3D4E USC
USC's Largest 3D printing community
3D for Everyone (3D4E) is USC’s largest 3D printing community. We help beginners learn the fundamentals while giving experienced members the space and resources to continue exploring 3D printing, computer-aided design (CAD), and additive manufacturing.
Free membership • No application • No prior experience • No minimum time commitment • All majors welcome
01 / About us
3D for Everyone (3D4E) was founded on the belief that everyone should have access to 3D printing. Our members can learn printer operation, Computer Aided Design, and 3D modeling while receiving the support they need to turn their ideas into physical designs. Ultimately, we are here because we love 3D printing and want to share it with others!
02 / What we do
Every week, on Wednesday, 7pm-8pm, 3D4E hosts workshops for members to learn practical skills in CAD, Addctive Manufacturing, 3D modeling, printer operation, slicing, and design for manufacturing.
Open to everyone. Attendance is not required for membership.
Collaborate on semester-long projects that solve problems, explore new ideas, or serve the community. You can propose and/or join existing projects. We fund projects. We will guide you through your ideas and check in weekly if you need help.
The goal is to collaborate, experiment, and build something that interests you. Have Fun!
Every April, we join with the chapters from other universities, including UCLA and Utah, to host a showcase of all the things club members have made. Get inspired and learn about other projects!
Visitors and friends are welcome—you do not need a finished project to attend.
03 / The lab
We have a lab space where members can learn to use printers including the Prusa CORE One, ELEGOO Neptune Max, and Bambu Lab P1S. Lab activities are completely optional and are not required for membership.
