Start with the design decision, then choose the tool

3D printing & prototyping videos

Maker videos can make fabrication look like the first step. These selections instead help you connect a particular object’s design with a broader introduction to prototyping, before assuming that printing or machining is the right process.

A keyboard design case and a prototyping introduction

Adereth’s talk links programming, geometry and the design of a custom keyboard. Gelbart’s introduction opens a longer series about building prototypes. Choose the keyboard case for the path from a computational description to a physical object; choose Gelbart for the broader fabrication perspective. Neither is a complete CNC operation or printer-calibration course. Identify the functional requirement, fit and iteration you need before selecting a machine or copying someone else’s part.

Questions to take into the video

A personal ergonomic design is not a clinical guarantee, and a series introduction is not machine-safety training. Verify current tooling, materials and fabrication requirements separately.
