About Marco
Hi, I’m Marco, a dedicated 3D printing designer and maker with real-world experience in both FDM and resin printing.
I don’t just teach 3D printing — I use it professionally to design, prototype, and produce detailed miniatures and functional products. My experience includes product design, troubleshooting complex printer issues, optimizing slicer settings, and achieving consistent, high-quality results.
Over time, I’ve learned that most frustrations in 3D printing come from small misunderstandings — bed leveling issues, incorrect temperatures, poor support placement, or slicer misconfiguration. My goal is to help you understand your machine and software properly so you can print confidently and independently.
I work with students patiently and practically, focusing on real solutions instead of theory overload. Whether you're setting up your first printer or refining your workflow to produce professional-quality results, I will guide you step by step.
You can expect:
Clear, structured lessons
Honest, practical advice
Real troubleshooting experience
Professional insight from someone actively working in the field
3D printing can feel overwhelming at first — but with the right guidance, it becomes an incredibly powerful and rewarding skill.
If you're ready to stop guessing and start printing with confidence, I look forward to working with you.

My Teaching Methodology & What Makes Me Different
I teach 3D printing from real-world experience — not just theory.
As an active designer and printer working with both FDM and resin systems, I focus on practical skills that students can immediately apply. My approach is hands-on, problem-solving driven, and customized to each student’s goals.
Rather than overwhelming students with technical jargon, I break complex concepts into simple, logical steps. Whether it’s bed leveling, slicer settings, support placement, troubleshooting failed prints, coding macros and commands for Klipper/Marlin, I teach you how to understand why things work — not just which buttons to press.
What makes me unique:
Real commercial experience designing and printing products
Strong troubleshooting skills (fixing failed prints, calibration, quality improvement)
Experience with miniatures, hobby models, and functional parts
Focus on helping students become independent and confident
Practical advice on turning 3D printing into a side business
Languages
I teach fluently in:
English
Semi fluent in Portuguese
Lessons can be adjusted depending on the student’s comfort level and technical background.
What to Expect From a Typical Lesson
Each lesson is structured but flexible, depending on your experience level and goals.
A typical lesson may include:
Printer setup and calibration guidance
Slicer walkthrough (profiles, supports, quality tuning)
Troubleshooting common print failures
Design basics in Autodesk Fusion 360 (if applicable)
Live problem-solving using your own printer or models
Tips to improve print quality immediately
Students can expect clear explanations, practical demonstrations, and step-by-step guidance. I also provide actionable advice you can implement right away.
If you already own a printer, we will work directly with your machine and settings.
My lessons are ideal for:
Beginners
First-time printer owners
People struggling with setup and calibration
Anyone overwhelmed by slicer settings
Hobbyists
Miniature painters
Model railway enthusiasts
Tabletop gamers
Cosplay prop makers
Intermediate Users
People wanting cleaner prints
Those struggling with consistency
Users wanting to design their own parts
Entrepreneurs
Anyone wanting to start selling prints
People wanting to improve product quality
Creators looking to optimize workflow and reduce failures
No prior experience is required for beginners. For advanced students, lessons can go deeper into optimization, workflow efficiency, and product-focused printing.
