(*) Previous knowledge

We do recommend basic/intermediate skills in Grasshopper3d with some understanding of data-trees and tree structure as well as FDM 3d printing basic experience. 

This course is based on the instructor`s book  Advanced 3D printing with Grasshopper: Clay and FDM, a recommended option as guide with many examples. Therefore this course is a good complement to it, that extends it and could solve some doubts.

PROGRAM

The course is scheduled in 6 modules, 3 per day:

Module #1 is an introduction to G-Code’s structure, firmware, FDM 3d printing and its configuration inside Grasshopper in its most common workflows.

Module #2 understands the main G orders in G-code and we will set a first file in Grasshopper for custom 3D printing using spiralized mode.

Module #3 is related to visualization, non-planar 3d printing with isocurves and the consequent variable flow.

Module #4 adds more complex features as bases, travels and retractions in Grasshopper.

Module #5 works on wavy models, attractors using pictures, and wireframe mode.

Module #6 explains some study cases, as well as some time for questions and doubts of the attendance.

FAQ

  • Are sessions recorded?

Sessions are live. Due to time difference or particular situations we will RECORD the sessions, but they are available only until the next session starts in order to follow the pace.

  • How can I access the sessions?

Some days before the course starts, you will access to the course platform. There you can download documentation, files, go to the Zoom sessions and comment or ask questions using the panel discussions. The recorded sessions will be available there too.

  • And Mac users?

Grasshopper is almost the same in Mac and Windows, so for this course it is not a problem.
