Creative Bookazine 3D Make & Print Sixteenth Edition Back Issue

3Dprinting is completely changing the world, and with 3D Make & Print you can start changing it too. From 3D-printed organs and prosthetics to tools that have been printed in zero gravity on the International Space Station, not to mention some of the incredible sculptures that redefine what it is possible to achieve in a physical medium, 3D printers are being used in almost every industry to transform the way that we do things and lead us into a bold new future. What’s more, this technology doesn’t just belong to a select few – with desktop 3D printers now cheap enough to be within reach of every home, and open source projects like RepRap and Blender providing us with the hardware and software that we need to build 3D printers and make models ourselves, you can join the 3D printing revolution today and start breathing life into your own designs, making them a 3D-printed reality. To help you get there, we’ve teamed up with 3D modelling and printing experts iMakr so that we can teach you all of the skills you’ll need. Drawing on iMakr’s wealth of experience and the amazing 3D models on MyMiniFactory, its curated platform for sharing 3D models in the community, we’ll show you how to pick a 3D printer to use, how to set it up and run your first print, and how to create your own designs in the best 3D modelling software available. Excited? Let’s make a start!
