Formatting and Coloring 3D Models for Printing

Formatting and Coloring 3D Models for Printing In-Person

Add COLOR to your 3D models using Prusa Slicer (the software used at the Creative Maker Studio to format 3D prints). In this workshop participants will learn how to import, scale, and orient 3D designs for optimal print results, as well as apply color using Prusa Slicer’s powerful tools. This workshop aims to share a focused session on preparing models for high-quality, multi-material printing through hands-on practice. By the end of the session, users will understand how to transform any 3D model into a vibrant, ready-to-print file with up to 5 colors. This workshop is ideal for anyone looking to elevate their 3D printing projects and get them ready to print on the Creative Maker Studio's new Prusa XL Multi-Material 3D printer.
