This primer webinar will introduce you to the basics of how to get started with 3D printing. We will cover topics including the different parts of a 3D printing setup (software, hardware, supplies) and share our experiences in using 3D printers for daily projects and personal interest activities. Attendees do not have to have any prior experience with 3D printing. There will be a Q&A session as well as live demos (what can go wrong!?).
