3D Printer
We now have a 3D printer for students and teachers to use! If you've never done any 3D modeling before, try
tinkercad.com
- it's a web-based app that lets you get started creating fast. Once
you're ready for the next level try SketchUp, 123D Design, and Blender,
which are all found in the Software Center (accessible from any school
computer). You can also access and print the huge about of
things others have created by going to
thingiverse.com. Whether you create it yourself or download it, make sure your file is in
.stl format
and bring it to the Media Center on a USB drive. Mr. Brush will help you prepare the file for printing!
Prints are
free for things you design yourself and cost $1 per hour of printing someone else's design. Got more questions? Come ask!
Our library sign-up sheet is now on a
Google document to
make it easier for you to see availability and sign up!

New Books

students that those are ready to check out and enjoy.
Also, we are putting

suggestions of books to add to the order.
