Here are some helpful resources for TEVO Flash and TEVO Tarantula 3-D Printers
Read MoreSpecial thanks to Norwayne Local Schools for letting us come to the Elementary School Library and introduce some creepy crawly technology to these 4th graders! Prior to the arctic blast, twenty students learned about potential careers in 3D Printing, 3D Animation and Engineering Design, all while using 3D Pens to create motorized bugs. We also want to thank Teri Hall, Brian Miller and Gavin Maibach for helping out as volunteers. Great to see these creative minds at work!
Read MoreExcited to reveal a new video on Schantz MakerSpace and the Maker Movement! Get an inside look at the excitement and energy taking place right here in Wayne County, Ohio. Our maker community continues to grow in members, projects and missions. In just our first year as a non-profit organization, we've offered 20 workshops, serving more than 250 students. We've built over 100 3-D Printers, 30 computerized lights displays and 20 CNC Routers. We not only built the machines, but we taught the students how they work, how to use the software, and how to incorporate machines into their businesses. We served four different school districts, bringing our programs into the schools to teach the next generation of makers, and will expand to include more schools next year. Join us and be part of the movement in 2019. What will you create? Special thanks to the folks from MAGNET and Akron Video Makers for their hard work on the video.
