Step One
Read through the presentation linked below and complete the quiz at the end.
Step Two
Complete the following designs to demonstrate your ability to use the machines.
a) 3d Printer: Click the Tinkercad link below, it should open up a design for you to edit. Click on the text/name on the model and a small box should appear on the screen. Change the text to your name, then click "Export" and save everything in your design as an ".stl" file. Bring it in to the MakerSpace and successfully print it on any of the 3D printers.
