Keep the 3D Printers Running!

Help me give my students more chances to print and keep our CTE project going! With the new stepper motor and the Creality upgrade, our second printer will be able to auto load and print without tinkering.

My Project

Students are using multiple CAD software platforms to learn about the prototyping process, 3D modeling, 3D Printing, Engineering and much, much more! With our new setup, I am training a small group of students that are then teaching other students how to use cutting edge tools and how to produce professional grade products.

Combined with the tools we already have running, I plan to build this program out until we reach a new Middle School level Career, Technology and Engineering program that will propel our kids into wonderful careers!

I look forward to bringing in parents and professionals to share their skills and teach my core groups of student leaders so that they can share that learning forward.
