This 90 minute workshop designed for people who know nothing about 3D printing.  

The first hour of the workshop will cover:

    -What is 3D printing?
    -Types of filament
    -How a 3D model is made?
    -3D printing software
   - Makings and learning from mistakes

The last 30 minutes of the workshop will be dedicated to making a lithophane from an image to be printed on the printers in the Makerspace. Please note that lithophanes take a long time to print and  will not be printed during the workshop. They will be put in the printing queue for participants to pick up at a later date.

It is recommended participants bring their personal laptop with an image (jpg or png) no larger than 3x5 inches  to convert into a lithophane. Laptops will be provided for those that need one.

This workshop is limited to 5 participants.

The workshop will take place in the KU Libraries Makerspace (203 A-C), located on the 2nd floor of Anschutz Library. If you are in need of accommodation, please contact the KU Libraries Makerspace  - libmakerspace@ku.edu.
