Nuts, Bolts & Thingamajig's                                       3D Printing Manufacturing Camp 

Clark State Community College in partnership with Nuts, Bolts & Thingamajigs will offer a FREE summer manufacturing camp for students ages 12 through 16.

The camp will be offered June 3 – June 7 at the main campus of Clark State in Springfield, space is limited to 12 students.  Students will learn to use 3D modeling software to design and print a TIC-TAC-TOE board and pegs. Students will then have the option to machine a metal version of the board and program a robot to "play" a game of TIC-TAC-TOE.  Students will get to take home all of the projects they create. 

Students will utilize 3D modeling software, 3D printing/additive manufacturing, manual mill, manual lathe, robotics, CNC mill, CNC lathe, CAD/CAM, and artistic design skills for hands-on activities, including the creation of a product from start to finish using manufacturing techniques and equipment. Local manufacturers will also give presentations, and camp participants will visit local manufacturing facilities. 

 Scholarships for this camp have been provided through the generous support of:
