Autodesk Acquires Tinkercad

Published:  May 18, 2013    Category:  2D Graphics, 3D Graphics, Design, Hardware, Software,    Published by:  GriT  
Tinkercad allows you to quickly turn an idea into a CAD model for a 3D printer. This acquisition actually makes sense for Autodesk given their software portfolio. One can hope that with Autodesk's backing, we can all get onboard the 3D printing train...that is, hopefully that we can all afford 3D printers for home use, along with the assortment of materials that'll allow us to print to our heart's content. Until someone develops the replicator from Star Trek TNG. Side note: no mention of how much Autodesk bought Tinkercad for.
