3D Printing: Day 2

What does a 3D printer make?

• An image with length and width.

• An object with length, width and height.

• An image with length.

Where do you design your image for the printer?

• On Kahoot

• On Facebook

• On Google Classroom

• On a CAD program

What does CAD stand for?

• California Aided Design

• Coffee Adds Dimension

• Computer Aided Design

• Coconuts Are Delicious

3D printers work by...

• adding 100's of layers (additive manufacturing).

• designing shapes.

• printing paper.

• remove edges.

What materials does the 3D printer use?

• Glue

• Slices

• Filament

• Extruder

True or False: You can print a camera with a 3D printer.

• True

• False

True or False: You can print some parts of a camera with a 3D printer.

• True

• False

What type of filament do the 3D printers in STEM Lab use?

• ABS (petroleum-based)

• Google SketchUp

• TinkerCAD

• PLA (plant-based)

What is a best benefit for using PLA over ABS?

• It comes in different colors.

• It saves you $2 per spool.

• It uses renewable resources.

Which part of the printer allows the filament to exit (leave) the machine?

• The build plate.

• The base.

• The nozzle.

• The filament tube.
