November 3D Printing Meetup on Nov 18th: Print the AI-Generated Model Challenge!
Email body
Hey everyone!
Thanks to everyone who came out to our October meetup and brought objects to test our photo-to-CAD workflow. We are back on our regular third-Wednesday schedule for November.
You can check the full schedule and challenge details at www.fargo3d.com.
Date: Wednesday, November 18th, 2026
Time: 6:00 to 8:00 PM
Location: West Fargo Public Library, 215 Third St. E., West Fargo, ND 58078
John will kick things off with industry news, followed by show and tell, a follow-up on building CAD with AI, and judging for our November print challenge.
Special session: Building CAD with AI follow-up
Last month we tested an AI agent skill that generates 3D models from photos. This month we will look at how the generated model actually prints on different machines and talk through what worked and what needed cleanup. If you have another object you want to try converting from photos to CAD, bring it along.
November challenge: Print the AI-generated model
We are posting the 3D model we generated with AI during the October meetup in the Fargo 3D Discord. For this month's challenge, download the file from Discord, print your own version of it at any size, and bring it to the November 18th meetup.
Challenge guidelines:
- Grab the file on Discord. Download the AI-generated model from the Fargo 3D Discord, or generate your own model with AI.
- Print it at any scale. Scale it up as big as your build volume allows, shrink it down to a miniature test print, or keep it at 100% scale.
- No AI model? Bring a cool print. If you do not have an AI-created object printed in time, bring any cool print you have been working on so you can still join in.
- Bring it on November 18th. Bring your physical print to the meetup and tell us how it printed, what scale and material you picked, and how your slicer handled it.
Voting and prizes
- Everyone at the meetup votes on their favorite print of the model based on print quality, scale, material choice, and execution.
- The winner takes home a free spool of filament.
See you on Wednesday, November 18th at 6:00 PM!
