Non-fiction book review - 3D Printing and Maker Lab for Kids

3D Printing and Maker Lab for Kids by Eldrid Sequeira

I'd had some introductions to 3D printing previously but the approach had always been either the basics of how the printers worked or the ways you might use them in library programming. I'd never had anyone explain to me how to program what you wanted to print. This book is more than a how-to. It doesn't teach the user just how to make a particular object. Instead, Sequeira walks us through a series of basic shapes and suggests ways you can combine them to make more complex objects. Once you have those simple ideas mastered, anything is possible. I'd call this one an essential for any maker space that includes a 3D printer.

More Information: 3D Printing and Maker Lab for Kids releases February 25.
