3D Printing
This term in technology, we have been working on 3D printing. We started off by looking at a website called Tinkercad, where you can create 3D models of pretty much anything. I started by making a name tag. We also learnt how to import a photo from online using an online file converting website onto Tinkercad and modify it, how to export the model, group it together and send it to be printed. If the model didn't fit on the 3D printer (which it usually did), it would be scaled down, which would cause some of the detail to look less detailed.
After this we looked at another website called Thingiverse. This website allowed you to look at other 3D printed objects that people of made, and import them onto Tinkercad. From here we would then modify and personalise the models and print them.
Using acetone, we found we could also melt some of the plastic back into place if it had been slightly messed up in the printer. I also designed and made a 3D printed piano.
