The MakerBot Replicator 2 3D Printer recently made a guest appearance at Toy Burst 2013 at Redefine Gallery at The City Arts Factory in downtown Orlando.  The printer was a big hit!  It was our first experience in introducing the 3D printer to artists and we enjoyed hearing their ideas about using 3D design and printing in their work.  As you can imagine, our 3D Design and Printing classes continue to be very popular here at the Orlando Public Library.  If you would like to see what all the fuss is about, come on in and take a class.   On Saturday, August 3, we have 3D Design and Printing Level 1 at 10 am and the Level 2 class will follow at 11.30am.

So come visit us at the Orlando Public Library!  We look forward to seeing you in class!
