Pixel Forge Session 2

šŸ”„ LEVEL UP YOUR CREATIVITY: Join The Pixel Forge!

Are you tired of just playing games? It's time to BUILD them!

Welcome to The Pixel Forge, the ultimate after-school club where we turn digital ideas into physical, playable, custom gear using 3D printing and design software (Tinkercad).

This club is for designers, gamers, artists, and anyone curious about how cool things are made.

What You'll Do:

  • DESIGN: Learn the secrets of 3D modeling, mastering precision to make perfectly weighted and functional game pieces.
  • PRINT: Watch your creations become real! We'll use 3D printers to bring your digital files into the physical world.
  • PLAY: We'll use your custom creations—from epic custom chess pieces and unique pawns to perfectly balanced dice—in actual tournaments and games.

No Experience? No Problem!

NO prior experience in modeling or printing is required. We start from the absolute beginning. All you need is your imagination and a desire to create something awesome.

The only qualification is your interest!

Signup for Pixel Forge will go live on Wednesday, 2/4 @7pm
