

Note: Every participant will not be able to print their design, as final printing takes a lot more time. Participants get to learn the designing and operations of files used for a 3D printer.
