Practical Exercises:
- Study the interface and basic tools in the CAD software.
- Study 3D printer(s) including print heads, build envelope, materials used and related support removal system(s).
- Review of geometry terms of a 3D mesh.
- Commands for moving from 2D to 3D.
- Advanced CAD commands to navigate models in 3D space
- Design any four everyday objects Refer to web sites like Thingiverse, Shapeways and GitFab to design four everyday objects that utilize the advantages of 3D printing
- Choose four models from a sharing site like Thingiverse, Shapeways or Gitfab.
- Improve upon a file and make it your own. Some ideas include:
- Redesign it with a specific user in mind
- Redesign it for a slightly different purpose
- Improve the look of the product
- Use the CAM software to prepare files for 3D printing.
- Manipulate machine movement and material layering.
- Repair a 3D mesh using
a) Freeware utilities: Autodesk MeshMixer (http://goo.gl/x5nhYc), MeshLab (http://goo.gl/fgztLl) or Netfabb Basic or Cloud Service (http://goo.gl/Q1 P47a)
b) Freeware tool tutorials: Netfabb Basic or Cloud Service (http://goo.gl/Q1P47a), Netfabb and MeshLab (http://goo.gl/WPOVec)
