Just passionate about 3D printing- but can’t do CAD!

Yup, that’s me! Is it you too?

Briefly my story ….

I am Ann Marie Shillito. This is why I went from

designer maker to software entrepreneur!

• designer maker jeweller• hands-on making in series• industrial technologies for

limited production• digital designing • laser cutting, 3D printing• founder/CEO: Anarkik3D Ltd • 3D modelling software

1990 Research: laser cutting titanium, niobium for jewellery in series •High end engineering software:

– Manage 2D digital designing – just!

– First hear about 3D printing

1997: learn 3D CAD: •TriSpectives, TruSpace •frustrating, soul destroying experience•1st 3D print in wax for casting

•1998: 2nd 3D print : ABS

•1999: Research Fellow at Edinburgh College of Art

Remit: investigate CAD products for better experience for designer makers

Struggle to learn Rhino, design coffee table, prototype it

2000: apply AHRC: major funding for Tacitus Research Project …

‘Tacitus’ Research Project 2000 – 2004

investigating haptic technology as a more intuitive way of working digitally in 3D for designer makers/applied artists

2007: spin-out company from Tacitus research

2010: Product: Anarkik 3D Design•Accessible haptic 3D modelling software

•For designer makers, artists, •Creative persons, all ages

• non-CAD users

To 3D print successfully, you need a good digital 3D model: 1. you can download someone else’s 3D model2. you can ‘scan’ an object ….. or yourself3. you can use software programmes to convert data into a 3D form4. you can create it yourself from scratch …

Collaborate with others: open source element dress by Dutch fashion designer Anouk Wipprecht •Open invitation to all to download, edit base file of particle through the TinkerCAD base template•Aim: collect about 150 parts created around the world, linked together into a item for Fashion Show

CAD: great tool - amazing what designer produce with it. Same with processing programmes, i.e. Grasshopper and mathematical algorithms .

The complexity of the work is wonderful. This though can be as intimidating to the non-CAD user as the CAD packages used to create the work!

• move & rotate objects & world in 3D

• manipulate, deform: feel and see interactions

• scale, construct, subtract: serendipity as default

• Export file formats: direct to 3D printing

• To some CAD (e.g. Rhino)

To quote Peter Dormer:“It is not craft as ‘handicraft’ that defines contemporary craftsmanship: it

is craft as knowledge that empowers a maker to take charge of technology.”
