Santa Monica Public Library invites you to explore the world of 3D Printing on Saturday mornings at 11:00 am during the month of December 2017 in the Main Library’s Computer Training Room, 601 Santa Monica Blvd. Every weekend there’s something new to experience:
Saturday, December 2: Design in 3D: Winter Snowflake
Those interested in the ongoing series are encouraged to attend this first session, a two-hour class that offers a brief overview of the 3D printing process and a lesson on how to design your own snowflake decoration using Tinkercad, a free web-based modelling tool. Skills learned can be applied in future labs to create a variety of fun and useful 3D printable objects.
Saturday, December 9, 16, 23, & 30: Design in 3D: Open Lab
On subsequent Saturdays, those with a basic knowledge of the 3D printing and design process can drop in during these two-hour sessions dedicated to 3D-making and exploring. Staff will be on-hand to help with basic trouble-shooting and to facilitate the 3D print request process.
These programs are all free and open to the public. Space is limited and on a first arrival basis. For more information about this and other Library programs, visit www.smpl.org.
