KS3 STEM Club tests out new 3D Printers

The KS3 STEM club are creating imaginary creatures by combining features of a mammal, a starfish, and a bird. They first designed their creations using the 3D design program Tinkercad, before transferring them to our brand-new, state-of-the-art 3D Bambu printers, which use biodegradable different coloured plastic.

Some of the models were printed in as little as 1 minute and 10 seconds.

If you are interested in joining the club, we meet on Mondays 3.05pm-4.05pm in C9
