3-D Printing

Hey @Raymond_Milligan Many VEXers utilize a variety of 3D drawing programs depending on personal preferences and the complexity of the design. A popular choice is Onshape because it offers a range of tools suitable for both beginners and advanced users, in addition to having a parts library of VEX pieces. Tinkercad, also by Autodesk, is another great option, especially for younger students since it’s more user-friendly and intuitive. Most of these programs will allow you to save your drawing as a .stl file, which is used in any of your run of the mill slicing software to 3D print it! In addition to all this, check out this thread in which a student designed, modeled, and 3D printed their own cable organizer, which is pretty sick!
