Creating 3D models is extraordinarily time-consuming and computing resource-intensive. While much of the time spent creating 3D models may be user-active time on the system, time the system spends in rendering the model may also be significant.

Creating 3D models is extraordinarily time-consuming and computing resource-intensive. The learning curve is ''steep''. While much of the time spent creating 3D models may be user-active time on the system, time the system spends in rendering the model may also be significant.

Questions: If the intent is to install Rhino on one of the machines in the 3D printing area, does the system allow 3D printing to happen in the background while someone is using Rhino? Or can Rhino render in the background while someone is actively setting up a 3D print job?

Suggestion: If there is a real desire to have a 3D workstation available at PS1, please consider purchasing a machine that is prioritized for 3D modeling. This will reduce member frustration, as it will both avoid resource conflict with existing systems, and be easier to use in that it is more responsive and renders faster.
