# Current Challenge: Bring an Experiment
# Current Challenge: Bring an Experiment (Round 2!)
## Challenge: Bring an Experiment
For this month, we challenge you to try something new, crazy, or wild! Bring in an experiment. It can be anything from simple cubes to complex prints. The goal is simply to push boundaries and try something you haven't done before.
Due to the huge success of our last challenge and the awesome influx of new people, we are running **Bring an Experiment** again! We want even more of you to bring in your experiments. These can even be completely failed prints—remember, as 3D Printers, we love spaghetti!!
