Many school makerspaces include 3D printers. They are great tools for exploring new ideas. Our Engineering Education group has a publicly shared collection of interesting 3D-printable accessories, some designed by us and some by classroom teachers, on our Thingiverse<\/a> webpage.<\/p>\n

Thingiverse is a online repository to collect and share 3D-printable designs. Among the collections on our page, you’ll find a variety of designs you can print to use with your Vernier sensors and equipment. For instance, you’ll find an extra mass tray for our DTS carts (Standard Cart<\/a> (DTS-CART-S<\/nobr>)), a widget that centers a burette above a Drop Counter (Drop Counter<\/a> (VDC-BTD<\/nobr>)), and the wind turbine nose cones used in the Spring 2016 Caliper article “Can Adding a Nose Cone Improve Turbine Efficiency?”<\/a><\/p>\n

The links below will take you to each collection; we have also listed a few example accessories from each collection.<\/p>\n
