3D Printed Skis

To the FliteTest Community;

This episode features the use of our 3D printer and the design and testing of skis for the Apprentice. Following the Design Cycle we use as the process to create this product just shows that designing and creating with the 3D printers leads to endless opportunities. Once more and more students get trained using the software and printer, look for more 3D printed products to come from the MESArcFF program in the future.

Assembly was easy, now we need to go test it out.

 

After some compacting of snow, it took off for the skies, not all bad, revision to come.
