3D Printing and Prototyping
This course provides an introduction to designing objects for 3D printing
using Tinkercad. In this course you will learn to digitally develop simple
3D objects and prepare them for successful 3D printing. You will walk
through the basics of 3D modeling in Tinkercad, from adding and
grouping 3D shapes to creating and duplicating patterns. You will explore
the tools and features one by one, and then learn to use the Tinkercad
tools to create more complex geometry. You’ll go home with your
completed 3D printed model and the knowledge of how to create digital
3D models.
Note:
Bring a USB flash drive to class so you can take your files home.

Solidworks: 3D Modeling and Engineering
Explore the world of 3D modeling, design and engineering with a
focus on real-world applications while leveraging one of the world’s
leading CAD/CAE software packages from Dassault Systems, SolidWorks.
This introductory course will provide the student with an overview of
mechanical design concepts, the 3D design and engineering workflow,
as well as the features and capabilities of the SolidWorks CAD/CAE
application. Classes are held in FCC’s new Makerspace equipped with 3D
printers, a laser cutter and CNC router. Though not a primary objective of
this course, the knowledge gained can be applied towards preparation for
the Certified Solidworks Associate exam.
Note:
A textbook is required for this class. Purchase textbook from FCC
bookstore prior to class start.

Power On! Electronics Basics
This hands on workshop uses breadboards to teach electronics
fundamentals and prototyping of circuits. Students experiment with
simple components and build simple circuits. Along the way they’ll
be introduced to the fundamental concepts of electrical engineering,
including Ohm’s Law, signal flow, as well as basic circuit analysis for
analog circuits, and afterwards take home their completed project and
kit to use and practice their skills.
Note:
Kit required for this class. Purchase kit from FCC bookstore prior to
class start.
