Additive manufacturing for everyone. Introduction This book seeks to offer a general introduction to 3D Printing technology, and explores the underlining technologies, usage, and applications of this technology. Readers need not have any prior experience with 3D printing or prototyping to use this book. It may also serve as a handy reference for those familiar with 3D printing. 3D printers contain a number of functions that can be dangerous in some instances. Therefore safety is an important aspect of operating a 3D printer. Never operate a 3D printer without receiving proper training from an expert! Local schools, makerspaces, and other educational institutions often offer such training.
