    All classes are to create a Power Point (minimum 5 slides) on the history of 3D printers.

    1. This should include the first engineer to build a 3D printer as well as when it was built.

    3. Name three common filaments (materials) used in 3D printers (liquid, solid, etc.) and give examples.
    4. Where are 3D printers being used in society today (what industries - list two examples).
