This is the follow up to Just enough Sketch-up to pretend you can 3d model

Things that were made

Evangelizing & mentorship from our leader M. klein

In progress, finishing top of print

Glance

WHEN 20th of April. Sketchup and Design Tutorial: 12PM, Printing Tutorial 2PM
DURATION Sketchup and Design: 2 hours, Printing 2 hours. You can come to both or either for as long as you like
LOCATION sudo room
PRICE $0
NUTSHELL First a no-experience-necessary Sketchup class. Then an explanation and tutorial on how to use the 3D printer itself.
INSTRUCTOR Max Klein aka notconfusing

Plan

Understand the workflow (Idea>Design>STL>Slice>Print).
IDEA a miniature plate for canapes and appetizers that is ring and allows you to hold a drink in the same hand.
DESIGN we'll make a 3d digital representation in sketchup
STL gloss over this detail and leave it for another class
SLICE gloss over this detail and leave it for another class
PRINT marvel, and take home.
Start a facebook group or mail list?

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.

Sketchup and Design

Introductions
- Level of 3d modelling experience (none required)
3D Printing Theory
Sketchup (many options, but this is easiest, not necessarily most powerful or precise)
- Navigation
  - Zoom/Orbit/Pan
  - Set views
- Basic Shapes
  - Rectangle/Line/Circle/Polygon
  - Precise measurements
- Shape Manipulation
  - Push/pull
  - Move vertice/edge
  - Rotate
  - Scale (
  - Scale -1 Trick
  - Offset
- Advanced Shapes
  - Group
  - Follow me
  - Outershell
- Misc
  - Tape/Erase
- Ready? Let's Make something. Learner's requests?
- Exporting
  - RBZ File
  - Instructions for Mac

Printing

Introductions
- Level of 3d modelling experience (none required), but you need a .stl file ready. (We make them in the earlier design portion of the class)
Slic3r slicing software (in a minor way)
- Sometimes can need NetFabb fixing
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 3-button scroll mouse. Sketchup is much easier with a mouse, and all but impossible to learn with the track pad. Essential, a mouse that has a clickable scroll-wheel.
Bring your own .stl to print, if you are coming just for the second half.

Attend

Add your name below if you know how, but you can also just show up on the day.

Requests

Write specific skills or questions that you'd like to have attention in the class.

Creative Arduino casings
Rabbit wants to know how to best adjust slicing & printing settings
Romyilano would like to exploring & modifying Art Institute of Chicago 3D printed objects - http://www.thingiverse.com/ArtInstituteChicago/collections/museum-love-in-3d/page:1
Romyilano would like to explore painting 3D printed objects - what is the best kind of paint to use? http://www.reddit.com/r/3Dprinting/comments/18xsqw/painting_3d_printed_objects/
Romyilano would like to invite cartoon artists from the San Francisco Cartoonist Conspiracy & see how we can do a "comic book jam" with drawings that works effectively with budding 3D printing artists--imagine having a cartoon and comic book artist help you make some cool doll!
