<p>This week on Makerbot TV: they show you how to calculate the cost of printing materials for any given object and begin to discuss the environmental implications. In your opinion do you think 3D printing helps or hinders the environment. </p>

<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>Does anyone have recommendations for 3D design software that has been used in the Classroom that work with 3D printing weather it be using a Makerbot or other product. I'm currently experimeniting with Google Sketchup and have used <a href="https://tinkercad.com/" target="_blank">TinkerCad</a> with a Makerbot? However, I wonder if there are other recommended platforms to try out and if so, would love to see some projects made by students.</p>
