Meet Stuart! - Fixie's new Senior 3D Print Technician
Fixie is excited to share that Stuart Marshall joined us this month from the Royal College of Art where he was Technical Instructor of Additive Manufacturing.
Lee and Michelle have both worked with Stuart in the past and are delighted to have him join Fixie’s Team as a Senior 3D Print Technician. Stuart will be leading the expansion of our Technician team and supporting our immersive R&D projects.
Stuart has been working in the 3D print industry for the last 7 years across a diverse range of areas including architecture, product design and art. He’s worked both on commercial projects and within the educational sector. This experience has seen him get to know a lot of different technologies having the opportunity to print across a multitude of machines. He started his 3D printing journey in ColourJet powder printing (CJP), moving on to Stereolithography (SLA) printing and more recently he had been working with wax printers, Polyjet and FDM.
Beyond 3D printing, he’s well-versed in the world of 3D scanning, having used laser and structured light scanners. This led him to be involved in scanning artefacts for the V&A Museum to display in their Cast Courts gallery.
Stuart comes from a product design background, which is where he developed his initial CAD knowledge. His skills have developed across the sector as he’s thrown himself into a wide range of digital processes experimenting with scanning, animation and VR. As he says:
“I’m always looking for new developments in digital modelling and how I can then incorporate these techniques into my professional and personal work.”
Outside of work he’s a keen maker and always has a project on the go. The fact that he’ll try his hand at anything comes through in the multitude of processes he explores from woodwork and whittling to building electronic circuits - anything that expands his knowledge of production. He also enjoys visiting art galleries, a good hike, and his true passion; video games!
Great to have you onboard Stuart. If you are interested in a position with Fixie or know of anybody who would like to work with us please pass on our details careers@fixie3d.com.
