Who This Book Is For

This book is for novice designers and artists who own a RepRap-based 3D printer, have fundamental knowledge of its working, and who desire to gain better mastery of the printing process. For the more experienced user, it will provide a handy visual resource, with side-by-side comparisons of the two most popular slicers, Skeinforge and Slic3r.

A basic understanding of designing and modeling principles and elementary knowledge of digital modeling would be a plus.

What You Will Learn

• Use the 123D Catch program to 3D scan common objects of almost any size for 3D printing


• Manipulate the surface mesh of a 3D model using Meshmixer v9001, the 3D modeling program


• Clean up your scans and stitch them together to make a solid model using MeshLab v1.3.2


• Calibrate 3D models using SketchUp v13, a 3D CAD program for precision fabrication


• Master the controls of the two most popular slicers, Skeinforge and Slic3r


• Learn how to add textures to your models and avoid undesirable texture through calibration
