3D Printing & Graphic Design Workshop
As part of our pilot tests, we have been experimenting a new hands-on activity around 3D printing and graphic design. The 3D portrait activity goes beyond the 2D to 3D activity that has been created for Makerspace4Inclusion. It allows participants to manipulate their own photos and vectorize them to later obtain 3D solids.
Vectorial Drawing Workshop
The makerspace4inclusion team at Digijeunes presented a new diy machine at Michoun elementary school!
The kids learnt about vectorial drawing, gcode; they challenged our horizontal plotter in a drawing competition to see whether man or machine is most efficient at reproducing a drawing. ….Machine won this time, but the kids are eager to improve their drawing skills and compete against our horizontal plotter next time!
Digital cutting Workshop
In Ghent, a group of teenagers at Timelab has explored laser cutting, 3D printing, vynil cutting to customize t-shirts and other gadgets.
