I went to the Edge in the library to learn how to make models to 3D print. I used a program called sketchup, it's a free 3D model program. Its a little confusing at first, but after a little bit you start to get the hang of it. There was a bowl of miscellaneous 3D printed objects on the table and two of the objects were topographical maps, which could be useful for a geography class. It would be very useful for an engineering or shop class. Patrick, the guy who was helping me, had used sketchup to design speaker shelves for his room. I actually went home and downloaded it so I could play around with it more.
