Thanks for your interest in SLA101: Introductory Anycubic Resin 3D Printers! This free beginner-friendly course is intended to be an easy introduction to the exciting world of 3D printing. As part of the 60-minute course, you'll learn how to operate some popular and affordable desktop SLA ("stereolithography") resin 3D printers, and even start your very first 3D printed project!
Today, 3D printers are used across a growing list of industries, from movies and museums to mechanical engineering and the Met Gala. You’re just as likely to see this technology in dentist’s offices, construction sites, and Michelin-starred restaurants as you are to find them in schools, libraries, and small businesses. As 3D printing continues to skyrocket in popularity, it’s increasingly important to understand how these machines work and how you can apply 3D printing technology to your own personal and professional interests. More importantly, it's our goal to highlight how easy 3D printers can be to use, even for folks who don’t consider themselves particularly tech-savvy. No coding or programming required! If you can operate a paper printer, chances are you can easily operate a 3D printer.
