Printing Club & Los Robles Tech
At Los Robles we champion technology and are constantly innovating so our students get to know the latest techniques.
3D Printing & Design Club
Learn to use the leading software for running 3D printers, such as CURA, CHITUBOX and PRUSA SLICER, and discover how to adjust and optimise print settings with the Technology Club's printers. You'll also get a taste of professional design using Blender, a powerful 3D creation tool.
Blender: your 3D creation tool
- — Modelling: Turn your ideas into detailed three-dimensional models. Design characters, objects, tools or anything else you can imagine.
- — Editing: Adjust and customise your creations until you get the result you want.
- — Rigging: Add a skeleton to your models to change their poses and bring them to life with movement.
What can you create with Blender and 3D printing?
Custom figures
