Program: DIY 3D Printing: Hardware & Software
Speaker: Ed Nisley, ed.nisley@ieee.org

About the topic:
The hype cloud surrounding do-it-yourself 3D printing conceals
a simple reality: DIY 3D printers transform mathematical
descriptions into plastic parts. Ed Nisley will describe 3D
printer operation, survey some affordable printers, and explain
the process that produces useful (or perhaps amusing) objects
from the mathematics of solid models.
Notice: There will be tchotchkes!

About the Speaker
Ed Nisley worked for IBM during the final Good Old Days, quit
before it became fashionable, and has worked on interesting and
useful projects ever since. He writes columns for Circuit Cellar
and Digital Machinist magazines, tinkers with hardware &
software, and frequently produces useful doodads. Being that sort
of guy, he rides a recumbent bicycle festooned with customized
plastic parts.
