Congratulations to the winners of the Pet & Passion Challenge!
And welcome to the Snapmaker Test Pilot Program!

Pet and Passion

What's better than enjoying a long summer day than by doing it with your furry friends by your side? This summer, we invite you to join the Snapmaker Pet and Passion Summertime Hangout Video Challenge: Use your Snapmaker to make a pet toy, accessory, or a portrait of your kitty cat to hang on your beachside bungalow - anything to do with your pets! Your creation can be a unique design you made yourself, or something simple that you downloaded off the internet. 3D Printing, Laser Cutting/Engraving, and CNC Carving are all great ways to have fun in the sun with your little furry one! The contest will run from July 17th to August 31st, 11:59pm Hawaii Time.

17 July 2024 - 31 August 2024
