      I want to buy a 3D printer for a school, to let all present & future students have a chance to 3D print!

      It’ll be a little printer, like this one:

      Students could print stuff for fun (like keyrings, models, or even a model of the school!), but they could also use the printer to help with learning: they could print animals and microorganisms in biology, molecules in chemistry, castles in history, artworks in art & design.. the list goes on! And all while printing things, the students would be learning engineering skills!

      I would make a competition to decide which school would get the printer, to make it fair. Something like “Describe in 300 words or less how a 3D printer would help your school!”
