My Project

Help my gifted education students continue to be successful and creative designers and engineers. Our current 3D printer is outdated and no longer manufactured, making it impossible to repair.

A new 3D printer will allow the students to use their artistic skills to design and print their own unique creations.

My students have flourished when given the freedom to use 3D design software, but having to wait days for a project to print diminishes their excitement.

Please help me keep that spark of excitement lit throughout my whole unit of design and engineering with this 3D printer and filament!
