Maker Basics: 3D Printing

Curious about turning your ideas into tangible objects? ​In just two hours, you'll: ​Discover how FDM 3D printing works and what you can create ​Get familiar with our lineup of 3D printers: 2 Prusa i3 MK3S+, a Bambu X1C and a Bambu H2C ​Learn about different filament types, how to load and unload them and which jobs are appropriate for which printer ​Learn basic design software techniques to shape your ideas into physical forms ​With practical demos, examples, and a few creative challenges, you’ll leave with a strong grasp of these technologies and the confidence to bring your own projects to life. ⚠️ This workshop focuses on basic tools and techniques.

It’s a maker space, creative workshop, and hardware lab, right here in Neukölln. ​The 150sqm FabLab is split into two. A dirt lab with woodworking and metal working equipment, perfect for making dust and loud noises. Across the hall, you’ll find a clean lab equipped with a 3D printer, laser cutter, and textile lab where your electronics or more delicate projects can come to life. ​Our space was created to provide fair access to equipment, training, and community for students, experienced makers, and garage inventors alike.
