Event Info

Do you think 3D modeling has to be expensive and time-consuming? Are you curious about 3D printing but unsure where to start?

This workshop will introduce participants to the exciting world of desktop fabrication. We’ll provide a brief overview of current trends and tools for 3D modeling and printing, followed by a hands-on demonstration of basic printer operation. We will also discuss various types of 3D models and the best practices and equipment for bringing them to life. While not necessary, participants can bring a laptop to get better acquainted with the software we’ll introduce.

Instructor: Julia Schrank

If you can’t make this session but would like to learn more about 3D printing, please visit our the student consultants in our Makerspace or email scholarslab@virginia.edu to set up an individual appointment.
