After the completion of the course you will empower to design your own 3D models in a systematic way for various application by learning the software's and hardware of the additive manufacturing implementation. Learn how to prototype products and even create functional objects for your home, office, or even as unique gifts for friends. Enjoy!

Welcome to the world of 3D printing. In this 3D printing course we’ll be going over the basics of the 3D printing world. This course is designed for beginners and experienced to gain an understanding of how a 3D printer works, and the process of going from a blank 3D design to a full physical print out.

The real magic in 3D printing happens when you are able to create your own designs. We will learn how to use Tinkercad to design the model practicaly and functional products that can be 3D printed. Each lesson will build on the prior to introduce design concepts and best practices when when designing for desktop 3D printers. Tinkercad and Cura is free for students and hobbyists and is a very powerful designing tool. By the end of the course you will have the skills and confidence to begin creating your own designs and start turning your ideas into physical objects.

Imagine if you could press "print" and then everything you'd ever need would be created. I mean EVERYTHING. Well, this isn't science fiction completely.. it's almost 100% possible thanks to 3D Printing.

3D Printing, or additive manufacturing, is a way to build real objects using a three dimensional electronic robot/device based off using 3D CAD models (computer aided drafting). The technology is still in early stages but it's quickly becoming the best way for anyone to make prototypes and cool objects that wouldn't have been possible ever before.

Taking this course will empower you to design your own 3D models in a systematic way for various engineering application by learning the software and hardware of the additive manufacturing implementation.

Learn how to prototype products and even create functional objects for your home, office, or even as unique gifts for friends.

Enjoy!
