Description
Mastering 3D Printing LiveLessonsteaches the fundamentals of 3D printing, including how to design objects using free, open source 3D modeling software and use a consumer-grade desktop 3D printer to turn a 3D model into a physical object.

In this video training, you learn how to master 3D printing and move from ideas to objects! Dave Seff starts with coverage of how 3D printers work and then shows how to create a 3D model (beginner and advanced lessons), slice (prepare for printing), and then print a 3D model. Seff also covers troubleshooting problems when they arise.

About the Instructor

Dave Seffis, professionally, a UNIX/Linux engineer. Beyond that, he has studied electronics, computer design, computer programming, mechanical design, and machining in both school and via self-education. He prides himself on building his own tools and machinery for the purpose of fabrication and manufacturing. He has built many CNC (Computer Numeric Controlled) machines, including three desktop 3D printers of his own design.
