We wanted it to fit into his collection and so designed together with a pot. He was the one to give us an idea to make a 3D printed cactus. He has a collection in the office and at home.
One of our colleagues is a huge cactus fan. TinkerCAD (access to 3d modeling component as well as an account) Computer or laptop with reliable internet access. Tinkercad is a free app that equips the next generation of designers and engineers with the foundational skills for innovation: 3D design, electronics, and coding. Cactus and a Pot Cactus Design in Tinkercad
It is fun to remix ready designs, for instance, to place a random head onto a well-known character. Sometimes what we predicted to fail worked out very well and visa verse.Ī great feature is that it is possible to open STL files in Tinkercad and redesign them. With more complex objects we had to go back to the drawing board several times. Test file 3D printedģD printing own designs is quite exciting. In the picture below the object served to check the stringing of ABS filament and to learn acetone vapour smoothing. Later this design was used to test new filaments. We wanted to make sure that it could turn our creation into STL 3D printable file. We used the shapes available in Tinkercad. Our first 3D design was very simplistic: a cylinder and a hexagonal prism towers. (Image: 3DWithUs) Tinkercad – The Best 3D Design Software For Beginners It is very intuitive and it is also browser-based. As we were looking for a 3D design software for 3D printing, it had to be able to convert the design into an STL file. During the workshop you will create an Autodesk account, learn to use the Tinkercad interface and its workflow to design a model, and understand the print settings of traditional 3D printers.It takes a lot of patience to figure out the options and even the navigation. In this workshop, we model an Archimedean Screw in Tinkercad and 3D print it using Educational Technology’s Lulzbot Mini printers.
