This is a 6-week course at our El Dorado Hills lab, not a self-serve print counter. Small class room size. Instructors will follow each individual's pace to provide appropriate guidance and tutoring. Kids design in Tinkercad, print on our lab printers, and take every project home.
Frequently asked questions
Is this the El Dorado Hills Library 3D Print Lab?
No. The library is a self-serve print lab. It's a great service that is offered by the library but it assumes some knowledge of 3D design and printing. Ours is a taught 6-week class: design in Tinkercad, print here, take projects home.
Do you take kids from Folsom?
Yes. The lab is in El Dorado Hills, about 15 minutes from Folsom / Broadstone.
Is this a coding class?
No. Kids learn CAD in Tinkercad and 3D printing, not Scratch/Python.
Do kids take the prints home?
Yes, every project.
Do they need software at home?
Tinkercad runs in the browser. We'll tell you what they need on the first day.
