"Forging Entrepreneurs" Presenter Spotlight
 Chris HentzThe Possibilities of Digital Fabrication in a Small Metals Studio: Flat Pattern Development vs. 3D PrintingHentz presents a variety of ways to use the Rhino CAD program as illustrated through his studio practice. He will talk about his methods for converting a 2D hand drawn sketch into a Rhino CAD drawing illustrating a 3D form. That 3D CAD drawing can be used to create a 2D flat pattern for traditional metal fabrication. Or that same drawing can be used with a variety of 3D printing processes.
This is just one of the presentations that will take place at Forging Entrepreneurs! See all presentations. SNAG's 2014 business symposium, "Forging Entrepreneurs: The Inside Track," is for artists running independent studios looking for skills and information on how to better run their business.
