Learn

On the right you'll see some examples of what I've 3D printed at sudo room, having learned all my skills at sudo room, from sudoers.

• 3D Printing Theory
• Sketchup
  • Navigation
  • Basic Shapes
  • Shape Manipulation
  • Advanced Shapes
    • Exporting
• Slic3r slicing software (in a minor way)
• Repetier Host Printer Software (in a minor way)
• How to manually adjust the 3d printer in times of crisis.

Bring

• Come with a laptop with sketchup installed. There's a free version for Windows and Mac. If you don't have this installed, you cannot begin immediately.
• Bring a mouse. Sketchup is much easier with a mouse, and all but impossible to learn with the track pad. Essential.
