3D Printer


We have a 3D printer now !!  We have been learning how to use TinkerCad to create 3D designs. TinkerCad is an amazing programme to create interesting designs. You have to know how to make holes in shapes and how to join two shapes together.  I am looking forward to seeing how my creation turns out on the printer.

  1. Hi Holly,

    That is so cool having a 3D printer! Is it easy to use tinkercad and do you make a design on there and print it on the 3D printer? Is the 3D printer easy to use? That is so cool though! And could you maybe post a video of how it works from the start by using tinkecad to printing it?

    1. HI Kate - Tinkercad is easy to use once you get the hang of it. I haven't used the 3d printer yet but am looking forward to having a go printing my design.
