MORE ABOUT YOUR 3D PRINTER BUILD

With your own 3D printer, the opportunities are limitless! Plus, with the idbox from De Agostini ModelSpace, you get the satisfaction of building and understanding the finer workings of the technology.
If you can imagine a shape, you can print it with your 3D printer - the idbox! We'll help you through your 12 month subscription to build your 3D printer and understand how to use it!

Use your imagination, input the data into the 3D modelling software on your PC, then output on the idbox!

Once built, getting started is easy, let your imagination guide you:
Plan: Before you can print anything out on a 3D printer you need a design. Think of the piece that you want to make, sketch it and get ready to create a digital model. Stuck for ideas? The internet is full of ready-to-use digital models for you to download and print yourself.

Model: Designed on your computer, you can either create a digital version of your sketch using modelling software such as AUTODESK 123D. Whether an original idea or one you’ve downloaded online, you’ll be able to add your design to the software which converts the data into instructions that control how the printer deposits the material to make the model.

Print: Once the data is complete, it is output from the PC to the 3D printer. Start the program and wait for the shape to emerge...
The model is built up layer by layer starting from the bottom.

Finish: Your three-dimensional artwork has been created! We will show you how to polish the surface or add colour. Add a professional finish to your work!
