We kicke d off with a high-level overview of what 3D printing is and how it's use d. Then\, we took a look at updates in the industry and talked about how we\, as a community\, can work together. Next\, Rigado Systems\, maker s of Lumenplay\, showed us how 3D printed parts allows them to be respon sive to their customers' needs. RapidMade showed us the kinds of product s they can make in short order and gave us advice on how to prepare your products to be printed. Lastly\, ProtoPasta told us the story of their Kickstarter for desktop 3D printer filament\, made with polycarb and car bon fiber. \;\n \;\nIn March\, we'll take a look at the tools\, i ncluding an in-depth look at 3D scanning and 3d printed prosthetic hands ! \;\nAgenda follows: \;\n0600p : 3D printing for Beginners \ ;\n \;\n0630p : Networking over light food/beverages \;\n \;\n0 730p : Intro \;\n \;\n0710p : Show your projects OR \;\n Community Q&\;A - Shout out a question\, get it answered \;\n \;\n0750p : Sklyr @ 3Digitize.us talks about the state of the ar t in 3D scanning\, with a LIVE demo! \;\n \;\n0810p : Ivan Owen te lls us the story of creating prosthetic hands and joining the e.Nable pr oject! \;\n0810p : More Networking! \;\n \;\n \;\nNote 1: W e also had a LARGE number of printers (including a delta!) represented a t our Feb meetup. If you'd like to bring a printer\, please contact the group organizer\, so we can set aside table space. \;\n \;\nNote 2 : If you have a project or business you'd like to talk about\, please co ntact the group organizer by private message. We're looking for 15-20 mi nute presentations. Slides aren't necessary\, but we have access to a pr ojector and plenty of table space. Good examples would be demonstrations of a new technique/tool\, an overview of a service you provide\, a uniq ue project you've modeled/printed\, etc. If you know a great speaker\, p lease refer them! \;\n \;\nPlease share this with your network an d bring your imagination and enthusiasm. We'd particularly like to get p eople from bigger corps that are using a lot of 3D printing in their des ign process (looking at you Nike and Intel :)\n\nTags: 3D Printing\, 3D Printers\, 3d modeling\, Sketchup\, Solidworks\, Makerbot\n\nImported fr om: http://calagator.org/events/1250465862 URL:http://meetup.com/Portland-3D-Printing-Lab/ SUMMARY:Portland 3D Printing Lab LOCATION:ISITE Design : 2030 NW Pettygrove Street\, Portland OR 97209 US SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
