2-in-1 3D Printing Workshop

Service Description

Are you curious about 3D printing but feel intimidated by the complex software and hardware? Join our 3-hour beginner-friendly workshop, "Introduction to 3D Printing," designed to help you dip your toes into the world of additive manufacturing using both FDM and SLA printers. In this session, you'll get hands-on familiarity with the basics, learning essential skills like preparing and optimally "slicing" your 3D files for high-quality, successful prints. We will demystify common challenges, such as handling support structures, overhangs, and choosing the right infill for strength or quality. By the end of the workshop, you'll be comfortable with the software interfaces and confident in slicing your own files, transforming from an intimidated beginner into a capable creator.
