Re: [school-discuss] 3D printing software



Laura,

I was excited to see your post about 3D printing.  I am not a public school teacher anymore - just homeschooling one of my dyslexic kids - but am looking forward to trying 3D printing soon.  A great fan of "instructables.com," I came across this tutorial last summer.  All of the software used is free.  This guy made a bobble head doll of his own head!

The printing website for this tutorial is . . . http://shapeways.com.  Blender is one of the 3D packages that they accept for their uploads.  I used Blender for 5 years as a teacher and hope to use it to create drapery hardware really soon.  (I will use the Gimp and Inkscape to create my fabric design for http://spoonflower.com).

Such fun,

Marilyn

Here's Dmitry's reply (I've bounced your query to him and you'll hopefully receive his message in its original form either):
Please thank him for the info.  I did add some of these morning so
looks like we're on the right track.  Hope to add other suggestions
from his list soon.
