Getting the Most Out of Makerspaces to Create with 3-D Printers

by Nicki Peter Petrikowski

3-D printing allows for the creation of nearly any type of object, from an entire house to a human organ. Now with makerspaces, collaborative engineering workspaces, virtually anyone can utilize these printers to make anything they can dream up. This book shows young people just how. With information on where to find makerspaces in their local community to the latest types of 3-D printers available, this resource grabs the interest of engineering-minded students and sets them on course to excel in STEM classes. This book also includes examples of interesting beginner projects to create and print at a makerspace.
