About the Workshop
Solitary bees are different from honey and bumble bees as they do not belong to a hive. They work individually and burrow in holes. Although solitary bees are the most efficient pollinators, they are also the most endangered due to deforestation.
If you want to learn more about solitary bees and also learn how to create a sustainable 3D printed beehouse, then you can join Jamie-Lee for a step-by-step design workshop.
What you’ll learn:
What solitary bees are and why they are important
How to use Fusion 360 to model and personalise your design
How to use Fusion 360 to render your designs in a realistic setting
Who’s this for?
This workshop is intended for individuals who are interested in delving into the world of 3D
