Multi-color print for AP Biology presentation showing anatomy of the knee #3Dprinted on Bambu Lab X1C from MatterHackers. #makerspace #MakerspaceLife

Using Formlabs resin 3D printer to create functional ergonomic keyboard prototype for entrepreneurship pitch. Designed in Tinkercad, initial iteration printed on FDM printer #makerspace #makerspacelife

Getting nerdy in the #makerspace. New software for school scanning electron microscope outputs height map & heat map. Printed height-map on UV printer w/10 gloss layers & then color heat map on top. Textured print 0.015” tall so you can feel surface. #MakerspaceLife

Spent way too much time creating custom scale wall textures for culinary class to use for restaurant design project. Also iterating different keycaps on resin printer for entrepreneurship group developing an ergonomic keyboard. Busy day. #makerspace #MakerspaceLife

Designed a sticker sheet for participants of the FLL Explore Faire hosted by ACL RoboLoCo at the Academies of Loudoun today. #makerspace #MakerspaceLife

Production mode engaged on earth science manipulative. Using digital fabrication to turn a class long paper craft into a quick hands-on exploration. #3dprinter #vinylcutter #makerspace #makerspacelife

Procraftinating by making some stickers for School Lunch Hero Day! #makerspace #MakerspaceLife

Some TLC for the #makerspace loaner Prusa3D Mini+ #3Dprinters. New handles, labels & firmware updates. Printing eppendorf tube holders a teacher needs for a lab on Monday as test prints. Updated firmware makes them faster than when new! #MakerspaceLife

On a busy day in a #makerspace it is hard to find time to document all the projects before they go out the door. Sometimes the only metric you have for success is the amount of cleanup at the end of the day. #MakerspaceLife

Spring dance decorations using open space in the #makerspace. Original setup had this area full of machines. #microbits light strips with some simple coding as a first step to microcontroller fun at future events #makerspaceLife

Indirect viewing of eclipse using a 3D print. #3Dprinting #makerspace #makerspacelife

Using the Roland Graphic Transfer System to place UV printed graphics directly on #3Dprinted classroom manipulative prototype & water bottle. Exploring new techniques & workflows in school #makerspace #makerspacelife

Helping a teacher prototype an earthquake fault manipulative using Roland BN-20A print & cut vinyl on base #3Dprinted in spiral vase mode to reduce material use & print time. Working on sequential printing to do multiples #makerspace #MakerspaceLife

Thank you Protolabs for new shelf copy of The 3D Printing Handbook. It has highest circulation in Academies of Loudoun Research Library since we opened in 2018. Old copy was falling apart. #3DPrinting #makerspace #makerspacelife

3D printing lots of things at once on the Prusa3D XL! Covid virus models in 3 different sizes for a student medical project display. Organic supports in Prusa Slicer are really nice & easy to remove. #3dprinting #makerspace #makerspacelife

Working on modeling & print settings for multi-color #3DPrinting on the Bambu Lab X1C #makerspace #MakerspaceLife

Hand me down from Pharmacy program makes for a decent filament storage rack for our Ultimaker 2.85mm filament. Gonna need a storage system for Prusa XL and Bambu X1C 1.75mm. Multi-material printers means lots of colors AND filament types. #3DPrinting #Makerspace #MakerspaceLife

When you log into Tinkercad after being away awhile and find a design that you thought no one needed was a staff pick and has been remixed 1,400 times! #3Dprinting #makerspace #MakerspaceLife #ZeroThings

Staying late to finish project for a student. They should be doing but not time to teach them skill or for them to complete project during school day. #makerspace #MakerspaceLife

When you stay late trying to crank out parts needed for tomorrow and the one specialty bit snaps! #makerspace #MakerspaceLife
