3 D Printing

f you enjoy designing, making and seeing your ideas come to life, 3D Printing Club is for you. You’ll learn how to create your own 3D designs and use our Bambu Lab 3D printer in a calm, friendly group.

What’s it like?

At 3D Printing Club, you’ll start by using Tinkercad, a simple and fun way to create 3D models. As your skills and confidence grow, you’ll have the opportunity to move on to Autodesk Fusion and explore more advanced design techniques.

You can follow a project, experiment with your own ideas or work alongside others. There’s no pressure to already know what you’re doing — we’ll guide you through each stage and help you learn at your own pace.

You can:

• Create your own 3D designs using Tinkercad
• Learn how a 3D printer turns a digital design into a real object
• Develop your skills and progress to Autodesk Fusion
• Experiment with shapes, ideas and different ways to solve problems
• Work on projects independently or alongside other young people
• See your designs come to life using our Bambu Lab 3D printer
