Construct3D 2017

Come see the CoLab Studio in Duke's Technology Engagement Center.  Duke Staffers will be opening the doors 30 minutes prior to the popular Rhino and Fusion 360 workshops that will also be happening in the same facility.  The recently renovated studio houses sixty-five digital fab systems including 3D printers, laser cutters and milling machines and serves as Duke’s makerspace.  This walk in tour is a great opportunity to poke around and get ideas for your own campus spaces or meet Duke staff members responsible for managing the facility.

Limited seating will be available on shuttles to assist people transiting back and forth from the JB Duke Hotel.  The facility is located on Duke’s west campus at 12 Telecom Drive, Durham NC 27708 for users choosing to walk here from the hotel.  For walkers and selfie opportunities, you will pass through the lovely West Campus and in front of the iconic Duke University Chapel on your way to and from the conference venue.
