Your First 3D Print: Thingiverse & Makerbot Replicator

#baldguysci #edchat #kicksomeclass So you are ready to get your first 3D print to the Makerbot Replicator BUT you are a tad overwhelmed by the design process. There is a magical land of Thingiverse that comes in to share ready-to-print designs with you. In this video, I'll show you how to find something interesting on Thingiverse that you can simply print. How to install the MakerBot Replicator Slicer software. How to slice and export a file to be printed. Lastly, we will walk through the printing process for the MakerBot, using a USB drive. We can take a look at the files using TinkerCAD. I sometimes do this to learn from others or modify and customize designs from Thingiverse. https://www.makerbot.com/3d-printers/apps/makerbot-print/download/ https://www.thingiverse.com Share this video with a friend: https://youtu.be/y7yTUi4ABdY Connect with us on social media and our new Blog *COMING SOON: Instagram – @BaldSci Twitter – @BaldSci Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BaldSci/ http://www.KickSomeClass.com For more inspiring Monday Motivations check this playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVRsuUSMut4cqq5CrozTeeEVZ0usbDigP For Home experiments and science lessons, check here - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVRsuUSMut4fz4-GK8j6n3e61PP8ecgC9 For Teacher Tech tips, tricks and tutorials, check here - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVRsuUSMut4f3JA-C8-9J2gTYrYPij3Qe Subscribe for more awesome science experiments, tutorials and teacher tips: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4YMRl8OHvnzWU9GEiVak7g?view_as=subscriber?sub_confirmation=1 We hope you enjoyed this video and found something to research, question, do, or design!
