In the presentation I will give a brief introduction to concept of 3D Printing following showcase of various open source printers and free/open source software that provide a complete pipeline for personal 3D printing. I will talk about the process of 3D printing, including designing and modelling an object in Blender, slicing in Slic3r and finally printing it on an open source printer, this will also include various tips and techniques used to achieve best results. I am planning to bring my Printrbot Jr (V2) to the meeting.

I am a Computer Animation course graduate, 3D generalist and an open source software user. I have 3,5 years of experience using Blender 3D and 6 years of experience using GIMP. I have Recently attended LGM in 2013, Blender Conference 2012 and 2013 and a short talk by Richard Stallman in 2013.
