A great way to expose kids to modern engineering and reuse of plastics. Great (patient) tour guide. Interesting to adults and kids alike.

During the tour, Charlotte gave me an inside to re:3D. The tour was very interesting and detailed. And, it was a great fun, too. Not to mention the 2-feet rocket.

I took my six year old grandson on this tour, and could not have been more pleased. Charlotte was especially accommodating as our host, and never talked "down" to him. She welcomed his questions, encouraged his curiosity, and interspersed the tour with hands-on activities. He has not stopped talking about it, including making a marble, snowflakes, and has been taking his rocket everywhere to share. We added this to our already planned tour of the Space Center, Galaxy Lights, and Lunch with an astronaut. What was the highlight of our little vacay from his perspective? The re:3D tour!

As a mechanical engineer, designing components out of plastics, I had a lot of questions about the capabilities and limitations of 3D printing, and they were ALL answered. (Some of the answers saved my company from pursuing 3D printed plastics in ways they really are not designed for at this time.) I was even allowed to borrow a sample of the different kinds of plastics and rubbers that they 3D print to show my boss. And if that were not enough, I was allowed to take home some samples in the form of an all 3D-printed-plastic spring-driven toy car. I would highly recommend this free tour for engineers who are just starting to use 3D printed plastics and rubber. It also would be a very informative and entertaining hands-on field trip for Boy and Girl Scouts, and even adult groups wishing to see the latest in new technology. And for those considering buying an industrial type 3D printer, as a hands-on primer to the industry, this tour is a must.
