Introduction to 3D Printing - Astrophotography and 3D Printing are even better together!

The introduction to the 3D printing hobby that you've been looking for is finally here! I'll cover all of the basics I wish someone taught me before I started investigating this hobby on my own. Plus, pairing 3D Printing with my love of Astrophotography makes it even better! I’ll take you through the basics of 3D modeling and Slicing, 3D Hardware types and components, helpful tips and beneficial upgrades, plus a review of typical filament types as well. If you have ever been curious about 3D printing, this video will help you decide if it is right for you. Then, ... if you want to learn more about astrophotography too, stick around and watch some more videos!
