3D Printing with a HEART (or perhaps club?)
By Paul Mignone
Yesterday saw a fantastic initiative held at the University of Melbourne. House of Cards, a socially responsible cafe promoting community well being, teamed up with MAP applicants Katie Ewing and Jin P'ng in hosting a 3D printer on site.
Jin and Katie getting ready for the peak hour coffee rush!
They’re keeping their cards ‘close to the chest’ (pardon the pun), but Katie and Jin certainly have big plans for 3D printing in the hospitality industry. For three hours they spent educating bystanders on the benefits of the technology, as well as conducting surveys and offering prizes.
These two never miss a beat!
The initiative was certainly a win/win, as it attracted both a lot of interest for their project and increased foot traffic for the cafe. We at ResBaz are certainly looking forward to their MAP presentation in a couple of weeks time, and many more attendees at the next drop-in session!
Stay tuned…
If you’re local, feel free to drop by! #3dprinting #digismith pic.twitter.com/hI0uc2oaRB
