I likely would have missed this, if it had not been for a tagged comment from my friend Abby Brown. My Solar Eclipse Necklace, originally designed for the 2017 totality in North America, made an appearance on the Thingiverse Instagram. I also wore it for the 2024 totality and I hope to sport it again in 2027. My family and I eyeing a trip to Egypt!

But five years ago, I brought the show’s very first 3D Printing booth. I continued to represent 3D Printing again this year for the show’s 50th Anniversary. I managed to sneak into coverage of the show by InsideNova.
