3D printing is such an exciting and relevant technology in our world today. Parts for ventilators & Face shields for the Covid-19 crisis are two great examples. Bloodhound LSR has several parts made using this process in different materials.
Here is a great way of practically learning about Additive Manufacturing (adding layers) and having a lot of fun too.
Basic Craft 3D Car Resources:
You will need:
Scissors
Glue Stick
A4 Foam or cardboard from a small delivery box
Car template
Instruction PowerPoint for step by step guide, video’s and other free resource links.
Key Learning Outcomes:
You will:
be able to gain an understanding of the science and process of printing components using a 3D Printer
understand how components are developed using CAD or laser scanners and then 3D Printed
be able to create their own 3D object (out of foam) following the Additive Manufacture principle
