Join Technology and Makerspace Librarian Sarah Quinn and learn the basics of Tinkercad. Tinkercad is a free, online 3D modeling program that uses the constructive solid geometry method of building 3D models. Sarah will teach you the basics of Tinkercad as she guides you through a project. 

We will use Tinkercad on the public PCs, so all participants must have a basic understanding of how to use a computer. Due to the time it takes to 3D print, participants will return to the library at a later date to pick up their 3D-printed models.

July's project is a key hanger with customizable text at the top.
