Program Description
In this two-part workshop, teens will design, print, and build their very own wireless speaker. In the first session (October 4), you’ll learn the basics of 3D modeling, create a custom speaker cabinet using design software, and prepare a 3D file by "slicing" it. In the second session (October 11), you’ll assemble and wire the internal components — learning how wireless speakers work from the inside out.
No experience is needed — just bring your ideas and a love for music or making!
You’ll Learn:
- 3D design and "Slicing" basics
- How speaker enclosures affect sound
- How to wire and connect speaker components
- Introductory electronics and troubleshooting
