What the week actually is

3D printing teaches patience in a way nothing else does: the model is wrong, the print takes four hours, and the fix has to be found before the next run. Children learn to check their work before spending time, which is a life skill disguised as a hobby.

Day by day

  1. Design in CAD, badly, on purpose
  2. First print, first failure
