For UNCA students, faculty, &amp; staff only! (No experience required) Fab Nights are a series of weekly 3-hour workshops provided by the UNCA STEAM Studio. In each session, participants will receive our general safety orientation, a tour of the space, and an in-depth tutorial for the processes and tools required for each weeks' project. The instructors may be STEAM Studio staff or our well-trained student workers! Fab Nights are an especially great way for UNCA students to learn tools and machines at STEAM Studio without taking a for-credit class. All levels and disciplines are welcome to join! This class will introduce you to basic concepts of 3D models, 3D scanning, and 3D printing. We will use the 3D scanner and turntable to scan objects or even our own heads, turn them into 3D models, clean them up with some 3D modeling software, and then send miniature versions to the 3D printer! The prints may not finish during the session, so please plan to pick them up the next day or at another later date. Before you attend, please familiarize yourself with our rules and procedures:<ol><li>Please wear closed-toe, closed-heel shoes to the workshop. If you arrive in any other footwear, we will not be allowed into the work space. </li><li>You must wear safety glasses in the work space.
