December 3 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Our 3D printers can be used to transform an idea to a finished object using a 3D modelling software like Tinkercad, an easy-to-use, free browser-based program. At this workshop, we will be using math and code to design one-of-a-kind snowflakes for 3D printing. Your finished design will be printed on our 3d printers; however, due to the time it takes to print, participants will need to pick up their finished snowflakes at a later time. For grades 4-8.
