You too can be like 7 other people who who have already pledged their

Recall from the
calendar,<https://sudoroom.org/ai1ec_event/today-i-learned/?instance_id=52225>and

   - *LOCATION* sudo room <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Getting_there>
   - *PRICE* $0
   - *NUTSHELL* Live Sketchup and print tutorial
   - *INSTRUCTOR* Max Klein aka notconfusing <http://notconfusing.com>

Plan

   - Understand the workflow (Idea>Design>STL>Slice>Print).
   - *IDEA* a miniature plate for canapes and appetizers that is ring and
   allows you to hold a drink in the same hand.
   - *DESIGN* we'll make a 3d digital representation in sketchup
   - *STL* gloss over this detail and leave it for another class
   - *SLICE* gloss over this detail and leave it for another class
   - *PRINT* marvel, and take home.

Learn

On the right you'll see some examples of what I've 3D printed at sudo room,
having learned all my skills at sudo room, from sudoers.

   - 3D Printing Theory
   - Sketchup
      - Navigation
      - Basic Shapes
      - Shape Manipulation
      - Advanced Shapes
         - Exporting
       - Slic3r slicing software (in a minor way)
   - Repetier Host Printer Software (in a minor way)
   - How to manually adjust the 3d printer in times of crisis.

Bring

   - Come with a laptop with sketchup <http://www.sketchup.com/> installed.
   There's a free version for Windows and Mac. If you don't have this
   installed, you cannot begin immediately.
   - Bring a mouse. Sketchup is much easier with a mouse, and all but
   impossible to learn with the track pad. Essential.
