Presenter Information

John Fink, McMaster University

Description

The Sherman Centre for Digital Scholarship, a digital scholarship lab and academic makerspace in Hamilton, Ontario, owns and uses a variety of 3d printers. As any technology in its relative infancy, they have been a combination of delightful and infuriating. Over the past year, we have done a significant amount of testing and tearing them apart in order to better understand how they work. In this session, I'll show you what we've learned.
