Level up your 3D design and printing skills and apply them to real-world projects

3D printing has come a long way since the early days. It's now more affordable, more accurate and more reliable than ever, giving everyone the opportunity to try this amazing technology. In The Raspberry Pi Guide to 3D Printing Projects, we cut through all the fuss and jargon and get down to what really matters: taking an idea from a 3D design file and turning it into reality. We'll explore what you need to know in order to make your prints fast, strong, and efficient, and give you the knowledge to make your prints the best they can be.

Along the way we'll identify and fix the most common errors in 3D prints; get to know the parts of your 3D printer and understand how it works; explore the range of different filaments and their applications; and what to think about when you're designing a model to be printed. We'll look at slicer software, the program on your computer that converts a 3D design into code that the printer can understand, and explore post-processing options to give your prints the professional look.

Whether you're a hobbyist looking to add a new string to your bow, a student, or a professional in search of new skills, this book will set you on the path to mastering 3D printing. We'll explore what you need to know in order to make your prints fast, strong, and efficient, and give you the knowledge to make your prints the best they can be. Forget science fiction - the future of manufacturing is here, ready for you to discover!
