Design, Print, Repeat 1/2: Personalized Desk Nameplate — 3D Printing for Beginners
A practical introductory 3D printing workshop for complete beginners. In the first workshop, you’ll create a simple model (a personalized desk nameplate), prepare it for printing, and start printing during the workshop. If printing isn’t complete by the end of the session, you’ll pick up the nameplates at the second workshop. The workshop is designed as a two-part series — we recommend attending both sessions.
About This Workshop
From “I’ve never seen a 3D printer” to “my model is ready to print”
This is a practical introductory 3D printing workshop for complete beginners. The goal of day one is simple: for everyone to create a small printable object and prepare it for 3D printing.
We’ll start with a quick trial example so you can immediately see what the printing process looks like and what to pay attention to. Then everyone prepares their own small object: a personalized desk nameplate, customized with your text and style. Finally, we’ll print the first projects together during the workshop.
On the first workshop, we’ll start printing (trial example and first projects). If some objects aren’t finished by the end of the session, you’ll pick them up at the second workshop.
What You’ll Learn on Day 1?
- FDM 3D printing basics (short and clear): what the printer does, what filament is, and how an object is created layer by layer.
- Complete process live: model modification → export → slicing → sending to printer.
- Design rules for reliable printing: how to create a model that prints quickly and stably (without complicated settings).
- Project: you’ll create a personalized desk nameplate.
Important: This is a two-part workshop. Please register and attend both sessions (January 14th and 15th) to complete the experience.
Why Sign Up?
- For beginners: no prior knowledge of CAD or 3D printing required.
- Concrete result: you’ll leave with knowledge and a file ready to print, and pick up the finished object at the next workshop.
- Practical and clear: you’ll see the entire workflow — from idea to 3D print.
How Will Projects Be Printed?
We’ll start printing at the first workshop. If some objects aren’t finished by the end of the session, you’ll pick them up the next day.
To keep things faster and more reliable, we’ll print in one filament color, which we’ll choose by a quick vote at the start.
About the Instructor
The workshop is led by Miloš Rašić, M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. With a focus on robotics and biotech, Miloš bridges the worlds of hardware and software to help participants understand the development process of advanced technological products. Through extensive experience working with industrial drones, robotic systems, and telemedicine, he demonstrates how engineering theory translates into functional innovations and successful startup projects.

Design, Print, Repeat 2/2: Make a Phone Holder — 3D Printing for Beginners
The second session of the two-part 3D printing workshop for beginners. We move on to a new project: a phone holder. Through hands-on work, you’ll see how model orientation and basic settings affect print quality and success.
DNA Under the Microscope II: Gene Therapy Today – Possibilities, Limits, and Ethics
After discovering in the first workshop how DNA is “repaired” and what the basic gene therapy techniques are, it’s time to go deeper. Here we move from theory to what’s already happening in medical centers around the world – to diseases currently being treated with gene therapy, as well as the ethical questions this technology raises.
Mini STEM Garden 1/3: The City as a Garden – From Idea to Smart Technology
The first of three workshops combining ecology, technology, and hands-on work. In this workshop, you will learn about urban gardening and its role in modern cities, as well as the technology that makes it smarter and more efficient.
Mini STEM Garden 2/3: Indoor Microgreens – Light Control Technology
In this workshop, you’ll plant microgreens and learn how proper conditions directly affect their growth. Through hands-on work, you’ll connect biology and technology, using Arduino for automatic light control.
Mini STEM Garden 3/3: Smart Garden in Action – Automated Microgreen Watering
In this workshop, you’ll connect everything you’ve learned so far and build a functional smart gardening system. You’ll use Arduino to control microgreen lighting and watering, relying on real environmental sensor data.
