Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students love learning more and more about additive manufacturing, with these tools students would be able to build more elaborate projects with moving working parts. More and more students are coming to our 3D Printing club wanting to learn what we are doing.

This project will fund tools to increase their skills in 3d printing to unlock their imagination of what can be done.

Looking to get the students accessories they can add to their prints such as magnets, screws, hooks, and pins. This project will also provide tools like sandpaper and calipers to make parts that can fit together with greater accuracy. Students will also be able to use materials they have not seen with color shifting that could lead to stunning and unique creations.
