3D Printer

Help me give my students a 3D printer so we can create models from our own designs to be used to demonstrate Newton's laws of motion and the nature of science particularly in particle or nuclear physics.

My Project

I’m reaching out to ask for your support in bringing an exciting new tool to my physics classroom: a 3D printer. As an educator, I strive to create engaging, hands-on learning experiences that spark curiosity and deepen understanding.

A 3D printer would allow my students to design, build, and test real-world models, everything from prototypes of simple machines to parts for physics experiments.

It’s a powerful way to connect theoretical concepts with tangible applications.

Your donation would help fund the purchase of a reliable, classroom-ready 3D printer, along with the necessary materials and maintenance tools. With this resource, my students can explore engineering principles, improve problem-solving skills, and bring creativity into science in a whole new way.

No contribution is too small, every dollar brings us closer to making this a reality.
