3-D Printers in the Media Lab

Mat Davis and Ultimaker printerMat Davis successfully applied for a Ready to Learn STEM grant.  While you’ll have to wait with baited breath for all that we are getting, two new 3-D Ultimaker printers arrived today.

Alyssa and Kennedy from Future Engineers were on hand to help Mr. Davis unpack the equipment and get it working.

Mr. Davis’s very first 3-D printed item was the Ultimaker Robot.  Sooo cute and sooo amazing!
