Cary Busby is the instructor at a 3D printing camp run by the Muse Knoxville
<http://twitter.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b0d96d6922fc3d15968a652b4&id=db2e0b6ac0&e=aeb4540283>,
a children's science museum in Knoxville, TN. Using a MakerBot Replicator
2, she teaches students ages 9 to 14 about 3D design, focusing on
industries that use 3D printing, like prosthetics and automotive design.
Students leave with "a new appreciation for the possibilities of 3D
printing and additive manufacturing and how it is affecting our community,"
says Busby.
