Machines in Motion: A 3D Printing Design Program

Students dive into vehicles, gears, and moving parts, all built by hand in 3D.

Each week introduces a new mechanical concept, from hinges that swing and gears that mesh to cranks that turn and cams that push. Students design vehicles that fly, float, or glide (jets, rockets, boats, hovercraft), then apply what they've learned to build working mechanisms and, eventually, a capstone project of their own design.

Perfect for students ready to go beyond basic shapes and explore how things actually move. Small class sizes and low instructor to student ratio (max 8:1) mean every student gets hands-on support as they design, print, and problem-solve their way to a finished machine.
