3D Printing and Mold Making
Norwood Viviano
Tuition $1,290
Code S1617-25
This intensive workshop is an introduction to Rhinoceros 3D modeling software, 3D printing, multi-part rubber mold making, and plastic casting. Participants will create 3D printed parts for casting and explore the possibilities of material transformation. During the workshop we discuss the role of computer 3D modeling, 3D output, mold making, and casting as it relates to industry as well as an individual studio practice. This workshop is structured to provide a productive and successful environment for students with no previous experience with Rhinoceros software, 3D printing, or exposure to rubber mold making and casting.
