Last week we had our #3d modelling workshop with the international group. We learned about the basics of 3D design and printing, made individual designs, helped each other on the way..and had a few laughs. It was such a nice bunch. Thank you guys!🤩

Lately we had so much fun with our international group on #lasercutter workshop! We learned about #2ddesign , operating the laser cutter and different materials.
We all clearly shared the passion for #making , and we were blown away by the beautiful designs! Thank you guys.🥰

We are happy to see people getting excited about #digitalfabrication ! One of our workshop participants has continued on her own, and made some beautiful designs. For the laser cut lamp she designed and 3D printed butterflies and used some left over pieces of acrylic. Cool idea!

#throwback to late November when we had some #digitalfabrication fun with people from Kulttuurivoimala. With a very skilful and creative bunch we designed and manufactured reflectors and canvas bags with #vinylcutter, and keychains and lanterns with #lasercutter. 🫶

An awesome #vinylcutter workshop with this happy bunch of participants from #oulunoske. Laughs were had, #digitalfabrication skills were acquired, cool bags were made. Which one is your favourite?

[Make4Change @Make4Change]

This week we continued adventures in #digitalfabrication with Oulu youth workshops! The participants can now rock #inkscape and learned how the #lasercutter works, and how different settings affect the outcomes. We made some unique lanterns to brighten cold november evenings 🥰

[Make4Change @Make4Change]

After basics of #inkscape, #make4change moved to bigger and better things: participants from oulu city youth workshops designed bags with #vinylcut stickers to represent their workshop! Here are some examples of the process: from paper to computer to vinyl to heatpress to awesome
