Learn to use the Makerspace for scale airplane modeling.

It's hard to believe the Wright brothers' first successful flight at Kitty Hawk was 123 years ago this December! Commemorate the anniversary by learning how the resources in the Makerspace can be used for model making. From making wing ribs on a Cricut cutter, to 3D printing propellers, the Makerspace can provide you with a variety of different methods and materials that you can use to take your modeling to the next level! Feel free to bring a model you are proud to show off.

Room for 8 modelers.
