About This Class
In this class, you will learn the essentials for producing your first 3D-printed project. You do not need your own 3D printer. The class will focus on using third parties, such as Shapeways.com, as a service provider for your prints. You will practice choosing the best material for the product you want to create and you will practice iterative refinement to improve your product.
