3D Printer Basics (Adults)
Learn the basic parts & functions of a 3D printer and its operation, how to change materials and best practices. FDM or Fused Deposition Modeling is the most popular and easiest to use form of 3D printer. By melting and laying down strands of plastic filament, a model is built layer by layer.
You'll become familiar with Simplify3D to prepare the file for the 3D printer. Also learn how to download files (or use your own) and prepare them to be 3D printed.
