An introduction to the world of 3D printing and computer-aided design!
Are you interested in 3D printing? Do you have a 3D model you would like to print out? Join us in either Design in 3D or Prototype It! to learn how you can submit your 3D models for free printing at NYPL.
Design in 3D focuses on creating 3D models with Autodesk Tinkercad and becoming familiar with 3D printing processes and applications.
Learn how 3D printers work and their real-world applications.
Learn the principles of 3D modeling by creating projects in Tinkercad.
Prototype It! walks you through the process of rapid prototyping using 3D modeling. In this 3-part course, you will get hands-on experience with designing, testing, and iterating on a functional 3D print.
Design a 3D model for a functional purpose.
3D print and test your model to ensure functionality.
Improve your 3D design based on your test results!
