Summary:
This
hands-on
book shows you how to make a wide variety of physical objects with the amazing
MakerBot
3D
printer. When you need a replacement for something lost, broken, or no longer made -- like a knob on your stove. You can make things instead of buying them, or solve problems with inventions of your own. The possibilities are endless, and
MakerBot
is the fun,
affordable
, and inspiring way to go. Set up your
MakerBot
Replicator 2 and understand how it works. All
MakerBot
prints start with a digital design -- a 3-D model of your object. MakerBots print in thermoplastics -- either ABS (Acrylonitrile butadiene styreneor) or PLA (Polylactic acid). Learn the basics and print 10 useful objects right away. Make objects with sturdy yet biodegradable PLA. Get examples of real-world problem solving, from ceiling hooks to hermit crab shells. Choose from thousands of free designs on Thingiverse.com -- and share your own. Repurpose disposable products by making them part of your design. Design your own
3D
objects, using SketchUp, Autodesk 123D, OpenSCAD, and other tools. Use
3D
scanning technology to replicate real objects around you.
