Introduction to 3D Printing
Get introduced to three-dimensional printing by seeing BARN's printers up close.
Three-dimensional printing has many uses, ranging from practical to fun, such as replacement parts, mold-making, and medical models used in surgery, prototypes, and more. To learn how BARN's 3D printer work, you will:
- See a computer file get readied for printing in a process called "slicing."
- Learn about filament, the material 3D printers use to make prints.
- Start a print and see the printer actually print.
Bring your curiosity and questions. You can continue to use the 3D printers during Open Studio times when a studio monitor or other member can help you.
