3D printing workshop at Camberwell: The Digital Practice Exchange at CCW

cfollows — Thu, 17 Dec 2015 15:00:28 +0000

The CCW Digital Makers group were invited along to see the the progress of their 3D printing experiments at the digital media department at Camberwell, this was our second Digital Practice Exchange meeting.

The 3D Printing Introduction session was delivered by Matthew Edwards, great to hear an in-house 3D printing expert (in the making) talk about the journey staff have taken exploring the world of 3D printing using their ULTIMAKER 2, printers CCW are keen to explore in the other colleges too in the new year.

During the session talked about different types of 3D software, materials used in 3D printing, types of 3D printers and had a quick demonstration how to set up and send files to a 3D printer (Ultimaker 2).

We had lots of new tips and insights which I'm keen to explore further as part of of 'Pop Up MakerSpace' project and build a CCW 3D printing group.

So top 5 tips to note were:

Elmers Washable School Glue Stick - perfect for helping the printer material make contact with the surface
3D printing files: STL or OBJ files - Start with a Good .STL or .OBJ Exporting Your Model as .STL or .OBJ http://formlabs.com/support/software/start-good-stl-or-obj/
Cura: helps you to prepare your files for print. CURA AND 3D PRINTING - https://ultimaker.com/en/products/cura-software
Useful Website: Thingiverse - download pre made designs for printing some creative Commons licensed
3D Software to try: Blender - Solid works - http://www.solidworks.co.uk/ - Cinema 4d

Recent visit to BETT show uncovered a couple of interesting/usful/creative Tec that would be good to add to UAL wish list!

The 3DTouch™ printer and RapMan™ printer kit, packed with best-in-class features including multiple print heads, intuitive touchscreens and USB storage. Priced under $1,300, more students can access these innovative educational tools to design.

Seems UAl are already there - What is FABLCC ? FABLCC is a learning and teaching initiative based at the London College of Communication (LCC) focused on digital fabrication technology. A digital fabricator (or fabber) is a machine that builds (layer-by-layer) three-dimensional plastic objects from digital data. Click here to see a time-lapse build video of our MakerBot Industries Thing-O-Matic in action. This associated website provides a space to showcase past/present projects as well as a mechanism for LCC students/staff to submit future project ideas ... encouraging developments driven by bottom-up ownership, à la Fab Labs, not top-down planning. http://www.fablcc.com/ For more information, please contact: Tim Fransen Digital Media Technology Technician London College of Communication University of the Arts London - t.fransen@lcc.arts.ac.uk
