This MakerBot Learning Tip explains what MakerBot Desktop is. MakerBot Desktop serves as the utility where you pick your print settings, and translates your 3D files into the language of your 3D printer.
This video is part of the Speedy Architect Project by MakerBot Learning. The 3D printed parts were designed in Tinkercad. As an extension activity, prompt students to design their own connector pieces to improve their design.
The video takes you through manipulating contrasts on a photograph, converting to SVG, and finally importing and sizing in Tinkercad. This conversion process can be used for making many custom shapes from drawings in Tinkercad, not just for this lesson! This video walkthrough is paired with the Art Connector Set (SVG Conversion Project) found on Thingiverse.
