I've tried learning Blender in the past and had little luck, but this was a perfect little introduction to how to use it. And the added focus on 3D printing helps teach good modeling techniques. Highly recommended.

I saw this course as a 4-week challenge, strictly following all the instructions step by step. To get the most of this training, students have to fulfill every task, including creating own designs and 3D printing them out. That's the only way to digest Blender in this crash course. Jason is very supportive and responsive, and great fun too!

Loved week 1, all information I had to find in several videos online before finding your workshop. Keep spreading the love with blender for 3D printing. Week 2 even better, if I've learned this much in just 2 weeks, can't wait to dive into the next 2. Week 3 continues to live up to the previous weeks of easy to follow tutorials and very exciting projects. I'm looking forward to and disappointed to start the last week of this beginner series. Well here we are, at the end of week 4. This 4 week class was amazing, I learned so much in a short amount of time and the teacher is just great, very patient and easily accessible. Look forward to more training videos and live podcast with you guys! Sad to see it end for me but excited to see it's future for you. Keep living the dream.

I was pretty intimidated by Blender before I took this course. This class really helped me to understand the UI and the whole Modus Operandi when prepping models for printing. There is not a lot of material out there for learning 3D modeling for printing in Blender and this really helped me out. Jason is really good at explaining the material and I honestly had fun with the course. I feel a lot more comfortable with the UI and can even use jargon and terminology with fellow modeling folks. I feel this served as a really good foundation for me. I can now understand and begin to follow other tutorials online. Its a really good class and it would be my first recommendation if anyone I knew wanted to get into the hobby as well. Thank you again to the folks who made this course!

Great course that covers so much, you'll feel you have made some very big strides in your Blender development/understanding. Jay covers a lot of very practical elements within the training modules, and glues them together with a very focused structure & logic. I'm looking forward to taking the next part of the curriculum. FYI: I never give 5 Stars/100% for anything, but if I could give a better score than 4 stars/80%, I would!!! And it would be 4.75 Stars/95% - Much Love, m1ck5k1 ;-/

J-Wall @ PrintThatThing

Instructor

Jayson Wall

Jayson (aka: Print That Thing) has been active in the 3D Print space since 2013. Better known as Jwall, he started as a youtube channel and expanded into STEM Mentorships, teaching kids how to 3D Design for the Nashville Public Library. During that time he helped organize the 1st & 2nd 3D printed art show in Nashville TN, Replication & Replication 2.0.  

In 2019 with an ambition to encourage more 3D Print Makers to learn to design their own work, he began PTT.live in hopes to expand the 3D print design curriculum available online. He's passionate about helping his students grow, learn, and experience their own brainpower. Turning ideas into things is a superpower and he's always looking forward to seeing what his students create!
