My Project

I'm working on creating a 3D printing lab in my classroom that my students will use to print our their CAD projects. This project was created to help us get our FIRST 3D printer and filament (the printing material).

My robotics students are intelligent and very tech savvy.

They create 3D designs in on various websites and need an in class space to brings their creations to fruition. Access to a 3D printer and filament in our classroom will allow my students to design and print parts for their robots, create team spirit materials for their competition teams, and produce materials for their other classes as well.
