Vacation Program

  • Wednesday, April 15, 2015
  • 9:00 am – 3:00 pm
  • Designed for ages 11 and up

Get an introduction to the basics of 3D printing and Computer-Aided Design. Using Autodesk's free, powerful web-based TinkerCAD, design a "head" and "feet" to turn a common household item, the humble cork, and into a new friend. What could be a better way to learn CAD programs than to have a 3D model printing out in front of you?

We will be signing up for free accounts with Autodesk's web-based "123D" design software. An e-mail address is required for this workshop.
