Save the planet with a 3D printed action figure of YOU!

Home: California, United States

Itemfarm will be 3D scanning attendees and printing figurines from biodegradeable or post-consumer plastic waste. Stop by, get 3D scanned, and help as Maker Faire and Itemfarm build a post-waste future! It will be a fun, enlightening, and educational step showing how Itemfarm is helping every community make what it needs locally from materials that would otherwise go to landfills. Your family will love this hands-on experience, leaving with a personalized keepsake. Stop by, get scanned, and join us in envisioning a post-waste world.
