prusaprinters

<p>Challenge: Create and share a 3D design that celebrates the contribution of the Tuskegee Airmen and/or other African American Pioneers in Aviation and Space with the hashtag #TuskegeeAirmen. List this design as a source for your model.</p> <p>A search for 3D printable models related to the Tuskegee Airmen or other African American pioneers in aviation or space returns 0 hits. This is no surprise given previous experience searching 3D repositories for models related to Martin Luther King, Jr. <a href="http://designmaketeach.com/2014/01/16/3d-printing-martin-luther-king-jr/">http://designmaketeach.com/2014/01/16/3d-printing-martin-luther-king-jr/</a></p> <p>The lack of models provides a rich opportunity for students, educators and 3d designers to make a significant contribution to the world.</p> <p>My contribution is a 3D printable version of the patch of the 332nd Fighter Group. The design uses an image from Wikimedia <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Shield_of_the_332nd_Fighter_Group.svg">https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Shield_of_the_332nd_Fighter_Group.svg</a> which was edited in Inkscape and then imported and remixed in Tinkercad.</p> <p>Read the whole story about this design challenge at <a href="http://designmaketeach.com/2016/01/27/tuskegee-airmen-3d-design-challenge/">http://designmaketeach.com/2016/01/27/tuskegee-airmen-3d-design-challenge/</a></p> <p>This thing was made with Tinkercad.
