Rapid Prototyping Lab
Hope Chambers was a key member in starting the first Rapid Prototyping Lab in south-west Oklahoma. Because of her previous knowledge of Autodesk Inventor, Solid Works (computer-aided design applications) and 3D printers Hope was asked to advise the largest career technology school in south-west Oklahoma with their Rapid Prototyping Lab and with 3D printer maintenance. Hope is also planning on teaching Solid Works and 3D printing operations to others in the community so they can explore the interesting world of product design and fabrication. Because of Hope’s connection to the Prototyping Lab, she is contracted by Cosmetic Specialty Labs which is a company that produces custom formulations and finished cosmetic products for several major retailers. For Cosmetic Specialty Labs Hope is currently designing and 3D printing customized bath bomb molds and will soon start production of her product.
