Back to School!

So, school started back yesterday. I was excited and sad. Excited to see my friends but sad to not have my freedom to +MAKE and build etc. The school got alot bigger - we are up to 60 kids now! +ASU Herberger Young Scholars Academy!

BUT.. +Maker Faire New York and +Maker Faire Rome  are soon.
I hope everyone is excited and ready to show and see awesome projects.
I just got my acceptance to show my 3d body scanner in New York...now I just have to finish it! :)

Also the +OpenHardware summit is right before +Maker Faire New York!

Last night I did get to work on +Andrewprice Architecture Academy. I learned a lot. +Blender Users

Off to school!

Afinia Printer Update

I've had my +Afinia (www.afinia.com) printer for about 3 weeks now. Unfortunately, right after I got it I had to go out of town. So, I guess that's really 2 weeks. Anyway...

The printer is A-Mazing. Not only did it work right out of the box, I've been printing like crazy! 
I can start a print and them go do something else - it will be fine!

I've printed, cookie cutters (8), Dr. Who dalek's, a tardis, earrings for my mom, gears for my friend, chocolate mold, 3d scan of ME, etc.

If you are considering a 3d printer -

AFINIA is my WINNER!

Recap of +Siggraph 2013

I'm home from +ACM SIGGRAPH I had a great time. I meet so many cool people i can't name them all.




I have to say special thanks to a few: Professor Collins, Michael, Don, Aubrey and Proffessor Clark. I couldn't have gone to SIGGRAPH without you. Thanks :) Hope to see you all in Vancover!

Also, +Wacom Americas for the awesome tablet. I've been working with +Blender Users on it - great! +Epson for printing awesome posters, +PrimeSense for helping make my scanner even cooler!



I meet one of my idols of +Blender too. @andrewpprice He is really nice and hung out a bit with me! This is a scan and print I did.

 

I got to be apart of a 3d panel. it was fun answering questions and scanning people.


They had these cool roaming robots. My grandparents got to see me. They were in New York!


My mom +Julie Hudy  had some crafty fun. She changed one of the ribbons for her! She also made some crafty things. Her idea of the +MAKE robot.


 Here is me with me scanner


After +ACM SIGGRAPH we got to go see my Aunt. My sister, her friend and I had fun shooting marble at a target. 
Come on - I am 16!


I'm sure I've forgotten something. So many cool people!
