This summer I have worked two camps doing 3d printing, or "Making and Tinkering". The first camp was in June. We partnered with 3d Parts and 3d printing company in Indianpolis. Students started off making name tags. They learned the safety aspects of printing and how to design 3d files in Tinkercad. These were called stl files. Here are some camp pictures.
Lots of collaboration going on.
No Boys Allowed! Wow some students were able to print their own creative ideas once they were finished with a project.
Prints took anywhere from 10 minutes to 2 hours to print. The waiting was hard.
The options are endless. Car parts, bookmarks, light boxes, bats...
Middle school students worked in groups to print a car, add a motor and battery and race them.
