About the Expert

I am currently a student who makes who works with 3d printing. I have worked with my specific 3d printer, the Wanhao i3 V2 for about a year now and have enjoyed every moment of it. I found 3D printing extremely hard but fascinating from the beginning however I believe anyone who even has the slightest interest should learn more about it and see if they can “connect” with it. I mainly got into 3d printing by seeing people make these incredible things, and I thought to myself, I have to do this. Now, that dream has come true, and I have the ability to work on amazing projects for clients and myself alike, such as BB-8 from Star Wars, the Force Awakens.
