occasionally (normally freely downloaded from the web), it does not need to be purchased separately, and so needs no further consideration. Because 3D design is ubiquitous – used for games, architecture, product design, etc. - the software can cost a considerable amount of money and be extremely complex. Both these aspects have been carefully considered when suggesting software for use within 3D4VET. In addition, although many professional software packages have educational licences, these are not available to individual users, thus limiting the use of the 3D4VET materials, which were also meant to encourage individual learners. We therefore require selecting only from software published by major suppliers, which include a free option for hobbyists and students, such as Fusion 360 Design. The slicing software is specific to 3D printing, to take 3D design files and convert them into printable layers, based on the resolution required and the capabilities of the 3D printer. Again, there are fortunately free and excellent programs available, like Cura. are a large range of 3D printers available, covering a range of sizes, consumables they can use and ease of use. The cost is much lower for a kit, but some very expensive printers also can be quite restrictive, even though they may appear polished. In order to reduce the risk of failure, the 3D4VET project requires to use a standardised model that can be unpacked and start running with the minimum of assembly. For consistency and specicifity of developed course material, 3D4VET are recommending the printer used be based on the “Prusa” design which has been reproduced by many manufacturers, and a specific recommendation is the Anycubic Prusa I3. Finally, a number of different consumable materials can be used to 3D print. In the field of prototyping, PLA and ABS are the most frequently used. 3D4VET recommends the use of PLA as it is generally safe, and does not give rise to fumes.
