  2. In Tinkercad, check with Mr. G for verification of completion
  3. Export & upload to Astroprint and slice with appropriate settings
  4. Wait your turn to print
  5. If your design fails to meet the requirements or solve the problem, modify your design & check with Garcia before reprinting.
  6. Make a new post in your portfolio titled: 3D Modeling & Manufacturing
    1. include an image of your design from Tinkercad & one image of the finished product
    2. Include in the reflection: 
      1. What is this, 
      2. how did you make it,

Resources from Last Week:

Learning how to 3D print - We'll do this together for today's lesson
  1. Create or download your design
  2. Review your design 
    1. size
    2. overhang
    3. workplane adhesion (will you need support)
    4. export your design as a .stl file to a slicer program.  We'll use AstroPrint - make an account.  Create an account with your Google student info.
    5. import your design into your slicer program
    6. verify your printer, print settings, print material, and the amount of material needed to print your project.
    7. download your design to an sd card or connect your printer to the printer.
    8. print your project.  Keep an eye on your project

Checking & printing your design

In your project reflection, estimate the cost of your print using these variables:

PLA material cost - $.03 per gram

Electricity Cost/minute - about $.01 per hour

Labor costs - $50 per hour
