3D printing is a method of creating a object.

Just as a printer paints ink onto paper, a 3D printer paints a plastic-like substance into a surface and then builds layers on top. Think of it like a pastry bag but in three dimensions. So instead of a gingerbread house with icing being painted on top, think of the entire house being made of that icing.

This is just to house some 3d printing/scanning-related notes.

This isn't the full extent of my notes, which are scattered across who knows where. Oh well.
