Nano Puzzles

Today we went over in class the following presentation. Due to the shortened class, we will review this information when we reconvene on January 3rd.

I am adding to the presentation so it is a work in progress. Here is a sampling of what we covered:

• 3D printing is a two step process:
1. Create a 3D model using a CAD program - OnShape
2. Slice the model using slicing software. - Cura
• The type of filament that we will use in our 3D printer. 
• PLA - Polylactic acid
• What .gcode (geometric code) is.
• Working in 3-Dimensional Space i.e. the difference between 2D and 3D 
• Understanding planes and faces in a 3D environment

If you have not created an account on OnShape then you should do that before our next class! 

Have a wonderful break!!!!
